Residents Affected - Some
went in the room and the unit was turned off, so he turned it back on and said that it was okay. When asked
if the residents voiced that it was 'okay' she stated that she was not aware if it was 'okay' as voiced by the
residents or based on Maintenance opinion.
During an interview and environmental tour, on 08/24/23 11:25 AM, accompanied by the Regional Director
of Environmental and Maintenance and the Housekeeping and Laundry Director, when the concern was
brought to the attention of the Regional Director of Environmental and Maintenance, he stated, I was not
aware, it is a quad (referring to the room being designed to have 4 residents residing). I am going to add a
mini split to the unit and that should fix the problem. The tonnage of the unit is not appropriate for that room.
4) During an interview on 08/23/23 at 1:48 PM Resident #365 stated, this morning during my bed bath Staff
A, a CNA, (Certified Nursing Assistant) washed me with cold water. The resident stated, I had my bed bath
at 4:30 AM because I was going out of the facility for dialysis, and I had to be at my appointment by 6:30
AM. Resident #365 stated she asked Staff A why her bed bath water was cold and Staff A replied, because
that is all we have to use.
On 08/23/23 at 2:03 PM the Regional Maintenance Director was interviewed concerning the water being
cold at 4:30 AM. The Maintenance Director stated the hot water was turned off at 8:00 AM on 08/23/23. He
stated, he turned the water off because the mixing valve was not working due to calcium buildup in the line.
The hot water was turned off to complete a water flush of the lines. The Regional Maintenance Director
stated, If someone had a bed bath with cold water at 4:30 AM this morning, then someone wasn't running
the water long enough to get the water warm. He stated, there were no problems with the hot water at 4:30
AM.
On 08/23/23 at approximately 2:35 PM the DON was made aware of Resident #365's complaint of the bed
bath being completed with cold water and the interview obtained with the Regional Maintenance Director.
3) An observation of personal care for Resident #106 was made on 08/23/23 beginning at 9:08 AM with
Staff C, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). The CNA washed her hands leaving the water running, donned
gloves, and went to get the basin from the table at the resident's bedside. The surveyor felt the running
water and it was cold to the touch. The CNA returned to the bathroom and filled the basin, and the surveyor
again tested the water in front of the CNA, but did not say anything. The water was still cold. Upon returning
to the resident's bedside, Resident #106 requested his face to be washed. As soon as thr CNA placed the
washcloth onto the resident's face he stated, Oh that's cold. The CNA said something that was inaudible
and continued to wash his face. Staff C continued with the care, utilizing the same basin of cold water, to
include peri-care (washing the resident's private areas).
During an interview after the observation, when asked how the water temperature was for his bath,
Resident #106 stated it was fine. When asked why he said it was cold when his face was washed, the
resident stated because I was cold. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE]
revealed Resident #106 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 9, on a 0 to 15 scale,
indicating he had some cognitive impairment.
The surveyor went immediately into rooms 200 through 206, and upon turning on the hot water faucets in
each bathroom, there was no water.

unit confirmed she knew there was no hot water in room [ROOM NUMBER], as she had washed her hands
earlier that morning, but she was unaware of the lack of hot water in the other rooms.
During an interview on 08/23/23 at 9:35 AM, when asked if there was any current water concerns, the
Maintenance Director stated they were currently flushing out the hot water lines, so there was no hot water
on the 200 unit, but he had relayed the message to management, including the Director of Nursing (DON),
so that staff could provide hot showers in the common shower room on the other unit. The DON was
present at the time of the interview, and when asked if she knew of the water issue on the 200 unit, the
DON stated she had not been informed. The Maintenance Director stated, So there was a communication
issue. The Maintenance Director explained he had identified an emergent concern with the main mixing
valve of the hot water tank, that necessitated the flushing of the lines.
The DON was made aware of the provision of care to Resident #106, using cold water, along with the
resident's comment of Oh, that's cold, and agreed the CNA should have stopped the care.

#76. The SSD stated that just yesterday the resident agreed to a lock box for his room. When asked about
any credit/debit card issues, the SSD reported that months ago the resident had a credit card that he
couldn't access. When asked about any missing credit cards, the SSD stated she would have to review the
grievances. Review of the Grievance Log at that time lacked any description of missing credit/debit cards.
Review of the grievance dated 05/15/23 documented missing clippers, club crackers, Little [NAME] buddy's,
Little [NAME] donut sticks, popcorn, and missing debit cards. The resolution dated 05/30/23 was that the
clippers were found. Other listed items were ordered from a local store and scheduled for delivery. The
Social Worker assisted the resident in replacing missing debit cards.
Review of the grievance dated 08/22/23 documented that debit cards, snacks, and a cell phone charger
were reported missing by the resident. The resolution dated 08/22/23 was to have Activities keep his
snacks in their office and the staff to be educated on using the resident's personal belongings. The
resolution for this grievance lacked any mention of the debit cards.
During an interview on 08/24/23 at 8:55 AM, during a side-by-side review of the 05/15/23 grievance, the
SSD reported the missing debit cards were found in the residents pockets when they did the laundry. The
SSD also stated Resident #76 went to her office and staff reordered the cards for him. The SSD agreed this
information was not documented on the grievance forms. When asked if the credit/debit cards, that went
missing while the resident was at dialysis, was reported to any State Agency or law enforcement, the SSD
stated it was not. When asked if she did any type of investigation, to include any witness statements from
staff, the SSD stated she would need to check with nursing.
As of the Exit Conference conducted on 08/24/23, no evidence of an investigation into the missing cards
had been provided.

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interview and record review, the facility failed to complete a Level II PASSAR (Preadmission
Screening and Resident Review) for 1 of 1 sampled residents reviewed, as required according to the
information documented on the resident's Level I PASSAR Screening (Resident #54).
Residents Affected - Few
The findings included:
Resident #54 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included Dementia, Anxiety
Disorder, Chronic Psychosis, and Bipolar II Disorder.
A review of Resident #54's Level I PASSAR indicates in Section I that this resident had Mental Illness
related to diagnoses of Anxiety Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Depressive Disorder, and Mood Affective
Disorder.
In Section II of the Level I PASSAR, it is documented that Resident #54 has a secondary diagnosis of
Dementia and the Primary Diagnosis is a Serious Mental Illness. According to the directions listed on the
PASARR worksheet, a Level II should be completed if the individual has a primary or secondary diagnosis
of Dementia, or related neurocognitive disorder, and a suspicion or diagnosis of a Serious Mental Illness,
Intellectual Disability, or both. A Level II PASRR may only be terminated by the Level II PASRR evaluator in
accordance with 42 CFR 483.128(m)(2)(i) or 42 CFR 483,128(m)(2)(ii).
Section III of PASSR worksheet documents this is not a Provisional Admission.
Section IV of PASSR worksheet documents the individual may be admitted to a Nursing Facility because
there was no diagnosis or suspicion of Serious Mental Illness or Intellectual Disability indicated. Level II
PASRR evaluation not required. This statement is not correct based on the previous information contained
in Sections I, II, and II. This Form was completed by the Social Services Director on 10/12/22.
On 08/23/23 at 9:19 AM, an interview was conducted with the Social Services Director (SSD) regarding the
Level I PASSAR for Resident #54. She stated she would research to check the status of the Level II
PASSAR. She thought she had initiated a Level II, but wasn't sure.
On 08/23/23 at 10:21 AM, the SSD stated, I cannot find any documentation that a Level II was completed.
The Level I PASRR worksheet was reviewed with the SSD, and she was shown the statement outlining the
requirements for the Level II PASSAR. The SSD acknowledged that Resident #54 met the requirements for
a Level II PASSAR to have been initiated.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure appropriate care and
services were provided for 1 of 1 sampled residents with an indwelling urinary catheter, (Resident #106)
who was diagnosed with two urinary tract infections (UTIs), while residing at the facility.
The findings included:
Review of the policy titled, Urinary Catheter Care dated September 2014 documented, Purpose: The
purpose of this procedure is to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Maintaining
Unobstructed Urine Flow . 3. The urinary drainage bag must be held or positioned lower than the bladder at
all times to prevent the urine in the tubing and drainage bag from flowing back into the urinary bladder.
Infection Control . 2b. Be sure the catheter tubing and drainage bag are kept off the floor. Steps in the
Procedure . 3. fill the wash basin one-half full of warm water. 7. Wash the resident's genitalia and perineum
thoroughly with soap and water. Rinse the area well and towel dry. 8. Pour wash water down the commode.
This policy continues to instruct staff to then cleanse the urinary catheter from the insertion site outward.
Review of the record revealed Resident #106 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with an urinary
drainage device. The resident pulled out the drainage device on 07/20/23, and it was replaced on 07/26/23
due to difficulty in urinating. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE],
documented the use of the indwelling catheter, needing the extensive assistance of one staff to care for the
catheter, and no UTI in the past 30 days.
Review of the orders revealed the initiation of antibiotics for Resident #106 related to UTIs on 07/27/23 and
08/21/23.
During an interview on 08/21/23 at 10:48 AM, the adult son of Resident #106 explained his father had a
UTI along with treatment for the UTI at the hospital. The son stated his father was admitted to the facility
with an urinary catheter, it came out, and was put back, as his father was unable to urinate. The son
explained the facility added an antibiotic to his father's medications as he had another UTI.
During an observation of Resident #106 on 08/22/23 at 10:20 AM, it was noted that the urinary drainage
bag was lying entirely on the floor, along with part of the catheter tubing (Photographic Evidence Obtained).
During an observation on 08/23/23 at 9:08 AM, Staff C, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), obtained cold
water from the bathroom faucet and filled the water basin. The water was felt by the surveyor and Resident
#106 voiced it was cold. Staff C proceeded to wash the resident's face, underarms, indwelling catheter
tubing from the insertion site outward, peri-area (private area), and buttock, in that order. Although the CNA
did use numerous wash clothes throughout the process, the CNA used the same basin of water for the
entire process.
During a wound care observation on 08/23/23 at 10:22 AM, upon entering the room with the wound care
physician, Resident #106's tubing for the indwelling urinary catheter was observed coming out of the
bottom of the adult diaper, and then out the top of the shorts above the waist level, allowing

A review of Resident #54's Care Plan, completed on 06/27/23, documented, .at risk for malnutrition,
receives a therapeutic diet .recent significant weight loss. Wt flux noted since admission. No other
interventions noted.
The dietary orders in place for Resident #54 were:
1) NCS/NAS diet Regular texture, Regular Fluid consistency, Fortified Foods with all meals (01/05/23)

(03/20/23)
3) Health Shake with meals for Prevention of Malnutrition 4 oz three times a day with all meals (08/18/23)
The first 2 orders were put into place before the severe weight loss occurred from 05/02/23 to 08/07/23.
These interventions were not working because severe weight loss occurred after their institution. There
were no changes to the interventions after 05/02/23 until 08/23/23.
Observations of Resident #54 during lunch meal at approximately 12:30 PM each day were as follows:
On 08/21/23, Resident #54 sent her lunch meal back and told them she only wanted a ham sandwich. The
Health Shake was also sent back. Resident consumed her sandwich independently without assistance.
On 08/23/23, Resident #54 sent her lunch meal back and requested a sandwich. Resident consumed her
sandwich independently without assistance. It was unknown if her health shake was consumed during her
meal.

This resident (Resident #54) always sends her tray back and asks for a sandwich. She didn't drink her
health shake. She said she didn't want it. Staff documented in CNA Tasks in electronic records that
Resident drank 50% of health shake for lunch on 08/23/23.
However record review revealed, on 08/24/23, Resident #54 sent her lunch back. She told CNA that she
didn't want it. The lady sitting with her at the table said, Why do you always complain about your meal
without trying it. It is really good. You never eat what is brought to you. When the resident received her
sandwich, she ate it without any assistance. Resident was not seen consuming the health shake.

Resident with previous edema and diuretic. Weight loss is likely related to the resident's variable PO intake.
Nutrition interventions put into place are mirtazapine with appetite stimulant side effects to promote
additional PO intake on 1/6/23 and house supplement BID (twice daily) on 7/13/22, increased to nutritional
treat TID on 3/20/23, but adjusted to health shakes TID on 8/18/23 d/t formulary adjustments and fortified
foods on 1/5/23 with meals to supplement kcal/protein needs with suboptimal PO intake.
Residents Affected - Few
The RD was informed that the Resident was prescribed or given diuretics from May 1 - August 23, 2023
and had no diagnoses of edema. The RD response on 08/24/23 at 4:51 PM, After further review, the
previous diuretic regimen was discontinued at the end of April, however, with a diagnosis of CHF
(Congestive Heart Failure), weight fluctuations continue to be anticipated and are not uncommon for her.
The RD added, Food preferences were discussed [Resident] during each assessment and her intake of
meals and supplements continued to be monitored to supplement intake and promote weight stability,
which didn't warrant any further interventions at the time.
After response from the RD, it was still noted that the problem remained that there were no assessments
and updated interventions documented after severe weight loss from May to June, and then from June until
08/07/23. Also, after severe weight loss from May 2023 to June 2023, no weekly weights were instituted to
monitor weight loss more closely. Even after a 12.9% weight loss noted on 08/07/23, no weekly weights
have been instituted.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review and interview, the facility failed to ensure a complete record for 1 of 6 sampled residents
reviewed for nutrition. Specifically, Resident #55 had a nurse witnessed concern with a subsequent referral
to therapy, and the record lacked any documentation of the event or follow through.
The findings included:
During an interview on 08/21/23 at 4:08 PM, Resident #55 voiced concern about an incident from the
previous week, when she had trouble when she choked on hard rice. The resident stated she walked over
to the therapy room during the incident, but nobody would hit her on the back to dislodge the food.
Review of the record revealed Resident #55 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the Minimum
Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented Resident #55 had a Brief Interview for Mental
Status (BIMS) score of 15, on a 0 to 15 scale, indicating the resident was cognitively intact. Review of the
orders revealed a regular diet with a regular texture and fluid consistency. Further review of the record
lacked any documented evidence of the incident described by Resident #55.
During an interview on 08/23/23 at 1:02 PM, when asked if she had ever worked with Resident #55, the
Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) stated the resident was screened upon admission to the facility, but
was not picked up on her caseload, as she recalled. When asked if she was aware of a coughing/choking
incident with Resident #55 while eating rice recently, the SLP stated the resident had an isolated issue with
rice last week, she waited for her (the resident) to clear it, and watched her during that time. The SLP
further stated she was going to screen her again on Monday, but I saw she was scheduled to leave on
Thursday. The SLP confirmed she did not do a screen or evaluation. When asked how she was made aware
of the incident, the SLP stated Staff D, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) brought it to her attention.
During an interview on 08/23/23 at 1:22 PM, when asked if she recalled a coughing or choking incident with
Resident #55, Staff D, LPN, stated that last week she saw Resident #55 standing in the bathroom coughing
and trying to make herself throw up. The nurse stated the resident told her it happens at home at times. The
nurse stated she told the SLP about it so she could do an evaluation. When asked if she wrote a note about
the incident, the nurse stated she did not, stating she wasn't choking, she was just coughing and trying to
make herself throw up. Staff D confirmed she verbally told the speech therapist, and did not fill out any type
of form or referral for a screening or evaluation.
During an interview on 08/23/23 at 1:42 PM, when asked if he was aware of an incident of coughing or
choking on rice by Resident #55 the previous week, the Director of Therapy services was unaware of the
incident. When told that a nurse brought it to the attention of the SLP an incident with Resident #55 that
included coughing and trying to make herself throw up, and that the SLP stated she did not follow up with
an evaluation on Monday because the resident was leaving on Thursday, the Director of Therapy had no
explanation, and agreed that a screening should have been completed.
During an interview on 08/23/23 at 2:04 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) agreed with the lack of
documentation by Staff D, LPN.

Have the Quality Assessment and Assurance group have the required members and meet at least quarterly
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
Based on observation, interview, review of Quality Assessment and Assurance (QA&A) meeting sign-in
sheets, and QA&A Committee Membership, the QA&A committee failed to ensure documented evidence of
the participation of 2 of 3 mandated members of the committee, were in attendance at their monthly
meetings (the Medical Director and Administrator or other individual in a leadership role).
Residents Affected - Some
The findings included:
Review of the QAA Committee membership documentation revealed the QAA committee meets monthly.
During an interview on 08/24/23 at 1:49 PM, the Assistant Nursing Home Administrator (NHA), who was
accompanied by the NHA, was asked to locate and provide the last three QAA Committee Meeting Sign-in
Sheets.
Review of the 07/27/23 Meeting Sign-in Sheet lacked evidence of participation by the NHA, Assistant NHA,
and the Medical Director. The NHA explained that she and the Assistant NHA were at a conference. Review
of the 06/29/23 Meeting Sign-in Sheet lacked documented evidence of the NHA and the Medical Director.
The NHA took the sheet and signed it as a late entry dated 08/24/23, and stated, I was there. That's my
handwriting on the top of the sheet, referring to the date and the word QAPI. Review of the 05/31/23
Meeting Sign-in Sheet also lacked the signature of the Medical Director and the NHA, although the
Assistant NHA was identified. The NHA again signed the sheet as a late entry.
When asked how often the QA&A meetings were held, the Assistant NHA stated once monthly, usually on
the forth Thursday of each month. When asked if the Medical Director attends the monthly QA&A meetings,
the NHA stated he did, but agreed to the lack of documented evidence.
