Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to provide a safe environment free of potential
accidents and hazards for all residents residing in the facility by failing to implement the facility's policy
related to accident and hazards for five (Resident #57,Resident #68, Resident #47, Resident #112 and
Resident #150) out of 45 residents sampled in the facility; as evidence by: 1) Resident #57's side rail
padding was observed on the outer side of the bed rail 2) a bladed box cutter was a observed on Resident

no safety floor mat to the right side of the bed and 5) a pack of cigarettes observed in Resident #150's pant
pocket. These deficient practices increase the risk of accidents, hazards and fires that could cause serious
harm, serious injuries or even fatalities. There were 169 residents residing in the facility at the time of the
survey. The findings include.
Resident #57

Interview on 08/13/2025 at 03:13 PM the Director of Nursing (DON) stated Side rail padding is in place for
a resident with a seizure diagnosis to ensure safety. Nurse managers oversee the unit, while restorative
staff occasionally conduct assessments. The current side rail paddings are loose because the straps are
not secured close enough to the rails, and the pads are incorrectly positioned on the outside of the railing.
The team is exploring better product options. There have been no incidents where the paddings failed to
protect the patient during a seizure. An order is not required for side rail padding, as its use is based on
nursing judgment.
Interview on 08/14/2025 at 02:43 PM with Staff K, Registered Nurse (RN) stated Yes, my patient has side
rail padding. The straps should be secured properly to keep the padding in place. The purpose of the pads
is to protect the patient from injury. With the padding on, three side rails should be up and one down. I make
sure the padding is secure by checking that all straps are tight and correctly positioned.
Record Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Bed Safety & Bedrails 07/08/2024 indicate:
f. Siderails may be padded for safety and/or appropriate diagnosis e.g. seizure.
Resident #68

Evidence)
On 08/11/2025 at 10:53 AM, the Charge Nurse was notified and stated: Oh wow, I can't believe he has that.
He has been told many times that he is not supposed to have those types of items with him, but he does
not listen. The Charge Nurse then removed the box cutter
Record Review of Resident #68’s demographic face sheet revealed the resident was admitted on
[DATE] with diagnosis that included, but not limited to Quadriplegia, C5-C7 incomplete.
Record Review of Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) reference dated 07/03/25 revealed Resident #68 is
cognitively intact and has impairment to both sides of upper/lower extremities and used a wheelchair.
Record Review of a Care Plan with start date 10/15/2024, last revised on 08/11/2025 revealed Resident
#68 had episodes of anger, inappropriate/behavioral symptoms, and becomes angry or upset with staff
when providing care. Resident #68 also keeps items such as scissors and cutter inside his room for his
personal use. Goal: Resident #68's episode of anger/refusal of care/treatment will decrease through next
review date and possible consequences/outcomes of non-compliance. Approach: Educate Resident #68 on
safety concerns on facility policies.
Interview on 08/12/2025 at 12:46 PM, Resident #68 was asked about the box cutter found in room;
Resident # 68 stated: I know I am not supposed to have a box cutter or any type of sharp objects in my
room, but I use it to cut my plants in the patio. I bought the box cutter about a month ago when I was out on
day pass and I've been using it ever since. Last time I used it was four days ago in the patio, and no one
said anything to me, I guess no one saw me.

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
observations, record review and interviews, the facility failed to properly position an indwelling urinary
tubing to facilitate the flow of urine for one (Resident #46) out of one sampled resident with an indwelling
urinary catheter, as evidenced by Resident #46's indwelling catheter tubing was positioned above bladder
and kinked. This deficient practice prevented the free flowing of urine that would be accumulated in the
bladder causing discomfort and increasing the risk for catheter-associated urinary tract infections and other
serious medical issues. There were four residents with indwelling urinary catheters residing in the facility at
the time of this survey.The findings include.During an observation on 8/11/25 at 1:01 PM, Resident #46 was
standing in his room, a tubing was observed protruding from the top of the Resident's shorts and into a
drainage bag that was anchored on the walker (photo evidence). Resident #46 revealed he had an
indwelling urinary catheter and complained of blood in the urine. Upon further observation the tubing was
kinked, and urine did not appear to be flowing freely. On 8/11/25 at 1:05 PM, Staff J, Licensed Practical
Nurse (LPN) was notified of the identified concern. Staff J, LPN completed hand hygiene, put on required
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and readjusted the tubing so it would no longer be kinked.Interview
on 8/11/25 at 1:15 PM, Staff J, LPN stated, [Resident #46] has an indwelling urinary catheter that I flush
with water daily. I have not flushed it today. This morning the catheter was not kinking because the resident
was wearing a gown. I readjusted the tubing, and I educated the resident.Record review of a demographic
sheet revealed Resident #46 was initially admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnosis that
included: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract symptoms note: BPH with Obstructive
Uropathy and Urinary Tract Infection.Record review of a Significant Change in Status Minimum Data Set
(MDS) referenced dated 7/30/25 revealed Resident 46 had no cognitive impairment and required
supervision or touching assistance for toileting hygiene and an indwelling catheter.Record review of a Care
Plan started on 8/4/25, last reviewed/revised on 8/11/25 revealed Resident #46 requires an indwelling
urinary catheter related Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with Obstructive Uropathy, noted unclamping catheter
leg holder and touching his Indwelling catheter at times with approaches that included: resident to not
play/touch his Indwelling catheter to avoid dislodgement and/or infection. Reeducate resident not to touch
indwelling catheter and to keep it below the level of bladder (resident noted to place catheter above the
level).Record review of a July 2025 physician's order sheet revealed [indwelling urinary catheter] care as
needed, normal saline flush 30 ml (milliliters) every shift.Interview on 8/13/25 at 3:06 PM, the Director of
Nursing revealed for a resident with an indwelling urinary catheter, the best method for positioning is to
secure the tubing to the thigh and the bag should be positioned downward because back flow can cause an
infection. The Surveyor asked the Director of Nursing (DON) if there was any policy pertaining to the proper
positioning of an indwelling urinary catheter and the DON stated: No.On 8/14/25at 2:13 PM, the Registered
Nurse, Infection Preventionist revealed ways to prevent Urinary Tract infections in residents with indwelling
urinary catheters include positioning the catheter tubing below the level of the bladder.Record review of a
policy titled, Urinary Catheter Care dated 6/26/15 revealed POLICY: Catheter care is done by the nurse or
nursing assistant routinely twice daily on all residents/patients with indwelling catheters.
