The other day Staff O was upset with me because my colostomy bag had burst and spilt onto my gown.
Resident #323 explained that a social worker who came in her room at the moment the Resident's gown
was dirty did her the favor of placing the dirty gown in the bathroom near the trash; she continued to state
that afterwards Staff O had gotten upset with her and told her she was being messy and dirty for leaving
the gown there. Resident #323 stated she told Staff O that it wasn't her who placed the gown there and

5/05/25 at 10:21 AM, when asked if they were being treated with dignity and respect, the Resident stated
Some staff are moody, arrogant, and nasty. When asked what shift this mostly happened on and what type
of staff it was, the Resident stated that it happened in both shifts and was the CNAs. The Resident stated
they were not revealing any names due to fear of retaliation.
During a follow up interview on 05/06/25 at 12:31 PM when asked if the staff were still being mean to her,
the anonymous Resident stated that she didn't t know why the CNAs don't treat her with respect, They
should treat me how I treat them.

regarding multiple Resident complaints of mean CNAs. All of Resident's #323's concerns were presented to
the DON she stated she was not aware this had been going on and would take care of it. The DON asked
the surveyor to present findings to the regional nurses in the facility; both regional nurses were made aware
and agreed that should not have happened.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 9:34 AM when asked what would you do if a Resident told you that a
CNA was being mean to them (yelling, calling them a liar, always in a bad mood; rude) the Social Service

away. I asked the Business Office Manager, Can you tell me what I'm getting every month. She continued to
walk away. About a week ago the Business Office Manager came to me again in the dining room with $160
cash in an envelope and I also noticed that she had some other money rolled up in her hand. I told her that
I would like a paper stating she gave the money to me, and I told her that I would like a statement or
something from social security. The Business Office Manager got very nasty and stated, I tell you what, I'll
give you $40 more and it will make it $200, she had $40 more in her hand. I still wanted some
documentation. I asked, what happened to the other months? The Business Office Manager got very upset
and stated, all you had to do was come to my office and get the money. Then she snatched the other
money from the table and stated I guess you don't want the money. Again, I told her I wanted something
showing she gave me the money and a statement about my social security. She left, then later, the
Business Office Manager came back with a piece of paper, and she got very loud with me while she was
trying to explain what was on the paper. I asked, Shouldn't you talk to me in my room instead of in front of
all these other people? The Business Office Manager stated, these people don't care about what I say to
you. She aggressively gave me the form to sign. I told her that I would like to get my funds on a card like
everyone else does.
During an interview on 05/06/25 at 11:09 AM, when asked do you recall mentioning yesterday that you
overheard a conversation in the dining room with another resident and the Business Office Manager,
Resident #56, stated Yes, the Business Office Manager confronted Resident #94 from next door because
he wanted his social security statements. The Business Office Manager was very loud. It's a conversation
that should have been done in private.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 12:20 PM, when asked have you had any conversations with Resident
#94 regarding his social security funds, the Business Office Manger stated, Yes, when he came here, he
didn't even have a place to stay and was not receiving any assistance. I helped him apply for assistance
and insurance. Resident #94 just started receiving funds. He started getting income on 1/16/25. He gets
$1183 a month to pay rent, which comes directly to the facility because this is where he lives long term.
When asked, where did the conversations take place with Resident #94, the Business Office Manager
stated, The first time was in his room on 1/25/25 and the second time on 4/25/25 was in the activities area,
which is located in a corner of the dining room. The activities director and social service were present.
When asked was anyone else in the room during the conversation regarding Resident #94 funds, the
Business Office Manager stated, No just the witnesses.
During an interview on 05/07/23 at 5:21 PM, when asked did any conversations occur between you and the
Business Office Manager in your room when you were discussing your finances, Resident #94 stated, No,
she wouldn't come to my room.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 5:34 PM, when asked where they were located when the forms were
signed by Resident #94, the Business Office Manager stated, In the dining room. When she was asked
again where they were located when Resident #94 signed the withdrawal receipt, the Business Office
Manager stated, In the dining room. They were both signed by him in the dining room.

Manager was asked if she was present when Resident # 94 received funds and signed the withdrawal
receipt dated 1/22/25, the Marketing Manager stated, Yes. When asked why she didn't sign as a witness,
the Marketing Manager stated, I don't know.

personal funds, does the resident have to sign for the funds, are witnesses supposed to be present when
funds are exchanged in the form of cash, the Administrator stated Yes there should be two witnesses. A
copy of the withdrawal receipt dated 1/22/25 and the statement landscape dated 4/25/25 was shown to the
Administrator. When asked if the signatures looked the same on both forms, the Administrator stated, No,
while pointing at the statement landscape, this looks more like the resident's signature.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 1:34 PM, the Administrator had presented some documents from the
record of Resident #94, which had his signature on them to show the comparison. The Administrator stated
I agree that the signature on the statement landscape dated 4/25/25 looks more like the signature of the
other documents that Resident #94 have signed before.

Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited
to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and review of housekeeping records, the facility failed to ensure a safe, clean, and
homelike environment for 1 of 4 units ([NAME]) as evidenced by pervasive odors noted on the unit
throughout the survey week and maintenance concerns in the dining room.
The findings included:
1) During an interview on 05/08/25 at 1:29 PM, when asked how she ensures an odor-free environment,
the Housekeeping Manager stated her staff utilize a disinfectant cleaner to wipe down all surfaces, and
during a deep cleaning of a room, all linens and curtains were changed out. When asked the process and
schedule for deep cleaning the rooms, the Housekeeping Manager explained she had a schedule in which
one or two rooms were deep cleaned daily, and when a resident was discharged , that room was also deep
cleaned. When asked if there were any additional considerations for the [NAME] unit, which was the
secured unit for the memory impaired residents, the Housekeeping Manager stated the housekeeper
assigned to that unit remained on the unit the whole day, except during meals, and made continuous
rounds, to ensure cleanliness. When asked if the [NAME] unit was part of the deep cleaning schedule, the
Housekeeping Manager confirmed that unit was on the schedule. The Housekeeping Manager was asked
to provide evidence of the deep cleaning schedule.
The [NAME] unit was comprised of rooms 218 through 233. Review of the monthly Deep Clean Schedule
documented each room in the [NAME] unit was deep cleaned at least monthly. When asked to provide
evidence of the completion of the deep cleaning as per the schedule, the Housekeeping Manager explained
she completed a daily QA (quality assurance) round of one room on every unit. When asked how she
ensures or tracks the completion of the deep cleaned rooms, the Housekeeping Manager stated that one of
the rooms on her audit would be one of the deep cleaned rooms. When asked if she kept any log or
evidence of deep cleaning completion, the Housekeeping Manager stated she did not. Upon second
request to review the QA documentation, on 05/08/25 at approximately 2:30 PM, the information had not
been provided as of the exit conference.
During the survey week of 05/05/25 through 05/08/25 the following was observed and noted:

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to develop and implement a care plan for a resident's
smoking for 1 of 2 residents reviewed for smoking (Resident #31).
The findings included:
The facility's Smoking Policy, with no reference date, documented: Any smoking-related privileges,
restrictions, and concerns (for example, need for close monitoring) shall be noted on the care plan, and all
personnel caring for the resident shall be alerted to these issues.
Resident #31 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. According to the resident's most recent complete
assessment, the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS), with a reference date of 04/5/25, Resident #31 had
a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 09, indicating that the resident was 'moderately'
cognitively impaired. The assessment documented that Resident #31 required partial/moderate assistance
for bed mobility, substantial/maximal assistance for transfers and ambulated via manual wheelchair
independently. Resident #31's diagnoses at the time of the MDS included: Cancer, Fracture, Malnutrition,
Chronic lung disease, Injury of head, Muscle weakness, Abnormal posture, Lack of coordination.
A Smoking evaluation, with a reference date of 05/02/25, documented that the resident required someone
to light/extinguish cigarette and Supervision.
Further review of resident's electronic health record on 05/05/25 at 1:14 PM revealed that there was no
care plan for smoking.
During an interview, on 05/05/25 at 12:04 PM, when asked about smoking, Resident #31 stated that he
smokes occasionally, a couple of times per day.
During an interview, on 05/07/25 at 1:10 PM, the Activities Coordinator confirmed that the resident did
smoke with supervision.
During a follow up interview, on 05/07/25 at 1:26 PM, Resident #31stated that he only smokes when people
that visit him smoke. The resident further stated he is actively trying to quit smoking.
During an interview, on 05/08/25 at 12:06 PM, with the Regional MDS Coordinator, I saw they did the
assessment, and I saw that they did not do a care plan and I in-serviced that if they smoke and complete a
smoking assessment, they need to generate a care plan.

maintain the care of the colostomy bag, Resident #323 stated it was frequently that she had to ask for
replacement bags. The Resident voiced that often her skin around her stoma started to burn due to having
to wait long periods of time.

Central Supply Coordinator stated there was not a shortage and proceeded to show the surveyor the
supply. He stated there were only 2 current residents that required ostomy supplies in the facility; he made
sure the supplies were well stocked. When asked if staff can get into the supply rooms when he was not
there, the Central Supply Coordinator stated that all the nurses have access to both supply rooms.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 8:48 AM, when asked who is responsible for providing colostomy care to
Resident #323, Staff N, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) stated Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) were

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to provide activities designed to meet the
interests of one resident (Resident #84), to promote the psychosocial well-being of that resident. This had
the potential to affect 31 residents in the [NAME] Hall, memory support unit.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings included:
A record review revealed Resident #84 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her history of diagnoses
included Dementia, Mood Disturbance, Anxiety, and Mood Disorder due to Known Physiological Condition.
A review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #84
had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10. This indicated that she had moderate cognitive
impairment. A review of Section E revealed that Resident #84 exhibited no behaviors that quarter.
A review of Resident #84's ongoing care plan initiated 07/30/24 stated that she had a history of trauma; and
she required adequate time to make choices related to her care. One intervention was to provide resident
centered care. A care plan created 07/26/24 said that Resident #84 was dependent on staff for meeting
emotional, intellectual, physical, and social needs. An intervention listed was for staff to provide
assistance/escort to Community Life functions (activities).
During Resident #84's interview on 05/05/25 at 3:18 PM, Resident #84 said that the activities provided
were boring. At that time, residents were watching TV and folding washcloths in the Activity/Dining room.
Resident #84 said she liked crossword puzzles and music. She explained that she used to be a piano
teacher. During a follow-up interview on 05/06/25 at 9:42 AM, Resident #84 wheeled herself through
hallway. She said she wasn't interested in activities in the Activity/Dining room.
During an observation on 05/07/25 at 10:50 AM, Resident #84 was asleep in her wheelchair in the hallway.
On 05/07/25 at 11:03 AM, Resident #84 was asleep in the Activity /Dining room. On 05/07/25 at 1:02 PM,
Resident #84 sat in her wheelchair and another resident pushed her through the hallway. Staff F told the
other resident that she could sit down and Staff F pushed Resident #84 in the hallway.
During interviews with Staff F and Resident #84 on 05/07/25 at 1:07 PM, the surveyor asked which
activities Resident #84 liked. Staff F answered she liked exercise and karaoke. Resident #84 said out loud I
want to go to the piano and check on my students. The surveyor asked Staff F if she heard the comment
made by the resident. Staff F answered, she wants to check on her students; she used to be a music
teacher. Resident #84 repeated that she wanted to go to the piano. Staff F told the surveyor there was a
piano located in the park area which was right outside the locked doors of [NAME] Hall.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 2:04 PM, Staff F was asked if Resident #84 was able to use the piano,
Staff F said that the residents in [NAME] Hall couldn't leave the unit unless they went out with their family or
the therapy department. She added that a few months ago staff used to take the residents out to the park
area, the patio, and outside, but now they needed to stay here (in the locked unit).
During an interview with the evening nurse manager, Staff G, on 05/07/25 at 5:18 PM, the residents used to
go off of the unit but they weren't allowed anymore. She said they got a message that a new

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review and interview, the facility failed to collaborate with Hospice services for 1 of 1 sampled
resident, Resident #95, as evidenced by contradictory code status documentation.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings included:
Review of the record revealed Resident #95 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with a subsequent
admission to Hospice services as of 01/16/25. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated
[DATE] documented the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 3, on a 0 to 15
scale, indicating the resident was cognitively impaired. Review of the same assessment documented the
resident had a terminal diagnosis and was on Hospice services.
Review of the current electronic medical record (EMR) documented Resident #95 had a full code status, as
noted on the banner or general information area of the EMR, meaning cardiopulmonary resuscitation would
be initiated should the resident become unresponsive and without a heartbeat. A current order dated
03/19/25 also documented the Full Code status. The current care plan initiated on 05/22/24, and revised on
03/24/25, also documented the resident was a full code.
Review of the discontinued orders revealed two orders from 01/24/25 through 03/19/25 that documented a
DNR status.
Review of the Hospice paperwork revealed a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order dated 01/16/25.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 2:16 PM, when asked how she would know the code status of a
resident, Staff E, Registered Nurse (RN) stated she would check the banner in the EMR. The RN showed
the surveyor the code status location on the banner of a random resident. When asked the code status for
Resident #95, the RN looked in the EMR and stated the resident was a full code. When shown the DNR
order and form in the Hospice paperwork, the RN was surprised. The RN stated she had never seen that
form for Resident #95. When asked the process should a resident change their code status, the RN stated
she was not sure as she just enters the code status for a resident upon admission to the facility.
Further review of the orders revealed the order to admit Resident #95 to Hospice services was input into
the EMR by Staff H, a Unit Manager. The order for the current DNR status was input into the EMR by the
Director of Nursing (DON).
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 2:40 PM, Staff H, Unit Manager, confirmed she had entered the current
Hospice order. When asked if she reviews the code status with a change to Hospice services, the Unit
Manager stated she did. During a side-by-side review of the Hospice paperwork, when asked why Resident
#95 was not changed to a DNR status as per the DNR form found in the Hospice binder, the Unit Manager
stated the form was not in the binder at that time and they did not have a copy of it anywhere. The Unit
Manager stated they tried to call the daughter who did not answer or return their call. The Unit Manager
also stated they contacted staff at the Hospice provider, who told them they were working on the DNR.
When asked why she had changed the order to a DNR status on 02/07/25, the Unit Manager stated she did
not recall.
When asked why she changed the DNR status for Resident #95 to a full code status on 03/07/25, the

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
record review and interviews, the facility failed to ensure that proper protocol was implemented when a
resident has a fall, as evidenced by not reporting or following up on a fall for Resident #35.
The Findings included:
Record review revealed Resident #35 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum
Data Sheet (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], documented the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental
Status score of 03, on a 0-15 scale, indicating severe cognitive impairment.
During an interview on 05/05/25 at 10:42 AM, Resident # 56 (who is the roommate of Resident #35), stated
My roommate fell out of bed a couple of nights ago, she was trying to change the air conditioner. I had to
call for help and it took them a while to get here. I guess they were busy with someone else. I told Resident
#35 not to move, because I know what can possibly happen if she moves. When asked who got Resident
#35 off the floor, Resident #56 stated Two staff, the nurse and the aide. She fell really hard. I mentioned the
fall to the nurse that worked the next morning. I have spoken to the Administrator and other nurses about
Resident #35, because I think she should be in a different area of the facility, but I'm just told that these are
the type of people we have here.
During an interview on 05/06/25 at 09:06 AM, Resident #56, stated the DON came to me and said why
didn't I tell her my roommate fell. She came in here with another administration staff confronting me. When
asked, do you remember when Resident #35 had fallen, Resident #56 stated last Saturday at around 3:00
AM. When asked who did you report the fall to the next day, Resident #56 stated Staff P, Registered Nurse
(RN).
Review of a fall risk assessment dated [DATE], documented Resident #35 had not had any falls in the past
three months. Further review of the progress notes for Resident #35 failed to reveal any documentation of a
fall during the months of April 2025 or May 2025.
Review of a care plan dated 3/24/25, documented that Resident #35 is at risk for falling related to her
history of impaired mobility function, generalized weakness, impaired cognition with a goal to minimize the
risk of falls.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 11:05 AM, when asked if she knows anything about a fall that Resident
#35 had, Staff P stated No. When asked if Resident #56 reported to her that Resident #35 had a fall last
week, Staff P stated No, who to me. If it was reported to me, I would have to do something. When asked if
the nurse that she received report from reported that Resident # 35 had a fall, Staff P stated, No. When
asked if she worked on Saturday 05/03/25 in the morning, Staff P, stated Yes.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 12:08 PM, when asked did you have any conversations with Resident
#56 about a fall, the DON stated, I'm so sorry I didn't know that Resident #35 had a fall. I asked Resident
#56 about her roommate falling, she couldn't tell me the exact date. One time she said Friday and then she
told the administrator a different date. I have spoken to the nurse that was working the shift the night that
the fall supposedly happened. The nurse that was working said the resident did not fall. When asked what
the staff are supposed to do when a resident falls, the DON stated, Report it in writing. I have started my
investigation with the staff regarding reporting falls.

On 05/06/25 at 10:50 AM, Resident #5 was being provided care by Staff I, CNA. When Staff I was done
providing care to the resident, it was noted that the tube feeding had not been restarted and there was no
supplement in the room.
During an interview, on 05/06/25 at 11:05 AM, with Staff I, when asked about the tube feeding not being
active, Staff I replied, at 2:00 the tube feeding will be put back up. When I came in this morning, the night
nurse (referring to Staff J, RN) took her off of the tube feeding. When I was making my rounds at 7 AM, the
night nurse had already stopped the tube feeding.
On 05/07/25 at 7:23 AM, Resident #5 was observed in bed with tube feeding running at 60 ml/hr. The date
mark on the 1000 ml container documented that it was initiated on 05/06/25 at 1300 (1:00 PM). At the time
of the observation, there was approximately 100 ml of supplement remaining in the 1000 ml container.
During additional observations throughout the day, it was noted that there was no additional supplement
provided to Resident #5 to meet the order for 1200 ml until the next session was implemented.
During an interview, on 05/08/25 at 6:38 AM, with Staff J, RN, when asked about the tube feeding being
stopped as described by Staff I, the RN replied, once the tube feeding is complete at 1200 ml the tube
feeding is stopped until the next dosage. The machine will indicate 1200 ml completed. When asked about
the information in the pump being at zero at the beginning of the dosage, Staff I replied, The pump should
be cleared out at the beginning of the next session. The RN acknowledged that it would have taken 20
hours for the resident to receive the full 1200 ml of the supplement. The RN stated that he does not change
the flow rate during his shift. The RN further stated that the feeding would be paused for up to 15 minutes at
a time for ADL care (ADLs - changing, repositioning, etc.) should the resident require and then started from
that point once the CNAs have completed the ADL care.

assessed after the treatment was over.
During an interview on 05/06/25 at 9:57 AM, when asked how to perform a respiratory assessment, Staff A
stated she would watch for respirations and listened to lung sounds. When asked when she would perform
it, Staff A stated every shift, when you pass meds, and especially if they have a nebulizer treatment. When
asked if there was any reason why she did not perform a respiratory assessment for Resident #54, Staff A
stated that she should have done it but forgot because she was nervous. When asked if other vitals should
have been taken for Resident #54, Staff A stated she should have checked their oxygen level but also
forgot.
Review of the record revealed Staff A had documented assessment of lung sounds and respirations for the
observed medication administration.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 9:08 AM, when asked how to perform a respiratory assessment, the
Director of Nursing (DON) stated that you should listen to lung sounds, measure oxygenation levels and
count for respirations before and after respiratory treatments such as nebulizers and inhalers. The DON
stated she was already aware of the situation with Staff A and agreed she should have performed the
respiratory assessments stated on Resident #54's orders for the nebulizer treatment. The DON also agreed
that the inhaler should have been followed with a mouth rinse and spit as per order.

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to have sufficient staff to intervene when 2
residents (#92, #76) ate or drank from 5 other residents' cups or plates, and when 1 resident who preferred
to remain anonymous, reported that the [NAME] Hall was chaotic on the weekends. This had the potential
to affect 31 residents in the [NAME] Hall, memory support unit.
The findings included:
During an interview conducted on 05/06/25 at 9:20 AM, as a part of the initial screening process, a resident
who wanted to remain anonymous said that [NAME] Hall needed more staff during weekends. She
described the environment on the weekends as chaotic.
A record review revealed that Resident #92 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her medical history
included Alzheimer's Disease, Unspecified Dementia, Anxiety Disorder, Oral Dysphagia, and Cognitive
Communication Deficit. These diagnoses were present on admission. A review of the Minimum Data Set
(MDS) annual assessment dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #92 had severe cognitive impairment. A
review of Section E in the MDS assessment showed no changes in behaviors since the prior quarterly
assessment was conducted.
During observations in the Activities/Dining room in [NAME] Hall, on 05/07/25 at 4:50 PM Resident #92
took Resident #76's cup of ice water off the front table, and she drank from it. She placed the cup of ice
water back on the table. On 05/07/25 at 4:55 PM, Resident #92 walked to the back table and took a cup of
ice water from Resident #18.
Resident #92 drank from his cup and then returned the cup to him. Resident #18 picked up his cup of water
and he also picked up the cup of his friend who sat to his left, Resident #97. He held both cups close to his
chest to prevent Resident #92 from taking their drinks. No staff members were in the Activity/Dining room at
that time. This occurred prior to the service for the dinner meal. The surveyor called the attention of a CNA,
Staff C, who was in the hallway. The surveyor explained that Resident #92 drank from the cups of Resident
#76 and Resident #18. The CNA discarded the three cups. On 05/07/25 at 5:27 PM Resident #92 took a
cup of water from Resident #111 and drank it. The surveyor notified Staff B, a CNA who was in the hallway
between both Activity/Dining rooms, about the cup that Resident #92 drank from. Staff B threw out the cup.
During an interview with Staff D, on 05/08/25 at 11:58 AM, the CNA was asked to describe Resident #92.
Staff D said that Resident #92 liked to sit on the floor and to eat with her hands. He also said that she
picked up other Residents cups of water. When asked how long he observed that behavior, Staff D said that
the behavior was present for all of the time that he worked in the facility (approximately six months). Staff D
said that the staff had to look at every resident that was on the unit. When Staff D was asked if there was
enough staff, he explained that there were usually 4 CNAs for 32 residents. That was 8 residents each.
Staff D continued: when 1 CNA was inside a resident's room providing care, it was difficult for that CNA to
watch her other 7 residents. Per Staff D, a staff member from the activities department, helped to provide
supervision.
An interview conducted on 05/08/25 at 12:10 PM with the Activities assistant, Staff F, revealed that an
activities staff member worked in [NAME] Hall every weekday, and every other weekend. She said

that the activities department needed more help because there were 2 Activity/Dining rooms, and 1 activity
staff member couldn't be in both rooms at the same time. She said that especially in [NAME] Hall, the
residents needed more attention. Staff F added that the activities staff members helped to watch for falls,
and they redirected residents when they became combative.
An interview was conducted on 05/08/25 at 8:50 AM with Staff E, a Registered Nurse who was assigned to
[NAME] Hall. When asked about adequate staffing, Staff E said that sometimes [NAME] Hall had 3 CNAs to
cover 32 residents, and sometimes [NAME] Hall had 4 CNAs. She said it was better when [NAME] Hall had
4 CNAs. In addition, Staff E said that they needed more staff from the activities department, because
activities staff helped the unit run more smoothly.
A record review revealed that Resident #76 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her room was changed
to a room in the [NAME] Hall, memory support unit, on 04/10/25. Her medical diagnoses included
Unspecified Psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition, Major Depressive
Disorder, Dementia, and Cognitive Communication Deficit. A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #76 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status of 03. This
indicated that she had severe cognitive impairment.
During an observation in the [NAME] dining room on 05/07/25 at 12:25 PM, two out of five residents seated
at table 1 were served their lunch. Resident #76 was not served yet. Resident #76 ate stuffing from
Resident #104's plate. Resident #104, who sat to her right, saw Resident #76 eat from his plate.
On 05/07/25 at 12:27 PM, a staff member and the surveyor observed Resident #76 as she ate carrots from
Resident #74's plate. Resident #74 sat to the left of Resident #76. The staff member told Resident #76 not
to eat from Resident #74's plate while she served Resident #76 her lunch plate.
Resident #104 didn't start eating. He appeared agitated. The surveyor attempted to speak to Resident #104
but was unable to communicate with him effectively. The surveyor notified Staff F that Resident #104
appeared upset. The surveyor explained that Resident #76 ate from the plates of the residents to her right
and left, before she was served. Staff F requested a new clean meal plate from the kitchen for Resident
#104. After Resident #104 was served a replacement for the plate of food, he ate the food with a good
appetite. Resident #74 was not served a new plate of food. Resident #74 ate his lunch after Resident #76
ate from his plate.

Ensure menus must meet the nutritional needs of residents, be prepared in advance, be followed, be
updated, be reviewed by dietician, and meet the needs of the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record reviews and interviews, the facility failed to meet nutritional needs for 1 of 8 sampled
residents, as evidenced by not providing all the food items on Resident #56 meal ticket.
The findings included:
Record review revealed Resident #56 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum
Data Sheet (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], documented the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental
Status (BIMS) score of 13, on a 0-15 scale, indicating no cognitive impairment. A physician order dated
02/20/25, documented that Resident #56 is on a regular diet.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 11:55 AM, when asked how your evening was, Resident #56 revealed a
picture of her dinner tray from 05/06/25, which consisted of mashed potato, green peas, sliced bread and
no protein. Resident #56 stated When the tray was brought to me and it was being set up, the staff stated
that's all you got. When asked if she requested something else Resident #56 stated, I asked the nurse for a
peanut butter and jelly sandwich but never got it.
During an interview on 05/07/25 at 5:51 PM, when asked if she was familiar with Resident #56, the Food
Service Manager stated, Yes, very, because she dislikes a lot of foods. When asked, do you know why
Resident #56 did not receive protein with her dinner on 05/06/25, the Food Service Manager stated I'm not
sure, maybe it was something she dislikes or can't have. The Food Service Manager provided a list of
Resident #56 dislikes.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 10:01 AM, when asked if she has a dislike for beef, Resident # 56 stated
Yes, I can't have it because it's hard for me to digest. When asked do you have a dislike for pork, Resident #
56 stated, No, I eat pork. I have told the kitchen several times to change that. I don't know why the other
night I didn't get protein with my dinner because they usually give me fish if I can't eat the other meat.
During an interview on 05/08/25 at 11:20 AM, when asked why Resident # 56 didn't receive a protein on
her dinner tray, if the other entree on the menu for 05/6/25 was chicken, the Food Service Manager stated,
I'm not sure. The Food Service Manger volunteered to print out the meal ticket for Resident #56 on
05/06/25. The meal ticket provided revealed that Resident #56 should have gotten the chicken on her
dinner tray on 5/6/25, because it was the other entrée. When asked if she knows what happened,
the Food Service Manager stated, I don't know it must have been overlooked.
