Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to reasonably accommodate the needs of one
(Resident #45) of 21 residents related to not placing the call light within the resident's reach.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
On 05/19/2024 at 1:00 p.m., the call light was observed on the floor, behind the headboard of Resident
#45's bed. (Photographic Evidence Obtained.)

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.
Based on observation, interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure Air Conditioning (A/C)
filters were maintained in a safe and sanitary manner in seven (69, 70, 132, 133, 135,136 and 157) of 26
resident rooms during three of three days of survey.
Findings included:
During multiple facility tours on 05/19/21, 05/20/21 and 05/21/24 observations were made of A/C filters with
dirt and blanketed debris in rooms 69, 70, 132, 133, 135,136 and 157. (Photographic evidence was
obtained).
On 05/22/24 at 9:32 a.m., an interview was conducted with the Director of Maintenance (DOM) and the
Nursing Home Administrator (NHA). The NHA stated they did not have a policy on A/C maintenance but
would contact their corporate to obtain a copy. The DOM stated the A/C filters were last cleaned on
02/23/24. He stated they had a checklist they followed to make sure they covered all the rooms. He stated
their policy was to clean the filters and change them quarterly. He stated he had just looked at some of the
rooms. He said, I looked at the A/C filters. Some of them were very bad and some were not as bad. We will
start cleaning today.
Review of the August 2023 facility policy titled HVAC [Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning] Systems
Inspection and Maintenance] showed the center's HVAC systems are inspected and maintained periodically
to ensure proper functioning. Review of the procedure showed:
Filters:
(1.) Clean/replace air conditioner filters as needed. All filters may not need to be replaced or cleaned every
week, but all filters must be changed in a 4-week period (monthly).
Equipment Inspection:
(4.) Change all filters, .
Seasonal Maintenance:
(5.) Filters must be cleaned or changed on a regular basis. Determine if filters should be changed more
frequently.

reviewed the requested level I PASRRs and stated there were concerns related to the diagnoses not
checked. She said, They should have been checked. Our process is to make sure before the resident
comes to the facility, we read their history and make sure they have a current PASRR. We have psych or
their provider evaluate the resident and update the PASRR with current diagnoses. The DON stated they
reviewed PASRRs in their morning meetings. She stated they should have been updated accordingly.
The RNC stated on 05/20/24 at 03:20 p.m. the facility did not have a PASRR policy.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the Comprehensive Resident
Centered Care Plan was updated related to falls for one (Resident #58) of four sampled residents.
Findings included:
During an observation on 05/21/2024 at 1:15 p.m., Resident #58 was sitting at bedside in the wheelchair.
She was dressed and groomed for the day. White, open back sliders were on her feet. A pair of tennis /
enclosed shoes were next to the wall. She had fluids at the bedside. A scoop mattress was in place. The
bed was in the lower position. The call light was within reach.
Review of the care plans showed Resident #58 was at risk for falls as evidenced by history of repeat falls
due to confusion, gait/balance problems, and generalized weakness and was initiated on 11/01/2023.
Interventions included to offer / assist to watch TV in the dining room before dinner as of 05/13/2024 and
anti-tippers to wheelchair as of 05/19/2024.
Resident #58 was admitted on [DATE]. Review of the admission Record showed diagnoses included but not
limited to dementia, repeated falls, weakness, abnormalities of gait and mobility, right foot drop and
congestive heart failure. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE], showed a Brief
Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 02 or severely impaired. Section GG showed she required
partial to moderate assist for toileting and maximum assist for sit to stand.
Review of progress notes showed a Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation (SBAR)
dated 05/10/2024 at 21:34 (9:34 p.m.) showed Falls.
Review of the Post-Fall Review dated 05/14/2024 (4 days post fall) showed on 05/10/24 at 17:15 (5:15
p.m.), the resident was observed sitting on her buttocks next to her wheelchair. She stated she fell out of
her wheelchair on to her buttocks, while she was trying to reach her TV remote. Resident denied any pain.
Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) reviewed incident; resident usually ate in dinner in the dining room. Updated
the care plan to offer/assist to watch TV in the dining room before dinner.
During an interview on 05/21/2024 at 1:51 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON) stated she was unable to
locate documentation in the progress notes regarding the fall on 05/10/2024 (the date of the fall). The DON
verified the documentation regarding the fall was only in the Post-Fall Review with the IDT on 05/14/2024
(four days post fall). She verified an intervention was not into place, per the care plan review, until
05/13/2024 (3 days post fall). The DON stated the interventions were to be put into place at the time of the
fall. The IDT reviewed the fall and the care plan at the time of the meeting. The Therapy Director (TD) stated
the resident was already on case load during the incident. The Occupational Therapist working with her
educated her on using a reacher for reaching.
Review of the facility's policy, Comprehensive Person-Centered Care Plans, revised 8/2023 showed the
center will develop a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each resident that includes measurable
objectives and timetables to meet a resident's medical, nursing, mental and psychosocial needs that are
identified in the comprehensive assessment. Fundamental Information: The comprehensive care plan will
describe the following: 1. The services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest
