F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that four (Residents #169, #93, #81 and #102) residents from a total survey sample of 32 residents, were provided a clean, comfortable, and homelike environment. Each resident was missing a pillowcase. The findings include: On 8/6/24 at 10:57 AM, an observation was made of Resident #169 resting in bed with his eyes closed. His head was resting on a pillow without a pillowcase. On 8/6/24 at 11:13 AM, an observation was made of Resident #93's bed linens. He was missing a pillowcase. The resident was not present to interview. On 8/6/24 at 11:51 AM, an observation was made of Resident #81's bed linen, which was missing a pillowcase. The resident was interviewed and explained that he had not had a pillowcase in a while but could not remember exactly how many days he went without a pillowcase. He further explained that he previously asked facility staff for a pillowcase and was not provided one. He said it bothered him that he was sleeping on a bare pillow. On 8/6/24 at 1:58 PM, an observation of the linen cart on the 200-hall revealed eight flat sheets, eight fitted sheets, six blankets and no pillowcases. On 8/7/24 at 10:09 AM, an observation of the linen cart on the 200-hall revealed two washcloths and no pillowcases. On 8/7/24 at 10:12 AM, a second observation was made of Resident #169's bed linen.

F 0584 a pillowcase. The resident was not present to interview. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm On 8/8/24 at 9:46 AM, an observation was made of Resident #102's bed linen, which was missing a pillowcase. The resident was not present to interview. Residents Affected - Few On 8/8/24 at 10:06 AM, the Director of Laundry was interviewed and stated she was responsible for ordering bed linens, which were ordered through a local linen company on the 15th of every month. She explained that she scanned an order request to the facility Advisor who oversaw the purchase of linens, and once a linen order was approved and submitted, it usually shipped to the facility within one week. She further explained that the CNAs were responsible for making the residents' beds, which was done first thing in the morning three times a week. Making a resident's bed included placing a fitted sheet over the mattress, followed by a chucks pad, a blanket (depending on the resident's preference) and a pillowcase over the pillow. She reported that this morning she noticed a shortage of washcloths and pillowcases. Laundry services staff made an inventory of bed linens and provided her with a status of the facility's stock prior to her ordering bed linens. She stated this morning she conducted a count of the bed linen inventory on the dirty laundry side and clean laundry side. She noticed the inventory was low and submitted an order for bed linens. She further explained that many residents were known to hoard linens, which could have been a factor laeding to the shortage of bed linens. A review of the laundry room inventory, dated 8/8/24, revealed that the facility had no pillowcases in the laundry room. A review of the Butterfly (memory care) unit, dated 8/8/24, revealed that the unit contained 12 pillowcases.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observations, staff interviews, and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to store, prepare, distribute, and serve food in accordance with professional standards for food service safety. Proper sanitation is important in health care settings to prevent the outbreak of foodborne illness. Nursing home residents are at risk for serious complications from foodborne illness due to their already compromised health status, and standing water, biofilm, and pests such as gnats and roaches are sources of contamination. The findings include: A kitchen tour was conducted on 8/6/24 at 10:24 AM. The facility's oven was opened for observation and two roaches were observed crawling inside. Standing water was observed in the drain located in the cook area in front of the steamer. A small drain on the floor in front of walk-in refrigerator was observed to be uncovered and filled with a biofilm slime-like substance around the lip of the drain. Gnats were observed moving around the lip of the uncovered drain. (Photographic evidence obtained) During a follow-up visit to the kitchen on 8/8/24 at 10:45 AM, another observation was made of live roaches crawling in the oven of the kitchen range. A rust-like film was on the inside of the kitchen oven, and food debris was observed on and in between the top part of the oven. Another observation was made of the small drain on the floor in front of walk-in refrigerator that was uncovered and filled with a biofilm slime-like substance around the lip of the drain. Gnats were observed moving around the lip of the uncovered drain. An observation was also made of a small drain behind the wall of the cook area, adjacent to the ice machine, that was uncovered and filled with a dark fluid substance. (Photographic evidence obtained) During an interview with Dietary Aide F on 8/9/24 at 1:44 PM, she stated she was aware that the floor drains were missing covers. When she was asked if she was aware of the standing water in the drainage area located in front of the steamer, she replied, Not always. Most of the time I drain water out of the steam well and it was working fine. She also stated when kitchen equipment was not functioning properly or standing water was observed, it was reported to maintenance. During an interview with [NAME] G on 8/9/24 at 1:48 PM, he stated he was not aware that the floor drains were missing covers. When he was asked if he was aware of the standing water in the drainage area located in front of the steamer, he replied, No, it is usally dry by the time I come in to work. A broom is used to clear the old food out and let water drain. He also stated when kitchen equipment was not functioning properly it was reported to the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) or maintenance. During an interview with the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM)/Director of Housekeeping and Laundry on 8/9/24 at 3:45 PM, she stated she was aware that the floor drain covers were missing. She had not notified maintenance about the missing drain covers as of the time of this interview. She stated her plan was to notify maintenance regarding covers for the drains.

F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on facility record review, staff interview, and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive water management program for the purpose of reducing the risk of growth and spread of Legionella and other opportunistic pathogens in the facility's water system for its current census of 116 residents. Residents of nursing homes who may suffer from a weakened immune system, chronic lung disease, or other underlying medical conditions such as immunosuppression, are at risk for Legionnaires' Disease (type of pneumonia) if exposed to Legionella bacteria. Residents Affected - Many Facilities must be able to demonstrate their measures to minimize the risk of Legionella and other opportunistic pathogens in building water systems such as by having a documented water management program that must be based on nationally accepted standards. The program must include an assessment to identify where Legionella and other opportunistic waterborne pathogens could grow and spread; measures to prevent the growth of opportunistic waterborne pathogens (control measures), and how to monitor them. The findings include: From 8/6/24 through 8/9/24, a review of the facility's infection control and water management program was conducted. The facility water management program binder was produced. The binder contained a copy of the Developing a Water Management Program to Reduce Legionella Growth and Spread in Buildings, A Practical Guide to Implementing Industry Standards. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, dated 6/24/2021. (Copy obtained) During an interview with the Director of Housekeeping and Laundry on 8/9/24 at 10:22 AM, she confirmed that she supervised the maintenance program and was responsible for the facility's water management program. She stated the facility followed the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guide. A review of the water management program binder revealed the program did not include documentation verifying that the facility had conducted an annual review of its water management program. There was no documented evidence to verify that a staff member had been designated to perform visual inspections for biofilm, checking disinfectant levels, or periodic flushing of pipes. The program did not include control measures, including points in the system where critical limits could be monitored, or where control could be applied, such as physical controls, temperature management, disinfectant level control, visual inspections, and environmental testing for pathogens. It did not specify testing protocols, acceptable ranges for control measures, or documented results of testing of pH levels of disinfectant in the water. There were no confirmatory procedures, including verification steps to show that the program was being followed as written, or validation to show that the program was effective. The program binder contained a facility water flow chart, dated 7/28/17, that did not identify where Legionella or other opportunistic waterborne pathogens could grow and spread in the facility's water system. There was no documented evidence of monitoring areas of the water flow system that had the likelihood of developing Legionella.

F 0880 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many internal to buildings that can lead to Legionella growth: Water temperature fluctuations: Provide conditions where Legionella grows best (77°F-113°F); Legionella can still grow outside this range. A random review of the Water Temperature Logs dated 5/31/24 revealed that the water temperature on the 200 hall was 104 degrees Fahrenheit ('F). The water temperature for the 100 hall shower room was 104 'F. The 200 hall shower room water temperature was 107 'F. (Photographic evidence obtained) A review of a random Legionella Environmental Assessment Form, dated 5/15/24, revealed no documented verification of the chemical level of disinfectant in the potable water system. (Photographic evidence obtained) During an interview with the Director of Maintenance on 8/9/24 at 4:23 PM, he confirmed that he had received no training on the water management program and the review and testing of the water system had not been done since he was hired in March 2024. He had not been doing it. He had no testing kit for the disinfectant level in the water. He stated he did take the temperature of the water and logged it. During an interview with the Director of Housekeeping and Laundry on 8/9/24 at 4:35 PM, she confirmed that the testing of the water system had not been done on an annual basis. She stated she was responsible for the water management system. She stated she had telephoned a sister facility to find out what they should be doing. She stated, We aren't doing what they are doing. We aren't following the policy and procedure. A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Legionella Risk Management Policy (Undated), revealed: The purpose of this policy is to ensure that as far as possible, all residents, staff and visitors of this facility are protected from the incidence of Legionnaire's disease. The facility's Quality Assurance/Performance Improvement Committee's role will be to ensure that the relevant testing is completed and documented and that up to date risk assessment is completed annually, and any concerns are addressed in a timely manner. It is the policy of this facility to ensure that appropriate precautions for the control of Legionella bacteria are identified through a Legionella risk assessment process, and appropriate control measures implemented to ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of residents, employees and others. The minimum standards to be met include: Preparing Legionella Risk Assessments; Preparation of an action plan for preventing or controlling the risk; Implementation, management, monitoring and recording of precautions to include regular inspections, microbiological monitoring, temperature checks and flushing; Appointment of a person or persons to be managerially responsible for the water system; and This policy applies to the water system including, hot and cold water supply systems, cooling towers, shower heads, ice machines, etc. It is very important to measure and document the current physical and chemical characteristics of the potable water, as this can help determine whether conditions are likely to support Legionella amplification. Plan a sampling strategy that incorporates all central hot water heaters/boiler at various points along each loop of the potable water system. Water temperature record sheets need to be filled out and kept within the log book. Hot water should be at least 50 'Celcius (122 'F) after a 1 minute flow, and cold water below 20 'C (68 'F) after 2 minutes flow. Failing temperatures should be reported for suitable action and retested until satisfactory.
