This survey cited 12 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0558 Reasonably accommodate the needs and preferences of each resident. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to ensure a working television (TV) for 1 of 1 sampled resident who voiced a complaint (Resident #80). Residents Affected - Few The findings included: Review of the record revealed Resident #80 was admitted on Friday 01/26/24. The admission Evaluation completed on 01/26/24 documented Resident #80 received orientation to the facility that included the use of the call bell, bed controls, and telephone, but lacked orientation to the TV, as evidenced by a lack of a documented checkmark. Review of the Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score completed on 01/29/24 revealed Resident #80 was cognitively intact, with a score of 14, on a 0 to 15 scale. During an interview on Monday 01/29/24 at 12:17 PM, Resident #80 explained she had been admitted the previous Friday and that her TV had been out over the weekend. When asked if she had told anyone about the non-functioning TV, the resident stated she told several staff over the weekend, and they all told her that maintenance would come fix it on Monday. During a subsequent interview on Monday at 3:33 PM, Resident #80 stated the TV was not fixed, but that three staff had asked her about it. During an observation and interview on Tuesday 01/30/24 at 9:02 AM, when asked if her TV had been fixed, Resident #80 stated no, and that maintenance had not come in on the previous day. The TV remote was noted on the over the bed table. When asked about the remote, Resident #80 explained the remote would turn on the TV, but there were no stations. When the TV was turned on, it was noted to be a Smart TV with multiple menus and options. When the resident clicked on the multiple options, one menu instructed to add stations to your favorites, but the resident did not know how. During a medication administration observation on 01/30/24 at 11:24 AM, while passing by the room of Resident #80, the Unit Manager, who was the direct care nurse for the day, noticed the call bell had been activated. The Unit Manager stopped and assisted the resident. Upon leaving, Resident #80 stated, My TV still doesn't work, and maintenance hasn't been here to fix it. The Unit Manager responded, OK, I'll let maintenance know. On 01/30/24 at 3:14 PM, the TV for Resident #80 was still not working. The Unit Manager and Administrator were noted at the nurses' station. When asked if she knew how to operate the TVs in the resident rooms, the Unit Manager stated she did not. When asked if she recalled telling a resident that same day during the medication pass observation, that she would get maintenance to assist with a resident's TV, the Unit Manager named two other residents, but did not recall telling Resident #80 that she would tell maintenance about her non-functioning TV. The Administration stated, I thought I was doing a good thing by ordering all new Smart TVs, but that is the problem.

F 0561 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to and the facility must promote and facilitate resident self-determination through support of resident choice. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure care and services as per resident choice for 1 of 2 sampled residents observed who received blood sugar level checks (Resident #10). The findings included: During a medication pass observation for Resident #10 on 01/31/24 at 11:38 AM, Staff A, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), gathered the supplies to obtain a blood sugar level, and entered the resident's room. When asked by the LPN which finger she wanted to use to obtain the blood sample, Resident #10 stated she didn't care which finger, but stated, Don't do it near the fingernail, it hurts, while demonstrating where not to put the lancet. The LPN then started toward the side of the resident's finger with the lancet and the resident stated, No not there. On the pad, demonstrating to the LPN exactly were on the pad of the finger she would prefer. The LPN stated she could not do it on the pad as that's where the nerves are and that would hurt. Resident #10 again stated, Not on the side. The LPN stated, Ok . right here, and placed the lancet on the side of the finger and immediately pricked the finger with the lancet before the resident was able to respond. The resident stated, That hurt, and you didn't listen to me. You're not the one that has to live with the pain. After the medication pass observation, Resident #10 explained that she was a seamstress all of her life and was used to pricks on the pad of her fingers. When asked how Staff A made her feel, Resident #10 stated, I understand the nurses didn't sew, but they need to listen to me. I know what I want. During an interview on 01/31/24 at 11:55 AM, when asked if she should have listened to the resident's request regarding obtaining the blood sample, and follow her request, the LPN stated, I agree. Review of the record revealed Resident #10 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 9, on a 0 to 15 scale, indicating the resident had some cognitive impairment. This MDS also revealed the resident received insulin injections 7 of 7 days during the look-back period. Review of the current Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed the nurses were obtaining blood sugar levels three times daily. Review of the comprehensive assessment dated [DATE] documented all the decisions related to her Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) were very important to her. During an interview on 02/01/24 at 9:25 AM, when told of the observation during the medication pass with Resident #10 and Staff A, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, (Name of Resident #10) is very particular.

F 0726 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way that maximizes each resident's well being. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3) Review of the policy Oral Inhalation Administration revised January 2018 documented, Metered dose and Dry-Powder Inhalers: . K. Ask resident to breathe out as deeply as possible (do not exhale into inhaler). L. Position inhaler for administration: 1) If not using a spacer: a. Open mouth and position the inhaler one or two inches from mouth, OR b. Place inhaler mouthpiece under top teeth and above tongue with mouth/lips closed around the mouthpiece. M. Press down on inhaler once to release medication as resident starts to breathe in slowly through the mouth over 3 to 5 seconds. (Do not spray more than one puff at a time.) . P. If another puff of the same or different medication is required, wait at least 1-2 minutes between, then repeat procedures above. A medication pass observation was completed for Resident #81 on 01/30/24 at 9:26 AM with the Unit Manager, who was the direct care nurse for the shift. The Unit Manager obtained the resident's Albuterol inhaler, explaining the resident had her morning medications but requested the inhaler after breakfast. The Unit Manager handed the Albuterol inhaler to Resident #81 and stated, You know, two puffs. Hold it and exhale when you need. Resident #81 took the inhaler, put it in her mouth, exhaled into the inhaler, administered two quick puffs, and held her breath. The Unit Manager had to cue the resident to exhale, even though she had previously instructed her to hold her breath and exhale when needed. During an interview on 01/31/24 at 9:37 AM, when asked if she recalled the inhaler administration for Resident #81 from the previous day, the Unit Manager stated she did. When asked if she had administered the Albuterol for Resident #81 before, the Unit Manager stated she had on many occasions. The Unit Manager explained she had learned from the resident's son, that prior to admission, resident #81 was independently administering her own medications, including the inhaler. The Unit Manager stated upon admission to the facility, she tried to administer the inhaler to the resident several times, but the resident would not allow it. The Unit Manager stated she spent a lot of time trying different times to get the resident to wait between puffs, but she would not follow her instructions. The Unit Manager agreed the technique used by the resident was not correct. When asked she if had documented anything related to the provided instructions, attempted education, and or discussion with the resident's son, the Unit Manager stated she believed she did a while ago. Review of the record revealed Resident #81 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The record revealed the order for the Albuterol inhaler, but lacked any order to self-administer. The record also lacked any progress note related to the use of the inhaler, attempted instructions and or education, or discussion with the resident's son. 4) Review of the policy Oral Medication Administration revised April 2018 documented, Procedures: I. Chart medication administration on Medication Administration Record immediately following each resident's medication administration. Review of the record revealed Resident #17 was admitted to the facility, late in the day on 01/01/24. Review of the comprehensive Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 3, on a 0 to 15 scale, indicating the resident was severely cognitively impaired. This MDS lacked any documented behaviors of refusal of care and indicated the resident had medications to include insulin and antidepressants.

F 0726 Review of the January 2024 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed the following: Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm a) On 01/08/24 at 6:45 AM the record lacked any blood sugar level. Residents Affected - Some b) On 01/11/24 at 9:00 AM the record lacked the administration of amlodipine and lebetalol (medications for elevated blood pressure levels), citalopram (a medication for depression), famotidine (a medication for heartburn), aspirin (a medication for the prevention of blood clots), and metformin (a medication for elevated blood sugar levels). During a side-by-side review of the record and observation of the medication bubble packs (the packaging of the medication by the pharmacy) for Resident #17 on 01/31/24 at 5:12 PM, the Consultant pharmacist and Director of Nursing (DON) agreed with the lack of documented administration as noted above. The DON confirmed with the pharmacy that the medications for Resident #17 were scheduled to start on the morning of 01/02/24, and were delivered to the facility in time for the morning medication pass on 01/02/24. The following inconsistencies were noted between the January 2024 MAR and the actual number of medications administered (Photographic Evidence Obtained): a) Staff documented the administration of the Atorvastatin (a medication for elevated lipids) 29 times, with only 28 pills popped or removed from the bubble pack. b) Staff documented the administration of the amlodipine 28 times, with only 27 pills removed from the packaging. c) Staff documented the administration of the Citalopram 28 times, but 31 pills were removed from the two packages. 5) Review of the January 2024 Medication Administration Records (MARs) revealed Resident #25 had two orders for the pain medication Tramadol. One order was for 25 mg (milligrams) of Tramadol to be administered routinely at 9 AM and 6 PM. The MAR documented administration of the 25 mg twice daily, except for the 6 PM dose on 01/08/24, which was left blank. The second order was for 50 mg of Tramadol to be administered every 6 hours as needed for pain. The January 2024 MAR lacked any documented administration of the 50 mg tablets to Resident #25. Review of the corresponding Medication Monitoring/Control Records lacked any documented removal of the routine Tramadol on 01/30/24 for either shift, but documented removal of the 50 mg tablets of Tramadol on 01/30/24 at 9:30 AM and 6:30 PM. During an interview on 02/01/24 at 12:40 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) agreed with the inconsistencies with the Tramadol. During an interview on 02/01/24 at 1:44 PM, the Unit Manager, who was one of the nurses who pulled the 50 mg Tramadol from the medication cart on 01/30/24, explained Resident #25 had complained of increased pain on that date, so the larger dose was given. When asked to review the MARs for the documentation of the Tramadol administration, the Unit Manager agreed she had documented the Tramadol incorrectly. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure competent nursing staff as evidenced by the failure to: (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105875 If continuation sheet Page 5 of 12 Printed: 05/28/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 105875 B.

Usage longer than 14 days increases risk for C-Diff. Recommended twice daily. A review of the Facility's Antibiotic Stewardship Policy and Procedure states: 9. The Prescribers will document dose, duration, and indication for all antibiotic prescriptions. On 01/31/24 at 4:00 PM, an interview was conducted with Consultant Pharmacist, he stated, I have not reviewed this resident's record as of yet, since he just was admitted a few days ago, but when reviewing for antibiotic stewardship, I look at right antibiotic, right duration, and if the antibiotic was actually started when prescribed. The Pharmacist agreed that the antibiotic order should have included a stop date. During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON)on 01/31/24 at approximately 5:00 PM, the DON confirmed that the doctor verbally told her to give Resident #130 the prescribed antibiotic until 02/02/24.
