Honor the resident's right to share a room with spouse or roommate of choice and receive written notice
before a change is made.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide written notice, including the reason for
the change, prior to changing the resident's room for 3 of 5 residents reviewed for choices, of a total sample
of 42 residents, (#2, #6, and #79).Findings:
1. Review of the medical record revealed resident #2, a [AGE] year-old female was admitted to the facility
from an acute care hospital on [DATE] with diagnoses that included chronic pain syndrome, muscle spasm,
right side lumbago (low back pain) with sciatica (pain along sciatic nerve), and generalized anxiety disorder.
The most recent Comprehensive Significant Change Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment with an
Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 1/15/26 indicated resident #2 scored 14 out of 15 on the Brief
Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) that indicated she was cognitively intact.
The Care Plan Report noted on 1/16/25, resident #2 had alteration in mood/psychosocial well-being related
to anxiety with an intervention to provide a calm environment.
On 2/10/26 at 11:57 AM, resident #2 said she did not like being in a room with her current roommate and
stated, it's terrible.
Review of resident #2's Electronic Health Record (EHR) showed room changes were made on 11/01/25
and 1/03/26.
Resident #2's progress notes did not include any information about informing the resident/representative
about the two room changes.
On 2/12/26 at 11:19 AM, the Social Services Director said the facility's practice was obtaining
resident/representative consent prior to room changes. She checked resident #2's medical record and said
she was unable to find any notes or documentation about the resident's consultation or consent for two
room changes. She said she was not involved in resident #2's room changes and she was recently made
aware of an electronic form available to document proper protocols and consent. She checked the medical
record and found a progress note that showed the resident had recently requested a transfer to another
facility and conveyed it was possible she wanted to transfer because she was unhappy with her room
assignment.
2. Review of resident #79's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including pericardial effusion (fluid around the heart), chronic obstructive pulmonary

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
interview, and record review, the facility failed to promote resident rights related to the choice of the type of
wheelchair used for 1 of 5 residents reviewed for choices, of a total sample of 42 residents,
(#104).Findings: Review of resident #104's medical record revealed she was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses including orthopedic aftercare, displacement of internal fixation device of vertebrae,
hemiplegia and hemiparesis (partial paralysis and weakness) following cerebral infarction affecting her left
non-dominant side, and difficulty in walking. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) admission
assessment with Assessment Reference Date of 1/27/26 revealed resident #104 had a Brief Interview for
Mental Status score of 15 out of 15, indicating she was cognitively intact. The MDS assessment indicated
she did not reject evaluation or care needed to achieve her goals for health and well-being. The MDS
assessment noted she used a manual wheelchair and was able to independently propel at least 150 feet.
Review of resident #104's comprehensive care plan dated 1/27/26 revealed she was there for a short stay
and clearly expressed desire to discharge from the facility. She anticipated returning home where she lived
alone. Review of a PT (Physical Therapy) Evaluation and Plan of Treatment form dated 1/21/26 revealed
that prior to admission resident #104 used a large electric wheelchair primarily for mobility in the home and
community; and was independent with transfers. Documentation also indicated she had a smaller foldable
electric wheelchair she used for community outings. On 2/09/26 at 1:13 PM, resident #104 stated the facility
did not allow her to use her own wheelchair. She shared she was required to use a facility wheelchair. She
reported she had used her electric wheelchairs for approximately five years and had traveled with them.
She stated the facility did not test her ability to use the wheelchair in manual mode and did not assess her
ability to safely operate it. On 2/11/26 at 1:42 PM, Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) G stated resident
#104 had expressed her desire to use her electric wheelchair in the facility. OTA G indicated electric
wheelchairs were not allowed due to safety concerns. On 2/12/26 at 12:20 PM, the Director of
Rehabilitation (DOR) stated resident #104 informed therapy of her preference to bring her power chair. The
DOR indicated electric wheelchairs were not generally used in the facility due to safety concerns for
residents and staff. The DOR stated therapy would not be working with the electric wheelchair during
treatments. She further stated she was not aware of a specific motorized wheelchair policy. On 2/12/26 at
12:45 PM, Physical Therapy Assistant F stated staff were aware resident #104 wanted to use her electric
wheelchair and that he was told electric wheelchairs were not allowed in the facility. On 2/12/26 at 3:16 PM,
the Administrator stated the facility historically did not use motorized wheelchairs; however, near discharge,
therapy may request families bring them in for assessment in preparation for return to the community.
Review of the medical record revealed no documentation that therapy or nursing assessed resident #104's
ability to safely use her motorized wheelchair in the facility. Review of the facility's policy and procedure
titled Motorized Wheelchairs revised 4/01/22 revealed an intent to allow and assist residents who can safely
and competently utilize motorized wheelchair to do so. The procedure stated therapy and/or nursing would
determine the need for a motorized wheelchair based on assessment of the resident's capability and safe
operation while in the facility. An addendum to this policy titled Resident Use of Motorized
Wheelchairs/Scooters indicated the use of electric wheelchairs and scooters was discouraged in the facility.
Review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Resident Rights, Dignity, and Visitation Rights, issued on
4/01/22, stated the facility would ensure residents could exercise their rights without interference and would
observe resident's choices whenever able.

Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must
establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure prompt resolution of grievances for 1
of 5 residents reviewed for choices, of a total sample of 42 residents, (#94).Findings:Resident #94 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included atherosclerotic heart disease, chronic
obstructive coronary disease, unspecified dementia and major depressive disorder. Review of the quarterly
Minimum Data Set assessment dated [DATE] revealed resident #94 was cognitively intact with a Brief
Interview for Mental Status score of 13 out of 15, meaning he was cognitively intact. The assessment
indicated he did not have any behaviors nor refused care. On 2/11/26 at 3:05 PM, resident #94 was up in
his wheelchair with his wife at the bedside. He stated this was the first time he had been out of bed in a
very long time. He explained the reason he had to get up was to attend the care plan meeting. Both the
resident and his wife said they had voiced a lot of issues to the facility, but the concerns did not seem to be
addressed. Resident #94's wife said she had even filed a grievance last month but had not heard anything
back. She said she often spoke to the resident care unit (RCU) Unit Manager (UM), but felt she often talked
around her issues. The wife said she did not think anything had been resolved, I do not remember signing
the grievance or having a discussion that there was any resolution to my concerns. Resident #94 stated he
wanted to be taken out of bed more often and had been asking for a long while, but staff often reported that
he refused whenever his wife would ask. On 2/11/26 at 3:30 PM, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) E said
she had never assisted resident #94 out of bed nor ever put him back to bed. She heard from other staff
that he often refused but recalled she once saw him out of bed for a doctor's appointment. Assigned CNA D
said that today was the first time in a long time she saw resident #94 out of bed and had thought he only
got out of bed for showers. On 2/11/26 at 3:54 PM, the Social Services Director (SSD) said she was also
the Grievance Officer and whenever she received a grievance, based on the issue, it was often forwarded
to the department responsible for a resolution. She explained that it usually takes them about two weeks to
resolve. The SSD was asked to review the grievance filed on behalf of resident #94 and retrieved it from her
binder. She explained it was filed on 1/21/26 by and did not appear to be resolved. She continued to explain
that this would have been handled by the RCU UM and the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) and they
would have information about it. On 2/11/26 at 4:27 PM, the RCU UM said she did not know anything about
the grievance filed on behalf of resident #94 and the only reason it might have taken longer than two weeks
was because they might not have been able to contact the family. The RCU UM explained that during that
time, she was on vacation and the ADON was handling the grievances. On 2/11/26 at 4:47 PM, the ADON
provided a copy of the grievance and stated she remembered it was resolved over the phone with resident
#94's wife. A review of the actions taken for the resident wanting to be shaved was the task was included it
in the CNA Kardex. Their investigation showed that resident #94 refused to get out of bed, and explained
they were honoring his right to refuse. There was no mention about the resident wanting a private room nor
an explanation given about the roommate having the TV too loud. A review of the grievance form did not
indicate if the grievance was resolved. The form did not contain any signatures or dates for when the
grievance was resolved. On 2/12/26 at 10:15 AM, the SSD said she could not answer why the grievance
had not been resolved since the same issues were brought up in the Care Plan meeting yesterday. She
said that nursing was still working on it. The facility's policy on grievances issued 4/01/22 indicated the
facility would provide residents, resident representatives, family and visitors with methods of sharing
grievances and/or concerns with the

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure food was stored, prepared,
and maintained in a safe and sanitary manner to prevent the potential for foodborne illness in the main
kitchen and 1 of 2 nourishment rooms. Findings: During the initial tour of the facility kitchen on 2/09/26 at
10:11 AM, the following concerns were observed: *Multiple lids were stored on a rolling storage rack with
visible food debris and residue present on the shelving surfaces and rack bars. The rack was soiled, with
dried food particles noted on the horizontal supports. *The kitchen ceiling above the dishwashing area
revealed multiple ceiling tiles with visible dark spots, stains, and discoloration. *Multiple baking pans
contained dried food residue. Photographic evidence was obtained. The Certified Dietary Manager (CDM)
validated the above findings and did not provide an explanation for why the items were in this condition. On
2/10/26 at 9:52 AM, the Regional Dietary Consultant stated the kitchen and baking pans were cleaned the
previous night. Observation of approximately 20 baking pan trays revealed continued staining and residue.
He acknowledged the baking pans needed to be replaced. 2. On 2/11/26 at 4:46 PM, a tour of the
nourishment room in the Residential Care Unit (RCU) was conducted with Certified Nursing Assistant
(CNA) I. The following concerns were observed: *A sandwich wrapped in aluminum foil was observed in the
refrigerator door and was not labeled with a resident name, room number, or date. *A bag of lemon sugar
cookies was observed in the refrigerator door with no name, room number, or date indicated. *A Styrofoam
cup containing ice was observed in the refrigerator door and was not labeled with a resident name, room
number, or date. CNA I discarded the cup and stated it was likely from a resident who liked to save cups of
ice. *A Styrofoam cup containing liquid was stored inside the top rack of the refrigerator. The cup was
labeled with a staff member's name and the letters CNA. CNA I stated the staff member worked the 7:00
AM to 3:00 PM shift and was not present at that time. She indicated staff were instructed to store food and
beverages in the staff break room refrigerator and not in the nourishment room refrigerator. CNA I
discarded the cup at that time CNA I stated resident food items were required to include the resident's
name or room number and the date received. She indicated items were kept for up to three days and
discarded after that time. On 2/11/26 at 4:59 PM, the RCU Unit Manager (UM) confirmed the nourishment
room refrigerator was designated for resident food items only. She indicated resident items must include a
name or room number and the date, and items were discarded after 72 hours. The UM acknowledged the
unlabeled items should be discarded because their ownership and date could not be verified. On 2/12/26 at
11:34 AM, the Administrator stated staff beverages should not be stored in the nourishment room
refrigerator and resident food items must be labeled with a name or room number and date. Review of the
facility's policy and procedure titled Food Brought in From the Outside, issued on 4/01/22, revealed the
facility intended to provide safe and sanitary storage and handling of all food and beverages brought into
the facility. The policy stated nursing staff were to label containers with the food item name and date
received.

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain complete and accurately
documented clinical records for medication administration, in accordance with accepted professional
standards and practices, for 1 of 7 residents observed for medication administration, of a total sample of 42
residents, (#33).Findings:Resident #33 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included cellulitis of the
left lower limb, respiratory failure, peripheral vascular disease and rash. Review of the admission Minimum
Data Set assessment with reference date 11/30/25 revealed resident #33's cognition was intact with a brief
interview of mental status score of 15 out of 15. Review of resident #33's plan of care showed the resident
had the following skin impairments: rash in right lower quadrant of the abdominal folds, scalp seborrheic
dermatitis, right dorsal hand wound and stasis dermatitis on bilateral lower legs. Interventions included
instruction for nurses to perform wound care treatments as ordered. Physician's orders included Urea
External Cream 40% (Urea), applied to bilateral lower legs topically every day shift for stasis dermatitis) for
six months, Hibiclens External Solution 4% (Chlorhexidine Gluconate) applied to lower legs topically every
day for stasis dermatitis and Ketoconazole External Shampoo 2% (Ketoconazole (Topical)) applied to scalp
topically every day shift for seborrheic dermatitis. On 2/10/25 at between 9:00 AM and 9:30 AM, Licensed
Practical Nurse (LPN) C, was observed during medication administration for resident #33. LPN C
administered five oral medications. A short time later, during medication reconciliation, a review of the
Medication Administration Record (MAR), revealed the resident received Hibiclens External solution,
Ketoconazole External Shampoo and Urea external cream in addition to the five oral medications observed.
A further review of the medication administration audit report showed LPN C administered Hibiclens
External Solution at 8:57 AM, ketoconazole external shampoo at 9:16 AM, and Urea External cream at 9:16
AM. On 2/10/26 at 1:24 PM, resident #33 was sitting up in his wheelchair and said no creams or other
topical medicine were applied to his legs today nor did he receive the shampoo to his scalp. The resident
explained sometimes he got the creams in the afternoon but said he didn't ask for the medications when he
did not get them. On 2/10/26 at 1:33 AM, LPN C explained he documented after providing treatment or after
giving medication and not before. LPN C acknowledged he documented the medications were given before
they were actually administered to the resident. He confirmed he should have documented after the
treatment was applied not prior but could not say why he did. At that time, the Director of Nursing (DON)
who was standing next to LPN C at the nurse's station, was told that resident #81's topical medications
were documented as performed when they had not actually been given. The DON acknowledged the MAR
was inaccurate because it showed the treatment was applied, when it was not. She stated her expectation
was for nurses to document immediately after medications were administered or treatment were applied,
not beforehand. The facility's policy on Medication Administration dated 4/01/22 indicated medications were
administered in a timely manner and as prescribed by the physician unless otherwise clinically indicated or
necessitated by other circumstances such as lack of availability of medication or refusals of medication by
the resident. In section 12, the policy described, Should a drug be withheld, refused or given other than the
scheduled time, the individual administering the medication will document this in the clinical record.
