This survey cited 4 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 observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to ensure four (#5, #6, #9, and #10) residents of seventy-three had access to the call light system as evidence by call light pull strings were not within their reach. Residents Affected - Few Findings included: On 11/7/24 at 9:30 a.m. Resident #5 was observed lying in bed wearing a hospital gown. The resident's head of bed was raised greater than 45 degrees. The observation revealed the resident's call light pull string was lying on the bedside dresser, which was pushed up against the wall behind and next to the resident's bed, the end of the cord was observed under boxes sitting on top of dresser. Photographic evidence was obtained. On 11/7/24 at 9:30 a.m. Resident #6 was observed lying in bed, curled up and facing the door. The resident's call light pull string was at the resident's head of bed and dropped through the mattress holder onto the floor. The resident would have had to reach behind and above him to reach the cord/string. An interview and observation was conducted with Staff B, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) on 11/7/24 at 9:39 a.m. The staff member confirmed Resident #5 and #6 could not reach their call light pull string/cords. Review of the admission Record for Resident #5 revealed the resident had diagnoses not limited to need for assistance with personal care, unspecified cataract, and mild dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance mood disturbance, and anxiety. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) for Resident #5 dated 8/12/24 showed a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 13 of 15, which indicated intact cognition. Review of the admission Record for Resident #6 showed the resident had diagnoses not limited to need for assistance with personal care, Parkinson's disease without dyskinesia without mention of fluctuations, and unspecified severity unspecified dementia without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance mood disturbance and anxiety. Review of the quarterly MDS for Resident #6 dated 7/1/24 showed a BIMS score of 6 of 15 which indicated severe cognition impairment.

F 0825 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few unilateral weakness, pain, proximal instability, body awareness deficits and gross motor coordination deficits and in consideration of history, personal factors, and functional limitations documented in this eval summary, patient requires skilled PT services to increase LE ROM (Lower Extremity range of motion) and strength, increase independence with gait, increase functional activity tolerance, facilitate independence with hall functional mobility and enhance rehab potential, in order to safely return home, decrease level of assistance from caregivers and facilitate safe transition to next level of care. Due to the documented physical impairments and associated functional deficits, without skilled therapeutic intervention, the patient is at risk for pneumonia, limited out of bed activity, falls, immobility, decreased skin integrity, anxiety and pulmonary insufficiency. Review of the OT evaluation dated 10/14/2024 showed clinical impressions / reason for skilled services: patient exhibits new onset of fall / fall risk, reduced dynamic balance, reduced static balance and reduced ADL participation: patient is a [AGE] year old female who has admitted to ED (Emergency Department) after suffering a fall. Patient has also collapsed lung and COPD. Patient presents to current facility with aforementioned deficits and could benefit from skilled services at this time. Review of Resident #2's care plans showed a care plan that the resident was a new admission to the facility and was here for short term rehab therapy and plans to discharge back to home when able with home health services, if indicated initiated on 10/18/24. The goal was for the resident to attend therapy as scheduled and participate in the treatment program to enable discharge back to home with a target date of 01/2025.
