F 0550 Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Residents Affected - Few 2. During an observation of breakfast on 10/28/2020 beginning at 8:30 a.m., Resident #30 was observed lying in bed, with the head of the bed up and Staff S, CNA standing to the left of the resident. Staff S, CNA was observed standing next to the bed, assisting the resident with her breakfast. When Staff S was asked if she had a chair in which to sit to better assist the resident, the Staff S stated, I don't have a chair. When asked if she always stood when she was assisting residents with their meals, she repeated, I don't have a chair. The observation of the room , during the breakfast meal , revealed an armchair in the corner of the room to the right of the resident. Review of the resident's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) Assessment, completed on 08/31/2020, revealed that the resident was not able to participate in the BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) to identify her cognitive abilities as she was rarely or never understood. The MDS Assessment identified the resident as needing extensive assistance by one staff during meals. Based on observations, interviews and medical record review, the facility failed to protect the rights of two residents (#99 and #30) to ensure a dignified existence by 1.) failing to provide one resident (#99) with a family visit in a setting that maintained effective communication to accommodate the resident's hearing loss, and 2.) the facility did not ensure a dignified dining experience for Resident #30 related to a staff member (S) standing over the resident while feeding the resident out of a total of thirty-three sampled residents. Findings included: 1. On 10/27/2020 at 1:18 p.m. Resident #99 was observed in her room and seated in her wheelchair. Staff A, Activities Aide was observed in the room and getting ready to assist the resident out from her room. Resident #99 kept asking the staff member, Where am I going? Staff A told Resident #99, I want to take you to show you someone. Resident #99 said, What? Staff A repeated again, but Resident #99 still did not hear her. Staff A then pushed Resident #99, while seated in her wheelchair, from her room down the hall to the 700-hallway dining room, and near an exit door that lead to the outside. Before the resident was positioned near the door, she again asked Staff A, Where am I going, I want to go back to my room, take me home. Staff A kept telling Resident #99 that she had a special visitor and to just look out the window. However, Resident #99 still did not hear her as she kept saying, What? What?

F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Staff A positioned the resident so she could have a window visit with her family member. Resident #99 could not hear her family member through the window and kept saying, I can't hear what you're saying. The family member, while outside and on the other side of the door window, pulled down her face mask and told Staff A that Resident #99 had a hearing aid and asked why it was not in her ear. Staff A was overheard telling Resident #99's family member that she was unaware that she had or needed a hearing aid. Staff A pulled out her personal cell phone from her pocket and dialed Resident #99's family member's cell phone so Resident #99 and her family member could talk via the telephone. It was observed that this did not work as Staff A sat the phone on one of the dining room tables, behind the resident, while she was in her wheelchair. The phone could be overheard on speaker, but the volume was not loud. Therefore, Resident #99 could not hear her family member talk. At that point Staff A and B, Activities Aide left and then went to Resident #99's room to find the hearing aid. They were gone from 1:25 p.m. and returned at 1:35 p.m. without a hearing aid. Resident #99 from 1:18 p.m. to 1:35 p.m. was observed upset and kept telling staff to let her family member in the door. When staff tried to tell her that her family member could not come inside, she kept asking what they were saying. The family member kept yelling through the door window that Resident #99 could read lips, but Staff A said that they could not remove or lower their masks for her to read their lips. Resident #99 continued to appear confused and upset. The visit with Resident #99 and her family member was ended at 1:36 p.m. because they were unable to communicate well due to her not having her hearing aid. Staff A removed Resident #99 from the dining area and assisted her back to her room, where Staff B was still in there looking for a hearing aid. Staff A confirmed that she cut the visit short because they (Resident #99 and family member) could not hear each other, even with using the telephones. Staff A and B both confirmed that Resident #99 has hearing loss and that the hearing aid could not be located. On 10/27/20 at 1:38 p.m. an interview with Staff D, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) confirmed that she observed the window visit between Resident #99 and her family member. Staff D was observed, from 1:18 p.m. to 1:36 p.m. standing approximately twenty feet away from where Resident #99 was positioned during the family window visit. During that time, she did not go over and offer any assistance, or try to communicate with Resident #99 for her family member. Review of the admission Record dated 10/7/2020 for Resident #99 revealed diagnoses to include dementia, anxiety, and unspecified hearing loss bilateral. Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], revealed there was no score for the Brief Interview for Mental Status and no indication of short-term memory, long term memory or decision-making skills. However, the assessment indicated that Resident #99 did not answer correctly the questions related to the current year, current month, or current week, and could not recall memory word. The Hearing/Speech/Vison section showed hearing checked as adequate, no hearing aid was checked. On 10/28/2020 at 12:03 p.m. a telephone interview was conducted with Resident #99's family member. She was asked how her visit went with Resident #99 the day before, on 10/27/2020. Resident #99's family member was very upset that she could not speak effectively with Resident #99 during the visit and that the facility had somehow lost her hearing aid and Resident #99 was not able to hear anything during the time she was there visiting. She confirmed that Resident #99 has a hearing problem and had two hearing aids. She expressed that the hospital lost one, and that Resident #99 was admitted to the nursing facility with the other. Resident #99's family member was very upset that the window visit did not go well, and is upset that Resident #99 was upset because she could not communicate effectively either with the phone that was provided and from staff not knowing or finding her hearing aid (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 106086 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 20 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 106086 B.

Findings included: On 10/27/2020 at 1:18 p.m. Resident #99 was observed seated in her wheelchair next to her bedside. The observation revealed the resident was utilizing an indwelling catheter, which was positioned under her seat. Approximately six inches of tubing was observed lying on the floor. Her left heel, which was in a red sock, was observed touching the tubing. An activities staff member, Staff A, was observed in the room assisting the resident while seated in her wheelchair. She transferred the resident from her room down the hall approximately fifty feet to the 700- hall dining room exit door. The indwelling catheter tubing was observed dragging on the carpeted floor from the room to the dining room. While seated in her wheelchair, Resident #99 was continuously rocking back and forth using her feet, and consequently stepping on the catheter tubing with the back of her left heel. Staff A, at 1:36 p.m., was observed to remove Resident #99 from the family window visit in the 700-hall dining room and proceeded to push the resident, while seated in her wheelchair, back to her room, approximately fifty feet. During the transfer, the catheter tubing was observed dragging on the floor beneath Resident #99's wheelchair.
