On 8/27/24 at 1:07 PM. surveyor and V8 (Maintenance Director) toured throughout the facility taking random room temperatures. R69's room temp was 80.6 degrees (relative humidity was not relayed at that time and was not documented). On 8/28/24 at 11:30 AM, V23 (Concerned party) said administrator in training is aware of air conditioning issues and said R1's side of the facility has air conditioning issues. Concerned party said this has been an issue since May. Concerned party said air conditioning issues should have been addressed by now. On 8/28/24 at 9:18 AM, R69 said the air conditioner in his room doesn't work thus he was not feeling well. R69 said he was nauseous and had loss of balance. On 8/29/24 at 9:22 AM, V1 (Administrator) said the room temperature should not be higher than 80 degrees. V1 said V8 is responsible for documenting temperatures and relative humidity on extreme heat days. V1 said he did not see relative humidity documented on the temperature log sheet for 8-26-24 and 8-27-24 (Extreme Heat Days). On 8/29/24 at 10:36 AM, V8 (Director of Maintenance) said he did check the relative humidity on Monday and Tuesday (Extreme Heat Days) however V8 did not document relative humidity in the temperature. V8 said the humidity affects extreme heat and will make the environment more stuffy or uncomfortable for the resident. V8 said room temperatures should be below 80 degrees. Extreme High Temperature Guideline (revised 4/3/24) documents: Should the temperature index for relative humidity and temperature in this facility rise above 80 degrees, the facility shall implement the appropriate high temperature procedures. Temperature Log dated August 2024 does not document relative humidity levels for 8/26/24 and 8/27/24 (extreme heat days) as verified by Administrator and Director of Maintenance.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to implement their appropriate extreme high temperature policy and procedures in the facility. This deficiency affects two (R103 and R69) of three residents in the sample of 23 reviewed for Safe and comfortable resident environment.

The facility failed to implement its policy on investigating and reporting resident's incident. The facility failed to assess accurately a resident who smokes in the facility. This deficiency affects all four (R6, R7, R103 and R106) residents in the sample of 23 reviewed for Resident safety.
Findings include: 1. On 8/27/24 at 11:58AM, Observed R7 lying in bed, on semi-Fowlers position. She has oxygen via nasal cannula. Her bed is in high position.
