Findings include:1. On September 22, 2025 at 10:20 AM, R58 was in her room alert and oriented and stated that the exhaust fan in the shower down the hall from her doesn't work, and she saw sparks come from it a month ago.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that residents who smoke and require supervision for smoking were monitored closely during smoking period. In addition, facility also failed to ensure that residents are not keeping their own cigarette lighters. This applies to 6 of 8 residents (R26, R71, R75, R110, R151, R164) reviewed for smoking in the sample of 29. The findings include:On September 23, 2025, at 3:35 PM, V23 (Activity Aide) was in the dining/dayroom near the door of the back patio handing cigarettes to residents during smoke time. V23 was the only staff supervising the smoking period. Glass windows/walls with horizontal window blinds separated the dayroom from the back patio area. However, V23 was only intermittently looking outside through the glass window to monitor the residents who were smoking. R110 was observed in the back patio smoking and carrying a lighter. R110 lit up another cigarette with this lighter and then put the cigarette lighter in her pocket when she finished smoking and walked back inside the facility without surrendering the cigarette lighter to V23.On September 23, 2025, at 3:42 PM, after R110 went back inside the facility, V23 said that residents are not allowed to keep cigarette and cigarette lighter with them or in their bedroom.

They don't want residents to be tempted or to try smoking in their bedrooms. The staff should monitor the residents. The facility is supposed to have 2 staff monitoring the residents during smoke time one staff passing the cigarette while the other would be directly monitoring in the patio. However, there were times when there was only 1 staff. Staff should be lighting the cigarettes for the residents. The lighters are to be lock in the cigarette cart.On September 24, 2025, at 10:29 AM, V25 opened the cigarette cart for inspection. There were only 2 lighters in the cart which belonged to R37 and R163. These two residents were not included among the 6 residents that were observed smoking with lighters.The updated smoking assessments of R26, R71, R75, R110, R151, 164, showed that these residents may not be capable of handling/carrying any smoking materials and require supervision when smoking.R26's, R75's, R110's, 164's, most recent smoking care plan showed, Potential for safety hazard and/or injury related to smoking. Resident is non-compliant with turning in smoking materials.R71's and R151's most recent smoking care plan showed, Resident is non-compliant with turning in smoking materials. 145221 Page 13 of 19 145221 09/25/2025 Parc Joliet 222 North Hammes Joliet, IL 60435

Documented SpO? obtained September 20, 2025, shows R35 SpO? level was 90% on room air. Additional readings throughout the month of September notate that oxygen therapy was not in use during recordings of oxygen saturation. On September 23, 2025, at 9:33AM V12 (Physical Therapy Assistant) stated that R35 is on oxygen 'as needed,' and noted there is an oxygen concentrator in the therapy gym to be used if saturation drops. V12 confirmed she had not seen R35 with a portable tank.On September 24, 2025, at 1:19PM V2 (Director of Nursing) stated that portable tanks are available in the facility's oxygen supply closet and should be used by residents on continuous oxygen during transport.
