What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 10 deficiencies, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident had a consistent medical order recorded resident's treatment wishes in the event of a medical emergency. This applies to 1 of 3 residents (R91) reviewed for advance directives in the sample of 29. The findings include: R91 has multiple diagnoses including COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), Alzheimer's disease, dementia with other behavioral disturbance and cerebral infarction, based on the face sheet. R91's quarterly MDS (minimum data set) dated [DATE] showed the resident was severely impaired with cognition. On [DATE] at 1:07 PM, V4 (Registered Nurse) stated in case of a medical emergency he would either check the electronic medical records and/or the binder containing the advance directives or code status of each resident in the unit, located on top of the emergency crash cart. V4 was asked to show R91's advance directive or code status. V4 opened the binder containing multiple code status documents of the residents, located on top of the emergency crash cart. Inside the front side of a transparent sheet protector was R91's signed POLST declination form dated [DATE] documenting, information was provided on Physician/Practitioner Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) and their right to voluntarily complete this form. As a result of this discussion, the resident/POA (Power of Attorney)/Guardian: had placed an X mark on, Cognitive impairment impact ability to obtain signature. Upon reading R91's POLST declination form, V4 stated based on what the said form, R91 was a full code and CPR (cardio pulmonary resuscitation) should be performed to R91 in case of a medical emergency. V4 was prompted to further check R91's documents. Inside the back side of the same transparent sheet protector was R91's signed Certification for Surrogate Decision-Making forms. On the second page of the signed Certification for Surrogate Decision-Making forms dated [DATE] showed a handwritten mark under the decisions of surrogate about life sustaining treatment showed, Withhold CPR (Surrogate and Physician must sign Request for DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) form). After V4 read the surrogate decision-making forms, V4 stated, this form says, to withhold CPR, so his (R91) code status is DNR. During the same interview, V4 stated, the two forms are very confusing referring to the POLST declination form and the surrogate decision-making forms. On [DATE] at 1:16 PM, V6 (Social Service Director) reviewed R91's electronic records and confirmed the same POLST declination form dated [DATE] and Certification for Surrogate Decision-Making forms dated [DATE] were the only scanned documents under R91's advance directive documents, which were the (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few same documents inside the advance directive binder. V6 reviewed the said two documents and acknowledged the POLST declination form was made because R91 was cognitively impaired and cannot sign the POLST form. V6 stated R91's POLST declination form meant the resident was a full code, however the surrogate decision-making forms documented withholding the CPR which meant R91 was a DNR. V6 stated there was no signed DNR form available as indicated in the surrogate decision-making forms. During the same interview V6 acknowledged R91's code status in case of a medical emergency was confusing for the nursing staff because it does not provide the specific medical order/direction to follow. V6 further stated the facility did not follow up to obtain a signed DNR for R91. On [DATE] at 9:31 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated with regards to the advance directives or code status of the residents, there should be always consistent documentation, so as not to confuse the nursing staff in case of a medical emergency. The facility's advance directives policy and procedure revised in [DATE] showed in-part under policy specifications, 7. Social Service and/or the interdisciplinary care plan team will review the resident's advance directive status as documented in the resident's record at the time of the initial care plan conference and reconfirm no changes in status are desired. The team will also conduct such reviews and reconfirmations at the time of every scheduled care plan conference. 8. If the resident's assessed decision-making capacity is altered, the resident representative will be contacted to act on the resident's behalf. If changes or revisions are required, the care plan team will initiate the necessary process to modify the status changes in the resident's record, including contact of the resident's attending physician so appropriate orders to reflect these status changes are secured. 9. Resident's advanced directive form is maintained on the nursing unit on top of the facility's crash cart and is available to staff members for reference to and consideration of in rendering care and services to residents to whom they are assigned for duty. 10. Social Service Director or designee will be responsible for maintaining/updating advance directive binder on each unit or floor.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure resident rooms were maintained free of water damage and in good repair. This applies to 7 of 7 residents (R32, R37, R50, R51, R56, R72, and R93) reviewed for homelike environment. The findings include: 1. On 10/30/23 at 10:54 AM R72's pointed to the ceiling above her bathroom sink just above the light fixture and stated, It just collapsed and it has taken a long time to get attention to it. R72 stated approximately four days ago, water began coming down through the ceiling tiles in the bathroom above the sink and light fixture above the sink. There was a large brown stain on the tile, the tile was bowed down toward the floor and there was a crack at the bottom the bowed tile. There were pieces missing from the bowed tile and one piece was resting on top of the light fixture attached to the wall above the mirror located above the sink. R51 and R93 also stated the water ran from the ceiling into the bathroom and no repair had been completed. 2. On 10/30/23 at 11:06 AM, R37 stated water had leaked through the room's ceiling into the closet of the room. R37 stated, It was just leaking everywhere. My clothes got wet. We put a bucket in the closet to catch the water! That's why our clothes in the closet are all in bags. There was a blue bucket on the floor on the left side of the closet and clothes were stored in clear plastic bags which were tied. The ceiling tiles in the closet and the bathroom were stained brown and bowed down toward the floor. R50 and R56 stated water had come from the ceiling into the bathroom and closet and caused items in the closet to get wet. On 10/31/23 at 1:00 PM with V7 (Director of Maintenance), observed clothes on the top shelf of the closet were still in clear plastic bags which were tied shut. There were magazines and paper notebooks on the top shelf of the closet which were dry but showed signs of having previously been wet and later dried as the pages were wavy. V7 stated he was not aware of the closet having had water leaking through the ceiling. V7 stated he was aware of the need to replace the ceiling tiles in the bathroom but not aware tiles in the closet needed to be replaced. On 10/31/23 at 10:00 AM, V7 (Director of Maintenance) stated the water falling into the resident rooms in the lower level were the result of residents on the upper level of the building putting paper towels into the toilets and clogging the toilets. V7 stated the residents then continue to flush the toilets and the residual water over flows and seeps down through the floor and then through the ceiling of lower-level rooms. At 12:10, V7 was repairing a toilet and stated the flush valve in the toilet needed to be replaced. V7 stated he bought a new toilet on Friday and was going to install the new toilet later in the day. V7 stated the flush valve which needed repair caused toilet tissue or paper towels to become stuck and the toilet to overflow. There was a sign in the bathroom, undated, which showed, Please hold down handle to complete flush will fix tomorrow. V7 stated some of the upper level rooms had newer toilets and any water leaking below would be the result of toilet paper or paper towels clogging the toilets. 3. Review of R32's face sheet documents a [AGE] year-old female with diagnoses includes Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertensive heart disease without heart failure, and history of falling. R32's Minimum Data Set (MDS) section C dated 8/22/23 showed R32's cognitive status to be intact.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some On 10/30/23 10:41 AM R32 stated she has had pipes dripping and sinks or toilets over flowing from above into her room. R32 pointed out the ceiling area just outside of her closet and another area of the ceiling in her closet that both have brown water like staining and black mold-like staining. R32 stated she must move her clothes to the side in her closet so they don't get wet. R32's clothes were pushed to the side clearing the area in the ceiling is stained. R32 stated she told maintenance about the leaks. R32 stated maintenance came to look at the leaks each time. R32 stated maintenance does not come back to do any repairs. On 10/31/23 12:25 PM, V7 (Maintenance Director) and surveyor went to R32's room. The ceiling tile just outside of R32's closet is a 12x12 inch white tile is almost completely black with thick mold like stains extend into the plaster of the edge of the ceiling/wall. In R32's closet there is another tile that is black similarly and some brown areas. V7 said, It look like it could be mold, and they need to be replaced. There is 3rd larger ceiling tile just past the entrance that has a large roundish brown stain about the size of a cantaloupe with some black bumpy looking spores around one edge of the brown stain. R32 was in her bed and said the last time it leaked was last week. V7 stated he has talked to R32 about the leaks in her room before. V7 stated it was his plan to open the area behind the tiles to see where water was coming from. V7 stated he is the only maintenance personnel.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to provide a comprehensive eye assessment for an eye injury sustained after a fall. This applies to 1 of 3 (R89) residents reviewed for falls in the sample of 29. Residents Affected - Few The findings include: R89's face sheet showed R89 with multiple diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type, fracture of fifth metacarpal bone left hand, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing, benign prostatic hyperplasia, dementia, extrapyramidal movement disorder, anxiety disorder, hypertensive heart disease, primary osteoarthritis left shoulder and repeated falls. R89's MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 10/18/23, showed R89 with moderate cognitive impairment, and requires assistance with toileting, bathing, dressing, and ambulates with a walker. On 10/30/23 at 10:52 AM, R89 was observed in his room. R89's right eye sclera was completely red with little white tissue evident, and the area surrounding the right eye was discolored and appeared swollen. R89 stated he had fallen while out at a local restaurant with his wife and had hit his head on the floor. R89 stated he had not seen an eye doctor since the fall. The facility reported an incident to Illinois Department of Public Health on 10/23/23 that R89 had a fall on 10/21/23 at 3:30 PM while in the community at a local restaurant. The report showed while R89 was attempting to stand, he fell forward to the floor. The report indicated the Physician had been notified of the fall on 10/21/23 at 3:30 PM, and that ice had been applied to the area. A review of the progress notes of 10/20/23 through 10/31/23 at 3:09 PM, does not show R89's Physician had been notified of the condition of the right eye or the intervention of ice being applied to the right eye. There are no progress notes documented on 10/21/23 in R89's health record. The first progress note following R89's fall on 10/21/23 is documented at 10/22/23 at 2:33 AM, and showed the right eye was discolored, swollen, and the sclera was reddened, and there was a wound above the right eye had a dressing that was changed earlier due to being saturated with blood. On 10/23/23 at 12:17 PM the progress note showed there was one adhesive strip present on a wound above the right eye and R89 complained of generalized pain. The progress note of 10/27/23 at 2:30 PM, written by V18 (RN) showed R89's right eye sclera remained with redness and R89 reported a complaint of the right eye being itchy, which was not reported to the Physician. On 11/1/23 at 2:37 PM, V2 (DON) stated R89's right eye had not been examined by either an optometrist, ophthalmologist, or Physician since his right eye sclera became reddened, swollen and discolored after the fall on 10/21/23. V2 stated R89's vision is not impaired because he asked the resident to close his left eye (non-injured eye) and asked R89 if he could see V2's two fingers he was holding up with his right eye only. V2 concluded that since R89 responded he could see V2's fingers, R89's vision was not impaired. V2 stated he did not know if there was bleeding inside the eye or what type (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 145715 If continuation sheet Page 5 of 21 Printed: 05/15/2026 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 145715 B.

F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to follow physician's order with regards to administration of continuous oxygen and labeling of the oxygen tubing. The facility also failed to use of the oxygen humidity bottle per policy and procedure. This applies to 1 of 1 resident (R7) reviewed for oxygen therapy in the sample of 29. Residents Affected - Few The findings include: R7 had multiple diagnoses including Parkinsonism, dementia without behavioral disturbance and chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia, based on the face sheet. R7's quarterly MDS (minimum data set) dated 9/19/23 showed the resident was cognitively intact and required extensive assistance from the staff with most of his ADLs (activities of daily living). On 10/30/23 at 10:58 AM, R7 was in bed, alert and verbally responsive. R7 had the ongoing continuous oxygen at 3 liters per minute using oxygen concentrator. R7's oxygen tubing had no label to determine when the oxygen tubing was last changed. R7 stated the inside of his nose was dry. R7's oxygen concentrator had no humidity bottle in place. On 10/31/23 at 10:57 AM, R7 was inside the unit main dining room. R7 was sitting in his wheelchair, alert and verbally responsive. R7 had ongoing oxygen at 3 liters per minute via nasal cannula using a portable oxygen tank. At 11:15 AM, V4 (Registered Nurse) stated he was the assigned nurse that morning for R7. V4 stated he changed and applied the oxygen setting of R7's oxygen from the concentrator to portable tank. During the same interview while observing R7, V4 acknowledged R7's continuous oxygen via nasal cannula was set at 3 liters per minute using the portable oxygen tank. R7's Physician order report dated 5/2/23 showed an order for, Oxygen: At 4 liters per nasal cannula continuous. The same order report showed an order dated 5/2/23 for, Oxygen: Change tubing and mask weekly and PRN. (label). Once a day on [Sunday]. R7's active care plan initiated on 4/6/23 showed the resident, requires oxygen therapy to relieve hypoxia. He has diagnosis of respiratory failure. The same care plan showed multiple approaches including, Administer oxygen as ordered. On 11/1/23 at 9:28 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated the nurses should follow the physician's order for oxygen administration because oxygen therapy is considered as medication. V2 stated humidity bottle should also be used during oxygen therapy to reduce the dryness inside the nose. V2 further stated the oxygen tubing should be labeled to make sure it was replaced on a weekly basis. The facility's oxygen administration policy and procedure last revised in March 2004 showed, The purpose of this procedure is to provide guidelines for safe oxygen administration. The policy and procedure showed in-part under preparation, 1. Verify there is a physician's order for this procedure. Review the physician's orders or facility protocol for oxygen administration. Under equipment and supplies it showed in-part, The following equipment and supplies will be necessary when performing this procedure 3. Humidifier bottle. The same policy and procedure showed in-part under steps in the procedure, 5. Start the flow of oxygen as ordered 7.

F 0697 Provide safe, appropriate pain management for a resident who requires such services. Level of Harm - Actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to comprehensively assess/evaluate and inform the physician of the residents complaint of pain to help manage existing pain and/or prevent pain. This applies to 2 of 6 residents (R38 and R105) reviewed for pain management in the sample of 29. Residents Affected - Few This failure resulted in R38 verbalizing complaint of worsening pain for two consecutive days (10/30/23 and 10/31/23). R38's frequent pain level of eight, documented in the resident's October 2023 medication flowsheet pain scale. The findings include: 1. R38 had multiple diagnoses including COPD, dementia without behavioral disturbance, type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic cataract and generalized osteoarthritis, based on the face sheet. R38's significant change in status MDS (minimum data set) dated 9/27/2023 showed the resident was moderately impaired with cognition and required extensive to total assistance from the staff with most of his ADLs (activities of daily living). On 10/30/23 at 10:58 AM, R38 was sitting in his reclined wheelchair inside his room. R38 was alert and verbally responsive. R38 complained of pain all over his body. V4 (Registered Nurse) was present and asked R38 to express his pain level scoring between zero to ten (0-10), ten being the worst possible pain. R38 responded his pain level was ten. V4 stated R38 received his ordered Tramadol medication at around 9:30 AM for chronic pain. On 10/31/23 at 10:51 AM, R38 was sitting in his reclined wheelchair, inside his room. R38 was alert and verbally responsive. R38 complained of pain all over his body and when V4 asked R38 for his pain level, the R38 responded 10/10 (10 being the worst). V4 stated R38 received his ordered Tramadol medication at around 8:00 AM for chronic pain. V4 offered R38 his ordered topical analgesic heat rub to be applied, R38 agreed and stated to apply the said topical analgesic on his body specifically on his back. R38's active Physician order report showed an order dated 6/14/23 for, Tramadol 50 mg, 1 tablet for pain, neck and back pain, twice a day (8:00 AM, 4:00 PM). Further review of R38's order report showed an order dated 11/2/22 for, Bengay ultra strength cream 4-30-10%, small amount topical, apply to neck and knees, may apply patch, every shift (Shift 1, Shift 2, Shift 3). R38's October 2023 medication flowsheet showed the R38's Tramadol 50 mg was administered on 10/30/23 and 10/31/23 at 8:00 AM. The same October 2023 medication flowsheet showed the resident's Bengay ultra strength cream was applied on 10/30/23 and 10/31/23 on all the three shifts. There was no documentation with regards to the effectiveness of the Tramadol medications and the topical analgesic cream. Further review of R38's October 2023 medication flowsheet showed the resident's pain scale was being assessed every shift (shift 1, shift 2 and shift 3). The pain scale assessment showed evidence R38's pain scale was scored eight, 19 times during shift 1 (6:30 AM-2:30 PM), on 10/2, 10/3, 10/6, 10/7, 10/8, 10/9, 10/11, 10/12, 10/13, 10/14, 10/16, 10/17, 10/20, 10/21, 10/22, 10/23, 10/26, 10/27 and 10/28/23.

The EA does not list specific components of the facility's water system, for instance, the ice maker and eye wash stations that may be vulnerable to the growth of water borne pathogens. Page 3 of the EA shows the following: because Legionella amplifies in warm (25-42 °C), stagnant water, it is useful to document temperatures, Chlorine residuals, and Ph in hot potable water.
