These failures have the potential to affect 143 residents.Findings include:The 2/16/2026 facility census includes 143 residents.On 1/14/26, IDPH (Illinois Department of Public Health) received allegations that R2 had complaints of dental pain and the facility failed to arrange a dental appointment in a timely manner.R2's (10/18/23) Physician Order Sheets include dental care as needed. R2's (8/25/23) care plan states resident has oral/dental problems related to edentulous tooth infection/pain. Interventions: Coordinate arrangements for dental care, transportation as needed/as ordered. Monitor/document/report any signs/symptoms of oral/dental problems needing attention. R2's (9/10/25) handwritten note (received by V8/Health Information Management Director from V11/Family) includes (9/17/25) follow-up for (dental) appointment - however, R2's (9/17/25) progress notes exclude dental visit and/or follow-up information.R2's (10/7/25) progress note states resident left for dental appointment. Plan of care is still ongoing [actual plan of care was excluded]. R2's diagnoses include dementia. R2's (2/5/26) BIMS (Brief Interview Mental Status) determined a score of 8 (moderate impairment).On 2/17/26 at 11:53am, surveyor inquired about concerns R2 stated I got a headache and need something for that then refused to respond to additional questions.On 2/19/26 at 2:44pm, surveyor inquired about the facility procedures for dental consults V8 (Health Information Management Director) stated Usually Social Service puts their (resident's) names on the list so they can see the dentist but if they (residents) need to go out to a specific place for tooth extraction or whatever I (V8) set up transportation for them to go. Surveyor inquired if R2 was seen by the dentist on 9/17/25 (as directed) V8 responded I didn't get that information. September 22 (2025) is the last thing she (R2) went out for. Surveyor inquired when is R2's next dental appointment? V8 replied I don't know that she has one. The last communication that I had with the daughter (V11) was 9/22/25 (roughly 5 months ago).The (October 2025-February 2026) facility dental list request excludes R2's name.On 2/19/26 at 3:22pm, V10 (Social Service Director) stated Once a resident informs us (Social Service) that they (resident) need to see a dentist and it's not emergent we (Social Service) just put em (residents) on a list until the dentist is scheduled to come in (once a month). If it's an emergent situation, we'll reach out to the dentist to come out as soon as possible. If an order is written from the dentist, we provide it to medical records and to the DON (Director of Nursing) so they know that an appointment needs to be scheduled. The dentist sends an email to Social Service, and we'll provide that to the DON. I (V10) do have a binder with the necessary documentation - moving forward. On 2/19/26 at 3:39pm, surveyor inquired about the facility process for dental consults and/or recommendations V2, Director of Nursing (DON) stated, The expectation is that every resident is screened for dental services and after the screening every resident Residents Affected - Many (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.

F 0790 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete should follow through with the treatment plan of the physician. Social Service follows the process with the physician so when the notes come in that information is uploaded in the system and gets communicated to the nursing staff, then the nursing staff will assist with getting the treatment plan followed. Surveyor inquired about staff expectations regarding dental services. V2 responded, The Nursing staff should be sending the resident out with their face sheet and orders with any concerns and upon return we (staff) should be documenting that they (residents) returned and what they returned with so we can be following up with the orders. R3's (1/5/26) BIMS determined a score of 15 (cognition intact).R3's (5/30/21) care plan states resident exhibits dental/mouth problems.

On 2/18/26 at 3:30pm, surveyor inquired why R3 wasn't fitted for dentures V1 (Administrator) stated They (dentist) weren't accepting her (R3) insurance, so I (V1) had staff call the insurance company.

On 2/19/26 at 3:11pm, surveyor inquired if R4 was enrolled for dental care at facility to try a new denture. V8 stated, No, no one gave me (V8) anything about that. So, I (V8) don't know.On 2/19/26 at 3:48pm, surveyor inquired if V2 was made aware that R4 may require new dentures per 2/10/26 consult - due to bone loss. V2 stated, I'm not aware of her needing those services.The Dental Services policy (reviewed 1/2026) states documentation by the dentist is recorded in the resident's medical record.
