Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that the call lights of
residents are accessible as stated in the care plans. This failure has the potential to affect 3 residents (R74,
R94, and R504) reviewed for accommodation of needs in a sample of 55 residents.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 06/02/25 at 11:27am, R74 was observed at the edge of the bed and the surveyor asked R74 to use the
call light to ask staff for help. The call light could not be found and R74 did not know where to find the call
light. The surveyor went to the Nursing Station and called V5 (RN/Registered Nurse). V5 came and stated I
found it. It's here under the bed. Inquired from V5 why the call light should be within reach of the resident;
V5 stated to allow the resident to get help and to prevent falling. V5 added that she will remind the CNAs
(Certified Nurse Assistants).
R74's records reviewed are as follows:
Face sheet shows diagnoses which include but are not limited to Repeated Falls, Vascular Dementia,
Unsteadiness on Feet, Abnormalities of Gait and Mobility, Lack of Coordination, Right Foot Drop,
Osteoarthritis, and Cognitive Communication Deficit.
Care plan dated 3/21/25 states in part that R74 is at risk for falls related to Deconditioning, musculoskeletal
impairment, neurological impairment, vascular dementia with anxiety, Interventions states to be sure the
resident's call light is within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed.
Fall Risk Evaluation dated 1/28/25 shows that R74 is at high risk for falls.
Basic Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) Score is 12 out of 15 (Mild Cognitive Impairment).
Facility's Call Light Policy dated 9/1/22 states in #5: When the resident is in bed or confined to a chair, be
sure the call light is within easy reach of the resident.
On 6/2/2025 at 12:48pm, R94 was lying in bed with a clean kept appearance. R94's call light was observed
on the floor.
On 6/2/2025 at 12:51 pm, V12 (Licensed Practical Nurse-(LPN) affirmed R94's call light on the floor next to
R94's bed. V12 stated R94 doesn't use the call light so that's why we keep the door open. V12 stated R94
can fall if the call light is not within easy reach.
On 6/4/2025 at 3:36pm, V2 (Acting Director of Nursing-(ADON) stated the call light should be within easy
reach so that a resident's needs can be met. V2 stated an example is when a resident is in pain and the call
light is not in reach, there will be a delay in relieving the resident's pain if the call light is not in easy reach.
Facility's undated policy titled Answering Call Light Policy documents in part: When a resident is in bed or
confined to a chair be sure the call light is within easy reach of the resident.

walker in front of him, and R504's call light was wrapped on the bedside table behind R504 not within reach
of R504. Surveyor observed urine on the floor below R504 with his (R504) foot lying in the puddle of urine.
R504 stated, It has been over an hour that I (R504) have been waiting for help to get to chair and get
cleaned up. A nurse came in, helped me sit on the side of the bed, and said that he (nurse) would be back
once he (nurse) could find another nurse to help him (nurse). I'm sorry. This is humiliating. I'm (R504) so
embarrassed. No, I (R504) can't reach the call light over there.
R504's face sheet documents diagnoses that include but are not limited to need for assistance with
personal care; muscle weakness; fall; other abnormalities of gait and mobility; unsteadiness on feet; and
periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic left hip joint.
R504's Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score, dated 5/16/25, documents, in part, a BIMS score of
15 which indicates R504 is cognitively intact.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:05am, V11 (Certified Nurse's Assistant/CNA) stated, My resident's load is heavy
because many of them require increased surveillance and two people assistance, and they are always
short staffed. I (V11) already waited for over an hour for another CNA to help me (V11) to move the resident
from bed to chair. There is only one nurse and one other CNA working this unit. I (V11) will not risk the
resident falling by moving him (R504) by himself (V11). No, he (R504) cannot reach the call light over there.
On 6/4/25 at 12:01pm, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/DON) said, Call lights should be answered
immediately. At least go and see what the resident needs. Any staff can help a resident. Physical therapy,
social workers. You (staff) do not have to be a nurse. An hour is too much for a resident to get assistance.
Right away. Assist them (residents) right away. Waiting for an hour with sitting in urine would probably make
a resident mad and sad.

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
observations, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to provide clean bed and bath linens for
residents with the need of assistance with daily hygiene, bathing, or showers. This failure affected two
residents (R96, R504) out of three reviewed in the final sample of 55 residents, however, this failure has the
potential to affect all 93 residents living in the facility.
Findings include:
On 6/2/2025 the Census sheet provided by the facility showed 93 residents.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:00 AM, observed R504 sitting on the side of the bed, holding a walker. Underneath the
bed, observed a fresh urine-like spot on the floor and on the resident's left foot. R504 stated, that it has
been over an hour, that someone came in to help to transfer R504 from bed to the chair. R504 could not
wait longer and tried to use the urinal, could not reach it in time and had an accident. R504 stated that
R504 felt embarrassed, humiliated, and angry and did not have any clean towels or washcloths to use.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:05 AM V11 (Certified Nurse's Aide/CNA) stated the resident's wait for help for a long
time sometimes because the patient load is heavy because many of the residents require increased
surveillance and two people assistance. V11 stated that the facility is always out of towels and washcloths
and many times V11 had to use blankets to give residents bed baths. V11 stated that to cover the urine spot
until cleaned, blanket must be used, because there are no towels available on the unit.
6/2/2025 at 11:10 AM, in the 2 East Unit's Clean Linen Room, observed no towels or washcloths on the
linen carts.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:30 AM R96 stated that sometimes the facility runs out of towels and washcloths and
pillowcases and must use blankets instead when receiving a shower. R96 receives showers twice a week
on Wednesday and Saturday. R96 had to take towels or a pillowcase from a cart when available, because
the facility is often short of linens. R96 stated that sometimes she uses her own linens.
On 6/3/2025 at 11:45 AM in the Facility's Laundry room observed with V22 (Laundry Aide), Observed on
the top of the clean linen folding table, a total of eight towels and eight washcloths. Next to clean linen
folding table, observed three full bins of clean linen (blankets, gowns, sheets, chucks,) and one empty linen
cart with a pink cover attached to it. Surveyor observed additional room with clean linen storage area, with
four carts of clean linen on the carts, covered with pink covers. No additional towels or washcloths observed
in the additional clean linen storage room. No towels or washcloths observed in the four working dryer
machines or the clean bins. V22 stated that there is a certain amount of linen placed on the linen carts for
each unit specifically, and then the carts get distributed to each unit at 7am and again in the evening. The
amount of linen varies per unit and is written on a paper form on the bulletin board in the laundry room.
Surveyor observed, written in permanent black marker on each unit's linen cart, the amount of linen each
unit is dispersed (the same amounts that are written on the paper form on the bulletin board in the laundry
room). Evidence shows that the amount of linen that is dispersed to each unit is less than the number of
residents on each unit. V22 said, sometimes V22 does not have clean towels and other linens ready,
because V22 is

the only one laundry aide until 2pm. V22 said, that another laundry aide comes in at 2pm and works until
8pm. V22 does not have enough time or help to wash and sort, fold, and disburse all linen in a timely
manner. V22 said, that the reason why the towels and wash cloths are not visible in the laundry room, is
that a full cart of fresh linen, was delivered at 7am to each unit and the dirty linen is still being washed.
On 6/3/2025 at 11:55 AM Laundry's room bulletin board sign for distribution of linens showed linen
placement as follows but not limited to 1 East 13 towels, 15 wash cloths; 2 East morning linen 10 towels, 15
wash cloths, 2 East night linen 6 towels, 10 wash cloths; 2 [NAME] linen Morning 12 towels, 20 washcloths,

On 6/3/2025 at 12:10 PM V13 (Certified Nurse's Aide/CNA), stated that since the new management took
over, there has been many changes in laundry practices. V13 stated at 7am V13 removed four washcloths
and two towels from the delivered linen cart and the other aide took the rest, which was about the same
number of towels and washcloths. V13 affirmed that the facility is often short on linens, especially towels
and washcloths and that since the new changes in laundry staff (now only one person working), it got
worse. V13 must often call for more linens, sometimes must leave the unit and go to the laundry room and
try to obtain more linens. V13 also stated that a few times, when V13 went to obtain more linens from the
laundry room, the laundry room did not have the linens needed.
On 6/3/2025 at 14:34 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated that there should be clean linen observed and available
on every unit. V1 wasn't aware of not having towels or washcloths available. Observed two linen carts
brought up by the maintenance personnel by the conference room. One cart was half empty with clean
linen, including five towels and four washcloths, the second cart had only sheets, blankets, and gown on it,
halfway full. When asked about the number of available towels and washcloths for residents on the clean
linen carts coming from laundry, V1 stated that the amount gets refilled as needed, the laundry aide
delivers more linen to the units, when needed.
On 6/4/2025 at 11:19 AM V1 (Administrator) stated, that, the bulletin board signs used for stocking the linen
carts in the laundry room, were made prior V1's start at the facility. V1 was not aware that the linen carts
were stocked with the limited number of towels and other linens as shown on the bulletin board signs in the
laundry room. V1 stated that each resident should be provided two towels and two washcloths. V1 provided
document that listed linen inventory summary as of 6/4/2025.
On 6/4/2025 at 12:10 PM V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/ADON) stated that to provide a resident with a
bed bath, a minimum of four bath towels and four washcloths are necessary to use. There should be a
separate washcloth used for face and arms and resident's chest and lower extremities. V2 stated that the
linen gets delivered in the morning, but there is not enough to give bed baths for all the residents.
On 6/4/2025 at 14:20 PM V24 (Maintenance Director), stated that when more linen is need, the staff should
call the maintenance, or the laundry and the linen would be brought up to the unit. V24 also stated that
often the linen gets discarded to trash bins and therefore some linen gets locked in the storage room. V24
was not aware of no towels and washcloths not available on 6/2/2025.

Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Based on observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure that one (R504) resident
who depends on staff assistance for ADL (Activities of Daily Living) care was provided incontinence care
and transfer assistance in a timely manner, demonstrating inadequate care in a sample of 55 residents.
This failure resulted in R504 suffering psychosocial harm stating feelings of humiliation and
embarrassment.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 06/02/25 at 11:00am, R504 was observed, in his (R504) room, sitting on the side of bed with a walker in
front of him, and R504's call light was wrapped on the bedside table behind R504 not within reach of R504.
Surveyor observed urine on the floor below R504 with his (R504) foot lying in the puddle of urine. R504
stated, It has been over an hour that I (R504) have been waiting for help to get to chair and get cleaned up.
A nurse came in, helped me sit on the side of the bed, and said that he (nurse) would be back once he
(nurse) could find another nurse to help him (nurse). I'm sorry. This is humiliating. I'm (R504) so
embarrassed.
R504's face sheet documents diagnoses that include but are not limited to need for assistance with
personal care; muscle weakness; fall; other abnormalities of gait and mobility; unsteadiness on feet; and
periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic left hip joint.
R504's Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score, dated 5/16/25, documents, in part, a BIMS score of
15 which indicates R504 is cognitively intact.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:05am, V11 (Certified Nurse's Assistant/CNA) stated, My resident's load is heavy
because many of them require increased surveillance and two people assistance, and they are always
short staffed. I (V11) already waited for over an hour for another CNA to help me (V11) to move the resident
from bed to chair. There is only one nurse and one other CNA working this unit. I (V11) will not risk the
resident falling by moving him (R504) by himself (V11).
On 6/4/25 at 12:01pm, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/DON) said, Any staff can help a resident. Physical
therapy, social workers. You (staff) do not have to be a nurse. An hour is too much for a resident to get
assistance. Right away. Assist them (residents) right away. Waiting for an hour with sitting in urine would
probably make a resident mad and sad.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to follow physician orders for obtaining resident
weights for a resident with known weight loss and congestive heart failure. This failure affects 1 resident
(R80) in a sample of 55.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
R80's face sheet documents in part a diagnosis of hypertensive heart disease and heart failure.
R80's care plan identifies that R80 has a history of weight loss and is on diuretic medications that may
cause weight fluctuations.
R80's physician orders documents in part an active order (4/24/25) for Heart Failure Order Set- Weight
every morning; Call MD if gain wt (weight) of 2 lbs (pounds)/1day and 5 lbs/1 week. one time a day every

Review of R80's weights for 5/2025 documents in part that R80's weight was collected on 5/5/2025. R80's
weight was not documented again until 5/21/2025 (16 days later).
On 6/4/2025 at 11:16 AM, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing) affirmed that V2 is familiar with R80. V2 stated
that R80 has a history of weight loss and heart failure. V2 reviewed R80's physician order for weights and
affirmed that the order reads both every day and on Tuesdays and Thursdays. V2 stated, I think it is
supposed to be done on Tuesdays and Thursdays. V2 reviewed R80's weights and affirmed that the weights
were not completed per the physician order and no weights were obtained between 5/6/2025 and
5/20/2025. V2 stated the purpose of the obtaining daily weights for a heart failure patient is to ensure and
monitor for exacerbations which can be identified by frequent weighing of the patient. No further weights for
R80 during the date range of 5/5/2025-5/21/25 were provided prior to the exit of the survey.

On 6/3/25 at 11:05am, R74 was observed in the room sitting in the wheelchair without a cushion to relieve
pressure. Again, on 6/3/25 at 12:02pm, R74 was observed still in the same wheelchair without a cushion. At
this time, V5(RN/Registered Nurse) was called to see R74. V5 stated that a cushion is needed to prevent
pressure ulcer and that she (V5) will get a cushion for R74's wheelchair.
Residents Affected - Few
R74's records reviewed are as follows:
Face sheet shows diagnoses which include but are not limited to Vascular Dementia, Unsteadiness on
Feet, Abnormalities of Gait and Mobility, Lack of Coordination, Right Foot Drop, Osteoarthritis, and
Cognitive Communication Deficit.

MDS (Minimum Data Status) dated 4/11/25 states that R74 uses wheelchair, and that R74 is at risk of
developing pressure ulcer.
Basic Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) Score is 12 out of 15(Mild Cognitive Impairment).
Facility's policy on Pressure ulcer prevention states in part:
Support Surfaces and Pressure Redistribution:
1.Select appropriate support surfaces based the resident's risk factors, in accordance with current clinical
practice.
Device-Related Pressure Injuries:
1. Review and select medical devices with consideration to the ability to minimize tissue damage, including
size, shape, its application and ability to secure the device.
2. Monitor regularly for comfort and signs of pressure-related injury.
3. For prevention measures associated with specific devices, consult current clinical practice guidelines.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the low air loss mattress
was set appropriately for 1 resident (R66), failed to ensure the low air loss mattresses were not layered with
multiple layers for 2 (R52 and R66) residents; and failed to ensure a resident's wheelchair has cushion for 1
(R74) resident. These failures affected 3 (R52, R66, and R74) residents reviewed for pressure ulcer
prevention and treatment in the total sample of 55 residents.
Findings include:
On 06/02/25 at 11:10 AM, R52 was lying on a low air loss mattress. This surveyor requested V6 (Agency
Licensed Practice Nurse) to check how many layers were between the low air loss mattress and R52. With
assistance from V7 (Certified Nursing Assistant) V6 counted the layers and stated he (R52) was using an

in case, the incontinence brief leaks.
On 06/02/25 at 11:18 AM, V6 stated he (R52) is being changed every 2 hours. There is no purpose of
placing the folded blanket underneath him.
Residents Affected - Few
On 06/02/25 at 11:48 AM, R66 was lying on low air loss mattress. The low air loss mattress setting was
between 320lbs and 400lbs. V6 stated the pointer (of the dial) is close to 320. I would say the low air loss
mattress is set at 340lbs. This surveyor requested V6 to check how many layers between R66 and the low
air loss mattress. V6 stated she has a flat sheet that is twice folded making it 4 layers, there is another flat
sheet, and she is using incontinence brief. Total of 6 layers.
On 06/04/2025 at 9:41am, V2 (Assistant Director Of Nursing) stated the setting of the low air loss mattress
should be based on the resident's weight. It will not work as it should if setting is higher than the resident's
weight because it will be hard like a board and defeats the purpose of the low air loss mattress. The
resident should be layered with just a flat sheet and incontinence brief. For the same reason, multiple layers
defeats the purpose of the low air loss mattress.

Findings include:
On 06/02/25 at 11:48 AM, R66 had a G-Tube feeding on going with Jevity 1.5 rate of 50cc/hour. This
surveyor requested V6 (Agency Licensed Practice Nurse) to check for the label on the container of the
piston syringe. V6 stated it is not labeled. V6 stated the container should be labeled to know how old the
piston syringe is for infection control.
On 06/02/2025 at 11:49am, there was a gallon of [NAME] Choice distilled water at R66's nightstand. V6
stated we use it for flushing her g-tube. This surveyor requested V6 to check for the open date. V6 stated it
is not labeled with the date it was opened. It should be labeled with the date it was opened so we know
when this was opened.
On 06/03/2025 at 12:59pm, V21 (Regional Nurse Consultant/Infection Preventionist) stated the piston
syringe should be labeled with the date it was provided to know when it should be replaced. Inquiring about
labeling and dating of gallon of distilled water use for flushing g-tube. V21 stated the expectation is anything
that is opened should be labeled with the date it was opened for infection control.
On 06/04/2025 at 9:43am, V2 (Assistant Director Of Nursing) stated we use piston syringe for med pass
and with use, there'll be an accumulation of thick substance on the piston syringe. It is expected of staff to
change the piston syringe daily and to label the container with the date it was changed so we know when it
was changed for infection control.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the nasal cannula was
labeled with the date changed for 1 (R26) resident; failed to follow the prescribed oxygen flow rate for 2
(R26 and R42) residents; and failed to ensure oxygen was delivered to 1 (R12) resident. These failures
affected 3 (R12, R26, and R42) residents reviewed for oxygen therapy in the total sample of 55 residents.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
On 06/02/2025 at 11:41am, R12 was using a nasal cannula, the tubing was connected to a humidifier bottle
via an oxygen concentrator. The humidifier bottle was filled with water. No bubbles noted in the humidifier
bottle. The concentrator regulator was set at 3liters per minute. This was pointed out to V6 (Agency
LPN/Licensed Practical Nurse). V6 stated she (R12) is not assigned to me. V6 checked the humidifier bottle
and stated there is no bubbles because the oxygen tubing is not screwed tightly to the humidifier bottle. V6
was then observed unscrewing and screwing the oxygen tubing to the humidifier bottle with multiple
attempts until bubbles appeared in the humidifier bottle. V6 stated now it is fixed. No bubbles in the
humidifier bottle means no oxygen is delivered to the resident.
On 06/04/2025 at 9:45am, V2 (Assistant Director Of Nursing) stated we use humidifier when we administer
oxygen via an oxygen concentrator. The humidifier bottle should have bubbles to ensure oxygen is delivered
to the resident. if there is no bubbles, it means no oxygen was delivered to the resident.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based upon observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure that sufficient nursing staff
were available to meet the needs for one residents (R504) in the sample of 55 residents. These failures
have the potential to affect all 24 residents on 2 East.
Findings include:
On 6/3/2025 at 12:07PM, V12 (LPN/Licensed Practical Nurse), stated that current census for the 2 East
unit is 24 residents.
On 06/02/25 at 11:00am, R504 was observed, in his (R504) room, sitting on the side of bed with a walker in
front of him, and R504's call light was wrapped on the bedside table behind R504 not within reach of R504.
Surveyor observed urine on the floor below R504 with his (R504) foot lying in the puddle of urine. R504
stated, It has been over an hour that I (R504) have been waiting for help to get to chair and get cleaned up.
A nurse came in, helped me sit on the side of the bed, and said that he (nurse) would be back once he
(nurse) could find another nurse to help him (nurse). I'm sorry. This is humiliating. I'm (R504) so
embarrassed.
R504's face sheet documents diagnoses that include but are not limited to need for assistance with
personal care; muscle weakness; fall; other abnormalities of gait and mobility; unsteadiness on feet; and
periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic left hip joint.
R504's Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score, dated 5/16/25, documents, in part, a BIMS score of
15 which indicates R504 is cognitively intact.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:05am, V11 (Certified Nurse's Assistant/CNA) stated, My resident's load is heavy
because many of them require increased surveillance and two people assistance, and they are always
short staffed. I (V11) already waited for over an hour for another CNA to help me (V11) to move the resident
from bed to chair. There is only one nurse and one other CNA working this unit. I (V11) will not risk the
resident falling by moving him (R504) by himself (V11).
On 6/3/2025 at 12:10pm, V13 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA), worked at the facility for 2 years, stated
that since the new management took over, there has been many changes in laundry, supplies, staffing. V13
stated that this morning there are two CNA's working and two nurses on the unit with 24 residents, but it is
not the standards. It is because the agency (Illinois Department of Public Health) is in the building. Normally
there would be only one nurse. The two aides must work together effectively to help residents as much as
they can, but sometimes the residents will have to wait for a long time for help. It might be even longer than
an hour of wait on occasion. V13 stated that the work would be much better if there were three aides and
two nurses, because the units are spread into three different hallways and sometimes it's hard-to-get help.
On 6/4/25 at 12:01pm, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/DON) said, 2 East should always have 2 nurses
and 2 CNAs for at least am shift (AM: 7:00am to 7:00pm) Sometimes, it is hard to find coverage, especially
when there is a call off. Sometimes, we (nurses/CNAs) work short. I (V2) have to fight with the owner to
raise the hourly rate to get agency nurses to pick up shifts. Any staff can help a resident. Physical therapy,
social workers. You (staff) do not have to be a nurse. An hour is too much for a resident to get assistance.
Right away. Assist them (residents) right away. Waiting for an

delivering the lunch tray to R21.
On 6/2/2025 at 12:23pm, V13 stated I wash my hands after I pass the trays. V13 was asked if V13 uses
hand sanitizer when passing trays. V13 stated I used hand hygiene. V13 was made aware V13 was
observed passing several residents trays without using hand sanitizer. V13 stated hand hygiene is used to
prevent infection.
On 6/3/2025 at 12:07PM, V12 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN), stated that current census for the 2 East
unit is 24 residents.
On 6/2/2025 at 10:55am, surveyor observed no hand sanitizer: on or in any of the PPE (personal protective
equipment) bins outside resident's room, on the walls in the hallway, on the 2 East Unit nurse's station, or in
the resident's room.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:05am V11 (Certified Nurse's Assistant/CNA) stated that the facility does not provide
them with enough hand sanitizers, usually only one bottle placed at the nurse's station and the facility also
tends to be out of hand soaps in the resident's bathrooms often.
On 6/3/2025 at 10:44 AM, V21 (Infection Preventionist/IP) stated that hand hygiene is an ongoing project,
facility has monthly meeting and IP is part of morning clinical huddles. Expectation for staff is to use hand
gel sanitizer or soap and water, and wash hands between residents. Hand gel sanitizers should be on the
PPE carts, and at nurse's station, and the smaller pocket size bottles should be available for the staff to
carry in pockets. V21 said that hand sand sanitizer and hand hygiene stations should be readily accessible
for the employees and visitors to prevent the spread of infection.
On 6/3/2025 at 12:10pm, V13 (Certified Nurse's Assistant/CNA), stated that the facility does supply hand
sanitizer but is only one small bottle per nursing station that is located so far from the end rooms, that the
hand washing is harder to do. The facility does not provide hand sanitizers inside the PPE carts nor pocket
size for employees to carry with them.
On 6/4/2025 at 12:15pm, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/ADON) stated that hand sanitizing gel should be
provided by the facility when needed, but sometimes when ordered, the supplies are not received.
Occasionally the staff will have to purchase hand sanitizing gel themselves in the store nearby. V2 stated
that the facility used to carry hand sanitizers on the walls of the facility but were removed due to malfunction
and breakage. V2 stated that there is usually one bottle of hand sanitizing gel in the nursing station, and the
staff can wash the hands in the washroom. V2 affirmed that sometimes it is very inconvenient to not have
the ability to have handwashing supplies nearby and it makes it more challenging for staff to perform hand
hygiene if they need to perform care in rooms on the far end of the hallways. V2 stated that the lack of
supply could lead to spread in infection due to staff not washing their hands as often.

Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and
the public.
Based on observation, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to clean the lint screens thoroughly,
to provide a safe environment for the residents of the facility. This failure has the potential to affect all 93
residents living at the facility.
Findings include:
On 6/2/2025 the Census sheet provided by the facility showed 93 residents living in the facility.
On 6/3/2025 at 11: 50 AM a tour of facility's Laundry room was completed with V22 (laundry aide) and
follow observations were noted: Dryer #1 had copious amount of white fluffy lint on the floor, underneath
the filter trap. The filter was bulging and overfilled with lint. Dryer #2 had also overfilled lint trap and some
white fluffy lint on the floor underneath the trap. Dryer # 3 was not in use and out of order, but it did contain
a full lint trap. Dryer #4 lint filter was overfilled with lint and bulging, and white fuzzy lint was on the floor
underneath the lint trap.
On 6/3/2025 at 11:55 AM V22 stated, that the lint traps should be cleaned twice on his shift at 11 AM and
2PM and again, when the next laundry aide comes and cleans the traps around 5pm. V22 stated that V22
did not get chance to clean the lint traps today. V22 affirmed that cleaning of the lint traps under the dryers
is important, so clothes would dry better and because the trapped lint could be a potential hazard for a fire.
6/4/2025 at 14:20 PM V24 (Maintenance Director), stated that V24 is responsible for maintaining and
supervision of laundry machines working properly. The laundry aides are responsible for cleaning the
dryer's lint traps and V24 provides education and training for them. V24 stated that the lint traps should be
cleaned daily at 11am and 2pm by the day shift and 8pm by the evening shift laundry aide. The cleaning of
the lint tramps is important because the accumulation of the lint could potentially cause a fire and put the
whole facility and all residents in danger. Also, empty lint trap helps with proficiency and effective drying of
laundry.
On 6/5/2025 at 11:13 AM V1 (Administrator) in the email stated that all equipment are covered under our
maintenance policy as provided.
Facility's Laundry Aide Job Description documents in part that, the laundry aide is responsible for ensuring

Make sure there is a pest control program to prevent/deal with mice, insects, or other pests.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to maintain an effective pest control
that eliminated black flying insects in the kitchen. This failure has the potential to affect all 93 residents in
the facility.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
On 6/2/2025 at 11:04am, a garbage can stored near the dry storage room was observed without a lid giving
off a foul smell and several small black insects flying around the opening.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:06 am, V3, (Dietary Manager-(DM) stated, this has been a problem since I started
working here, this is fruit fly central. V3 affirmed the garbage can had a foul odor, did not have a lid on it
was filled with garbage and black insects flying in and
around the garbage can. V3 stated pest control treated the kitchen for fruit flies 3 weeks ago.
On 6/4/2025 at 12:14 pm, V1 (Administrator) stated the Facility's Maintenance Director is responsible for
pest control. V1 stated V1 was not aware of a pest control problem in the kitchen until yesterday when it
was brought to his attention by the Dietary Manager. V1 stated V1 provided the pest control reports to the
survey team. V1 stated V1 was not aware. V1 stated pest control services are provided to the facility once a
week for preventive measures.
On 6/4/2025 at 1:26pm V24 (Maintenance Director) stated pest control comes out every 2 weeks or twice a
month on a regular basis regardless of if there is a pest control problem within the facility. V24 stated no
one has brought it to his attention regarding fruit flies in the kitchen. V24 stated V24 noticed some fruit flies
primarily in the dish room but no one has brought it to V24's attention of sightings of fruit flies anywhere
else in the building. V24 stated I know that fruit flies are annoying and are a nuisance. V24 stated V24
honestly don't know how long the fruit flies has been a problem here. V24 stated V24 thinks the facility
probably needs to be a little more aggressive treating the fruit flies.
Facility's Pest Control Service Inspection Report from Sentry Pest Control does not document any
treatment for fruit flies, gnats, or any flying black insects on the following preventive service dates:
1/17/2025, 1/23/2025, 2/5/2025, 2/21/2025, 3/6/2025, 3/10/2025, 4/16/2025, 4/30/2025, 5/12/2025, and

Facility's Policy titled Pest Control with a revision date of April 1, 2020, documents in part, The facility
maintains an ongoing pest control program to ensure the building and grounds are kept free of insects,
rodents, and other pests.

Develop, implement, and/or maintain an effective training program that includes effective communications
for direct care staff members.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide communication training to the staff. This
failure affects 1 resident (R354) out of 55 residents in the sample.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Record review of facility census documentation provided on 6/2/2025 documents in part that 93 residents
reside within the facility.
Review of R354's minimum data set (4/7/25) documents in part that R354's primary language is Chinese
and requires an interpreter for communication.
On 6/2/2025 at 11:40 AM, V29 (R354's Family Member) stated that R354 has difficulty communicating and
that English is not R354's first language. V29 explained that it is hard for the staff to communicate with
(R354), so I have to be here-I am here every day as much as I can be. None of them speak the language,
we speak Chinese. I am the interpreter to ensure (R354) gets the care (R354) needs.
On 6/4/2025 at 10:39 AM, surveyor requested documentation for staff training on communication.
On 6/4/2025 at 1:39 PM, V1 (Administrator) provided surveyor with 2 binders labeled In-services 2025 and
In-services 2024 and stated, all of our in-services are within that binder, if we in-serviced on it, it would be
in there.
Record review of in-servicing binders for 2024 and 2025 was completed and no training related to
communication was observed completed for staff.
On 6/4/2025 at 3:37 PM, V1 (Administrator) affirmed there is no further documentation that the facility can
produce related to communication training. V21 (Infection Preventionist, Registered Nurse, Nurse
Consultant) stated that V21 is the nurse consultant and provides multi-facility oversight. V21 stated that the
facility might have documentation in the director of nursing's office. Surveyor observed V21 and V2
(Assistant Director of Nursing) search the office and V21 stated, we don't have any other documentation.
V21 denied that there is a training schedule for required in-services and stated, we are currently working on
that.
On 6/5/2025 at 10:21 AM, V21 affirmed that there was no further documentation that the facility could
produce regarding communication training. V21 explained, Communication training is important so that staff
know how to speak with the residents verbally and non-verbally. We have residents and staff with a wide
variety of cognitive needs, communication impairments and cultural backgrounds. Communication varies
from culture to culture. In some cultures, it is normal for them to talk loudly and more shrill, while other
cultures might be offended or scared by their tone. No further documentation was provided related to
communication in-services prior to the exit of the survey.
Record review of facility assessment (6/24 through 7/25) does not identify a training need for
communication training.

Conduct mandatory training, for all staff, on the facility’s Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement
Program.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide QAPI (Quality Assurance Performance
Improvement) training to the staff. This failure has the potential to affect all 93 residents that reside within
the facility.
Findings include:
On 6/4/2025 at 10:39 AM, surveyor requested documentation for staff training on QAPI.
On 6/4/2025 at 1:39 PM, V1 (Administrator) provided surveyor with 2 binders labeled In-services 2025 and

Record review of in-servicing binders for 2024 and 2025 was completed and no training related to QAPI
was observed completed for staff.
On 6/4/2025 at 3:37 PM, V1 (Administrator) affirmed there is no further documentation that the facility can
produce related to QAPI training. V1 stated that direct care staff do not get trained on QAPI but if they have
a concern, they can tell their supervisor and they can bring it to the QAPI committee. V1 stated that the
direct care staff would not know how to submit things to the QAPI committee because our chain of
command is to tell the supervisor. V21 (Infection Preventionist, Registered Nurse, Nurse Consultant) stated
that V21 is the nurse consultant and provides multi-facility oversight. V21 stated that the facility might have
documentation of QAPI training in the director of nursing's office. Surveyor observed V21 and V2 (Assistant
Director of Nursing) search the office and V21 stated, we don't have any other documentation. V21 denied
that there is a training schedule for required in-services and stated, we are currently working on that.
On 6/5/2025 at 10:21 AM, V21 affirmed that there was no further documentation that the facility could
produce regarding QAPI training. V21 explained, The purpose of QAPI is to analyze our facility
systems/processes and improve or fix them if appropriate. QAPI is a driving force for improving care and
the direct care staff should be involved too. Direct care staff know a lot more about system processes and
what is working or what is not working. They would also be responsible for driving the needed change
identified within the QAPI committee. No further documentation was provided related to QAPI in-services
prior to the exit of the survey.
Record review of facility assessment (6/24 through 7/25) does not identify a training need for QAPI training.

ethics program for our staff members. Any staff member can call a hotline to our company and report
ethical concerns. It could be things like not following regulations or other ethical issues like accepting bribes
or tips. It is important because we can become aware of issues that affect the resident's care and staff need
to know that they can report ethical issues without fear of retailation. If they don't report it, the issues could
continue. No further documentation was provided related to compliance/ethics in-services prior to the exit of
