What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 4 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0553 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Allow resident to participate in the development and implementation of his or her person-centered plan of care. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure six residents (R5, R6, R13, R17, R21, R29) were given the right to participate in the development and implementation of their person-centered plan of care. Findings include: On 11/2/23 at 10:15 AM, R17 stated R17 hasn't had a care plan meeting. I don't know if we are having meetings or not. There has been no social worker for two to three months. On 11/2/23 at 12:28 PM, R21 stated we have care plan meetings when we have a social worker. We don't have a social worker now. On 11/2/23 at 1:00 PM, R5 said I have never been to a care plan meeting. I have not received my care plan. I've been here two years. They may come a few days before to tell me about a meeting but then don't come get me for the meeting. They may tell me, rarely, if something has changed in the care plan. On 11/3/22 at 2:00 PM, R6 said I have only had one care plan meeting since I've been here in 5/21. They have not given me a care plan. On 11/7/23 at 9:30 AM, R13 said I have been here for over two years. I haven't had a care plan meeting. Because there is no social worker, I had to plan my own discharge. My sister hired someone to be a social worker who connected with the facility to get DME (Durable Medical Equipment) that I need. I found an apartment. On 11/7/23 at 10:00 AM, R29 said I have been here three years. I don't know if they are having care plan meetings on me. I don't receive information about planning. They used to invite me to go but they don't have a social worker. They haven't asked me to attend in a long time. On 11/7/23 at 1:13 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated with no social worker, care plans/meetings are determined by treatment plan. We (facility) have care plan meetings for specific residents. We want to make sure everything is in place for discharge. We have care plan meetings. Care plan meetings are not as often as they should be. Some residents don't want to attend care plan. We focus on residents ready for discharge and what their needs are. Care plan meetings are hands on with the resident and with family member. They are scheduled based on the ARD. Some residents have been getting their meetings but not all because I'm in-between social workers. Care plans should be done routinely. Some are done unofficially. If the resident has a meeting scheduled, they are invited.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure three residents (R12, R26, R30) have a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment. Findings include: On 11/2/23 while touring facility with V16 (Building Manager), surveyor observed: Call light fixture/plate not fully attached to the wall in room [ROOM NUMBER]. Call light functioning. Cracks, chipping/peeling paint, rust color along the baseboards in R30's bathroom; on the ceiling in the dining room on the 3rd floor; on the third-floor shower room floor. R12's television not working and does not have a remote control. On 11/3/23 while touring facility with V16, surveyor observed: Cracks, chipping/peeling paint, rust color on the second-floor shower room floor. On 11/3/22, Surveyor observed cracks, chipping/peeling paint, rust color on the ceiling over R26 bed. On 11/2/23 at 10:15 AM, R17 stated there are televisions that are not working or not working properly. There is a problem with the system according to maintenance. On 11/02/23 at 12:11 PM, R26 states R26 told a staff member about the condition of the ceiling above the bed, but nothing is being done about it. On 11/02/23 at 12:29 PM, another survey team member located in the shower room located on the second floor of the facility adjacent to room [ROOM NUMBER] with V6 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA). V6 stated there are two showers on the second floor but this is the shower room that is used by the residents to take their showers. Surveyor observed dried feces on the seat of a shower chair, black, mold-like substance in the cracks and floor seams of the shower and shower floors, and peeling paint on the shower floors. V6 stated the black mold-like substance in the shower appears to be mold and the residents do not like going near that part of the shower because they feel it is nasty. V6 states she is not sure when the shower chair was last cleaned. On 11/02/23 at 12:53 PM, R22 states R22 washes R22's body everyday but does not go into the shower room because a staff member said that it's feces in there and it's disgusting. On 11/2/23 at 12:54 PM, R12 implied with a head nod that R12's television works but R12 can't turn it on. On 11/7/23 at 1:13 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated some of the walls are stained because it's an older room. There is no mold that I'm aware of.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few leak in the ceilling. The expectation is for the building to be clean, and residents are comfortable. Some televisions are old some are new. We are constantly replacing the remotes. Sometimes the signals are bad. On 11/7/23 at 3:36 PM, V16 (Building Manager) stated I don't know what the peeling/chipping paint, rust coloring is from. I wouldn't want my family member sleeping under that. The television system is an older system. We are looking at different alternatives to fix it. Sometimes, in the past if we replace the wiring that helps. I'm not sure what the problem is. It's a very old system, still analog, I think. We had someone from the cable company come and they could not fix it. We have a few remotes downstairs. The residents are constantly losing them. On 11/7/23 at 4:10 PM, V16 stated maintenance confirmed the cracks, chipping/peeling paint, rust color on the ceiling in the third-floor dining room is due to the old roof leaking and needs to be painted. The ceiling above R26's bed is from a leaky pipe that will be fixed. Sleeping under that would not make me feel good. I do rounds throughout the building. Facility policy Homelike Environment, 6/13/22, documents in part: Staff provides person-centered care that emphasizes the residents comfort, independence and personal needs and preferences. The facility staff and management maximizes, to the extent possible, the characteristics of the facility that reflect a personalized, homelike setting. These characteristics include: clean, sanitary and orderly environment.
