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.
Based on interview and record review the facility failed to honor and implement a resident's DNR (do not
resuscitate) status as indicated per the resident's POLST form (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining
Treatment form) for 1 of 3 residents (R5) reviewed for advance directives in the sample of 7.The findings
include:R5's admission record showed R5 was admitted to the facility, from a local hospital, on 2/10/26.
R5's hospital discharge orders dated 2/10/26 showed R5 was a DNR. R5's admission care plan dated
2/10/26 showed R5 was cognitively impaired. R5's care plan showed no documentation related to R5's
advanced directives. R5's healthcare Power of Attorney (POA) form dated 12/8/25 showed V15 was R5's
POA. A POLST form dated 2/20/26 showed R5 was a DNR.On 2/24/26 at 10:23 AM, V15 (R5's POA)
stated, (R5) is supposed to be a DNR. They (facility) have a signed POLST form showing this, but they said
they couldn't honor the form until their (the facility's) medical director signs off on the DNR. That doesn't
make sense.A physician order dated 2/12/26 showed R5 was a Full Code. On 2/24/26 at 10:53 AM, V2
Director of Nursing (DON) stated if a resident's POLST form shows a resident is a DNR, the facility is to
honor the resident's request. V2 stated if the resident already has a POLST form signed by a physician, the
facility's medical director does not also need to sign off on the form for the form to be valid. V2 reviewed
R5's POLST form, hospital discharge orders, and current admission orders. V2 stated, I don't know why he
(R5) is a Full Code. He should be a DNR. The facility's Residents' Rights Regarding Treatment and
Advance Directives policy dated 10/13/25 showed, It is the policy of this facility to support and facilitate a
resident's right to request, refuse and/or discontinue medical or surgical treatment and to formulate
advance directives. Upon admission, should the resident have an advance directive, copies will be made
and placed in the chart as well as communicated to the staff. Any decision making regarding the resident's
choices will be documented in the resident's medical record and communicated to the interdisciplinary
team and staff responsible for the resident's care.

Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to provide daily wound treatments to a
resident's leg laceration for 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for wounds in the sample of 7.The findings
include:R1's progress notes and hospital records dated 1/23/26 showed R1 sustained a laceration to her
left lower leg while being transferred into bed by facility staff. R1 was emergently transported via ambulance
to a local hospital for an evaluation of her laceration. R1's leg laceration was repaired with nine (9) sutures.
R1 was discharged back to the facility with orders for facility staff to provide daily wound treatments and
dressing changes to R1's laceration.On 2/23/26 at 10:24 AM, R1 was seated next to V6 (R1's private
caregiver) in the activity room. A gauze dressing was noted around R1's left lower leg. No date was noted
on the dressing. V6 stated, Every day, I have to ask them (facility staff) to change her leg dressing. There
were two days, on February 11 and 12th, they didn't change her dressing at all.On 2/23/26 at 2:00 PM, this
surveyor reviewed R1's February 2026 Treatment Administration Record (TAR). A physician order dated
2/7/26 showed, Cleanse wound to LLE (left lower extremity) with wound cleanser. Cover with xeroform
(bandage), maxorb (bandage), abdominal pad, and wrap with kerlix dressing, every day shift. The TAR
showed no documentation that wound treatments and dressing changes were provided to R1's wound on
2/11/26 or 2/12/26. On 2/24/26 at 8:51 AM, R1 was seated in her wheelchair next to V6 (R1's private
caregiver). The gauze dressing around R1's left lower leg appeared dirty with a moderate amount of yellow
drainage noted on the undated dressing. V6 stated, I was here until 7:00 PM last night. No one changed her
dressing yesterday. On 2/24/26 at 10:00 AM, this surveyor again reviewed R1's February 2026 TAR. The
TAR showed no wound treatment or dressing change was provided to R1's left leg wound on 2/23/26. The
TAR showed new documentation, from V2 Director of Nursing (DON), that V2 had provided wound care and
a dressing change to R1's leg wound on 2/11/26 and 2/12/26. On 2/24/26 at 10:53 AM, V2 DON stated
resident wound care treatments and dressing changes are to be completed, as ordered, by facility nursing
staff. V2 stated only the nurse completing the wound care can document that the care had been provided in
a resident's electronic medical record. When V2 was asked if she provided wound care to R1's leg
laceration on 2/11/26 and 2/12/26, as per the new documentation noted on R1's February 2026 TAR, V2
stated, No, I didn't do her wound care on those days. I was always told by corporate to never leave that
charting blank so when I saw (R1's) TAR was blank on those dates, I put my initials on those dates in her
chart last night.The facility's Wound Treatment Management policy dated 10/13/25 showed, Wound
Treatments will be provided in accordance with physician orders, including the cleansing method, type of
dressing, and frequency of dressing change.

Based on interview and record review the facility failed to safely transfer residents and in a manner to
prevent resident falls and injuries for 2 of 5 residents (R1, R3) reviewed for resident safety and supervision
in the sample of 7. This failure resulted in R1 sustaining a large leg skin laceration, during a transfer, that
required emergent transport to a local hospital for suture repair. The findings include:1.R1's progress notes
and hospital records dated 1/23/26 showed R1 sustained a laceration to her left lower leg while being
transferred into bed by facility staff. R1 was emergently transported via ambulance to a local hospital for an
evaluation of her laceration. R1's leg laceration was repaired with nine (9) sutures. R1 was discharged back
to the facility on antibiotics for the laceration and with orders to follow up with the hospital's wound care
team.R1's admission physical therapy evaluation dated 1/8/26 showed, Per consultation, patient
demonstrated fear of falling as evidenced from patient getting anxious and unable to stand with 1 person
assist despite max assistance given. Patient demonstrated severe posterior lean when attempted to stand.
Patient was able to stand with CGA (contact guard assistance) of 2 people. The evaluation showed R1
required the assistance of 2 staff for transfers and standing. On 2/23/26 at 11:16 AM, V7 Certified Nursing
Assistant (CNA) stated she was transferring R1, from her wheelchair to the bed, on 1/23/26 when R1's leg
laceration occurred. V7 stated, It was my first time taking care of her, so I didn't know how she transferred. I
went to stand her up and she started freaking out. She became frantic and panicked which made me
anxious, so I just hurried up and got her on the bed. She immediately said her leg was hurting. I pulled up
her pant leg and saw a big skin tear. My guess is that her leg got caught on the leg of the wheelchair when I
was transferring her. I should have stopped and gotten someone else to help me move her. I should have
given her time to calm down. On 2/23/26 at 2:19 PM, V12 Restorative Nurse stated to ensure R1's safety,
R1 should be transferred by two staff due to her extreme anxiety and fear of falling. On 2/23/26 at 12:11
PM, V10 Medical Director stated staff are to transfer residents in accordance with the recommendations
made by skilled therapy or restorative services. V10 stated his expectation is that residents are not injured
while being cared for by staff. 2.R3's care plan dated 11/5/25 showed R3 had history of falls in the facility.
R3 was at risk for falls due to her impaired cognition and the paralysis of her right arm and right leg due to
a previous stroke. R3 was nonverbal. The plan showed R3 required the use of a gait belt and the assistance
of one staff for transfers, standing, and ambulation. R3's fall incident report dated 1/27/26 showed R3
sustained a fall in her bathroom while being cared for by V4 CNA. R3 struck her head on the sink as she
fell. R3 complained of right leg pain post-fall. R3 was emergently transported by ambulance to a local
hospital for an evaluation. R3's hospital radiology studies were negative for any fractures or injuries. R3 was
discharged back to the facility on 1/27/26. On 2/23/26 at 2:04 PM, V4 CNA stated on 1/27/26, she assisted
R3 to a standing position, off the toilet, without using a gait belt. V4 stated, When I turned away from (R3) to
take off my gloves and wash my hands, she fell to the ground. I wasn't holding onto her at all when she
fell.On 2/23/26 at 2:19 PM, V12 Restorative Nurse stated staff are to use a gait belt when transferring R3.
The facility's Use of Gait Belt policy dated 10/13/25 showed, It is the policy of this facility to use gait belts
with residents that cannot independently ambulate or transfer for the purpose of safety.
