F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to develop and implement restorative range of motion programs for two of two residents (R4 and R6) reviewed for functional limitations in range of motion in the sample of 28. Findings include: 1. R4's MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessments dated 10/6/24 and 7/7/24 document R4 is cognitively intact, has functional limitations in range of motion to one side of the upper and lower extremities, and does not receive therapy, range of motion, splint/brace assistance, or any restorative programs. R4's current Care Plan documents R4 has the diagnoses of Hemiplegia affecting the left nondominant side and Pain. This same Care Plan does not address R4's limitations in range of motion to the left upper and lower extremities. On 11/24/24 at 10:07 AM R4 was sitting in his wheelchair. R4's left hand was in a closed fist with his fingers facing inward towards his palm with no splint or assistive device. R4 was unable to open his left hand. R4 stated he does not receive any range of motion exercises and the staff do not put a roll or splint in his left hand. R4 stated he would like to receive range of motion exercises. 2. R6's MDS Assessments dated 11/10/24 and 8/11/24 document R6 is cognitively intact, has functional limitations in range of motion to both sides of the upper extremities, does not receive therapy, range of motion, splint/brace assistance, or any restorative programs. R6's current Care Plan documents R6 has the diagnoses of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Limited Mobility. This same Care Plan does not address R6's limitations in range of motion to the upper extremities. On 11/24/24 at 10:09 AM R6 was sitting in her recliner in her room watching television. Both of R6's hands were in closed fists with her fingers facing inward towards her palms with no splint or assistive devices. R6 stated she has not had exercises in over a year and would like staff to do exercises with her. On 11/25/24 at 11:34 AM V4 (Agency CNA/Certified Nursing Assistant) stated, (R4 and R6) do not receive range of motion or any type of restorative programs that I am aware of. I take care of (R4 and R6) full time. On 11/25/24 at 12:05 PM V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, We (the facility) have not had a restorative nurse or CNA for a few months now. (R4) and (R6) do not receive any restoratives or range of motion and probably should. The Restorative Nursing Services policy dated 11/2024 documents Residents will receive restorative nursing care as needed to help promote optimal safety and independence. Policy Interpretation and Implementation: 1. Restorative nursing care consists of nursing interventions that may or may not be accompanied by formalized rehabilitative services (e.g. (example) physical, occupational or speech therapies). 3. Restorative goals and objectives are individualized and resident-centered and are outlined in the resident's plan of care. 5. Restorative goals may include, but not limited to supporting and assisting the resident in: a. adjusting or adapting to changing abilities; b. developing, (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 146111 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 14 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 146111 B.

The ROM (Range of Motion) Contracture Care Policy and Procedure dated 11/2024 documents It is the policy of this facility that residents will be assessed on admission and quarterly, or more often as a change of condition warrants, for risk factors for development of contractures. An individualized ROM program may be developed based on the resident's unique assessed risk factors and involve formalized therapy and/or restorative nursing, as applicable. This program will be reflected in the interdisciplinary care plan and will be systematically and consistently followed. Key Points Formalized therapy will work closely with nursing staff, as appropriate, communicating and planning for goals and approaches so the team can be consistent in providing the care and services for maintaining joint mobility and for contracture care. An individualized plan will be based upon the comprehensive assessment and resident/representative input after discussion on risks and benefits to include interventions for staff to follow for prevention of contractures. If the purpose of ROM is other than prevention 1.e.(example), building muscle strength, Physical Therapy may assist in determining the repetition program. The program will also be modified for those residents that for whatever reason are unable to tolerate the recommended repetitions. 3. A physician's order will be obtained for physical or occupational therapy to evaluate and treat if there is any indication that the resident could benefit from these services. 4. Nursing orders can be initiated to start a preventative ROM movement program if there is no indication for formalized therapy or if there is no contradiction to the ROM movements. When in doubt, consult with physician and therapy for limitations and precautions for specific movements. 5. The nurse will review functional assessment to assure specific risk factors for contractures and contracture care are identified, addressed, and planned for. 7. When a resident has been identified as at risk for contractures and there is no indication to involve formalized therapy, the resident's name and ROM interventions will be added to the nursing tracking tool for Restorative, goals and approaches determined and care planned, and a restorative nursing flow sheet implemented. 8. When a resident has a contracture or contractures already present, formalized therapy will evaluate and work with nursing department in setting up goals and approaches for the plan that specifically addresses this individual's unique needs. 10. Individual plans for preventive ROM and contracture care will be followed as planned seven days a week or as indicated based upon assessed needs. 14.

F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure physician ordered daily weights were obtained for a resident with congestive heart failure for one of one resident (R1) reviewed for hydration in the sample of 28. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: R1's current care plan, dated 11/8/24, documents R1 has diagnoses including but not limited to: Edema, Retention of Urine, Atherosclerotic Heart Disease of Native Coronary Artery, Heart Failure, Atrial Fibrillation, Presence of Cardiac Pacemaker, Volume Depletion, Dehydration (history), Chronic Diastolic Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), Hypertensive Heart and Chronic Kidney Disease. This care plan documents I have diagnosis of Hypertension with routine medication to treat. Intervention: Weigh me as ordered. This same care plan also documents I am at risk for dehydration. I receive a diuretic medication two times a day for edema. Intervention: Weigh me as ordered 5/02/24, Daily weight for CHF. R1's Current Physician Order sheet, dated 11/26/24, documents an order for Daily weight everyday shift for CHF. This order has a start date of 5/3/2024. R1's Treatment Administration Record (TAR), dated September 2024 documents 17 scheduled daily weights were not completed. Of the 17 undocumented weights, this same TAR documents R1's weights were not completed from 9/17/24-9/25/24, totaling of nine consecutive missed weights. R1's TAR, dated October 2024, documents nine scheduled daily weights were not completed throughout the month. R1's TAR, dated November 1st-24th, 2024, documents ten scheduled daily weights were not completed over 24 days. On 11/26/24 at 10:40 AM, V3 (Certified Nursing Assistant) confirmed the CNA staff are the ones who complete resident weights. V3 stated To be honest we have a lot of nursing assistants who are agency and don't always know the routine. They may be responsible for vitals but not realize that weights are included in that. If the weight isn't done, then the nurse should be notified. I know (R1) can sometimes refuse weights or be difficult but not all of the time. I know sometimes her weights have been missed in error. On 11/26/24 at 12:20 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed that R1 does not have daily weights documented every day, as ordered. V2 stated that if R1 is refusing to be weighed or the facility staff miss a weight then documentation and physician notification should be completed and R1's medical record does not reflect that documentation related to R1's missed daily weights from September- November 2024. The facility's Weight Measurement policy, dated 11/2018, documents It is the policy of (the facility) that resident's weights are taken upon admission, re-admission, monthly and as indicated. Residents with congestive heart failure will be weighed as ordered by physician. Ordering physician will be notified of weight gains and losses of two pounds or greater in one day or five pounds or greater in one week unless other parameters are specified by their physician.

F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited. Based on Observation, Interview and Record Review, the facility failed to document a diagnosis and identify target behaviors to warrant the use of Risperidone (antipsychotic medication), complete a psychotropic medication assessment, and attempt a gradual dose reduction of Risperidone for one of three residents (R31) with a diagnosis of Dementia, reviewed for antipsychotic medications in the sample of 28. Findings include: 1. On 11/24/24 at 11:40 PM R31 was sitting in the facility's dining room in a wheelchair awaiting lunch. R31 was quiet, looking forward, smiled and did not exhibit any behaviors. On 11/25/24 at 9:15 AM, R31 was sitting in his wheelchair being pushed through the hallway of the facility. R31 was cooperative with mobility assistance throughout the building and was not exhibiting any behaviors. R31's current Physician Order sheet, dated 11/26/24, documents R31 has an order for Risperidone 0.25 milligrams (antipsychotic medication), Give one tablet by mouth two times a day for Dementia with behavioral disturbance. R31's current Care Plan, dated 11/21/24, documents R31 has diagnoses of Non-traumatic Chronic Subdural Hemorrhage, Cognitive Communication Deficit, Major Depressive Disorder, Unspecified Dementia and Insomnia. This same care plan documents I (R31) take psychotropic medication(s) related to dementia with behavioral disturbances. Interventions/Tasks: I am on behavior tracking for my verbal aggression, including but not limited to outburst of yelling out directed at others. R31's behavior summary reports for November 1-26th, 2024 document R31 is being monitored for behaviors of insomnia, verbal aggression, getting up on his own, resisting care, physical aggression, threats to staff, inappropriate verbal behaviors, depression, exit seeking and agitation. These weekly summary reports document R31 has exhibited zero behaviors for the month. On 11/26/24 at 10:08 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated Since admission in February 2024, (R31) has been resistive to cares. For a while he wanted to leave. He is not harmful to other residents or himself. (R31) has not had any dose reduction of his Risperidone due to the Psychiatrist (V17) not allowing it. We (the facility) do not have psychotropic medication assessments. I wasn't aware they needed to be done. On 11/26/24 at 10:30 AM, V3 (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated (R31) has some behaviors depending on your approach and patience that you give him. (R31) doesn't like to be told what to do. He can be aggressive with cares when staff are trying to help or get him to do something. (R31) will get up on his own and walk when he's not supposed to. He's not a threat to himself and hasn't shown signs of aggressive or psychotic behaviors towards other residents. (R31's) behaviors get more increased in the evenings as with typical dementia. When his family leaves, he wants to also leave and do the things he used to do. (R31) has more confusion in the evening.

He admitted in February 2024 and has been on the Risperidone since just after his admission. (R31) had a procedure done in May 2024 for bleeding in his brain and his behaviors are better since the surgery. At first (R31) was just angry. He would not get angry with other residents; it was mainly only with hands on care. (R31) was confused but he's gotten better and is more stable now. V10 then confirmed that aggression towards staff with cares, getting up on his own and exit seeking are not behaviors of psychosis and correlate to typical behaviors of dementia. On 11/26/24 at 12:04 PM V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed R31 had surgery in May and since then, his behaviors have lessened. V2 stated Since the procedure he's actually more tired now and he has leveled off with behaviors. The Psychotropic Medication Program policy (not dated) documents Facility staff will ensure that all psychotropic mediations are properly ordered, monitored for effectiveness, and side effects. Physicians will be notified for review of medications for possible dosage reduction according to current guidelines: the entire psychotherapeutic regimen will be taken into account when reductions are made. Purpose: To prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications. To prevent adverse effects to all residents receiving psychotropic mediations. Procedures and Key Points 1. Resident Assessment - Assessment will begin when facility staff determines the resident is exhibiting untoward behaviors that place the resident, or their peers in danger. The social service department shall be alerted when noting any untoward behavior. Upon the noting of behaviors focus charting will be initiated for ongoing assessment. The nursing staff along with the IDT will attempt to identify any potential causes for the untoward behavior. This may include but not limited to, acute health conditions, social settings, personal choices and interests, etc. (etcetera). Screening for depressive symptoms will be formally completed by 14-day assessment, quarterly, as needed, by the social services department or nursing. The family or responsible party will be notified of all significant behaviors. Behavior tracking will be instituted at this time to provide documentations of the frequency and intensity or the behavior occurrence. 2. Alternatives - The initial plan for treatment of behaviors will include such alternatives as; diversional activities, change in environment, psycho-social programming, treatment of acute medical conditions, etc. Treatment will be added to care plan. When all alternatives have been exhausted, the use of a psychotropic may be deemed necessary by the attending physician. When possible, the expertise of a psychologist or psychiatrist will be consulted. 9. Dose Reduction - Gradual dose reductions are to occur unless documented by physicians/psychiatrist that they are clinically contraindicated. (Many mental illnesses require the use of psychotropic medications). The Psychotropic Medication Policy and Procedure (not dated) documents Psychotropic medications will be utilized appropriately by working with the physicians and the interdisciplinary team through evaluations and monitoring. Standards 1. The facility will make every effort to comply with state and federal regulations related to the use of psychopharmacological medications in long term care to include regular review for continued need, appropriate dosage, side effects, risks and/ or benefits. Primary Care Physician 1. Orders for psychotropic medication only for the treatment of specific medical and/or psychiatric conditions or wen the medication meets the needs of the resident to alleviate significant distress for the resident not met by the use of non-pharmacologic approaches. 2. Documents rationale and diagnosis for use and identifies target symptoms. 5. Attempt a gradual dose reduction (GDR) decrease or discontinuation of psychotropic medications after no more than 3 (three) months unless clinically contraindicated. Gradual dose reduction must be attempted for 2 (two) separate quarters (with at least on month between attempts). Gradual dose reduction must be attempted annually thereafter or as the resident's clinical condition warrants, unless the physician has documented at least annually that this would not be indicated or in the patient's best (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 146111 If continuation sheet Page 8 of 14 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 146111 B.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure use of an effective sanitation solution and prevent spread of potential contamination to food and food preparation surfaces in the kitchen. This failure has the potential to affect all 35 residents residing in the facility. Findings include: On 11/24/24 at 11:45 AM V7 (Dietary Manager) and V8 (Dietary Cook) were in the kitchen preparing to serve lunch. At this time V8 removed a food thermometer from a storage cup containing other kitchen utensils. V8 then retrieved a folded kitchen cloth from the kitchen's storage closet and soaked the cloth in the kitchen's quaternary (bleach) sanitation bucket. V8 proceeded to wipe down the thermometer and began taking temperatures of hot food on the kitchen's steam table. V8 used the same wet cloth to clean the thermometer between each hot food item including roasted pork, sweet potatoes, mixed vegetables, and ground pork. After completing temperatures of hot items, V8 used the same cloth to clean the thermometer and checked the temperature of cold lettuce salad mixed with ranch dressing. Upon competition of all temperatures, V8 took the same wet cloth and wiped down the kitchen's metal food preparation table which contained crumbs and food particles from lunch preparation. At this time V7 (Dietary Manager) used a testing strip and checked the kitchens quaternary sanitation bucket and the result was ten PPM. At this time V8 stated I haven't changed that (sanitation solution) yet. V7 confirmed the chemical solution concentration needs to be at 50-100 PPM to be used in the kitchen when cleaning. V7 confirmed the sanitation solution at only ten PPM concentration was used to sanitize the kitchen's thermometer during the steam table food temperature checks. V7 stated We normally would use an alcohol wipe when doing the steam table temperatures, but we are out of those until more come in. That is why (V8) used the cloth. The bleach solution needs changed though because ten PPM is not effective for sanitation. The facility's (undated) Cleaning For Kitchen Staff policy, documents Basic responsibility- all dietary staff: To maintain clean worked environment. To keep work areas sanitary for food production. To inhibit the growth of bacteria and food born illness. This policy also documents Use general guidelines made by manufacturers when using chemicals. A sanitizing solution is made using water and bleach to reach a 50 PPM (Part Per Million) ratio. Check with test strips. The facility's Sanitation policy, dated 11/2022, documents The food service area is maintained in a clean and sanitary manner. All equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils are cleaned and sanitized using heat or chemical sanitizing solutions. Service area wiping cloths are cleaned and dried or placed in a chemical sanitizing solution of appropriate concentration.

F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to implement Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) and Universal Standard Precautions while providing incontinence cares to a resident with a pressure ulcer for one of 12 residents (R35) reviewed for Infection Control in the sample of 28. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: R35's current Care Plan documents R35 has a stage two pressure ulcer to his coccyx. On 11/24/24 at 9:40 AM R35's door had a sign on his door that stated, Stop. Enhanced Barrier Precautions. Everyone must clean their hands, including before entering and when leaving the room. Providers and staff must also wear gloves and a gown for the following high-contact resident care activities: Dressing, bathing/showering, transferring, changing linens, providing hygiene, changing briefs, or assisting with toileting, during device care or use, and during wound care. R35 was lying in bed and had a four-by-four gauze covering a pressure ulcer to his coccyx. During this time V3 (CNA/Certified Nursing Assistant) and V4 (CNA) were providing incontinence cares to R35. During these cares V3 and V4 were not wearing gowns. V4 applied gloves, removed R35's soiled adult brief, and washed R35's buttocks and groin area. Using the same soiled gloves opened R35's restroom door and opened R35's side table drawer looking for incontinence cream. V3 and V4 then proceeded to roll R35 over to his left side and V4 placed her soiled gloves on the back of R35's shirt while rolling R35, applied a clean adult brief, and rolled R35 to his back while using the same soiled gloves. V3 and V4 then removed their gloves, placed the gloves in a trash bag, and exited R35's room without washing their hands. On 11/25/24 at 11:00 AM V4 stated, I did not change my gloves after providing incontinence cares to (R35) and I did not wash my hands before leaving (R35's) room after doing incontinence cares. I did not wear a gown while doing (R35's) incontinence cares. I realized what I did but it was too late. On 11/25/24 at 12:05 PM V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, (V3 and V4) should have worn gowns and gloves when providing incontinence cares to (R35) since (R35) is supposed to have enhanced barrier precautions due to having a pressure ulcer. (V4) should have changed her gloves after providing incontinence care and should have washed her hands before leaving (R35's) room. The Enhanced Barrier Precautions policy dated 4/2024 documents Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBPs) are utilized to reduce the transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs) to residents. Policy Interpretation and Implementation 1. EBPs are used as an infection prevention and control intervention to reduce the transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs) to residents. 2. EBPs employ targeted gown and glove use in addition to standard precautions during high contact resident care activities when contact precautions do not otherwise apply. a. Gloves and gown are applied prior to performing the high contact resident care activity (as opposed to before entering the room). b. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is changed before caring for another resident. c. Face protection may be used if there is also a risk of splash or spray. 3. Examples of high-contact resident care activities requiring the use of gown and gloves for EBPs include: a. dressing; b. bathing/showering; c. transferring; d. providing hygiene; e. changing linens; f. changing briefs or assisting with toileting; g. device care or use (central line, urinary catheter, feeding tube, tracheostomy/ventilator, etc. (etcetera); and h. wound care (any skin opening requiring a dressing). 5 EBPs are indicated (when contact precautions do not otherwise apply) for residents with wounds and/or indwelling medical devices regardless of MDRO colonization. a.
