Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to maintain the shower room on the South Hall in a clean and sanitary condition. This has the potential to affect 23 residents residing on the South Hall. Findings include: On 12/02/24 at 10:19am, the shower room B on the South hall was observed to have an area in the corner behind the toilet where there was a significant buildup of an unknown black substance. On 12/02/24 at 10:32am, R2 who was alert to person, place, and time, stated that the shower rooms could be cleaner at times. On 12/02/24 at 10:53am, R13 who was alert to person, place, and time, stated the facility was pretty dingy before they started painting around here and the bathrooms are often dirty and damp. On 12/02/24 at 11:02am, R11 who was alert to person and place, stated the bathrooms could use a good cleaning.

It appeared that some of it was under a layer of clear sealant. On 12/04/24 at 10:00am, The buildup in the corner of shower room B was clean, there was no longer any clear sealant observed on the wall. On 12/04/24 at 12:00pm, V8 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA) stated everyone on this end of the South hallway uses shower room B.

On 12/04/24 at 1:40pm, V1 (Administrator) was asked about the spot in the corner of shower room B, she stated she did not know anything about it but assumed that housekeeping would have cleaned it.
