This deficient practice resulted in Resident 16
and Resident 17 being subjected to unsanitary
conditions, and created a hardship getting to
the restroom, which had the potential to
negatively affect their health and well-being.
Findings:
During a facility tour of the dining room on May
24, 2017 at 10:19 AM, the surveyor was
approached by a family member of Resident
16, who stated that Resident 16's toilet was
clogged and would not flush after Resident 16
used the toilet. The Restroom toilet was out of
order for over a week before maintenance
unclogged the toilet.
During an interview with Resident 16 on May
24, 2017 at 10:25 AM, she stated, "It [the toilet]
was broken, they didn't [did not] fix it [the
toilet]." Resident 16 stated "yes" it was hard on
me to use the conference room's restroom, that
was located across the hall.
During an interview with Resident 17 on May
24, 2017 at 10:36 AM, she stated the bathroom
was broken for over a week. Resident 17
stated she used the bathroom across the hall.
Resident 17 also stated her roommate
[Resident 16] reported the clogged toilet to the
facility staff.
During an interview with the Director of
Maintenance (DM) on May 24, 2017 at 10:38
AM, he confirmed the toilet had been clogged
and unable to flush, but thought he fixed it the
same day. The DM stated he had to borrow a
snake to unclog the toilet. When asked if there
was any documentation to support his
statement that the toilet was unclogged on the

working to get completed.
During a review of the maintenance log book
(book where repairs and updates are kept), it
indicated no documentation of the "broken"
toilet, and no documentation that the toilet was
corrected on the same day.
During an interview with the Regional
Registered Nurse (RN) on May 24, 2017 at
11:45 AM, she stated she did remember the
toilet being out of order for a least a few days,
and stated, "I made the out of order sign for the
restroom."

titled, "Maintenance Service," (undated),
indicated, "1. The Maintenance Department is
responsible for...f. Establishing priorities in

fever and often unconsciousness, when

when the air conditioning unit failed.
An immediate jeopardy (IJ) was called on May
23, 2017 at 8:25 PM, in the presence of the
facility's Regional Nurse (RN) and the Director
of Staff Development (DSD), due to excessive
heat, (Facility temperatures ranged from 87 to
92 degrees F), and the facility's inoperable air
conditioning unit.
Findings:
During the initial tour on May 23, 2017 between
6:00 PM and 6:14 PM, the nurses' station,
where residents (Resident 14, 22 and 23)
congregated, felt hot and uncomfortable. The
temperature was taken with the surveyor's
laser thermometer gun and determined to be
87 degrees Fahrenheit (F) and verified with the
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN 1 and 2).
During the initial tour, observation revealed no
facility staff had been observed to be passing
hydration to clients affected by the elevated
temperatures in the building. The facility's
maintenance personnel were not on site, and
no work was being completed on the air
conditioning unit.
During an observation while conducting the
initial tour on May 23, 2017 at 6:06 PM, two
residents (Resident 1 and 2) were observed in
their room (Room 202). They were visibly
sweating, and complained of the excessive

room, unavailable to any residents who were
unable to get out of bed independently, or to
self-propel in their wheelchair.
During additional observations, on May 23,
2017, between 6:00 PM and 7:04 PM, the
following area's temperatures were taken with
the surveyor's laser thermometer gun, and
verified with the DSD.

(g) Resident Call System
The facility must be adequately equipped to
allow residents to call for staff assistance
through a communication system which relays
the call directly to a staff member or to a
centralized staff work area (2) Toilet and bathing facilities.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview, and record review, the
facility failed to ensure one of 57 residents
(Resident 17) had a working call light (button to
summon assistance from facility staff) for 19
days, forcing Resident 17 to have to wait until
facility staff walked by her room so she could
call out for assistance.
This failure had the potential for Resident 17
being unable to summon assistance when
needed.
