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.
