This survey cited 10 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0563 Honor the resident's right to receive visitors of his or her choosing, at the time of his or her choosing. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on resident interview, staff interview, review of self-reported incidents (SRIs), review of a facility employee handbook, and review of a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) memorandum, the facility failed to reasonable allow residents to have visitors of their choosing. This affected one (#4) of one resident reviewed for visitation. The facility census was 60. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #4's medical record revealed an admission date of 06/09/21. Diagnoses included hypertensive heart disease, morbid obesity, muscle weakness, and localized edema. Review of the most recently completed Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 08/26/21, revealed Resident #4 had intact cognition. Interview on 11/21/21 at 11:59 A.M. with Resident #4 stated a former dietary staff member (Dietary Aide (DA) #877) recently quit working in the facility and wanted to come visit him, but the Administrator told her she was not allowed to enter the facility for visits. A telephone interview was conducted on 11/22/21 at 10:12 A.M. with Human Resources Manager (HRM) #725 who verified DA #877 no longer was employed in the facility. HRM #725 stated there were rumors DA #877 was crossing professional boundaries with Resident #4 but nothing was substantiated. HRM #725 stated DA #877 also displayed poor work habits and was not performing job duties adequately so DA #877 was given a final written warning on either 11/18/21 or 11/19/21. HRM #725 stated after DA #877 was given her final written warning she was a no call, no show on her next scheduled day of work and did not show up to work thereafter. HRM #725 stated DA #877's employment was terminated when she did not show up to work and did not call to say she was not coming into work. HRM #725 stated based on DA #877's no call, no show she would not be allowed on the facility premises since she left on bad terms. Interview on 11/23/21 at 2:20 P.M. with Administrator #515 stated he received a telephone call from DA #877 and she asked about visiting Resident #4. Administrator #515 stated he would not allow DA #877 to visit Resident #4 in the facility as she left her employment with the facility on bad standing. Administrator #515 stated he was not refusing to allow Resident #4 and DA #877 to see each other, however, it could not occur in the facility. Review of self-reported incidents (SRIs) dated between 12/22/20 and 11/12/21 revealed DA #877 was not involved in any investigations for abuse, neglect, or misappropriation.

F 0563 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few revealed former employees of the facility who were terminated must contact the administrator's office prior to entering the facility and may do so only to visit a resident. At that time the former employee must provide the date, time, and length of visit and name of resident. Under some circumstances former employee may not be permitted on the premises depending on the cause of termination. There were no visitation restrictions in the employee handbook for former staff members who quit their employment with no advanced notice to the facility. Review of a CMS memorandum referenced as QSO-20-39-NH and titled Nursing Home Visitation COVID-19, last revised 11/12/21, revealed facilities must allow indoor visitation at all times and for all residents as permitted under the regulations. While previously accepted during the public health emergency (PHE), facilities can no longer limit the frequency and length of visits for residents, the number of visitors, or require advanced scheduling of visits. The effective date of the memorandum was immediately.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely. Based on review of facility's policy, observation and resident and staff interview, the facility failed to maintain a sanitary and homelike environment. This affected three resident rooms and six residents (#2, #9, #38, #46, #51, and #56) who resided in the those rooms. The facility census was 60. Findings include: Observation on 11/21/21 between 9:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M. revealed three resident rooms had sticky fly traps suspended from the ceiling with dead flies noted on each trap. The sticky fly trap in Resident #2 and #38's room was located on the wall above the television on bed #1's side of the room and contained 10 dead flies. The sticky fly trap in Resident #46 and #51's room was located on the ceiling directly over Resident #51's bed and contained in excess of 50 dead flies. The sticky fly trap in Resident #9 and #56's room was located on the ceiling attached to a hook on the privacy curtain track between Resident #9 and #56's beds and contained approximately 30 dead flies. No active fly activity was observed during these observations. Observation on 11/22/21 between 8:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M. and on 11/23/21 between 8:30 A.M. and 9:30 A.M. revealed the stick fly traps with the dead flies remained in Resident #2, #9, #38, #46, #51 and #56's rooms unchanged. There was no evidence of any active fly activity during observations on 11/22/21 or 11/23/21. Interview on 11/23/21 at 8:40 A.M. with Resident #56 stated the facility put the fly trap up in his room approximately in August 2021 when the flies were really bad in his room and indicated he had not seen any fly activity for approximately the last six weeks. Resident #56 stated he did not like looking at the dead flies on the fly trap and wanted it to be changed or taken down. Interview on 11/23/21 at 9:36 A.M. with Resident #51 stated he did not know how long the fly trap was up in his room, but stated it was disgusting to have to lay in bed and look up at all the dead flies stuck to the trap above his bed. Interview on 11/23/21 at 9:42 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #850 stated she was not aware when the sticky fly traps were put up, but verified she did not see any active fly activity in the facility on 11/22/21 or 11/23/21. Interview on 11/23/21 at 9:45 A.M., during the observation of the sticky fly traps in Resident #2, #9, #38, #46, #51 and #56's rooms with LPN #850 verified the dead flies on each trap and LPN #850 confirmed the traps needed to be changed or removed. Review of a facility policy titled, Laundry and Housekeeping/Equipment and Utilities Standards of Practice, dated 2004, revealed the procedures in the policy will clean and disinfect resident rooms and resident bathrooms thereby providing a clean, safe decontaminated environment for the residents. This deficiency substantiates Master Complaint Number OH00127329.

Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #57's medical record revealed an original admission date of 06/11/19 and a most recent readmission date of 11/19/21. Diagnoses included acute and chronic respiratory failure with hypercapnia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, morbid severe obesity, and unspecified immunodeficiency. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/25/21, revealed Resident #57 had intact cognition. Review of a document titled, COVID-19 Vaccine Registration Form, revealed Resident #57 received her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on 06/17/21 and her second dose on 07/15/21. Review of a nursing progress note dated 08/24/21 revealed Resident #57 tested positive for COVID-19. Review of a nursing progress note dated 11/16/21 revealed Resident #57 was sent to the hospital, and review of a nursing progress note dated 11/19/21 revealed Resident #57 returned to the facility. The time between when Resident #57 tested positive for COVID-19 on 08/24/21 and when she returned to the facility on [DATE] was 88 days. Review of a physician order dated 11/19/21 revealed Resident #57 was to be quarantined to her room for three days with a discontinuation date of 11/22/21.

F 0603 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Observation on 11/22/21 at 9:43 A.M., 11:12 A.M., and 3:02 P.M. revealed Resident #57 remained in quarantine in her bedroom. Interview on 11/22/21 at 11:06 A.M. with Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #610 verified all new and readmissions to the facility were placed on a three day quarantine to their room regardless of the resident's COVID-19 vaccination status. ADON #610 stated she thought she heard somewhere that residents had to be placed on quarantine for three days, but she was unsure where she heard the information. In addition, ADON #610 stated by placing residents on quarantine, they were able to monitor residents for 72 hours to make sure the resident did not have symptoms of any other infection. Interview on 11/23/21 at approximately 10:30 A.M. with Director of Nursing (DON) #650 verified Resident #57 was fully vaccinated when she tested positive for COVID-19 on 08/24/21. Review of the facility's undated COVID-19 policy revealed no documentation of the current guidance for new admission and re-admissions for residents that were fully vaccinated and/or had COVID-19 infections in the last 30 days. An undated addendum to the COVID-19 policy revealed new admissions and residents who had a hospital stay must be quarantined to their room for 14 days. Review of the CDC website, at,www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/long-term-care.html, updated 09/10/21, titled, Interim Infection Prevention and Control Recommendations to Prevent SARS-CoV-2 Spread in Nursing Homes, and under the sub-section titled, New Admissions and Residents who Leave the Facility, revealed in general, all unvaccinated residents who are new admissions and readmissions should be placed in a 14-day quarantine, even if they have a negative test upon admission.

F 0604 Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, staff interview, medical record review, and review of a facility policy, the facility failed to evaluate the need for use of a restraint and routinely re-evaluate for continued use of a restraint. This affected one (Resident #26) of one resident reviewed for restraint use. The facility identified one resident with a physical restraint. The facility census was 60. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #26 revealed the resident was admitted on [DATE]. Diagnoses included dementia with behavioral disturbance, schizoaffective disorder, psychotic disorder with hallucinations, Alzheimer's disease, and abnormal posture. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 09/10/21, revealed Resident #26 was severely cognitively impaired. Resident #26 utilized a chair that prevented her from rising and a bed alarm. Review of the plan of care, initiated 06/29/20, revealed Resident #26 used a geri walker related to a history of falling, dementia, and inability to keep her head upright when walking. Resident #26 had a diagnosis of abnormal posture. Interventions included to evaluate the resident quarterly at the care conference. The plan of care was silent for the use of a bed alarm. Review of a physician order, dated 06/07/20, revealed Resident #26 was to utilize a geri walker for safety. Additional review of an order dated 06/11/21 revealed an order for a pad alarm while in bed. Review of the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) Care Conference Summaries, dated 06/11/20, 09/20/20, 12/10/20, 03/11/21, 06/10/21, and 09/09/21 revealed the use of the geri chair was reviewed on 09/20/20 and 03/11/21. The use of the bed alarm had not been reviewed by the IDT during the care conference meeting held after implementation of the device. Observation on 11/21/21 at 12:34 P.M. revealed Resident #26 was in the dining room of the memory care unit. Resident #26 was seated in a wheeled chair, made of plastic, that completely surrounded Resident #26 and limited her movement. Additional observation of Resident #26's room revealed an alarm mat on her bed. Interview on 11/22/21 at 10:16 A.M. with State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) #700 revealed Resident #26 utilized the geri walker because Resident #26 walked hunched over and would fall forward when trying to ambulate. In addition, the bed alarm alerted staff, if they were providing care to another resident, that Resident #26 was getting out of bed. STNA #700 stated both the geri chair and the bed alarm were used to assist with keeping Resident #26 safe because she had a history of falling and harming herself due to her posture. STNA #700 stated staff were trained on both devices and both were monitored to ensure their safe use. Interview on 11/22/21 at 4:05 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed residents should be assessed prior to restraints being implemented and routinely thereafter. The DON stated assessments would have been completed and documented in the resident's electronic medical record (EMR).

F 0604 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few verified Resident #26's EMR was silent for initial assessment and ongoing reevaluation of continued use of the geri walker and bed alarm. Subsequent interview on 11/22/21 at 4:09 P.M. with the DON revealed restraint use was reviewed and re-evaluated during quarterly interdisciplinary team (IDT) care plan meetings and the Social Worker (SW) likely had those documents. Interview on 11/22/21 at 4:33 P.M. with SW #520 verified there was no initial assessment to determine Resident #26's need for a geri walker or bed alarm. In addition, SW #520 verified the IDT care plan meeting notes reflected the use of the geri chair was only reevaluated on 09/20/20 and on 03/11/21 and the use of the bed alarm had not been reviewed at the IDT care plan meeting held since the use was implemented. Review of the facility's undated policy titled Windsor Lane Restraint Policy and Procedure revealed residents were to be evaluated for use of restraints prior to restraint use. Additionally, restraints were to be reevaluated quarterly to see if the need for the restraint continued.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, staff interview, and medical record review, the facility failed to ensure Resident #43's environment was free from accident hazards. This affected one (Resident #43) of four residents reviewed for accident hazards. The facility census was 60. Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #43 revealed an admission date of 01/08/21. Diagnoses included schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, agoraphobia with panic disorder, hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction (stroke), and voice and resonance disorder. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 10/08/21, revealed Resident #43 had a moderate degree of cognitive impairment. The assessment indicated Resident #43 felt depressed seven to 11 days during the review period but did not have thoughts he would be better off dead. Review of the care plan for Resident #43 revealed it identified the presence of behavioral symptoms that may be harmful to himself, including wrapping the call light (cord) around his neck. The plan also identified a behavior by Resident #43 of throwing himself out of bed or intentionally rolling out of bed onto the floor. The plan included a goal for Resident #43 to not harm himself and for staff to anticipate and meet his needs. Further review of the care plan for Resident #43 revealed two elements of the plan included an intervention to ensure the call light was within reach. Review of the progress notes, revealed on 09/23/21, Resident #43 was found to have wrapped the call light cord around his neck. The documentation indicated that in accordance with an order from the nurse practitioner, emergency medical services transported Resident #43 to the emergency room for evaluation following what the document described as suicidal threats. Resident #43 was unharmed and returned to the facility 09/24/21. Observation on 11/22/21 at 11:10 A.M. revealed Resident #43 was lying in bed with his eyes open. The left side of the bed was against the wall and a mattress was on the floor on the right side of the bed. The call light cord, which was several feet long, was observed to be wrapped loosely around the bed's grab bar on the right side of Resident #43's head. Observation confirmed there was sufficient length for Resident #43 to wrap the cord around his neck and still be able to roll or throw himself out of bed (as described in the medical record) with enough length remaining to create an asphyxiation hazard. Interview on 11/22 21 at 11:16 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #545 confirmed Resident #43 had a history of attempts at self-strangulation using the call light cord. LPN #545 further confirmed Resident #43's call light cord was loosely wrapped around the bed's grab bar on the right side. Interview on 11/22/21 at 11:29 A.M. with Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #610 further confirmed Resident #43 had attempted to self-strangulate in the past, using the call light cord. ADON #610 confirmed the observation that Resident #43's call light cord was wrapped loosely around the bed's grab bar to the right of Resident #43's head.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on medical record review, staff interview, and review of the facility's policy, the facility failed to monitor and timely follow up on a resident's significant weight loss. This affected one (Resident #26) of four residents reviewed for nutrition. The facility identified four residents with unplanned significant weight gain or loss. The facility census was 60. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #26 revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses including dementia with behavioral disturbance, schizoaffective disorder, psychotic disorder with hallucinations, Alzheimer's disease, and abnormal posture. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 09/10/21, revealed Resident #26 was severely cognitively impaired. Review of the plan of care, initiated 07/12/18, revealed Resident #26 had a nutritional problem related to dementia, dysphasia, and not wanting to eat. Interventions included to monitor weights. Review of the Mini Nutritional Assessment, dated 09/10/21, revealed Resident #26 was at risk for malnutrition. Review of Resident #26's weights revealed on 10/01/21 Resident #26 weighed 127.3 pounds and on 11/03/21 Resident #26 weighed 115.5 pounds. This was a 9.27% significant weight loss in one month.

Review of a weight obtained on 11/22/21 revealed Resident #26 weighed 120.2 pounds. This was a 5.6% significant weight loss in a month. Interview on 11/22/21 at 2:11 P.M. of Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #610 revealed when a significant weight loss was noted, the resident should be reweighed to verify the weight loss and the family and physician should be notified. ADON #610 verified Resident #26 was not reweighed following the significant weight loss documented on 11/03/21 to confirm the weight loss and Resident #26's EMR did not have documentation the family, physician, or dietician had been notified of the weight loss. ADON #610 stated the facility would typically do weekly weights to monitor weight loss and verified this was not done for Resident #26. ADON #610 stated the weight documented on 11/03/21 was probably not correct. Review of the facility's policy titled Patient/Resident Weights, dated 2004, confirmed if the month-to-month weight showed more than a five percent weight loss, the resident was reweighed within 24 hours. Additionally, if there was a five percent or more weight loss in one month, the family, physician, and the Nutritional Services Director were notified by the nursing department.
