Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must
establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure information was available
for residents and their representatives on how to file a grievance and who the facility designated as a
Grievance Official. This had the potential to affect 21 of the 21 residents in the facility. Facility census was
21.
Findings include:
Observation of the facility during the survey on the days of 02/21/23, 02/22/23, and 02/23/23 revealed there
were no postings of how to file a grievance available for the residents, in the facility.
On 02/22/23 at 10:39 A.M. interview with Residents #7, #13, #14, and #15 at the Resident Council
interview revealed the residents did not know how to file a grievance. All residents present stated they
would just tell someone they had a concern and it usually was addressed. Most of the time they are happy
with the resolution but not always. Resident #14 stated he had not received his glasses that were ordered
last year. The resident stated he had asked multiple staff but no one informed him of the situation with his
glasses.
On 02/23/23 at 11:35 A.M. interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #104 revealed the grievance
forms are not at the nurse's station as stated in the admission packet and the Resident Handbook.
LPN#104 stated if a resident asked to file a complaint or grievance, she would refer the resident to the
Director of Nursing (DON) or the Administrator.
On 02/23/23 at 11:37 A.M. interview with the DON revealed if the residents have a concern someone from
administration or the activities director, who coordinates Resident Council, works with the resident to
address the concern or fill out the grievance form.
On 02/23/23 at 1:05 P.M. phone interview Activities Director #116 revealed she schedules the Resident
Council meetings, reminds the residents of the meeting day and time, and review the minutes for the
previous month (including outcomes of the concerns). She does not fill out the grievance forms but refers
the residents to the Administrator or DON if concerns are not resolved.
On 02/23/23 at 2:25 P.M. interview with Administrator #117 revealed the grievance process instructions
were not posted in the facility. The forms are at the nurse's station and in the administration office. Most of
the residents would need help filling out the form so the grievance process is addressed as concerns are
raised by the residents.
Review of the current resident handbook revealed a resident with a concern may complete a concern form
which should be available at the Nursing Stations, Business office or Administrative office. There is also a
Grievance Committee comprised of the Facility's staff, Residents, sponsors, or outside representatives in a
ratio of not more than one staff member to every two Residents, sponsors, or outside representatives.
Procedures are reviewed at least annually by the Facility with the advice of Residents, their sponsors, or
both.
Record review of resident council meeting minutes from 01/22 to 02/23 revealed no information provided to
residents on how to file a grievance, no information that confidentiality will be maintained if a grievance is
filed, and no information that the procedures have been reviewed with Resident

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3. Review of
Resident #10's medical record revealed diagnoses including convulsions and hypertension.
Residents Affected - Some
Review of the January 2023 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed Resident #10 received
Furosemide (diuretic) 20 milligrams (mg) every morning for congestive heart failure between 01/06/23 and
01/12/23.
A quarterly MDS dated [DATE] did not reflect the use of a diuretic over the seven day assessment period.

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 and interview, the facility failed to ensure there was follow up to an optometrist visit
recommending eye glasses for one (#14) of 14 residents interviewed regarding vision. The census was 21.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
During an interview of Resident #14 on 02/21/23 at 12:40 P.M. he stated he had eye glasses ordered and
he had not received them. Other residents who saw the eye doctor on the same day had received their eye
glasses.
Review of Resident #14's medical record revealed diagnoses including disorientation and type 2 diabetes
mellitus. An annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #14 had
adequate vision with corrective lenses. The assessment indicated Resident #14 was moderately cognitively
impaired.
Documentation from the facility's eye care provider revealed Resident #14 had an eye exam 09/22/22 which
indicated he had a cataract of the right eye, pseudophakia (implant of an intraocular lens to replace a
natural lens) of the left eye, hyperopia (nearby objects look blurred) and presbyopia (progressive loss of
near focusing ability) of both eyes with no current prescription. The form indicated glasses were required
and to encourage full time use for distance and reading. Glasses were recommended and were to be
delivered upon approval.
A care plan initiated 01/07/23 indicated Resident #14 was at risk for impaired vision related to use of
magnifier/magnifier glass. Goals were for Resident #14 to be free of acute eye problems and maintain
optimal quality of life within visual limits. Interventions included arranging consultation of an eye care
practitioner as needed.
On 02/22/23 at 11:13 A.M., during interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated Resident #14 never
received eye glasses due to issues with his insurance.
On 02/22/23 at 12:15 P.M., during interview, the DON stated she spoke to the eye doctor provider and was
told insurance would send a denial letter. After the facility got the denial letter they would appeal. Resident
#14 could choose to pay out of pocket for the eye glasses.
On 02/22/23 at 1:08 P.M., during interview, the Vision Provider Representative #200 stated the information
regarding the cost of the eye glasses was submitted to Resident #14's primary insurance provider and was
informed they did not cover the cost of glasses. A letter was sent to the resident at the facility on 09/23/22.
No other person was listed as the responsible party.
On 02/22/23 at 1:22 P.M., during interview, Business Office Manager (BOM) #112 verified the census view
of the medical record revealed Resident #14 had Medicaid coverage as of 09/16/22.
On 02/22/23 at 1:54 P.M., during interview, the Ohio Medicaid Representative #205 indicated he could see
Resident #14 had Medicaid which had back dated benefits as of 09/01/22. The case was not updated in the
system until 11/25/22 so he would not have been in the system as covered until then. The DON indicated
she would have the vision provider submit the bill for eye glasses to Medicaid.

including dementia, atherosclerotic heart disease, history of cerebral vascular infarction, and history of
urinary tract infection.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 01/31/23, indicated Resident #18's Brief
Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was 04, which indicated severely impaired cognition. The resident
did not have any hallucinations, delusions, physical or verbal behaviors, or rejection of care.
Review of the Care Plan, dated 01/31/23, revealed Resident #18 received antipsychotic medication related
to dementia.
Review of a physician order, dated 02/02/23, revealed the order for Lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5 milligrams (mg)
by mouth or intramuscularly (IM), every four hours, as needed for anxiety, restlessness, or agitation. The
order did not indicate a duration of time or stop date.
Review of a physician order, dated 02/07/23, revealed the order for Quetiapine Fumarate (Seroquel) 25
milligrams (mg) by mouth at bedtime for restlessness/anxiety.
Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR), dated February 2023, indicated the resident
received Quetiapine Fumarate 25 milligrams (mg) every night.
During interview on 02/22/23 at 3:41 P.M., the Director of Nursing (DON) verified the resident is receiving
Seroquel, which is an antipsychotic, without an appropriate diagnosis. The DON confirmed the physician
order, dated 02/07/23, stated the indication for use was due to restlessness/anxiety. The DON further
confirmed there was no stop date indicated on the physician order, dated 02/02/23 for Lorazepam 0.5 mg,
every four hours, prn.
Review of the facility's policy, Antipsychotic Medication Use, dated December 2016, revealed the residents
will only receive antipsychotic medications when necessary to treat specific conditions for which they are
indicated and effective. The need to continue prn orders for psychotropic medications beyond 14 days
requires that the practitioner document the rationale for the extended order. The duration of the prn order
will be indicated in the order.

or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record review, and interview, the facility failed to make timely referrals for dental services for
two (#11 and #14) of 16 residents whose dental status was observed. The facility census was 21.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Observations of Resident #11 on 02/21/23 at 10:58 A.M. revealed he had no natural teeth and no
dentures in.
On 02/21/23 at 3:47 P.M., during interview, Resident #11's son indicated Resident #11 had new dentures
that had been missing. The facility had reported they were looking for them.
Review of Resident #11's medical record reviewed diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, type 2
diabetes mellitus, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and cerebrovascular disease.
Between 06/07/21 and 11/07/22, Resident #11 had an order for a regular diet with regular texture.
A nursing note dated 11/07/22 at 9:14 A.M. indicated the power of attorney and physician were updated
that Resident #11's diet was changed to mechanical soft due to decreased appetite and difficulty chewing.
An admission nursing assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #11 had full upper and full lower
dentures that fit but did not wear them.
There was no documentation indicating Resident #11's dentures were missing.
Review of a Resident/Family/Staff concern form dated 07/21/22 indicated Resident #11's dentures were
missing. Staff were unable to find the dentures in his room, the laundry, day room, dining room or in the
chairs. Resident #11 was unable to state what he did with them. Resident #11 was known to take them out
and leave them in random places. Resident #11 was added to a list to be seen at the next dental visit. It
was unknown if the cost of the dentures would be covered.
On 02/22/23 at 4:20 P.M., during interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated the facility assessed a
resident with lost dentures to see if it affected their intake and if it did they reached out for emergency
dental services. If not, the residents were seen with the next visit. The DON stated she would look for
documentation regarding any referral for dental services after the dentures were lost. The DON stated the
facility was still waiting on the next dental visit to be scheduled.
On 02/22/23 at 4:42 P.M., during interview, the Administrator provided a list that was provided to the dental
service on 12/20/22 indicating Resident #11's name was on the list to be seen.
On 02/23/23 at 7:00 A.M., during interview, the DON verified there was no documentation revealing there
was a referral for dental services within three days of the dentures being lost nor was there documentation
of extenuating circumstances that led to the delay of dental services being provided.
On 02/23/23 at 10:31 A.M., interview of Dental Services Representative #210 revealed dental services

dentures. The dental service automatically saw residents who had Medicaid services. Notices would be
sent out for any private pay residents. The dental service would generally visit when residents were due to
be seen. However there were only a few residents who were eligible to be seen at present so they would
wait until most residents were due to be seen unless there was an emergency. Dental Services
Representative #210 stated if a facility notified them of missing dentures they would seek approval for
payment by Medicaid first or give the residents the option to pay privately. In that case, they would
coordinate to visit the specific resident. Dental Services Representative #210 stated the facility called the
dental service provider on 02/22/23 to schedule a visit. After reviewing the records for Resident #11, Dental
Services Representative #210 stated the facility had not notified them that his dentures were missing.
Dental Services Representative #210 stated Resident #11 had received dentures in 2022. Medicaid would
only pay for dentures every eight years so new dentures would have to be paid for privately.
2. During an interview of Resident #14 on 02/21/23 at 12:40 P.M., Resident #14 was observed to have
natural lower teeth but no upper teeth were observed.
Review of Resident #14's medical record revealed diagnoses including disorientation, type 2 DM, and adult
failure to thrive. An admission assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #14 had his own teeth but also
indicated dentures fit. The assessment was silent as to the type of dentures Resident #14 had. A dietary
note dated 12/16/22 at 10:29 A.M. indicated Resident #14 had lost dentures.
Review of a Resident/Family/Staff concern form dated 12/09/22 indicated Resident #14's dentures were
missing. Resident #14 stated he took them out in bed and did not know what happened to them. Staff
searched the bedroom, laundry, and visible trash and were unable to find the dentures. Resident #14's
name was placed on a list to be seen by the dentist. The facility was waiting on a date.
On 02/22/23 at 11:11 A.M., during interview, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #104 stated Resident #14 had
upper dentures when he was admitted but they were unable to be located about 1-1.5 months prior to the
survey. Staff had removed everything from the room in attempts to locate the dentures without success.
Resident #14 had no difficulty eating. Resident #14 would be seen when the dentist visited next.
On 02/22/23 at 4:20 P.M., during interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated the facility assessed a
resident with lost dentures to see if it affected their intake and if it did they reached out for emergency
dental services. If not, the residents were seen with the next visit. The DON stated she would look for
