F 0685 Assist a resident in gaining access to vision and hearing services. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, record review and interview the facility failed to ensure proper treatment to aide one resident (Resident #24) in her ability to hear adequately. The affected one (Resident #24) of one resident reviewed for ancillary services. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #24 revealed an admission date of 05/26/20 with diagnoses of Alzheimer's Disease, dementia, emphysema, hyperlipidemia and pulmonary fibrosis. Observation and interview on 04/11/22 at 11:44 A.M. with Resident #24 revealed she did not have any assistive devices to aid in hearing. She repeatedly asked this surveyor to repeat herself so she could hear what was being asked. Resident #24 confirmed she could not hear well and thought she would benefit from having her hearing checked. Interview on 04/13/22 at 9:12 A.M. revealed Resident #24 needed questions and sentences repeated at least twice at a higher volume during conversation with this surveyor. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had moderate cognitive impairment with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 12 out of 15. Resident #24 had adequate hearing and did not use an assistive device to aid in hearing. Review of the progress note from an audiologist appointment on 02/01/22 revealed the reason for the visit was an ear care exam and hearing loss. The note indicated Pt was noted to have a complete build up of cerumen (ear wax). Resident #24 refused any treatment at time of the appointment. The physician recommended Debrox 5 drops twice a day for three days with a gentle warm water rinse on the fourth day, or a referral from the Primary Care Physician (PCP) for other treatment options. Review of the Physician's orders from 02/01/22 through 04/13/22 did not reveal any evidence of ear drops being ordered or the PCP making any further recommendations for treatment for Resident #24's ear care. Interview on 04/13/22 at 10:36 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed no action was taken to address recommendations for Resident #24 after her appointment with the audiologist on 02/01/22.

F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Based on the unprecedented global pandemic that resulted in the Presidential declaration of a State of National Emergency dated 03/13/20, review of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) memoranda, review of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, review of the facility's COVID-19 line list, review of facility infection control policies, interviews with staff, observations, interview with the local health department (LHD) and medical record review, the facility failed to implement appropriate infection control practices including appropriate use of personal protective equipment (PPE), social distancing with residents who tested positive for COVID-19 and failed to ensure residents who were exposed to COVID-19 were encouraged to wear appropriate PPE while visiting with other residents. Residents Affected - Many This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy on 04/11/22 when State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #213 was observed smoking and monitoring smoking outside the exit door of the COVID-19 Unit with Resident #52 who tested positive for COVID-19 on 04/07/22. Neither STNA #213 nor Resident #52 were social distancing, wearing a mask, eye protection, gown, or gloves. Interview with STNA #213 and review of the facility staffing schedule revealed STNA #213 was scheduled to work with residents throughout the facility who did not have COVID-19 during the week of 04/11/22 through 04/17/22. In addition, Resident #25 tested positive for COVID-19 on 04/11/22 exposing his roommate, Resident #46. After exposure to COVID-19, Resident #46 visited his spouse, who resided in a different room, and the spouse's roommate, multiple times a day for extended periods of time without wearing appropriate PPE or social distancing. Review of the facility timeline from 04/05/22 through 04/17/22 revealed between 04/05/22 and 04/17/22, 21 Residents #54, #48, #44, #53, #3, #50, #52, #37, #57, #26, #25, #61, #2, #62, #49, #14, #46, #36, #28, #6, and #60 tested positive for COVID-19. Between 04/07/22 and 04/16/22, seven staff members, STNA #233, #259, Registered Nurse (RN) #231, #235, Housekeeper #249, #222, and Therapy #269 tested positive for COVID-19. This deficient practice of infection control placed all residents at risk for serious life-threatening harm, complications and/or death. The facility census was 70. On 04/12/22 at 3:15 P.M. the Administrator, Director of Nursing (DON), and Corporate Nurse #267 were notified that Immediate Jeopardy began on 04/11/22 when the facility did not implement appropriate infection control practice when residents exposed to COVID-19 did not wear appropriate PPE when with non-exposed residents and did not implement appropriate infection control measures while monitoring smoking of a resident that was positive for COVID-19. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 04/13/22 when the facility implemented the following corrective actions: • On 04/12/22 at 5:00 P.M. STNA #213, who was monitoring smoking with a COVID-19 positive resident, Resident #52, without wearing PPE or social distancing outside the COVID unit, was removed from the schedule, and quarantined for 14 days. • On 04/12/22 at 5:00 P.M., the Administrator and DON began education of all staff that when within six feet of a resident who is on transmission-based precautions for COVID-19, the staff member must wear PPE that includes an N95 mask, gown, gloves and eye protection. This education was completed on 04/13/22 by the Administrator and/or DON.

F 0880 • Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety On 04/12/22 at 6:10 P.M., Resident #46 was assessed for symptoms of COVID-19 and tested for COVID-19 by the DON. Resident #46 did not have signs/symptoms of COVID-19 and the COVID-19 test was negative. Resident #46 will continue to be monitored daily by the licensed nurse for an indefinite period. Residents Affected - Many • On 04/12/22 at 7:00 P.M., Corporate Nurse #267 reviewed the facility's Novel Coronavirus Prevention and Response policy for identification, contact tracing, monitoring and quarantine of individuals exposed to COVID-19. 1) The facility will follow the CDC guidelines which includes placing residents who had close contact with someone with COVID-19 infection in quarantine after exposure, even if viral testing is negative, and staff caring for them will use full PPE that includes gowns, gloves, eye protection and N95 respirators. 2) These residents will be removed from Transmission-Based Precautions after day 10 following the exposure (day 0) if they do not develop symptoms. The facility may also remove these residents from Transmission-Based Precautions after day seven following the exposure (day 0) if a viral test is negative for COVID-19 and they do not develop symptoms. The specimen will be collected and tested within 48 hours before the time of planned discontinuation of Transmission-Based Precautions. 3) For residents who are up to date with all recommended COVID-19 vaccine doses and residents who have recovered from COVID-19 infection in the prior 90 days who have had close contact with someone with COVID-19 infection, staff are required to wear a well fitted mask when caring for them and are required to encourage that the resident is wearing a well fitted mask when engaging with other residents for 10 days but will not be quarantined, restricted to their room, or cared for by staff using the full PPE recommended for the care of a resident with COVID-19 infection unless they develop symptoms of COVID-19, are diagnosed with COVID-19 infection, or the facility is directed to do so by the Alliance City health department. If these residents are moderately to severely immunocompromised, the facility will place the resident in Quarantine as stated above. • On 04/13/22 at 9:00 A.M. Corporate Nurse #267 began a house-wide audit of all residents to ensure that high risk residents who had close contact to someone with COVID were placed in quarantine. Six residents (#61, #7, #2, #12, #4, #46) were considered to have close contact as defined by the CDC as less than 6 feet away for a combined total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period of an infected individual within 48 hours of the positive test or start of symptoms. All six residents were up to date with COVID vaccinations and not moderately to severely immunocompromised. One (#61) of the six began symptoms on 4/11/22, was isolated, tested and moved to the COVID unit due to positive test results. A second, Resident #2, was up to date, asymptomatic and tested on positive on 04/12/22 and was immediately moved to the COVID unit. The remaining four residents, (#7, #12, #4, and #46) are asymptomatic and not immunocompromised and not quarantined per CDC guidance (encourage mask use, monitor signs and symptoms). Corporate Nurse #267 completed the audit at 12:00 P.M. on 04/13/22. • (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 366214 If continuation sheet Page 8 of 19 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 366214 B.

F 0880 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety On 04/13/22 at 9:30 A.M., Corporate Nurse #267 provided education to the Administrator and DON on smoking procedures, managing residents with close contact (including symptomatic or immunocompromised), Novel Coronavirus Prevention and Response, donning and doffing personal protective equipment (PPE), initiating transmission-based precautions, and Coronavirus surveillance. • Residents Affected - Many On 04/13/22 at 10:00 A.M., the Administrator and Human Resource Director (HR) #245 began all staff education on smoking procedures, managing residents with close contact (including symptomatic or immunocompromised), Novel Coronavirus Prevention and Response, donning and doffing of PPE, initiating transmission-based precautions, and Coronavirus surveillance. Training was completed on 04/13/22 for all staff. • On 04/13/22 at 6:00 P.M., Corporate Nurse #267 reviewed the facility's Novel Coronavirus Prevention and Response policy for outbreak testing and managing residents who have close contact with someone with COVID-19 infection and revised to refer to current CMS guidelines. The facility will follow CMS guidelines for testing (e.g., facility testing requirements), including but not limited to: 1) Testing Residents with Symptoms or Signs of COVID-19 Staff with symptoms or signs of COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status, must be tested immediately and are expected to be restricted from the facility pending the results of COVID-19 testing. In accordance with CDC guidance, appropriate actions are taken based on the results. Residents who have signs or symptoms of COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status, must be tested immediately. While test results are pending, residents with signs and symptoms should be place in transmission-based precautions in accordance with CDC guidance and appropriate actions taken based on the results. 2) Testing of Staff and Residents During an Outbreak Investigation. A new COVID-19 infection in any staff or any nursing home-onset COVID-19 infection in a resident triggers an outbreak investigation. In an outbreak investigation, rapid identification and isolation of new cases is critical in stopping further viral transmission. A resident who is admitted to the facility with COVID-19 does not constitute a facility outbreak If the facility has the ability to identify close contacts of the individual with COVID-19, they could choose to conduct focused testing based on known close contacts. If the facility does not have the expertise, resources, or ability to identify all close contacts, they should instead investigate the outbreak at a facility-wide or group-level (e.g., unit, floor, or other specific area(s) of the facility). Broader approaches might also be required if the facility is directed to do so by the jurisdiction's public health authority, or in situations where all potential contacts are unable to be identified, are too numerous to manage, or when contact tracing fails to halt transmission. • On 04/13/22 at 7:00 P.M., Corporate Nurse #267 educated the Administrator and DON on CMS guidance (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 366214 If continuation sheet Page 9 of 19 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 366214 B.
