**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure Resident #54 received
necessary services to maintain good oral hygiene. This affected one (Resident #54) of three residents
reviewed for activities of daily living (ADL) care. The facility census was 71. Findings include:Review of
Resident #54's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His diagnoses included
major depressive disorder, muscle weakness, unsteadiness on his feet, abnormalities of gait and mobility,
and the need for assistance with personal care. Review of Resident #54's annual Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident did not have any communication issues and was
cognitively intact. He was not known to display any behaviors, nor was he known to reject care. He was
coded as being dependent on staff for oral hygiene. He was indicated to be edentulous with no natural teeth
or tooth fragments noted. Review of Resident #54's care plans revealed he had a care plan in place for an
ADL self care deficit. The care plan was initiated on 11/09/22 and was last revised on 09/16/25. The
interventions included encouraging the resident to participate to the fullest extent possible with each
interaction. The care plan did not list each ADL care out separately and was not specific to the provision of
oral hygiene care.
Residents Affected - Few
Further review of Resident #54's care plans revealed he also had a care plan in place for having oral/
dental health problems related to being edentulous. The goal was for the resident to successfully manage/
receive assistance with mouth care at least daily. The interventions included the need to coordinate
arrangements for dental care. The interventions did not specifically include the provision of oral hygiene
care as one of the interventions to be followed.
On 11/25/25 at 2:45 P.M., an interview with Resident #54 revealed he did not receive any assistance with
his oral hygiene care. He confirmed he did not have any natural teeth and did not use dentures. He stated
he would have liked to be provided with mouthwash and a mouth swab to use when performing oral
hygiene care. He stated he would be able to do that for himself if he had the supplies and the staff provided
set up help. He denied the staff had offered any of those supplies to him. On 11/26/25 at 10:55 A.M., an
interview with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #177 revealed she believed Resident #54 had his own
natural teeth. She reported he did not have them all, but had a few. CNA #177 stated the nursing staff
provided Resident #54 with oral hygiene care, or at least sat by him so he could do his own oral care which
she thought included only mouth wash for residents who had no natural teeth nor dentures. During this
interview CNA #177 proceeded to go to Resident #54's room to check his mouth to see if he had any
natural teeth, as she previously stated. CNA #177 verified Resident #54 was edentulous with no natural
teeth or tooth fragments present and did not have the use of dentures. CNA #177 confirmed after checking
in Resident #54's bathroom that there was no evidence of mouth swabs or mouthwash available for mouth
care. CNA #177 asked Resident #54 if he would like her to get some supplies to do mouth care and
Resident #54 stated that would be nice. CNA #177 went to the central supply room and got the resident
mouth swabs and a

bottle of mouthwash for him to use when receiving oral hygiene care. CNA #177 stated oral hygiene care
should be provided as part of the resident's morning care. CNA #177 stated she did not know why there
were no oral hygiene supplies in Resident #54's room. CNA #177 verified that prior to looking in Resident
#54's mouth during the interview, she did not know he was edentulous.
Review of the facility's policy on Oral Hygiene updated 11/05/24 revealed the facility recognized the
importance of good oral hygiene practice to cleanse mouth, teeth, and dentures. It was to be provided to
prevent infection, irritation, periodontal disease and odors. The policy only included directives for residents
who had their own teeth and/ or dentures. It did not address residents who did not have any of their natural
teeth (edentulous) and/ or the use of dentures.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Intake Number 2665757.
