This survey cited 1 deficiency. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0919 Make sure that a working call system is available in each resident's bathroom and bathing area. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on review of facility policy, observations, and resident and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that the call bell system was adequately working for one of four nursing units (West Hall Nursing Unit). Residents Affected - Some Findings include: Review of the facility policy entitled, Call Light Response with a revision date of 11/1/24 , revealed that a call bell or alternative device will be placed within the reach of each resident while in their room, toilet or bathing area. The resident will be instructed in the use of the call bell or alternative device. Staff will respond to the call bell in a timely manner. Staff will be alert to signals that the call bell is on by the following: Flashing light on intercom Beeping of intercom Lighted call signal over the resident's door Sounding of tap bell Observation of the [NAME] Hall Nursing Unit, revealed the call bell system in the corridors did not illuminate when resident call bells in their rooms had been activated. Upon review of maintenance records, it was confirmed that the call bell system on the [NAME] Hall Nursing Unit had not been functioning since 4/22/25, and a temporary call bell system was installed on 4/29/25. A price quote for a new call bell system was obtained but was not completed. Upon observation of the temporary call bell system on the [NAME] Hall Nursing Unit, it was confirmed that residents can call, but no visible overhead light system illuminates. Requests by residents go to a screen located in center hall at the time of call. It was observed that if another resident uses their call bell before staff becomes aware, the previous resident's call is not visible and there is no way to review previous calls and those calls get missed. During interviews with residents at the time and date of the investigation revealed the following: Resident R1 stated that there are long wait times always, on all shifts; you will wait hours to get assistance sometimes; the system does not have a light system over the door and employees don't know you call; wait times have been worse since the original system stopped working.
