Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of clinical records and select facility policy, and resident and staff interviews, it was determined that
the facility failed to thoroughly assess and evaluate bowel and bladder function, to identify factors for
decline, and implement individualized interventions, including timely toileting assistance, to improve bladder
and bowel function to the extent possible for one out of 24 sampled residents (Residents 38).
Findings include:
Review of the facility Bowel and Bladder Evaluation Policy last reviewed May 9, 2024, indicated that
residents are evaluated for continence on admission/readmission, quarterly, and with significant change in
status. Residents without a documented reversible cause for bowel and bladder incontinence are to have a
Bowel and Bladder evaluation completed and Bowel and Bladder Elimination Pattern evaluation completed.
Based on data collected from the patterning evaluation residents to be provided an individualized
continence management program.
Review of Resident 38's clinical record revealed admission to the facility on January 10, 2024, with
diagnoses that included diabetes and depression.
A review of the resident's admission Minimum Data Set Assessments (MDS - a federally mandated
standardized assessment completed at specific intervals to define resident care needs) dated January 16,
2024, Section H Bladder and Bowel indicated the resident was frequently incontinent of bladder and bowel.
Review of the resident's quarterly MDS dated , March 15, 2024, Section H Bladder and Bowel indicated the
resident was frequently incontinent of bladder and occasionally incontinent of bowel. The assessments
indicated the resident was not on a bladder or bowel training program.
Resident 38's Quarterly MDSs assessment dated [DATE], Section H Bladder and Bowel, noted that the
resident was frequently incontinent of bladder and now frequently incontinent of bowel (a decline of bowel
function).
Further review of Resident 38's clinical record revealed no documented evidence that a Bowel and Bladder
evaluation or Bowel and Bladder Elimination Pattern evaluation was completed upon admission or quarterly
as per facility policy for Resident 38 and decline in bowel continence noted on the Quarterly MDS
assessment dated [DATE].
During interview with Resident 38 on July 16, 2024, at 12:20 PM the resident stated that nursing staff often
take a long time to answer her call bell and provide assistance with toileting when

needed. The resident explained that the other day she waited longer than 15 minutes for nursing staff to
answer the call bell when she had to have a bowel movement, and as a result of the long wait for staff
assistance with toileting, she had an accident (bowel incontinence).
During an interview with the nursing home administrator on July 19, 2024, at 11:30 AM the NHA confirmed
that there was documented evidence that the facility had acted upon the resident's increased bowel
incontinence and completed incontinence evaluations and implemented any scheduled toileting programs
in response to the resident's decline in bowel function and frequent incontinence of urine.

charge on each shift.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, a review of clinical records, a review of nurse staffing, and grievances filed with the facility, and
interviews with staff and residents, it was determined that the facility failed to provide sufficient nursing staff
to provide timely and quality care to each resident including eight residents out of 24 sampled (Residents
19, 20, 21, 48, 151, 38, 30 and 85), including concerns expressed in grievances filed with the facility
(Resident 85).
Findings included:
A grievance lodged with the facility dated April 3, 2024, indicated that Resident 48 reported that she was
continuously dissatisfied with nursing staff's untimely call bell response time. The facility noted that the
grievance is not resolved to the resident's liking, despite facility improvements in staff's call bell response.
A grievance filed with the facility dated April 29, 2024, indicated that Resident 85 expressed concerns that
staff initially responded to his call bell but left and never came back to get him out of bed as requested. The
grievance indicated that he remained in bed all day as a result. The facility noted that the grievance was
resolved.
A grievance lodged with the facility dated June 1, 2024, indicated that a resident's family
member/representative voiced concerns on behalf of the resident, reported that the resident waited over
four hours for nursing staff to answer the resident's call bell and that nursing staff does not provide his
morning care at the resident's preferred time. The grievance identified the family member but did not include
the resident's name. The facility noted that the grievance was resolved.

include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD is a condition caused by damage to the airways or
other parts of the lung that blocks airflow and makes it hard to breathe) and heart failure (a condition that
develops when the heart doesn't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs). A review of a quarterly
Minimum Data Set assessment (MDS - a federally mandated standardized assessment process conducted
periodically to plan resident care) dated April 24, 2024 revealed that Resident 21 is cognitively intact with a
BIMS score of 15 (Brief Interview for Mental Status- a tool within the Cognitive Section of the MDS that is
used to assess the resident's attention, orientation, and ability to register and recall new information; a
score of 13-15 indicates cognition is intact).
A review of the clinical record revealed that Resident 48 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with
diagnoses to include major depressive disorder (a mental health disorder characterized by a persistently
low or depressed mood, decreased interest in pleasurable activities, feelings of worthlessness, lack of

During a group interview conducted on July 17, 2024, at 10:00 AM, Resident 48 stated that she waits 30 to
40 minutes for nursing staff to provide her care. She explained that the facility is particularly short staffed on
the evening shift. Resident 48 stated that if she has to go to the bathroom after 15 minutes, she will start
yelling from her room for staff assistance with a bedpan. Resident 48 stated that if she doesn't yell, then
nursing staff don't respond. Resident 48 further explained that during meal times, nursing staff don't
respond even when she is yelling for their assistance because they are helping residents in the dining
room. She stated that the wait times for nursing staff to provide requested and needed care causes her to
feel frustrated and angry.
During an interview on July 17, 2024, at 10:45 AM, Resident 21 stated that she experiences long wait times
for nursing staff to provide her care, stating that she often waits over 20 minutes for nursing staff to provide
her care. Resident 21 stated that she feels frustrated, and after 25 minutes, she starts screaming for help
from nursing staff. She explained that there are not a lot of nursing staff, and the wait times are worse when
there is less nursing staff working. Resident 21 stated that when there is only one nurse aide assigned to
her hallway, it makes her feel rushed when she needs assistance to use the bathroom. She explained that
she is upset, because she doesn't want to be dependent on nursing staff for assistance, but she needs their
help with activities of daily living.
During an interview on July 17, 2024, at 11:15 AM, Resident 20 stated that she rings her call bell and waits
between 20 and 40 minutes for nursing staff to respond. She explained that she is independent and can do
most things herself, but she is upset when it takes so long for nursing staff to respond when she does need
their help. Resident 20 stated that she believes that the issue is because there are not enough nursing staff
working at the facility.
During an interview on July 18, 2024, at 9:45 AM Resident 19 stated that the facility is often short on nurse
staffing and sometimes only assigns one nurse aide to his hallway. He explained that the facility is short on
nursing staff at least twice a week, and the weekends are the worst. Resident 19 stated the facility has
increased the number of new residents admitted over the past few weeks, but has not increased the
amount of nursing staffing. He explained that he waits 20 minutes or longer for nursing care after ringing his
call bell for staff assistance.
Interview with Resident 38 on July 16, 2024, at 12:20 PM the resident stated that nursing staff often take a
long time to answer her call bell and the other day she waited longer than 15 minutes for the call bell to be
answered and had an accident (bowel incontinence) because nursing staff did not respond timely to the
resident's request for toileting assistance.
Observation on July 18, 2024, at 1:00 PM revealed that Resident 30's bed was not yet made. Interview with

Review of the facility's deployment sheet for the day shift of July 19, 2024, revealed that the facility's census
was 104 residents. There were 4 nurse aides and 2 LPNs working on the Second-floor Nursing Unit, and 4
nurse aides and 2 LPNs working on the Third-floor nursing unit. There was also a restorative nurse aide
who covered both nursing units and one RN Charge nurse floating between the nursing units.
Interview with Resident 151, a cognitively intact resident, on July 19, 2024, at 9:30 AM revealed that she
was unhappy with the nursing care at the facility. Resident 151 stated that due to long call bell waits (longer
than 15 minutes) she had soiled herself on three different occasions. Resident 151 stated that it seems the
facility does not have enough nursing staff. Resident 151 stated that the facility was aware of her concerns
with her call bells not being answered timely and stated that they were to start offering toileting after meals.
Resident 151 stated that she finished breakfast around 8:00 AM and, as of 9:30 AM nursing staff still had
not offered her toileting. Resident 151 stated that she did have to go to the bathroom presently and the
surveyor offered to seek out nursing staff assistance for the resident. Upon entering the hall and nurses
station there were no staff available other than Employee 7 who stated that other nursing staff were busy
helping other residents. Employee 7 (RN Supervisor) then assisted Resident 151 to the bathroom.
Interview with the nursing home administrator (NHA) on July 19, 2024, at 10:30 AM confirmed that nursing
staff are to make resident beds timely. The NHA confirmed that nursing staff are to answer call bells timely
answered and offer Resident 151 after meals. The NHA confirmed that nursing staff call-offs were a
problem, that negatively affected sufficient nurse staffing levels.
A review of nurse staffing hours revealed the facility averaged 3.22 direct care hours for each resident with
an average census of 98 residents for the week of June 24, 2024, through June 30, 2024. However, with an
increase in their census, from June 11, 2024, through June 17, 2024, the facility averaged 3.06 direct care
hours for each resident, with an average census of 104 residents.
A review of the facility's nurse staffing from June 11, 2024, through July 17, 2024, revealed the facility failed
to meet the required minimum state ratio for nurse aides on 18 of the 63 shifts reviewed. The facility failed
to meet the required minimum state ratio for licensed practical nurses on 9 of the 63 shifts reviewed. The
facility failed to meet the state minimum required nursing staff direct care hours per day for each resident
on 10 out of 21 days reviewed.
During an interview on July 19, 2024, at approximately 11:00 AM, the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)
confirmed that the facility failed to meet the state minimum requirements for nurse aides, licensed practical
nurses, and nurse staff direct care hours for residents per day. The NHA was unable to provide evidence
that additional direct care staff were provided to ensure residents needs were met with the increase in the
resident census from the week of June 11, 2024 (98 residents) to the week of July 11, 2024 (104
residents). The NHA confirmed that it is the facility's responsibility to provide sufficient nursing staff to
provide timely and quality care to each resident.
