Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to implement a
resident's right to refuse medications for one of one resident reviewed (Resident 69).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 69 revealed that the facility admitted her on October 8, 2024, with a
diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy (a disorder that affects muscle tone, movement, and posture due to abnormal
brain development before birth).
A nursing progress note for Resident 69 dated March 31, 2025, at 1:16 PM indicated that she would not
take her evening medications and clamped her mouth shut when offered them. The note indicated that the
medications were then given to her through her G-Tube (Gastrostomy tube, a small flexible tube surgically
inserted through the abdomen into the stomach to deliver nutrition, fluids, and medications). Further clinical
record review revealed that Resident 69's medications were ordered to be given by mouth and there was no
order to administer them through her G-Tube.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 15, 2025, at 10:15 AM revealed that the nurse
should not have administered Resident 69's medications through the G-Tube after she refused them and
clamped her mouth shut.
The facility failed to honor Resident 69's right to refuse her medications.

Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's
ability to function.
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure a
resident's medication regime was free from medications potentially classified as a chemical restraint for one
of six residents reviewed (Resident 46).
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 46 revealed an order dated February 11, 2025, for Lorazepam (a
medication used to treat anxiety) oral tablet 0.5 mg by mouth every six hours as needed for anxiety and
agitation.
Further clinical record review revealed that Resident 46's order for Lorazepam did not have a 14 day stop
date and there was no physician's progress note that provided a rationale for the medication extending past
14 days.
Review of Resident 46's medication administration record revealed that she utilized the as needed
Lorazepam two times in April 2025, and seven times from May 1-14, 2025.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 15, 2025, at 10:31 AM confirmed the above noted
findings related to Resident 46's Lorazepam.

Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM
and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
Based on clinical record review and resident and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure a resident with limited range of motion received appropriate treatment and services to increase
and/or prevent further decrease in range of motion for three of four residents reviewed for range of motion
concerns (Residents 13, 46, and 47).
Findings include:
Interview with Resident 46 on May 13, 2025, at 11:32 AM revealed that her legs are getting stiff. She
indicated that she no longer goes to therapy and that she is not getting any exercise done to her legs.
Clinical record review of Resident 46's task documentation revealed that staff are to complete passive
range of motion (PROM, movement of a joint through range of motion by an external force) to her bilateral
lower extremities. The program is set up in the task to be completed two times per day.
Further review of Resident 46's task documentation related to her PROM program from April 1, 2025, to
May 13, 2025, revealed that not applicable was documented 18 times, and response not required was
documented 9 times.
Clinical record review for Resident 47 revealed a quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set, an assessment
completed at intervals by the facility determining care needs of the resident) dated May 5, 2025, that
indicated Resident 47 had an impairment on one side of his upper extremities.
Clinical record review of Resident 47's care plan indicated an intervention dated September 4, 2024, for
him to receive an active-assist range of motion program (AAROM, when the joint receives partial
assistance from an outside force to move through range of motion) to his upper extremities.
Further clinical record review revealed no evidence that Resident 47 was receiving an AAROM program to
his upper extremities.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 16, 2025, at 9:30 AM confirmed that Resident 47's
AAROM program was never added to his task list, so staff were unaware to do the program.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 16, 2025, at 9:30 AM confirmed the above noted
finding related to Residents 46 and 47's PROM program.
In an interview and observation of Resident 13 on May 14, 2025, at 2:00 PM she indicated she does not
walk and has not for a long time, but pointed to her bent fingers and stated she thinks her hands and arms
are getting a little bit worse. Resident 13 stated she does not receive any exercises or therapy for her arms
or hands.
Clinical record review for Resident 13 revealed the resident had a resident task added to her care on April
18, 2024, indicating a restorative program for active range of motion was to be completed for the resident
and to see the resident's care plan for the program description.
A review of Resident 13's plan of care revealed initiated on May 9, 2017, indicated the resident is

Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
Based on staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that nursing staff possessed the
appropriate competencies and skill sets related to enteral feedings, catheter care, or intravenous therapy
for two of two employees (Employees 1 and 8).
Findings include:
A review of the facility's current resident population documentation revealed that the facility has one
resident receiving an enteral feeding (alternate form of nutrition administered via a tube), two receiving
intra-venous (by vein) therapy, six with an indwelling catheter, and four residents with in-house acquired
wounds.
A request for nursing staff competencies for Employee 1, registered nurse, and Employee 8, licensed
practical nurse, revealed facility staff could not provide any evidence either Employee 1 or Employee 8 had
any competency assessments completed to appropriately perform the above care for the residents of the
facility.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 15, 2025, at 2:15 PM revealed there was no
evidence of nursing staff competencies available.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to develop and
implement individualized person-centered care plans to address dementia and cognitive loss displayed by
one of three residents reviewed (Resident 20).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 20 revealed that the facility admitted her on July 19, 2024. Further
clinical record review revealed that a diagnosis of dementia (loss of memory, language, problem-solving,
and other thinking abilities that interfere with daily life), was added to her clinical record on July 29, 2024.

following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures.
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that
the resident's attending physician addressed pharmacy recommendations for five of six residents reviewed
for unnecessary medications (Residents 20. 26, 33, 42, and 45).
Findings include:
Review of Resident 26's clinical record revealed a progress note dated October 10, 2024, and again on
November 20, 2024, indicating that the pharmacist completed a drug regimen review for Resident 26 and to
see report for recommendations. There was no documented evidence in Resident 26's clinical record to
indicate what the pharmacist recommended or if it was addressed by Resident 26's physician.
Review of a pharmacy recommendation dated December 9, 2024, indicated that Resident 26 has been on
the same dose of Melatonin (a sleep aid) since 2022. The pharmacist recommended to evaluate the dose
or consider changing it to as needed. There was no documented evidence that this recommendation was
addressed by Resident 26's physician. Resident 26 remains on the same dose of Melatonin since 2022.
Review of a pharmacy recommendation dated January 13, 2025, indicated that Resident 26 has been on
the same dose of Haldol (an antipsychotic medication used to treat various mental disorders) since

Resident 26 remains on the same dose of Haldol since November 2023.
Review of Resident 26's pharmacy recommendation dated February 13, 2025, indicated that antipsychotics
have the capacity to cause tardive dyskinesia (a disorder causing involuntary movements). The pharmacist
recommended that Resident 26's physician conduct testing every six months to determine if tardive
dyskinesia is occurring. There was no documented evidence in Resident 26's clinical record to indicate that
this was addressed by Resident 26's physician.
Review of a pharmacy recommendation dated March 6, 2025, indicated that Resident 26 has been on the
same dose of Ativan (treats anxiety) since October 2023. The pharmacist recommended to evaluate the
Ativan dose for a gradual dose reduction. There was no documented evidence that this recommendation
was addressed by Resident 26's physician. Resident 26 remains on the same dose of Ativan since October
2023.

recommendations. There was no documented evidence in Resident 45's clinical record to indicate what the
pharmacist recommended or if it was addressed by Resident 45's physician.
Review of a pharmacy recommendation dated January 9, 2025, indicated that Resident 45 has been on the
same dose of Melatonin since February 2023. The pharmacist recommended to evaluate the dose for its
need. There was no documented evidence that this recommendation was addressed by Resident 45's
physician. Resident 45 remains on the same dose of Melatonin since February 2023.
Interview with the Administrator on May 16, 2025, at 8:59 AM confirmed the above findings for Residents
26, 33, and 45.
Clinical record review for Resident 20 revealed the pharmacist conducted a monthly medication review and
made recommendations on December 7, 2024, and January 13, 2025, that were not addressed or
addressed timely by the Resident 20's physician.
Review of the pharmacist recommendation dated December 7, 2024, requested a decrease in Resident
20's Trazodone (a medication used to treat insomnia and/or depression) 75 milligrams (mg) to 50 mg at
bedtime. The facility provided the surveyor with a copy of the pharmacy review, but it was not addressed or
signed by the physician. Review of Resident 20's clinical record revealed that his order for Trazodone was
decreased to 50 mg but not until April 7, 2025.
Review of the pharmacy recommendation dated January 13, 2025, revealed a request for the physician to
consider a decrease in Resident 20's Lexapro (a medication used to treat depression) 10 mg daily. The
facility provided the surveyor with a copy of the pharmacy review, but it was not addressed or signed by the
physician. Clinical record review for Resident 20 revealed that her Lexapro order continued at 10 mg daily.
Clinical record review for Resident 42 revealed that the consultant pharmacist completed a medication
review on August 12, 2024. The pharmacist identified that Resident 42 was on Celexa (an anti-depressant
medication) 20 mg once daily and requested that the physician address the need for a gradual dose
reduction of the medication. On September 13, 2024, Resident 42's physician addressed the pharmacist's
recommendation and decreased the Celexa to 10 mg daily.
On February 11, 2025, the consultant pharmacist again requested that Resident 42's Celexa 20 mg dosage
be reviewed for the need of a gradual dose reduction though Resident 42 was currently on Celexa 10 mg.
The physician again indicated to decrease the Celexa to 10 mg.
Resident 42's Celexa 10 mg order continued since the September 13, 2024, physician's response to the
pharmacist and was discontinued on March 17, 2025. There was no documentation that Resident 42's
Celexa was increased back to 20 mg.
Facility documentation dated May 15, 2025, revealed that the pharmacist missed Resident 42's Celexa
medication being decreased due to them forgetting to update their software.
The facility's contracted pharmacist failed to provide accurate information for Resident 42's medications
during their monthly medication review.
Further review of Resident 42's pharmacy medication review on February 11, 2025, revealed that the

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to store, prepare, and
serve food in a manner to prevent the potential spread of foodborne illness in the main kitchen and the
facility's pantry for three of three nursing units (First, Second, and Third Floor Nursing Unit; Resident 70).
Findings include:
Review of the 2022 Food and Drug Administration's Food Code revealed that the temperature of the wash
solution in spray type ware washers (dishwashers) that use hot water to sanitize may not be less than 160
degrees Fahrenheit and the temperature of the fresh hot water sanitizing rinse as it enters the manifold may
not be more than 194 degrees Fahrenheit or less than 180 degrees Fahrenheit for a single tank, conveyor,
dual temperature machine.
Observation of the facility's kitchen on May 13, 2025, at 9:16 AM revealed that staff were actively washing
dishes through the facility's high temperature, single tank, conveyor, dual temperature dishwashing
machine. The dishwasher was leaking large amounts water out of the bottom of the unit and onto the floor
each time the staff sent a rack of dishes though the machine. Concurrent observation of the dishwasher's
wash and final rinse temperatures revealed that the wash temperature was 146 degrees Fahrenheit, and
the final rinse temperature was 156 degrees Fahrenheit. Both gauges had acceptable sanitizing
temperature ranges identified on the gauge as the wash temperature range must be greater than 160
degrees Fahrenheit and the final rinse temperature must be between 180 degrees Fahrenheit and 194
degrees Fahrenheit.
Kitchen staff did not identify that the dishwasher water temperatures were not at or within the appropriate
temperatures to sterilize and sanitize dishes to prevent the potential for foodborne illness. Kitchen staff
continued to utilize the dishwasher after the low water temperatures were identified by the surveyor.
The facility's dishwasher temperatures did not meet temperatures to properly sanitize the facility's dishes.
Observation of the Third Floor Nursing Unit's pantry on May 16, 2025, at 10:45 AM revealed that there was
an undated, unlabeled container with a grilled sandwich inside the refrigerator.
Observation of the First Floor Nursing Unit's pantry on May 16, 2025, at 10:50 AM revealed that there was
an opened box of chocolate oatmeal pies labeled and available for Resident 70's use. The use by date was
May 11, 2025.
Observation of the Second Floor Nursing Unit's pantry on May 16, 2025, at 10:54 AM revealed that there
was an undated, unlabeled, open container of corn soup with a use by date of May 14, 2025, inside the
refrigerator.
The above information was reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator during an interview on May 13,
2025, at 10:20 AM and May 16, 2025, at 11:01 AM.

Services (CMS) on March 20, 2024, with an implementation date of April 1, 2024, revealed that nursing
care facilities are to use EBP for residents with chronic wounds or indwelling medical devices (i.e.,
indwelling urinary catheters) during high-contact resident care activities regardless of their
multidrug-resistant organism status. High-contact activity would include things like dressing, transferring,
changing linens, providing hygiene, changing briefs, wound care, or device care.
Review of the facility's current policy entitled Enhanced Barrier Precautions, revealed it is the facility's policy
to use EBP in addition to Standard Precautions (infection control practices used for all patients) when
Contact precautions (heightened infection control measures to prevent the spread of infections) do not
otherwise apply, or when a resident has a targeted multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs - bacteria that
have developed resistance to one or more antimicrobial drugs). The policy also indicated when EBP are
needed an appropriate EBP sign will be placed on the patient's room door, and personal protective
equipment (PPE) should be readily accessible and located outside the patient's room. The PPE is to be
used during high contact patient care activities such as dressing, bathing, transferring, providing hygiene,
changing linens or briefs, device care, or assisting with toileting. Before exiting the room, the PPE is to be
placed in the trash and hand hygiene performed upon exiting the room.
An observation of Resident 52's room on May 13, 2025, at 10:50 AM revealed the resident was out of the
room. A sign was observed on the door to the room indicating Stop - Standard Precautions plus Droplet
Precautions (infection control measures to prevent the spread of diseases that are transmitted through
respiratory droplets), and to wear a gown, gloves, and mask to enter the room. There were no PPE bins
containing gowns or masks outside the room or near the room, nor were any PPE disposal bins observed
in the room or directly outside the door to the room.
In an interview with Employee 7, nurse aide, on May 13, 2025, at 11:21 AM who was working in the hallway
where Resident 52 resided, indicated she was not sure why the sign was on Resident 52's door and was
not aware Resident 52 or any of his roommates were on any precautions, and indicated the sign may not
have been removed from flu season.
In an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on May 13, 2025, at 12:33 PM it was determined that
neither Resident 52 nor any of his roommates were to have Droplet Precautions and the sign was from an
old instance and had not been removed from the door, but Resident 52 is to have EBP in place due to a
history of an MDRO per the facility policy.
Clinical record review for Resident 52 revealed the resident has a history of draining wounds on his bilateral
lower extremities, and per a lab report result dated December 31, 2024, the resident's wound culture was
positive for Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA, bacteria resistant to several antibiotics, an
MDRO).
