This survey cited 3 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0583 Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observations and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to maintain a resident's right to privacy and confidentiality during a physician visit for one resident (Resident 4) and failed to provide personal privacy during a transfer in a mechanical lift for one resident (Resident 5) out of five sampled residents Residents Affected - Few Findings include: During an observation of the C2 unit dining room at 11:51 PM multiple residents were observed assembled in this dining room awaiting lunch. Resident 4 was observed seated in a reclining chair near the window in the back of the room with another resident seated next to her in a reclining chair. There were also multiple residents seated at tables also awaiting their lunch service. Resident 4's physician arrived in the dining room to greet the resident, the resident replied that she was happy to see him. The physician was observed to ask the resident about her her recent hospitalization and the was heard asking the resident in a loud voice how are your bowels? The physician continued to ask the resident questions and check her abdomen in the presence and hearing distance of other residents. A review of nursing documentation dated June 25, 2024 at 12:57 indicated the physician was in and examined the resident. The physician visited this resident in the common area and asked personal health questions while in the presence of other residents. The physician failed to ensure the resident's personal privacy was maintained during this visit. A review of Resident 5's clinical record revealed this resident had a diagnosis of quadriplegia (condition in which both the arms and legs are paralyzed and lose normal motor function) and cerebral palsy (group of conditions that affect movement and posture. It's caused by damage that occurs to the developing brain, most often before birth) and required the use of a mechanical lift for transfers in and out of bed as per her comprehensive care plan of June 24, 2022. During an observation on the C2 unit at 1:30 PM while walking past Resident 4's room the door was open and two staff members were transferring the resident in a mechanical lift. The privacy curtain was not drawn nor the door closed. This resident could be viewed, elevated in the lift, from the hallway by any residents or visitors passing by the room. The facility failed to ensure this resident was provided with privacy while staff were providing care and transferring her in a mechanical lift. The facility administrative staff confirmed the door to the residents room should be closed or a privacy curtain should be used when residents are provided personal care. 28 Pa.

Based on observation and staff interview, it was determined the facility failed to maintain a safe and orderly environment for residents, including comfortable temperatures. Residents Affected - Some Findings include: During observations on June 25, 2024, at 8:30 AM it was determined the facility air conditioning was not functioning. Interview with the facility's director of maintenance at 10:00 AM revealed the hallway air conditioning was not functioning on the D unit since before June 10, 2024, and the air conditioner that supplied the two large activity rooms on the D unit were also not functioning. Each area required two separate repairs. The D units air conditioners were not functioning as of June 25, 2025, and alternate sources of portable air were placed in the halls and in the window of one activity room when the temperatures exceeded 90 degrees F Fahrenheit outside, which began on June 17, 2024. One activity room was closed due to the excessively hot temperature. A review of the temperatures obtained from the facility on the D unit that were provided for review ranged as follows: June 19, 2024 74 degrees Fahrenheit to 84 degrees Fahrenheit June 21, 2024 74 degrees Fahrenheit to 80 degrees Fahrenheit June 22, 2024 72 degrees Fahrenheit to 84 degrees Fahrenheit June 23, 2024 70 degrees Fahrenheit to 86 degrees Fahrenheit Outside environmental temperatures for the above dates were upwards from 93 to 97 degrees Fahrenheit. A review of facility temperatures for the C2 unit obtained by the facility on the following dates revealed: June 19, 2024 79 degrees Fahrenheit to 85 degrees Fahrenheit June 21, 2024 79 degrees Fahrenheit to 80 degrees Fahrenheit June 22, 2024 77 degrees Fahrenheit to 88 degrees Fahrenheit June 23, 2024 75 degrees Fahrenheit to 86 degrees Fahrenheit Interview with the director of maintenance and NHA on June 25, 2024, at approximately 10:00 AM revealed the facility was aware the rooftop air conditioner that cooled the C1 and C2 units was not working and needed to be repaired.

F 0584 1 stated her daughter brought the air conditioner in because it was too hot in her room. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm An observation of Resident 3's room revealed three fans. One free standing fan in the middle of the floor between the two beds in the room, plugged in an outlet next to the sink, creating a tripping and accident hazard. A second large tabletop fan was on top of the dresser against the wall. A smaller third fan was located on the dresser near the mirror. The resident stated that he purchased all three fans. These fans were not secured in any manner to prevent accidental tippage or impediments to safe mobility. Residents Affected - Some Observation on June 25, 2024 at 7:50 AM on the C2 unit the following was observed: A free standing air conditioning unit was observed in the doorway of a closet in the hallway, connecting both side of the hallways, with the ventilation tube extending up into the ceiling of hallway, next to the resident dining room. The closet door remained open and the air conditioning unit was not secured and the plugged into an extension cord which extended across the floor to the wall outlet creating a potential tripping hazard. The open door allowed for access to the inside of this closet, which housed an inoperable ice machine the drainage tube from the air conditioner went into the drain on the floor of the room. This open closet door was now positioned between two hand rails impeding continued to access to the handrails. Observation on June 25, 2024, revealed a resident bathroom in the corner of the the dining room on the C2 unit. The door was open and a free standing air conditioning unit was positioned in the doorway to the resident bathroom. The ventilation tubing went through a hole in the ceiling and the unit was plugged into a cord into the outlet next to the sink. The condensation tubing was placed through the support bar/handrail of the toilet under the toilet seat to drain into the toilet. This rendered the bathroom inaccessible to residents and created a tripping hazard if a resident were to enter this bathroom. There was an unidentified staff member in the dining room at the time of the observation and when asked if residents used this bathroom he indicated yes. An observation of the D unit, a secured unit for residents with impaired cognition and behaviors, at 8:15 AM on June 25, 2024, revealed multiple residents ambulating up and down the hallway and self-propelling in their wheelchairs. Upon entry to the unit on the right side of the hallway in front of the handrails, a portable free standing air conditioning unit and small fan (in use) were plugged into an outlet. The ventilation tubing went into a hole in the ceiling and the condensation hose was draining into a large bucket. The items were freely moveable and not secured in anyway and obstructed the handrails on that side of the corridor. A second setup was located around the corner of the nursing station, to the left in the hallway on the right hand side of this hallway obstructing access to the handrails and were also not secured in any manner to prevent tipping. Throughout the day of the survey on June 25, 2024, a small portable fan was observed plugged into an outlet and running in the middle of the hallway on the C2 unit. The fan was also not secured with the potential to cause a tripping hazard or risk of tipping over. Interview the nursing home administrator (NHA) and maintenance director on June 25, 2024 at approximately 10:00 AM revealed the facility air conditioning which cooled the C unit failed on approximately June 18, 2024. The D unit hallway air conditioning unit was also not working since approximately since June 10, 2024, and the facility was awaiting parts to repair.
