Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
Based on observation and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure the results of
the most recent survey were posted in a place readily accessible to residents, family members, and legal
representatives in the main lobby of the facility and on one of two nursing units (First Floor Nursing Unit).
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
Observation of the main lobby of the facility on June 10, 2025, at 2:31 PM and the First Floor North Nursing
Unit resident lounge at 2:40 PM revealed a binder that should contain the results of the most recent survey
of the facility conducted by Federal or State surveyors and any plan of correction in effect with respect to
the facility.
Review of the contents of the binders revealed that the facility placed the full health survey letters and
complaint deficiency letters (letters sent to administration after a survey) into the binder; however, did not
place the Statement of Deficiencies (Form CMS-2567) as required. The deficiency letters placed in the
binders also noted the specific resident identifiers and associated resident names used for any cited
deficiencies that were listed in the letters.
The most recent Statement of Deficiencies contained in the binders was from 2023.
The facility failed to ensure the results of the most recent survey were posted in a place readily accessible
to residents, family members, and legal representatives.
The above information was reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator on June 10, 2025, at 2:45 PM.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on review of select facility policy and procedures, observations and staff interview, it was determined
that the facility failed to ensure residents' rights to secure and confidential personal and medical records on
the ground floor of the facility and one of two nursing units (First Floor Nursing Unit North Wing).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
A review of the facility policy titled, Safeguarding and Storage of Health Information Records, last reviewed
on August 21, 2024, revealed that the company will maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and
physical safeguards to protect the privacy of protected health information (PHI) from use or disclosure that
is a violation of federal and/or state regulations. The purpose of the policy was noted to limit unauthorized
access of PHI.
Further review of the facility policy revealed a section titled Procedure, that noted procedures such as the
following: protect all health information records from damage, loss, destruction, or unauthorized use; limit
viewing access by unauthorized personnel as well as visitors by returning records to their designated
storage location or closing when not in use; limit access to all other methods of storage of health
information, including medication administration record and treatment notebooks, close notebooks when
not in use to limit unauthorized access; overflow or discharge records must be filed in a systemic manner,
either alphabetically or numerically, in a location that ensures the privacy and security of the information; file
in a secure area such as a lockable cabinet or room/office that is not shared with other staff; when
discharge records are stored in alternate storage areas or with long term storage companies: limit access
to only authorized personnel; ensure the security of the paper documents and protect them from elements
such as moisture, water, rodents, and fire.
Observation on the North Wing of the First Floor Nursing Unit on June 10, 2025, at 10:24 AM revealed a
computer at the nurse's station that was logged into the resident electronic charting software. There were
no staff working at the computer or present in the immediate area upon initial observation, leaving the
electronic medical record logged into an unsecured area (the electronic health record is password
protected and must be logged into and out of to help ensure confidentiality).
Continued observation on June 10, 2025, at 10:33 AM revealed that the computer was still logged into the
electronic charting software. There was no staff member observed working at the computer and multiple
unidentified staff were observed walking by the open charting program.
Continued observation on June 10, 2025, at 10:47 AM revealed that the computer was still logged into the
electronic charting software and Employee 2, licensed practical nurse, proceeded to return to the nurse's
station and sit down at the computer.
Observation on North Wing of the First Floor Nursing Unit on June 11, 2025, at 10:25 AM revealed a
computer at the nurse's station that was logged into the resident electronic charting software. There were
no staff working at the computer or present in the immediate area upon initial observation and the
residents' electronic medical record was accessible and unsecured. Employee 2's name was noted as the
user logged into the charting software.

software, the employee proceeded to summon Employee 2 who returned to the nurse's station and began
working at the computer.
Observation on June 12, 2025, at 10:32 AM revealed an overflowing box of papers with the lid ajar just off
the main hallway that runs adjacent to the facility's main kitchen. The box was open, and the contents were
unsecured and accessible to anyone passing by (upon observation, housekeeping staff were observed
wheeling garbage cans by the area). Further observation revealed the box contained various medical
records and clinical documentation with identifiers of residents.
An interview with Employee 3, medical records, on June 12, 2025, at 10:39 AM revealed that the box
contained medical records that are awaiting pick-up from a contracted off-site storage company. However, it
was unclear when the storage company would be coming and could be as early as today or weeks from
now.
The facility failed to ensure residents' rights to secure and confidential personal and medical records.

Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals.
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 provide the
highest practicable care regarding physician ordered medication parameters for one of 24 residents
reviewed (Resident 317).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 317 revealed a diagnosis list that included atrial fibrillation (an irregular
and sometimes rapid heart rhythm that can lead to complications such as stroke and heart failure) and
essential hypertension (high blood pressure).
Review of Resident 317's current care plan revealed the resident is at risk for cardiovascular symptoms or
complications related to low blood pressure due to medications with parameters in place.
A review of the current physician orders for Resident 317 revealed an order dated March 1, 2025, for
Metoprolol Succinate ER Extended Release (a medication that is used to treat high blood pressure and/or
heart rate) 25 milligrams (mg) give half a tablet by mouth one time a day for hypertension. Hold for a
systolic blood pressure (SBP, the top number of a blood pressure reading where the heart contracts) less
than 100 or pulse less than 60.
A review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for June 2025, for Resident 317 revealed that the
Metoprolol was marked as administered outside of the physician specified parameters for the following
dates:
June 1, the resident's pulse was documented as 56
June 2, the pulse was documented as 56
June 9, the pulse was documented as 56
June 10, the pulse was documented as 51
June 11, the pulse was documented as 51
There was no documentation for Resident 317 why the medication was administered outside of the specific
physician ordered parameters.
The above information for Resident 317 was reviewed in a meeting with the Nursing Home Administrator
(NHA) and Director of Nursing (DON) on June 11, 2025, at 1:45 PM.
Further review of Resident 317's medical record revealed that staff documented on the MAR for June 12,
2025, that the Metoprolol was administered despite a corresponding blood pressure noted as 90/54.
The above information for Resident 317 for the Metoprolol administration on June 12, 2025, was reviewed
in a meeting with the NHA and DON on June 12, 2025, at 2:00 PM.

Provide safe, appropriate dialysis care/services for a resident who requires such services.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on clinical record review, observation, and staff and resident interview, it was determined that the
facility failed to ensure the availability of necessary emergency supplies for one of one resident reviewed
receiving hemodialysis (Resident 15).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
In an interview and observation of Resident 15 on June 10, 2025, at 11:42 AM the resident indicated he
attended dialysis outside the facility three days a week and that his access site was in his arm.
Concurrent observation of Resident 15's room did not reveal any emergency supplies used to control
bleeding such as sterile gauze, hemostat (a tool used to control bleeding), needleless connector, or tape in
the resident's room readily available should the resident start bleeding from his dialysis access site. With
the resident's permission to look inside his closet there was also no evidence of any emergency supplies in
Resident 15's closet.
Clinical record review for Resident 15 revealed the resident was receiving hemodialysis (a machine that
performs a basic function of the kidney by cleansing the blood of impurities) three days a week outside the
facility and the resident had an AV (arteriovenous) fistula (a surgically created connection between and
artery and a vein) for dialysis.
In a follow up observation of Resident 15's room on June 11, 2025, at 9:35 AM, Employee 1, licensed
practical nurse, checked Resident 15's closet, bedside drawers, and bag the resident transported back and
forth to dialysis, and could not locate emergency supplies.
The above information was reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on June
11, 2025, at 12:37 PM.

Provide the appropriate treatment and services to a resident who displays or is diagnosed with dementia.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to develop and implement
an individualized person-centered care plan to address dementia and cognitive loss displayed by one of
three residents reviewed (Resident 18).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 18 revealed that the facility admitted her on May 31, 2014. 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 October 1, 2022.
A review of Resident 18's significant change Minimum Data Set (MDS, a form completed at specific
intervals to determine care needs) assessment dated [DATE], indicated that the facility assessed Resident
18 as having a diagnosis of dementia. The facility determined that a care plan for dementia and cognitive
loss would be developed.
A review of Resident 18's current care plan entitled, Cognitive loss as evidenced by forgetfulness related to
dementia last revised on February 20, 2020, and her care plan entitled At risk for behavior symptoms due
to dementia initiated on April 17, 2025, failed to identify individualized person-centered approaches to
address Resident 18's dementia and cognitive loss to include indications of distress and how she
communicates unmet needs such as pain, discomfort, hunger, thirst and frustration.
The findings were reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator on June 13, 2025, at 10:30 AM.

Ensure medication error rates are not 5 percent or greater.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure a medication
error rate below five percent (First Floor Nursing Unit North Wing; Resident 22).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
The facility's medication error rate was 7.14 percent based on 28 medication opportunities with two
medication errors.
Observation of Resident 22's medication administration pass on June 12, 2025, at 9:05 AM revealed that
Employee 4, licensed practical nurse (LPN), prepared the medications prior to administration.
Employee 4 went to Resident 22's room and placed one drop of Brimonidine Tartrate-Timolol Ophthalmic
Solution 0.2-0.5% (a medication administered via eye drops to lower the pressure in the eyes known as
intraocular pressure) into each of the resident's eyes.
Review of Resident 22's clinical record revealed a physician's order dated March 6, 2025, that noted
Brimonidine Tartrate-Timolol Ophthalmic Solution (0.2-0.5%) instill one drop in the right eye two times a day
for glaucoma (an eye condition that can lead to vision loss or blindness and is often associated with
increased pressure in the eye).
A follow-up interview with Employee 4 on June 12, 2025, at 9:23 AM confirmed that the drops were
administered in both eyes at the time of the medication pass and are only ordered for the right eye.
Employee 4 administered one lactase enzyme supplement (an enzyme to help break down lactose in milk
products to help treat lactose intolerance) to Resident 22. Resident 22 did not have any food present at the
time of the administration.
Review of Resident 22's clinical record revealed a physician's order dated March 25, 2025, that noted
Lactaid Oral Tablet (Lactase) give one tablet by mouth every day with meals at 7:30 AM/11:30 AM/4:30 PM
for lactose intolerance.
A review of the instructions on the bottle of the medication revealed to swallow the capsules with the first
bite of dairy food, and the medication can be used every day with every meal.
Resident 22's Lactaid Oral Tablet (Lactase) was not given with a meal.
An interview with Employee 5, registered nurse, on June 13, 2025, at 12:01 PM revealed that Resident 22's
family sometimes brings in breakfast for her.
An interview with Resident 22 on June 13, 2025, at 12:03 PM revealed that the resident's family did bring in
breakfast for her on June 12, 2025, and reported the time as 7:20 AM.
