F 0627 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure the transfer/discharge meets the resident's needs/preferences and that the resident is prepared for a safe transfer/discharge. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on clinical record reviews, interviews with staff and hospital staff, reviews of hospital records, electronic communication records and facility policies and procedures, it was determined that the facility failed to permit one of one resident reviewed to return to the facility after hospitalization. (Resident R12) Findings include: Review of the policy titled Bed Holds and Returns revised March 2022 revealed that Residents and/or representatives are informed (in writing) of the facility and state (if applicable) bed-hold politicizes. All residents/representatives are provided written information regarding the facility bed-hold policies, which address holding or reserving a resident's bed during periods of absence (hospitalization ortherapeutic leave). Residents are provided written information about these policies at least twice: a. well in advance of any transfer (e.g., in the admission packet); and b. at the time of transfer (or, if the transfer was an emergency, within 24 hours). 2. Reissuance of the notice is provided if there are changes made to the bed-hold policy under the state plan or facility policy. 3. The written information regarding bed-holds provided to the residents/representatives explains in detail: a. the duration of the state bed-hold policy, if any, during which the resident is permitted to return and resume residence in the facility; b. the reserve bed payment policy as indicated by the state plan (for Medicaid residents); c. the facility policies regarding bed-hold periods; d. the facility per diem rate required to hold a bed (for non-Medicaid residents), or to hold a bed beyond the state bed-hold period (for Medicaid residents); and e. the return policy. 4. Medicaid residents who exceed the state's bed-hold limit and/or non-Medicaid residents who request a bed-hold are responsible for the facility's basic per diem rate while his or her bed is held. 5. If a Medicaid resident exceeds the state bed-hold period, he or she will be permitted to return to the facility, to his or her previous room (if available) or immediately upon the first availability of a bed in a semi-private room provided that the resident requires the services of the facility and is eligible for Medicare skilled nursing services or Medicaid nursing services. 6. If the resident is transferred with the expectation that he or she will return, but it is determined that the resident cannot return, that resident will be formally discharged . 7. The resident will be permitted to return to an available bed in the location of the facility that he or she previously resided. If there is not an available bed in that part, the resident will be given the option to take an available bed in another distinct part of the facility and return to the previous distinct part when a bed becomes available.

F 0627 to the local hospital. Patient not expected to return to facility on 5/13/2025. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Review of discharge Miniman Data Set (MDS- assessment of resident care needs) dated May 13, 2025, for Resident R12 revealed that the resident was discharged and return to the facility was anticipated. Residents Affected - Few On May 28, 2025, at 11:42 a.m., an interview with the Director of Nursing, Employee E2, revealed that the local hospital notified the facility on May 15, 2025, that Resident R12 had been cleared for return. However, documentation shows that the facility did not permit the resident to return until May 20, 2025, resulting in a five-day delay. On May 28, 2025, at 1:40 p.m., an interview with the Administrator, Employee E1, revealed that on May 15, 2025, the local hospital contacted the facility to report that psychiatric findings had determined Resident R12 did not require admission to the psychiatric unit; therefore, did not meet the criteria and was ready to be returned to the facility. On May 16, 2025, the facility requested that the hospital continue to hold Resident R12 until Monday, May 19, 2025, in order to allow time to seek an alternative placement, as the resident had expressed a preference to transfer to a different facility while being at the hospital. On May 29, 2025, at 3:49 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Case Management Director at the hospital. The Case Manager stated that the facility had denied readmission for Resident R12. According to the hospital records, Resident R12 was medically cleared and ready to return to the facility on May 15, 2025. A call was placed to the facility's Director of Nursing, Employee E2, and the Administrator, Employee E1, who indicated they wanted to speak with the psychiatrist who had cleared the resident for return. A call was placed by the hospital to the treating psychiatist. A follow-up call was made by the hospital on May 15, 2025. During that call, the facility operator reportedly stated, I'm telling you, we're not taking him back. Hospital staff then requested a return call from either the Director of Nursing or the Administrator. Later that same day, the facility's Regional Director returned the call and asked the hospital to keep Resident R12 for few days, to allow the facility time to make staffing arrangements. On May 16, 2025, hospital staff informed Resident R12 that the facility was refusing to accept his return. At no point did Resident R12 refuse to return to the facility. The facility ultimately accepted Resident R12 back on May 20, 2025, resulting in a five-day delay from the date he was medically cleared for discharge. On May 28, 2025, at 2:25 p.m., the Administrator confirmed that the facility had received a notice of Resident R12's anticipated return on May 15, 2025. However, the facility did not permit the resident to return until May 20, 2025, resulting in a five-day delay. 28 PA. Code 201.14(a)(b) Responsibility of licensee 28 PA.

Findings include: On May 28, 2025, at 9:20 a.m. during the initial tour of the 1st floor Pavilion nursing unit, it was observed that residents did not receive their coffee beverage. Residents' trays had juice on their trays, but there were no hot beverages. During a random room tour, it was observed that breakfast trays remained on bedside tray tables in Rooms 124 through 138. However, there was no evidence of hot beverage cups containing hot beverages on any of the trays. On May 28, 2025, at 9:33 a.m., an interview was conducted with Resident R13, who reported that her egg omelet was burned and that she was still hungry. She also stated that she prefers coffee as her morning hot beverage, but no coffee was provided on her breakfast tray. At the surveyor's request, the resident pressed the call bell. In response, Nursing Assistant Employee E9 entered the room and explained that she had already requested coffee from the kitchen an hour earlier, but it had not yet been delivered. Resident R13 informed Employee E9 that her omelet was burned and requested a new breakfast tray. Employee E9 responded by stating, All the omelets were burned, and they will not give you a new plate, but you will receive the same breakfast plate as you had. On May 28, 2025, at 9:39 a.m., Employee E9 reported that Resident R10 had not yet received his breakfast because his bed was broken and could not be adjusted to raise the head section. As a result, she needed to transfer the resident into a wheelchair before he could eat his now-cold breakfast. Employee E9 stated that she had ordered a new breakfast tray for Resident R10. On May 28, 2025, at 9:40 a.m., an interview was conducted with Resident R8, who reported that a staff member entered his room and removed his breakfast tray before he had finished eating. Resident R8 stated that he still needed to finish his Magic Cup supplement and Ensure drink. Scheduler Employee E7, who was assisting the nursing unit with tray collection, confirmed that Resident R8 is prescribed both Magic Cup and Ensure as dietary supplements. Further, Scheduler, Employee E7 confirmed that dietary aide brought two pitchers of coffee but there were not hot beverage cups available to pour them in. On May 28, 2025, at 10:01 a.m., a kitchen tour was conducted with Dietary Assistant Employee E6. Employee E6 confirmed that the omelets served that morning were burned due to sticking to the metal serving container, and that these were served to all residents. It was further revealed that the facility lacks adequate hot beverage cups to serve hot drinks. All six breakfast delivery trucks were returned from the nursing units; only six hot beverage cups were observed in total, despite a facility census of 120 residents.
