Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on review of clinical and facility records, and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to ensure accurate communication regarding information about the resident's Medicare eligibility and coverage for one of 26 residents reviewed (Resident CR109).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include: Resident CR109's clinical record revealed an admission date of 12/09/24, and discharge date of 1/24/25, with diagnoses that included osteomyelitis (inflammation of bone caused by infection) of left ankle and foot, anemia (a condition where the blood does not have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout the body), metabolic encephalopathy (a condition where the brain's function is impaired due to an imbalance in chemicals in the brain affecting cognitive function, consciousness, and behavior), and chronic atrial fibrillation (an irregular, often rapid heart rate that commonly causes poor blood flow throughout the heart and body. A facility invoice dated 3/17/25, revealed a balance due of $13,939.05 for Resident CR109's stay/services from 12/09/24, through 1/24/25. An interview with the Business Office Manager (BOM) Employee E5 on 4/03/25, at 2:15 p.m. revealed that he/she communicated to Resident CR109's resident representative on 12/23/24, that Resident CR109 had Medicare days available to cover days of stay/services at the facility, indicating the stay at the facility would be covered by his/her insurance, and that Resident CR109 and/or their responsible party would not be responsible to pay privately. The BOM Employee E5 further confirmed that on 1/28/25, he/she later discovered that Resident CR109 had exhausted his/her Medicare insurance benefits, and Resident CR109 would be financially responsible as private pay for the days of stay/services from 12/09/24, through 1/24/25. The BOM Employee E5 indicated that it is sometimes confusing how insurance and Medicare coverage plays catch up, and referenced the January 2025 billing cycle that Resident CR109 would be financially responsible as private pay since no Medicare days were available to cover days of stay. This failure of adherence to communicating accurate information regarding Medicare eligibility and coverage resulted in Resident CR109/their resident representative not having an opportunity to make an adequate informed decision to continue Resident CR109's stay at the facility, or have the choice to be discharged to alternative home care services and other financial options. 28 Pa.

Staff members are strictly prohibited from furnishing their personal smoking materials to residents. Residents electing to smoke must provide their own smoking materials. Observations during the full health survey on 4/1/25, 4/2/25, and 4/3/25 throughout each day revealed Resident R42 had several electronic cigarettes/vaporizers sitting on his/her bedside table and one electronic cigarette/vaporizer in his/her hand and on 4/2/25, at approximately 2:30 p.m. Resident R42 was observed smoking his/her electronic cigarette/vaporizer in his/her room. An interview with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) and the Director of Nursing (DON) on 4/3/25, at approximately 4:00 p.m. confirmed that Resident R42 smokes his/her electronic cigarette/vaporizer in his/her room, which is an unauthorized smoking area and against facility policy. The NHA and DON further confirmed that this resident also keeps his/her own electronic cigarettes/vaporizers, therefore the facility has no accountability of them, and Resident R42 refuses to follow the facility smoking policy which places other residents, staff, and visitors at a safety risk. 28 Pa.
