**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy, review of clinical records, observations, and interviews with staff, it was determined
that the facility failed to promptly notify a residents representative of a change in condition related to an
elopement for one of 36 residents reviewed (Resident R223).Findings Include:Review of undated facility
policy Resident Elopement Protocol revealed the unit manager/supervisor would be responsible to notify
the resident representative of the elopement.Review of Resident R223's clinical record revealed the
resident was admitted to the facility's 2nd Floor North Side nursing unit on December 11, 2025, and had
diagnoses of Dementia (decline in memory or other thinking skills severe enough to reduce a person's
ability to perform everyday activities), Apraxia (neurological disorder that affects motor planning and
coordination), Diabetes Mellitus (ability to produce or respond to the hormone insulin is impaired, resulting
in abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates and elevated levels of glucose), and Hypertension (high blood
pressure).Review of Resident R223's hospital documentation dated December 11, 2025, revealed Resident
R223 was brought to the emergency department for inability to care for self and need for long-term
placement. Resident R223 was noted to be living with a caregiver but due to patient's agitation and frequent
elopements they were no longer able to care for Resident R223.Continued review of Resident R223's
clinical record revealed a Brief Interview for Mental Status assessment conducted on December 12, 2025,
determined that Resident R223 had severe cognitive impairment.Review of Resident R223's
comprehensive care plan revised December 12, 2025, revealed the resident was an elopement
risk/wanderer related to history of dementia and wandering. Wander guard applied to left ankle.
Interventions dated December 12, 2025, included placing resident photograph at reception/exit and
Resident R223 was on Center Watch Program (facility elopement binder maintained at front desk) for
elopement risk.On December 17, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., the Director of Nursing, Employee E2, informed
Department of Health surveyors that a resident [identified as Resident R223] eloped from the facility in the
evening of December 15, 2025.Interview on December 17, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. with the Nursing Home
Administrator, Employee E1, confirmed that revealed that she, as well as the Director of Nursing, Employee
E2, were informed Resident R223 was missing on 12/15/2025 at approximately 10:30 p.m. Nursing Home
Administrator, Employee E1, and Director of Nursing, Employee E2, both arrived at the building by
approximately 11:30 p.m. to conduct a search of the building and perimeter with no luck in locating the
resident.Further interview with the Nursing Home Administrator, Employee E1, on December 17, 2025, at
9:00 a.m. revealed she was notified by the police on 12/16/2025 around 7:00 a.m. that Resident R223 was
located at a near-by hospital. The Nursing Home Administrator, Employee E1, promptly went to the hospital
on [DATE] to positively identify Resident R223. Further interview on December 17, 2025, with Nursing
Home Administrator, Employee E1, revealed Resident R223's representative was not notified that Resident
R223 eloped from the building on 12/15/2025, and was subsequently missing overnight in freezing

Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited
to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility documentation, observations, and staff interviews it was determined that the facility failed
to provide a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment on two of two nursing units (2-North and
1-North)
Findings include:
Review of facility policy titled Resident Rights-Safe Clean Comfortable Homelike Environment dated April 1,
2022, revealed that the facility policy affirms residents' rights to a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike
environment. It specifically requires the facility to maintain comfortable and safe temperature levels as part
of ensuring resident comfort and well-being. Maintaining appropriate room temperatures is a core
responsibility of the facility's housekeeping and maintenance services and is essential to providing care and
services safely while respecting resident rights. Failure to maintain comfortable temperatures would be
inconsistent with the facility's obligation to provide a homelike environment as outlined in this policy and
required under CMS standards.
Observation during the initial tour of the facility on December 15, 2025, at 09:55 a.m. revealed, multiple
resident rooms on the second-floor nursing unit were observed to feel cold and uncomfortable. Resident
R125 was observed in the hallway wrapped in blankets.
Continued observation with the Maintenance Director employee E11 at 10:52 AM revealed the following
room temperature readings:
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 68.9 degrees Feirenheight
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 68.9 degrees Feirenheight
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 64.6 degrees Feirenheight
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 64 degrees Feirenheight
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 65 degrees Feirenheight
room [ROOM NUMBER]: 65.5 degrees Feirenheight
Recreation Room: 66 degrees Feirenheight
These temperatures were below the expected comfort range for resident living areas and were inconsistent
with maintaining a comfortable, homelike environment.
Interviews with the Maintenance Director Employee E11at the time of observation revealed that it was his
first day of employment at the facility. He stated he was previously unaware of the temperature issues and
believed the problem was related to malfunctioning P-Tech heating units in individual rooms. He stated he
would immediately contact the HVAC company to address the issue.
Interviews with residents on the nursing unit revealed no resident complaints related to room

temperature. Some residents stated they preferred cooler temperatures and described them as invigorating.
However, despite the lack of resident complaints, temperatures remained below acceptable comfort
standards.
Interview with Maintenance director employee E 11 on December revealed the following corrective actions:
Conducted an audit of all individual P-Tech heating units and the overall heating system, relocated
residents from rooms with significantly low temperatures to ensure comfort, provided additional blankets to
residents as needed, installed portable heating units in common areas, including activity rooms and dining
rooms. Contracted an external HVAC company to assess and repair the heating system and malfunctioning
P-Tech units and implemented daily temperature audits for resident rooms and common areas.
Observation On December 16, 2025, at 09:10 a.m., of the first- and second-floor nursing units revealed that
temperatures were within acceptable standards in all resident rooms, with the exception of two rooms.
Residents from those rooms had already been relocated for comfort. Documentation of daily temperature
audits was provided by the Maintenance Director, along with confirmation that the HVAC company
evaluated the system and initiated necessary repairs.
All residents interviewed during follow-up stated they felt the facility living spaces were comfortable and had
no concerns regarding temperature.
Observations on December 15, 2025, at 11:40 a.m. in the 2-North lounge revealed a large, white
commercial refrigerator toward the back left side of the room. Up to 8 residents were observed sitting in the
lounge, waiting for lunch to be delivered.
Surveyor proceeded to open the refrigerator and observed an old, rotting supplement (intended to be
refrigerated) shake. The box was rotting and discolored. A foul odor proceeded to take over the room.
Interview on December 15, 2025, at 11:45 a.m. with Unit Manager, Employee E17, revealed the refrigerator
in the 2-north lounge has been broken and was supposed to be removed from the room. Unit Manager,
Employee E17, confirmed the rotting supplement left in the fridge and is not sure when it was from.
Follow-up observations on December 15, 2025, at 12:45 p.m. in the 2-North lounge revealed the fridge was
removed, however mouse droppings were left on the floor that was beneath the fridge. Up to 8 residents
were observed sitting in the lounge having lunch.
Unit Manager, Employee E17, confirmed mouse droppings in the 2-North lounge on December 15, 2025, at
12:45 p.m.
Observations on December 15, 2025, at 11:50 a.m. revealed Resident R185's foot board (in room [ROOM
NUMBER]-A) was missing on the bed. Resident R185 reported it fell off, and maintenance did not fix it
correctly.
Observations on December 16, 2025, at 12:20 p.m. in room [ROOM NUMBER] revealed the window was
unable to be closed all the way, allowing a constant flow of cold air in from the outside.

Assess the resident completely in a timely manner when first admitted, and then periodically, at least every
12 months.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy, review of clinical records and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility
failed to ensure pre-admission screening and resident review, (PASRR Level I screenings(a program that
ensures Individuals with a serious mental illness or intellectual development developmental disabilities
aren't unnecessary place in nursing homes and if they are they receive specialized services.) were
accurately completed for two (2) residents. Specifically, the facility did not correctly identify or document
indicators of serious mental illness and/or intellectual disability on the PASRR Level I screens, resulting in
inaccurate PASRR determinations for these residents. (resident R 79 and R184) Review of the facility's
PASRR policy titled Preadmissions screening and Resident Review PASRR Program dated April 1, 2022,
and reviewed December 2025, requires that all residents admitted to the facility receive a complete and
accurate Pre-admission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) in compliance with State and Federal
regulations. The policy requires the facility to fully coordinate with the PASRR program and ensure that
PASRR Level I and Level II determinations, evaluations, and recommendations are accurately identified,
documented, and incorporated into the resident's assessment, care plan, and transitions of care, including
correct identification of serious mental illness, intellectual disability, or related conditions. The policy further
requires referral for a Level II PASRR review when a resident has a known or suspected mental illness or
intellectual disability or experiences a significant change in condition that may indicate such diagnoses. In
addition, the policy prohibits admission of individuals with mental illness or intellectual disability without a
prior State determination confirming the need for nursing facility level of care and whether specialized
services are required, and mandates timely notification to the State authority when significant changes
occur. Failure to accurately and completely complete PASRR screenings, initiate required Level II reviews,
or incorporate PASRR findings into resident assessments results in incomplete and inaccurate PASRR
determinations and is inconsistent with facility policy and CMS PASRR requirements.Review of Resident
#12's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a federally mandated assessment tool required for all residents), revealed
that a quarterly assessment dated [DATE], indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The
assessment documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of zero (0), indicating severe
cognitive impairment and the need for maximum assistance with functional abilities. The MDS further
identified Resident #12 with diagnoses of dementia (defined as a progressive neurocognitive disorder
characterized by memory loss, impaired reasoning, and diminished ability to perform daily activities);
anxiety(a mental health condition involving excessive fear or worry that interferes with functioning);
depression( a mood disorder characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest, and impaired daily
functioning); and bipolar disorder(a serious mental illness characterized by episodes of depression and
mania or hypomania that significantly affect mood, behavior, and functional capacity).Review of Resident
#12's PASRR dated September 12, 2023, revealed the resident was inaccurately identified as not having
any mental health condition that may lead to a chronic disability, despite documented mental health
diagnoses in the resident record.Review of Resident R184's PASRR dated January 27, 2021, revealed the
resident had a documented diagnosis of schizophrenia. Further review of this document indicated the
resident was treated by a psychiatrist and participated in an outpatient mental health program. However,
continued review of the same PASRR reflected contradictory information, stating the resident had not been
treated in an outside psychiatric setting and had not participated in a partial psychiatric program or received
mental health services. The facility failed to ensure accurate identification of serious mental illness and

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
policy review, observations, clinical record review, and interviews it was determined that the facility did not
ensure the comprehensive care plan was implemented for three of thirty-six residents reviewed (Resident
R87, R156, and R56). Findings Include:
Review of the facility policy titled, Baseline Care Plan, Comprehensive Care Plan and Ongoing Care Plan
Updates with a revision date on October 1, 2024 states, Policy Statement-the facility will follow a uniform
process for initiating the baseline care plan upon admission, the Comprehensive care plan upon CAA
completion, and ensuring care plans are updated to reflect the resident's status.
Review of Resident R87's clinical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
the following diagnosis: Dementia (severe decline in mental abilities, like memory, thinking, and reasoning),
Anxiety (natural feeling of worry, tension, or fear about future events, often with physical symptoms like a
rapid heart rate or sweating, acting as a stress response to potential threats), and Bi-polar Disorder (a
serious mental illness causing extreme shifts in mood, energy, and activity levels, from high manic (elated,
irritable, energetic) episodes to low depressive (sad, hopeless) episodes, significantly impacting daily
function, sleep, and thinking). Review of Resident R87's current care plan with a date of August 28, 2025,
there is no focus, goal, or interventions for the diagnosis of Anxiety or B Bipolar Disorder.
Review of Resident R156's clinical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
the following diagnosis: Alcohol Abuse in remission, Cocaine Abuse in remission, Sedative Hypnotic or
Anxiolytic Dependence in remission. Review of Resident R156's current care plan with a date of November
14, 2025, there is no focus, goal, or interventions for the diagnosis of Alcohol Abuse in remission, Cocaine
Abuse in remission, Sedative Hypnotic or Anxiolytic Dependence in remission despite documented
evidence in the care plan of the resident abusing the current smoking policy. The current care plan dated
November 14, 2025 states, Focus-The resident has a behavior problem hoarding personal medication from

Review of Facility policy titled Baseline Care plan, Comprehensive Care Plan, and Ongoing Care Plan
Updates last revised October 1st 2024 revealed that the facility policy requires the development of a
baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission and a comprehensive, person-centered care plan within 7
days of the comprehensive assessment. Care plans must identify all medical, nursing, mental, and
psychosocial needs, including measurable goals and interventions to maintain the resident's highest
practicable well-being. The policy mandates that care plans be developed by an interdisciplinary team in
consultation with the resident and/or representative and must reflect all diagnoses, treatments, and risks
identified in the resident's assessments, physician orders, and PASARR recommendations. Care plans
must include clear instructions for staff to monitor, manage, and respond to conditions, including acute or
potentially life-threatening medical issues, and be updated promptly when a resident's condition or
physician orders change. Failure to include specific diagnoses, such as

pulmonary embolisms or tachycardia, and corresponding interventions, monitoring parameters, and
notification instructions constitutes noncompliance with this policy.
Review of Resident R56's Minimum Data Set (MDS), a federally mandated assessment tool, revealed a
quarterly assessment dated [DATE], which indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including cardiac arrest, (defined as the sudden cessation of effective heart function resulting in
loss of blood flow to vital organs); respiratory failure(inability of the lungs to adequately exchange oxygen
and carbon dioxide); anoxic brain injury (brain damage caused by a complete lack of oxygen resulting in
cognitive and functional impairment); and dysphasia (a communication disorder characterized by impaired
ability to understand or express speech). The MDS further documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status
(BIMS) score of seven (7), indicating severe cognitive impairment.
Review of the resident's clinical record revealed hospital documentation indicating the resident was
evaluated in the emergency department for tachycardia, defined as an abnormally elevated heart rate, with
documented heart rates ranging from 140 to 150 beats per minute, and was diagnosed with multiple
pulmonary embolisms, defined as blood clots that obstruct blood flow in one or more pulmonary arteries
and can be life-threatening. Hospital records further indicated the resident was started on medications
including metoprolol, a beta-blocker used to control heart rate and blood pressure; clonidine, an
antihypertensive medication used to reduce blood pressure and heart rate; and Lovenox (enoxaparin), an
anticoagulant medication used to prevent and treat blood clots, for management of these conditions.
Review of the resident 56s care plan revealed no identified problem statements, goals, or interventions
addressing the diagnoses of pulmonary embolisms or tachycardia, including no instructions for monitoring
heart rate or blood pressure, identifying signs and symptoms of complications, medication-related
precautions, or guidance regarding when and whom staff should notify of changes in condition. The care
plan also failed to include interventions related to the resident's increased risk for cardiopulmonary
compromise. The facility's failure to incorporate these significant diagnoses and treatments into the
resident's care plan placed the resident at risk for delayed recognition and treatment of potentially
life-threatening conditions.

Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a
licensed pharmacist.
Based on review of facility documents, review of facility records, review of facility policy and interview with
staff, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that controlled substances are accounted for in
order to identify diversion and lost narcotics in a timely manner for one of thirty-six residents reviewed
(Resident R89). Review of facility policy on Controlled Substance Log dated April 24, 2023Revised:
November 2025 revealed that under section POLICY The facility shall comply with all laws, regulations, and
other requirements related to receiving, handling, storage, disposal, and documentation of Schedule II and
other controlled substances. Under section GUIDELINES: Storage and Maintenance of Controlled Drugs: 1.
Two licensed nursing staff are required to immediately log the received medication into the Controlled
Substances Book Index Page, assign an Inventory Page number, and log or place pharmacy label onto
assigned Inventory Page. One licensed nursing staff will log the required information for each entry and
sign the entry. The second licensed nursing staff will witness the documentation and sign the entry.4. On
first line of Inventory Page, enter: Date drug received; Total quantity received by Center; Signature of both
receiving licensed nursing staff6. If a discrepancy is found after the controlled drug has been accepted:
Notify pharmacy. Give drug to DON or designee for disposition according to federal and state regulations.
NOTE: A controlled drug cannot be returned to the pharmacy once it has been accepted by the Center.
Review of facility reported incident revealed that on November 4, 2025, the facility received narcotics for ten
residents. The RN Supervisor Employee E31 signed for the delivery. He then proceeded to dispense the
narcotics to the appropriate unit, gave his report, and signed off of his shift. Upon, audit of the delivery, it
was determined that Resident R89's Suboxone was signed for, but not in the appropriate cart. The nursing
team initiated an investigation, and interview conducted with Employee E31, and he stated that he reported
signing for Resident R89's medication but didn't see it, and that he may have inadvertently thrown it away
with the pharmacy bags from that delivery, eventhough he signed for it. Interview with DON (Director of
Nursing) Employee E2 conducted on December 18, 2025, at 1:26PM revealed that when pharmacy delivers
the narcotics, the supervisor on duty signs off the narcotics as received. The supervisor then delivers the
narcotics to the respective units. The nurse on duty in the respective units then documents the number of
narcotics received. Further Employee E2 revealed that the nurses on the respective units are only
accountable for the controlled substances they received from the supervisor. Further interview with the
Employee E2 confirmed that there is no process in place that ensures that all controlled substances
received by the supervisor from the pharmacy are accounted for before they are delivered to the unit and
that there is no system in place to identify missing narcotics after the supervisor receives the narcotics from
the pharmacy. 28 Pa. Code 211.5(d) Drug accountability

Based on observation, employee interviews and a review of facility policies, it was determined that the
facility failed to maintain the dish machine in a safe operating condition.Findings include: A review of the
undated facility policy, Chlorine Sanitizer Test Procedure revealed that staff should verify that dish machine
is operating properly and allow it to run one full cycle and if the test strip reveals a chlorine reading below

the initial tour of the kitchen on December 15, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. with Employee E14, Food Service
Director (FSD), which revealed that the dish machine final rinse gage was reading between 140 degrees.
The FSD indicated that the dish machine was a chemical sanitizing low temperature machine. Testing of
chemical sanitizing dish machine with chlorine test strips revealed that no sanitizer was present in the final
rinse confirming that the machine was not sanitizing the dishes that were being run through. After several
attempts to adjust the sanitizer, the FSD could not get the machine to pump the sanitizing chemical into the
rinse water and the machine and could not get a reading on the test strips. Interview with the FSD on
