Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
Based on review of facility policy, observations, and resident and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to make accessible grievance boxes to residents in three of three locations, 300-lounge, main dining room, and front lobby. Findings include: A review of the facility policy Grievances/Complaints, Filing reviewed 1/16/25, grievances and/or complaints may be submitted orally or in writing and may be filed requirements for grievance boxes in skilled nursing facilities. However, CMS mandates that grievance procedures be accessible to all residents, including those with disabilities, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In Pennsylvania, the Department of Health incorporates by reference the federal requirements outlined in 42 CFR Part 483, Subpart B, which pertains to long-term care facilities. These regulations emphasize the importance of accessibility but do not provide additional specifications regarding grievance box placement. To ensure accessibility, the ADA Standards for Accessible Design recommend that operable parts, such as slots on grievance boxes, be mounted between 15 and 48 inches above the floor. This range accommodates individuals using wheelchairs and ensures usability for a broad range of residents. During a resident group interview, on 11/24/25 at approximately 1:30 p.m., when asked if they felt they could anonymously file a grievance in the grievance boxes, consensus from the group was no. Residents stated, they are too high to reach, they are not made for people in wheelchairs, and you have to ask someone to help you, so we just ask the staff to do it for us. During rounds on 11/26/25, at 8:15 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator and surveyor measured the height of the grievance boxes in the 300-lounge, height was 53 inches, main dining room, height was 52 inches, and front lobby, height was 51 inches. Access to the boxes in both the 300 lounge and front lobby were blocked by a table. During an interview on 11/26/25, at 8:30 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the facility failed to make accessible grievance boxes to residents in three of three locations, 300-lounge, main dining room, and front lobby. 28 PA Code: 201.18(e)(4) Management. 28 PA Code: 201.29(a)(b)(c) Resident rights.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on review of facility policy, clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to assess, document, and notify physicians of decreased Capillary Blood Glucose (CBG) levels for three of seven residents reviewed (Residents R6, R86, and R100).Findings include: The Centers for Disease Control define diabetes as: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into sugar (also called glucose) and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body's cells for use as energy. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease. Hypoglycemia is a condition that occurs when blood glucose is lower than normal, usually below 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). If left untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to weakness, confusion, unconsciousness, arrhythmias and even death. People with Diabetes Mellitus may be prescribed injectable insulin to assist in maintaining acceptable levels of CBG's. Hyperglycemia, or high blood glucose, occurs when there is too much sugar in the blood. This happens when your body has too little insulin. Hyperglycemia is blood glucose greater than 125 mg/dL while fasting (not eating for at least eight hours, or a blood glucose greater than 180 mg/dL one to two hours after eating. If you have hyperglycemia and it ' s untreated for long periods of time, you can damage your nerves, blood vessels, tissues and organs. Damage to blood vessels can increase your risk of heart attack and stroke, and nerve damage may also lead to eye damage, kidney damage and non-healing wounds. Review of the facility policy Management of Hypoglycemia reviewed 1/16/25, indicated the facility provided guidelines for managing hypoglycemia secondary to insulin therapy, or oral hypoglycemic agents. The facility classification/implement protocol of hypoglycemia is as follows:- Level 1: Blood glucose is less than 70mg/dl but greater than 54 mg/dl. Protocol: give oral form of glucose, notify provider immediately, remain with resident, recheck blood glucose in 15 minutes, provide resident meal or snack.- Level 2: Blood glucose is less than 54 mg/dl. Protocol: administer glucagon (rapid form of glucose), notify provider immediately, remain with the resident, place resident in a comfortable and safe place, monitor vital signs, and recheck blood glucose in 15 minutes.Level 3: Altered mental and/or physical status requiring assistance for treatment of hypoglycemia. Protocol: call 911, administer glucagon or intravenous (IV) 50% glucose, if IV access. Review of the facility policy Change in Resident's Condition or Status reviewed 1/16/25, indicated the nurse will notify the resident's attending physician or physician on call when there has been a need to alter the resident's medical treatment significantly. A significant change of condition is a major decline or improvement in the resident's status that will not normally resolve itself without intervention by staff or by implementing standard disease-related clinical interventions. Prior to notifying the physician or healthcare provider, the nurse will make detailed observations and gather relevant and pertinent information for the provider. The nurse will record in the resident's medical record information relative to changes in the resident's medical/mental condition or status. Review of the clinical record revealed Resident R6 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included congestive heart failure (progressive heart disease that affects pumping action of the heart muscles), diabetes, and high blood pressure. Review of Resident R6 physician's order revealed the following orders:- On 10/3/25, Hypoglycemic protocol - for blood sugar less than 80 if
