This survey cited 6 deficiencies, 3 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0583 Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure personal privacy for 1 of 8 residents (Resident #5) observed for foley catheters in that: Resident #5 was observed in bed with her foley bag attached to the side of the bed without a privacy cover, exposing her foley bag contents to the open bedroom door. This deficient practice could affect residents who have foley catheter bags and could result in loss of dignity and low self-esteem. The findings were: Record review of Resident #5's undated face sheet revealed Resident #5 was a [AGE] year-old female who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included diabetes mellitus type 2 (high blood sugar levels), cerebral infarction (stroke) and hydronephrosis with renal and ureteral calculous obstruction (swelling of one or both kidneys causing a blockage or obstruction). Record review of Resident #5's MDS assessment, dated 08/12/2025, reflected Resident #5 had a BIMS score of 04, indicating severe cognitive impairment. Section GG- Functional Abilities revealed Resident #5 was dependent on staff for bed mobility, transfers, hygiene, toileting hygiene and bathing. Section H - Bladder and Bowel revealed Resident #5 had an indwelling catheter and was incontinent of bowel and bladder. Record review of Resident #5's comprehensive care plan revealed a care plan, dated 09/11/2025, that read, [Resident] has indwelling foley catheter. Record review of Resident #5's October 2025 administration orders revealed an order, Ensure foley bag is in privacy bag while in bed or wheelchair every shift for foley care. During an observation, 10/01/2025 at 1:17 p.m., Resident #5 was observed lying in bed with a foley catheter bag attached to the side of the bed, facing the open door. The foley catheter bag did not have a privacy cover and the content of the bag was exposed. During an interview with Resident #5, 10/01/2025 at 1:18 p.m., Resident #5 stated staff would often place the foley catheter bag on the opposite side of the bed for privacy and Resident #5 stated she was not bothered if people can see her bag. During an interview with LVN D, 10/02/2025 at 10:07 a.m., LVN D stated she was assigned to Resident #5 on 10/01/2025 and LVN D stated she observed Resident #5 without a foley privacy bag before lunch time. LVN D stated she looked for a privacy bag and could not locate one, so she notified the interim DON. LVN D stated the nurses were responsible for ensuring privacy bags were covering foley catheter bags and stated she had received training on privacy covers. LVN D stated it was important for privacy covers to be in place for the residents' privacy. During an interview with the Administrator, 10/03/2025 at 1:36 p.m., the Administrator stated all foley catheter bags should have a privacy cover and some of the foley catheter bags have a shaded side so the bag can be turned to expose the shaded side for privacy. The Administrator stated nursing staff and anyone that identified a resident without a foley bag privacy cover would notify the charge nurse or nursing management and said facility staff had received training on privacy covers. The Administrator stated that privacy covers were important to provide dignity and respect for the rights of each resident. The Administrator stated the facility did not have a policy on privacy covers for foley bags and stated the facility follows the resident rights policy.

These failures could place residents at risk for neglect, worsening of existing wounds or the development of new pressure ulcers. The findings were: Record review of Resident #1's, undated, face sheet revealed Resident #1 was a [AGE] year old male who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included malignant neoplasm of unspecified part of unspecified bronchus of lung (cancer of the lung or respiratory airway), quadriplegia (paralysis of a person's limbs), kidney disease (damage to kidney function), viral hepatitis c (a liver disease), cirrhosis of liver (scarring and damage to the liver) and encephalopathy (condition that caused brain dysfunction).

The Wound Care Physician stated Resident #1 should have had daily wound care treatments and stated Resident #1's wound had declined prior to Resident #1 going to the hospital on [DATE]. The Wound Care Physician stated leaving a wound dressing in place too long for Resident #1 could lead to infection for someone like him who had multiple other comorbidities and is vascular compromised and that can lead to wound deterioration and risk of infection. The Wound Care Physician stated a lack of daily wound care could have contributed to Resident #1 being admitted to the hospital with sepsis, osteomyelitis, and an amputation.

During an interview with the Administrator, 10/03/2025 at 2:42 p.m., the Administrator stated resident skin assessment should be completed by the nursing staff on admission, readmission and weekly.

During an interview with the Nurse Practitioner, 10/03/2025 at 10:42 a.m., the Nurse Practitioner stated when a resident returns from the hospital with wounds and no wound care orders, the nursing staff should have reassessed and measured the wounds, and a nurse should have called to get wound care orders. The Nurse Practitioner stated Resident #1 should have had wound care treatments completed daily and stated the lack of wound care treatments daily could have led to a catastrophic event. With such a complicated medical history, yes, it is very possible for lack of wound care to have led to that and worse. The Nurse Practitioner stated the facility wound care had room for improvement. During an interview with the Wound Care Physician, 10/03/2025 at 12:11 p.m., the Wound Care Physician stated that any changes in treatment orders were documented in her progress notes and uploaded into a resident's EMR and stated she did not have access to view resident orders. The Wound Care Physician stated it was up to the facility as to who was responsible for adding the Wound Care Physician orders into a resident's administrative orders and stated in most facilities it was completed by the Wound Care Nurse or the ADON. The Wound Care Physician stated she had concerns about the wound care performed for Resident #1 because he would have wound dressings that were not dated and there was no way for the Wound Care Physician to know when the treatment was completed. The Wound Care Physician stated Resident #1 should have had daily wound care treatments and stated Resident #1's wound had declined prior to Resident #1 going to the hospital on [DATE]. The Wound Care Physician stated leaving a wound dressing in place too long for Resident #1 could lead to infection for someone like him who had multiple other comorbidities and is vascular compromised and that can lead to wound deterioration and risk of infection. The Wound Care Physician stated a lack of daily wound care could have contributed to Resident #1 being admitted to the hospital with sepsis, osteomyelitis, and an amputation. The Wound Care Physician stated she would do a wound dressing for Resident #1 when she assessed him but stated she would only see him weekly. During an interview with the Administrator, 10/03/2025 at 2:42 p.m., the Administrator stated the ADON/LVN was still responsible for doing wound care treatments 3 days out of the week and overseeing the wound care responsibilities after she transitioned to the ADON/LVN position. The Administrator stated it should have been communicated to the Wound Care Physician that Resident #1 did not have wound care orders to provide wound care and stated a resident who had a wound and no wound care orders could lead to an amputation of an extremity and cause infections and sepsis. Record review of facility wound treatment management policy, revised 05/05/2025, revealed in the absence of treatment orders, the licensed nurse will notify physician to obtain treatment orders. This may be the treatment nurse or the assigned licensed nurse in the absence of the treatment nurse and treatments will be documented on the Treatment Administration Record. The effectiveness of treatments will be monitored through ongoing assessment of the wound.
