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
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident had the right to a safe,
clean, comfortable, and homelike environment, which included but not limited to receiving treatment and
supports for daily living safely for one (Resident #1) of five residents reviewed for residents rights.
1.The facility failed to maintain a resident's wheelchair in a sanitary and safe operating condition for
Resident #1 who had dried vomit on her wheelchair.
2. The facility failed to maintain a homelike environment for Resident #1 who had a large portion of wood
missing from her headboard.
These failures could place residents at risk for a diminished quality of life due to the lack of a well-kept,
home-like environment.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 12/19/23, reflected she was a [AGE] year-old female who
originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included unspecified
intellectual disabilities (learning disabilities characterized by below average intelligence) and major
depressive disorder (mental health disorder having episodes of psychological depression).
Review of Resident #1's annual MDS assessment, dated 10/29/23, reflected she had a BIMS score of 08
indicating moderate cognitive impairment. Further review revealed Resident #1 utilized a wheelchair.
Observation and interview on 12/19/23 at 9:30 AM with Resident #1 revealed she was sitting in her
wheelchair in her room. Resident #1 had a dried brown substance on the right side of her wheelchair that
was clumped up. Resident #1 said she threw up the other day but could not remember when it happened.
Resident #1 said she knew the throw up was still on her wheelchair and did not like it being on there and
wanted to have a clean wheelchair. Resident #1's headboard was also missing a large portion of it on the
right side. Resident #1 said her headboard had been like that since she got to the facility and she did not
like the way it looked since it was broken.
Interview on 12/19/23 at 9:45 AM with LVN A revealed she was Resident #1's nurse. LVN A said she had
not noticed Resident #1's wheelchair which had a brown and clumpy substance going down the right side
of it. LVN A said Resident #1 told her it looked like vomit and she agreed it could have been that. LVN A
said she was not sure how long the substance had been there but should have been cleaned

for hygiene purposes. LVN A said she also had not noticed Resident #1's headboard was missing a large
portion of wood from it but that it should have been in good repair for her. LVN A said anybody who cared
for Resident #1 was responsible for fixing these items for her. LVN A said there was a maintenance log at
the nurse's station where staff can add maintenance requests, like the broken headboard for the
Maintenance Director to fix. LVN A said anyone who saw the dried substance on Resident #1's wheelchair
could have cleaned it up for her.
Interview on 12/19/23 at 11:00 AM with the Maintenance Director revealed he was told earlier this morning
that Resident #1's headboard needed to be replaced because there was a large portion of the wood
missing. The Maintenance Director said he looked in the maintenance log and did not see an entry for
Resident #1's headboard. The Maintenance Director said when staff notice things need to be repaired they
were supposed to log it in the maintenance book. The Maintenance Director said once a month he went to
each resident's room to inspect it and the last time he did that was in the middle of November. The
Maintenance Director said he did not see Resident #1's headboard needed repair or he would have
completed that quickly. The Maintenance Director said he was responsible for replacing broken things in the
facility, such as a broken headboard. The Maintenance Director said the concern with Resident #1's broken
headboard was that it could be a hazard to her if she got tangled in it and hurt herself.
Interview on 12/19/23 at 11:40 AM with CNA B revealed she was Resident #1's CNA for the day. CNA B
said she had not noticed that Resident #1's headboard had a portion of the wood missing from it. CNA B
said she knew to report any maintenance concerns and log them in the maintenance book. CNA B said she
never noticed Resident #1 had a dried clumpy brown substance on her wheelchair. CNA B said she
assumed it was throw up from the resident because that was what usually happened sometimes when
Resident #1 ate or drank something. CNA B said she was responsible for cleaning resident's wheelchairs
when they became dirty.
Interview on 12/19/23 at 11:57 AM with the Administrator revealed she was not aware about Resident #1's
headboard until LVN A brought it to her attention this morning (12/19/23). The Administrator said there was
not an entry for it in the maintenance log which was checked daily. The Administrator said residents should
not have missing portions from their headboards. The Administrator said the concern with Resident #1
having a missing portion from the headboard was that it was a hazard to her if she got caught on it, she
could hurt herself. The Administrator said all staff had access to the maintenance log and should have
entered the information on the log so the Maintenance Director could repair it. The Administrator said the
maintenance logs were checked daily by her and the Maintenance Director. The Administrator said she was
not aware that Resident #1 had a dried brown clumpy substance on her wheelchair. The Administrator said
that substance should not have been there and any staff in the building were responsible for cleaning it up.
The Administrator said the facility just implemented a monthly schedule for wheelchairs to be cleaned on
the 10 PM to 6 AM shift . The Administrator said the concern with the substance was that it was an infection
control issue. The Administrator said the facility did not have a policy regarding residents having a homelike
environment, but that was the goal.
In an interview on 12/19/23 at 12:38 PM with the Administrator revealed the facility did not have a policy
addressing wheelchairs being cleaned.
Review of the maintenance log for the last three months did not reveal any entry about Resident #1's
headboard needing to be replaced.
