The facility failed to provide a functional accessible bathroom door and bedroom door to Resident #1.2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #2's room had broken/torn rubber baseboards, holes in the wall, and broken/missing tiles in the shower.3. The facility failed to ensure the entry/exit door to the patio which led to the smoking area functioned properly and there was no gap between the ramp and the threshold.These deficient practices could place any residents at risk of living in an unclean, unsafe, and unsanitary environment and result in feelings of dissatisfaction.The findings included:1. Record review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 11/14/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included cervical disc disorder with myelopathy (condition where a damaged or herniated disk in the neck compresses the spinal cord leading to neurologic symptoms), osteoarthritis of the right hand (chronic joint disease where the cartilage that cushions the ends of bones gradually wears down), lack of coordination, chronic pain syndrome, and need for assistance with personal care.Record review of Resident #1's most recent quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident was cognitively intact for daily decision-making skills.During an interview and observation on 11/12/25 at 12:14 p.m., Resident #1 stated he had lived in his room for approximately 3 to 4 months and had informed the Maintenance Director regarding the bathroom door only opening 1/4 of the way and the bedroom door not shutting properly since residing in the room. Resident #1 stated, although he utilized a wheelchair, the bathroom was not accessible because the door only opened 1/4 of the way and it was difficult when he had visitors. Resident #1 stated the bedroom door did not close properly. Observation of Resident #1's bedroom door revealed the bottom hinge was coming off the frame. Resident #1 stated they did not have a functional bathroom door and bedroom door bothered him because the times he had visitors they could not get into the bathroom to use it and if he wanted privacy, it was difficult because the bedroom door could not be closed properly.2. Record review of Resident #2's document titled admission and Baseline Care Plan/Summary, dated 8/29/25 revealed an admission date of 8/29/25 and reflected the resident was cognitively intact for daily decision-making skills, and required total assistance with mobility.During an observation and interview on 11/12/25 at 2:22 p.m., revealed Resident #2's room had a pipe over the head of the bed, on the wall, which had a missing plate that exposed a hole surrounding the pipe that was approximately 1/4 inches in diameter.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some resident's bed and in the bathroom. Resident #2 stated he had informed the CNA staff about the broken tiles, the hole in the wall, and the missing/torn rubber baseboards about 3 weeks ago. Resident #2 stated he had seen the Maintenance Director, but not in his room. Resident #2 stated the condition of his bedroom made him feel bad because, I'm paying to live here, and they haven't done anything over here on this side of the unit. Resident #2 stated the entry door from the smoking area was dangerous and the door was heavy, and it did not stay open long enough to allow residents in wheelchairs to come inside and the ramp on the threshold was too high and there was a gap between the ramp and the threshold. 3. Record review of Resident #3's face sheet dated 11/14/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included abnormal posture, severe protein-calorie malnutrition, muscle weakness, and need for assistance with personal care.Record review of Resident #3's most recent comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident was moderately cognitively impaired for daily-decision making skills, utilized a wheelchair, and required substantial/maximal assistance with mobility and transfers. During an observation on 11/12/25 at 2:15 p.m., Resident #3 was observed in her wheelchair attempting to enter the building from the door which led to the smoking area and unable to get inside. Resident #3 called for help and was assisted by an unidentified staff back into the building. Observation of the entry/exit door to the patio which led to the smoking area was observed closing rapidly and the mechanism for slowing the door that was supposed to be mounted at the top of the frame was missing. The entry/exit door threshold was observed with a ramp that had a metal plate over it and there was a one-inch crack/gap on the floor between the entrance and exit. During an interview on 11/12/25 at 2:15 p.m., Resident #3 stated she sometimes got stuck on the ledge (ramp) that was on the door. Resident #3 stated there used to be a rubber mat and it would help to slow down her wheelchair when she entered from the patio door. Resident #3 stated she had nearly fallen trying to get back into the building when she used the entryway door that led to the patio. Resident #3 stated the door to the patio entryway had been replaced and the door used to have a mechanism that would help to close the door slowly instead of shutting rapidly.During an observation on 11/14/25 at 8:40 a.m., Resident #3 was observed self-propelling in her wheelchair and attempting to get back into the building from the exit/entryway door that led to the patio. Resident #3 called for help and CNA A assisted the resident back into the building. During an observation and interview on 11/14/25 beginning at 8:42 a.m., CNA A stated Resident #3 could not push herself up and down the ramp. CNA A stated, the door to the exit entryway that led to the patio had been replaced about a month ago because the residents broke the door and the mechanism that helped to slow the door when it was opened or closed was broken and was not safe because for those residents who can't get in quickly can get hurt, especially those residents in wheelchairs. CNA A stated the ramp observed with the metal plate was slippery when there was rain which made it hard for residents in wheelchairs to roll up the ramp. CNA A observed the bathroom door in Resident #1's room and stated it had been that way, only opening 1/4 of the way since she had been employed by the facility 7 years ago. CNA A stated the former Maintenance Director had tried to repair it several times. CNA A stated, since both Resident #1 and his roommate were wheelchair bound, they did not use the bathroom in the room, and visitors weren't supposed to use a resident's bathroom. CNA A stated unless a mobile resident was transferred to Resident #1's room then it could be a problem. CNA A stated she would not like the bathroom door getting stuck because it would delay having to get to the bathroom when I needed to and I could have an accident. CNA A stated she had not made the recent Maintenance Director aware of the bathroom door not opening completely. CNA A observed Resident #2's room and stated the missing/torn rubber baseboards in the room had come off several times and they've tried to fix (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 455597 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 9 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 455597 B.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some it. CNA A stated, the hole around the pipe above the resident's bed had always been like that. CNA A stated the broken tiles in Resident #2's shower was unacceptable. CNA A stated, if I lived in a room like that I would not want to because it's not safe, and it's not healthy.During an observation and interview on 11/14/25 at 9:19 a.m., the Maintenance Director stated he had worked at the facility for over a year. The Maintenance Director stated staff utilized a computer application to report anything that needed to be repaired, and he prioritized the repairs based on importance, such as overflowing toilets, broken light fixtures, broken beds, and broken call lights. The Maintenance Director stated he also made routine rounds and if he saw something that needed to be fixed, or a resident asked him to fix something he would try to do it at that time. The Maintenance Director observed the entryway/exit door to the patio and stated the mechanism used to keep the door from shutting rapidly was not needed and stated the door needed to be adjusted so it did not close rapidly. The Maintenance Director stated the door closing fast would not hurt a resident. The Maintenance Director stated the gap between the ramp and the threshold was a cosmetic thing. The Maintenance Director stated he had the part in his office to fix the door/entryway and got it on Monday; just haven't had time to fix it. During an observation and interview on 11/14/25 at 9:32 a.m., the Maintenance Director observed Resident #1's bedroom and stated the bathroom door only opening 1/4 of the way could hinder the resident from getting to the bathroom. The Maintenance Director stated the broken hinge on the resident's bedroom door prevented the door from being shut completely, which would not allow for privacy. The Maintenance Director stated he would not want to live in Resident #1's room because since the bedroom door didn't close completely, he would not have privacy.During an observation and interview on 11/14/25 at 9:40 a.m., the Maintenance Director observed the broken/torn rubber baseboards, holes in the wall, and broken/missing tiles in the shower in Resident #2's room and stated he knew about the missing shower tiles and had tried to repair them once. The Maintenance Director stated he had the replacement tiles and had known they needed to be replaced for about a week. The Maintenance Director stated he was not aware of Resident #2's broken/torn rubber baseboards because nobody told me. The Maintenance Director stated the hole above the resident's bed with the pipe should be covered for aesthetics and to prevent bugs from coming in. The Maintenance Director stated the items needing repair in Resident #2's room was unacceptable and cosmetically looked ugly. During an observation and interview on 11/14/25 beginning at 9:53 a.m., the Administrator observed Resident #2's room and stated she was not aware of the broken tiles in the shower, or the missing/torn rubber base boards. The Administrator stated the hole above the residents' bed was supposed to have a metal plate covering the hole to keep bugs from getting in. The Administrator stated the Residents in the room used the shower, including Resident #2 and the broken tiles would not injure the resident because staff used a shower chair. The Administrator stated she would not be happy living in this environment, because it had to be maintained and it was a dignity and rights issue. The Administrator observed the entry/exit door to the patio which led to the smoking area and stated she was aware the door had to be replaced approximately a month ago because residents damaged it from hitting the door with their wheelchairs. The Administrator pointed to a sign on the door which read, Caution Open Door Slowly which was placed there so the door did not slam on the residents. The Administrator stated she was not aware of any issues with the gap between the ramp and the threshold but stated it would be replaced with a rubber trim on the floor. The Administrator stated the purpose of the door was to prevent flies and insects from coming into the building. The Administrator observed Resident #1's room and stated, the bathroom door only opening 1/4 of the way and the bedroom door not closing completely because the hinge was not attached properly prevented the resident from having privacy.

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 maintain an infection prevention and control program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable disease and infection for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #4) reviewed for infection control:The facility failed to ensure Resident #4's oxygen mask and tubing were stored properly when not in use.This deficient practice could place residents at-risk for infection due to improper care practices.The findings included:Record review of Resident #4's face sheet dated 11/12/25 revealed a [AGE] year old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included sepsis (medical condition that happens when the body has an extreme, dysregulated response to an infection), hypertension (high blood pressure), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a chronic progressive lung disease that makes it hard to breathe due to airflow obstruction that is not fully reversible).Record review of Resident #4's most recent comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident was moderately cognitively impaired for daily decision-making skills.Record review of Resident #4's Order Summary Report dated 12/12/25 revealed the following:- Ipratropium-Albuterol Inhalation Solution 0.5-2.5 (3) MG/3ML, 3ml inhale orally three times a day for SOB with order date 10/19/25 and no end date.On 11/12/25 at 10:01 a.m., Resident #4 was observed sitting up in bed and a nebulizer machine was on the resident's nightstand on the left of the bed. The nebulizer mask and tube were resting on the nightstand, not properly stored in a bag. Resident #4 stated she had a breathing treatment earlier in the morning but needed another breathing treatment because she had a history of asthma and knew she needed another breathing treatment. Resident #4 took an ampule of Ipratropium-Albuterol Inhalation Solution that was on the nightstand and placed the nebulizer mask on her face to give herself a breathing treatment. During an interview on 11/12/25 at 3:23 p.m., RN B stated Resident #4 received nebulizer breathing treatments and had given the resident the Ipratropium-Albuterol Inhalation Solution and should not have because the resident was not to self-medicate but got busy with a request for narcotics and pain medication for another resident. RN B stated, when the nebulizer mask and tubing were not in use they were supposed to be stored in a bag because spores were everywhere, and it was a break in infection control which could result in the resident getting sick. RN B stated, the nebulizer mask and tubing were changed out every Sunday or as needed.During an observation and interview with the Administrator on 11/13/25 at 8:19 a.m. revealed Resident #4's nebulizer machine on the nightstand to the left of the bed had the nebulizer mask and tubing on the counter and not stored in a bag. The Administrator stated it was her expectation for the nebulizer mask and tubing, when not in use, should be stored in a plastic bag to prevent cross contamination which could result in the resident developing an infection. The Administrator stated, since the nebulizer mask and the tubing were not stored properly, they would have to be discarded.
