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
observations, interviews, and record review the facility failed to ensure resident has a right to a safe, clean,
comfortable and homelike environment for 2 of 5 resident rooms, observed for environment.
In resident rooms #1125 an #1207 tiles around the toilets were loose, missing pieces or otherwise
separated.
This failure could place residents at risk for living in an unsanitary and uncomfortable environment.
Findings included:
In an observation on 07/21/24 at 1:33 PM the bathroom floor in room [ROOM NUMBER] was observed to
have two pieces of tile directly in front of the toilet that had approximately 2-inch by 2-inch pieces missing
exposing the bare concrete below.
In an observation on 07/22/24 at 1:29 PM the bathroom floor in room # 1207 was observed to have 5
pieces of tile bordering the toilet to have ¼ inch gaps between the tiles exposing the concrete below.
One tile directly to the right of the toilet had a large ½ inch crack directly down the middle of the tile
exposing the bare concrete below.
In an interview on 07/22/24 at 2:05 PM the Maintenance Supervisor revealed he knew about the tiles in the
bathrooms and the crew that were fixing them had quit doing business months ago. He stated that the tiles
looked bad and that the gaps and missing pieces could make it hard to sanitize the bathrooms.
In an interview on 07/23/24 at 4:41 PM the DON revealed that a cracked or loose tile in the bathroom could
pose a trip hazard if the tile slipped or if the edge of the tile was raised high enough off the floor.
Review of a facility policy entitled Preventive Maintenance/Work-Order Request, dated 2003 revealed that
1. The facility will repair or replace damaged/broken equipment or building amenities as needed.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident who is incontinent of
bladder receives appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections for 1 (Resident #48)
of 1 residents reviewed for catheter care.
The facility failed to enssure Resident #48's catheter bag was not leaking urine.
This failure affected one of five residents and could place residents with indwelling urinary catheters at risk
of infection.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #48's admission Record, dated 07/22/2024 revealed he was a [AGE] year-old
male originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and most recently admitted [DATE] with a diagnosis of
Obstructive and Reflux Uropathy (obstructed/blocked urinary flow).
Record review of Resident #48's MDS , dated 05/28/2024, revealed a BIMS score of 14 and an active
diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus (a disease of inadequate control of blood glucose levels). His Functional
Status assessment indicated he required two-person assistance for bed mobility, transfer, and toilet use,
and setup help only for meals.
Review of Resident #48's Physician Order written 05/27/2024 read to monitor Foley catheter every shift for
leakage, blockage, sediment buildup, or low output.
Review of Resident #48's Care Plan dated 03/07/2024 noted that Resident#48 had an indwelling catheter
due to Obstructive and Reflux Uropathy (obstructed/blocked urinary flow).
Observation on 07/21/2024 at 4:30 PM noted Resident #48 with an indwelling urinary catheter in a privacy
bag hanging from the bed. The blue cloth privacy bag was partly saturated with urine and the room smelled
of urine. The urine in the tubing was noted as cloudy with white sediment. The inside of the catheter bag
was noted as stained. The bag was wet and could be seen leaking despite the clamp being noted as
closed. The indwelling catheter bag was dated as changed two months ago. The resident could not provide
information about his catheter care.
In an interview on 07/21/20224 at 04:36 PM , CNA N stated she would tell the nurse if she noted a dirty or
leaking Foley catheter so that they can change it.
In a repeat observation of Resident #48 on 07/22/24 at 10:30 AM, the indwelling urinary catheter showed
no changes. The Foley bag was in privacy bag hanging from bed. The blue cloth privacy bag was partly
stained with urine. The urine in the tubing was noted as cloudy with white sediment. The inside of the Foley
bag was noted as stained. The bag was wet and leaking despite the intact clamp, and the Foley bag was
dated as changed two months ago.
In an interview on 07/22/2024 at 10:46 AM, the ADON stated catheters were changed when they were dirty
or leaking, and that if not changed, the risk to the patient is it could cause a UTI or other significant risk.
