What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 3 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission that includes the instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care for 1 of 6 residents (Resident #87) reviewed for care plans. The facility failed to ensure that Resident #87 had a completed baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission. This failure could place residents at an increased risk of decline in physical or functional well-being, of not receiving necessary care or services, and of having personalized plans developed/implemented to address their needs. The findings included: A record review of an undated face sheet indicated Resident #87 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE]. She had diagnoses of encephalopathy (a group of conditions that cause brain dysfunction, leading to altered mental states and various neurological symptoms), hypothyroidism (a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones), hyperlipidemia (a condition of high cholesterol or fats in the blood), depression, Parkinsonism (a brain condition that causes slowed movements, rigidity, and tremors), and acute kidney failure. A record review on 02/17/2026 at 11:31 AM of Resident #87's baseline care plan indicated an undated, incomplete, and unsigned care plan. Completed information on Resident #87's baseline care plan included her identification information, modes of communication, vision and hearing, daily preferences, and advance directive. Resident #87's care plan did not include initial goals based on admission orders, physician orders, dietary orders, therapy services, social services, or any PASARR recommendations. During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 10:33 AM, the ADON confirmed baseline care plans were to be completed within 48 hours. The ADON indicated that usually the DON or MDS coordinator initiates the baseline care plan and the admitting nurse inputs the information required. The ADON indicated that she was unsure if Resident #87 had a completed baseline care plan. During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 10:41 AM, the MDS coordinator indicated that a registered nurse initiates the baseline care plan and the DON would ensure that it was completed and sign it. The MDS coordinator stated that she initiated Resident #87's baseline care plan and that typically the interdisciplinary team would complete it, then the DON would sign it as completed. The MDS coordinator denied that there was any one person that was ultimately responsible for ensuring that the baseline care plan was completed. The MDS coordinator indicated that the baseline care plan provides staff with an overall idea of what a resident's goals and outcomes could be, but denied that completing the baseline care plan would affect their overall health and well-being. During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 2:30 PM, the ADM indicated that the DON usually completes resident's baseline care plans. The ADM indicated that in the case of Resident #87, there was no DON on staff at the time of her admission. The ADM indicated that each member of the interdisciplinary team was responsible for completing their assigned sections of the baseline care plan. The ADM indicated that the MDS coordinator should have signed off on Resident #87's baseline care plan and ensured that it was completed. The ADM indicated that the risk to (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

The facility failed to ensure Resident #53's physician's orders included an order for oxygen use. The facility failed to ensure Resident #59's physician's orders included an order for a foley catheter. The facility failed to ensure resident #73's physician's orders included orders for diet and dialysis treatments. These failures could place residents at risk for errors in care and treatment. Findings included: 1.Record review of a face sheet dated 02/18/2026 indicated Resident #53 was a [AGE] year-old male who admitted to the facility on [DATE]. He had diagnoses which included tracheostomy status (opening in the neck into the windpipe to facilitate breathing, traumatic hemorrhage of the cerebrum (the rupture of blood vessels within the brain due to head trauma), heart failure, post cardiac arrest, and gastrostomy status (tube inserted through an opening in the abdomen into the stomach for provision of liquid nutrition). Record review of a 5-day MDS assessment dated [DATE] noted Resident #53 had a BIMS score of 3, indicating his cognition was severely compromised. Further review of the MDS indicated Resident #53 had a tracheostomy and was receiving continuous oxygen. Record review of Resident #53's physician's orders dated 02/17/2026 indicated he did not have an order for oxygen therapy. During observations made on 02/16/2026 at 10:32 AM, on 02/17/2026 at 09:50 AM, and on 02/18/2026 at 10:00 AM, Resident #53 was noted receiving oxygen AT 3.5 LPM via a mask placed over his tracheostomy.
