**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable
homelike environment for 2 of 20 resident's (Resident #7 and Resident #37) reviewed for a homelike
environment.1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #7's wall was free from peeling paint at the head of her
bed with approximately 4 different areas measuring approximately 1-2 inches wide and 2-3 inches long.2.
The facility failed to ensure Resident #7's wall was free from peeling paint by her pillow that measured
approximately 6-8 inches at the widest point and a foot long at the longest point.3. The facility failed to
ensure Resident #7's air condition/heat unit was free from peeling paint and/or caulk around the unit
leaving approximately half inch gaps around the top of the unit.4. The facility failed to ensure Resident #37's
wall was free from peeling paint at the midway area of his bed that measured approximately 10 inches at
the widest point and a foot long at the longest point.These failures could place residents at risk for an
uncomfortable, unhomelike environment, and a diminished quality of life.Findings included:1. Record review
of Resident #7's face sheet dated 6/30/25 indicated she was [AGE] years old and admitted to the facility on
[DATE]. Resident #7 had diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a group of lung
diseases that block airflow and make it difficult to breathe), diabetes (high blood sugar), and hypertension
(high blood pressure).Record review of Resident #7's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], indicated
she had a BIMS score of 13, which indicated she was cognitively intact. Resident #7 used a walker for
mobility. Resident #7 was independent to needed supervision for most ADLs.During an observation and
interview on 6/30/25 at 11:36 AM, Resident #7 was sitting in her chair in her room. Resident #7 said she
wanted her room painted because the paint was peeling off the wall, and she did not like it, and it looked
bad. There was peeling paint at the head of her bed with approximately 4 different areas measuring
approximately 1-2 inches wide and 2-3 inches long and peeling paint by her pillow that measured
approximately 6-8 inches at the widest point and a foot long at the longest point. There was peeling paint
and/or caulk around the air condition/heating unit leaving approximately half inch gaps around the top of the
unit.2. Record review of Resident #37's face sheet dated 6/30/25 indicated he was [AGE] years old and
admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #37 had diagnoses which included chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD- a group of lung diseases that block airflow and make it difficult to breathe),
senile degeneration of the brain (decline in cognitive function associated with aging), lack of coordination,
and nicotine dependence.Record review of Resident #37's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE],
indicated he had a BIMS score of 9, which indicated he had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS
indicated Resident #37 had continuous inattention. The MDS indicated Resident #37 was independent or
needed set-up/clean-up assistance for most ADLs.During an observation and interview on 6/30/25 at 12:01
PM, Resident #37 had peeling paint on the wall beside his bed, about midway down his bed, that measured
approximately 10

he had lived in worse.During an observation on 7/02/25 at 9:35 AM, Resident #37 was lying in bed asleep.
Resident #37's room continued to have peeling paint beside his bed that measured approximately 10
inches at the widest point and a foot long at the longest point. During an interview on 7/02/25 at 9:51 AM,
RCP A said Resident #7 had not said anything to her about not liking the peeling paint on her wall. RCP A
said she would report any issues with repairs to the nurse or the maintenance man. RCP A said the nurse
put needed repairs in the maintenance logbook. RCP A said the maintenance man was responsible for
ensuring the rooms were in good repair. RCP A said peeling paint in the residents' rooms was not
homelike. RCP A said she would not want her walls like that. RCP A said peeling paint in her room would
not make her feel good and would bother her. RCP A said peeling paint on the resident's wall would bother
the resident also.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 9:58 AM, RCP F said he had worked at the facility for
about 2 years. RCP F said he would report any resident reports of needed repairs to the maintenance man
and put it in the maintenance logbook. RCP F said the maintenance man was responsible for repairing and
maintaining the residents' rooms. RCP F said peeling paint in a resident's room was not homelike and he
would not want peeling paint in his house. RCP F said it would not make him feel good to have peeling
paint and would make the resident not feel good and not happy. RCP F said it was important to provide a
homelike environment to make sure the resident was happy, and the facility was their home.During an
interview on 7/02/25 at 10:16 AM, RN B said peeling paint in a resident's room would not be homelike. RN
B said she would not like to have peeling paint in her home. RN B said having peeling paint in their room
probably would make the resident feel like they were nothing and nobody cared about them. RN B said the
facility should provide a homelike environment so the resident felt comfortable since they had to leave their
homes and it had to do with their total wellbeing, if they are not happy, they could not heal. RN B said she
would place any needed repairs in the maintenance logbook and the maintenance reviewed it for any
needed repairs.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 10:55 AM, the Director of Plant Operations said he was
over the maintenance department and had worked at the facility for about one and half years. The Director
of Plant Operations said the staff wrote in the logbook at the nurses' station, he reviewed and if he noticed
something that needed addressed as he walked by, he would fix it. The Director of Plant Operations said he
walked the halls and pretty much glanced in every room every day. The Director of Plant Operations said
there was several rooms with peeling paint in the building, but he was only one person and he had to
prioritize what needed to be fixed first. The Director of Plant Operations said the residents did not like
peeling paint and it was not comfortable for the resident. The Director of Plant Operations said he felt the
aides ran the beds up and down the walls and it made it hard to keep the walls looking nice. The Director of
Plant Operations said he would not want to have peeling paint in his home. The Director of Plant Operations
said the residents should feel safe, be comfortable, and have a homelike environment. During an interview
on 7/02/25 at 11:52 AM, the ADCO said there was a maintenance book where they logged issues or
needed repairs at the nurses' station and the maintenance man took care of it. The ADCO said he could not
say how peeling paint in the resident's room affected the resident, but he was sure no one would prefer
that. The ADCO said he would not want peeling paint in his home. The ADCO said it would be bothersome
to the resident, but he had not had anyone report to him having an issue with peeling paint in the rooms.
The ADCO said it was important to provide a homelike environment for the residents to have a good quality
of life because when they entered into the nursing home it was toward the end of their life. During an
interview 7/02/25 at 2:14 PM, the DCO said they had been doing repairs a little as they went and painting a

room had to be approved because the building was old. The DCO said they had a maintenance logbook at
the nurses' station for staff to log any needed repairs and then the maintenance man addressed them. The
DCO said peeling paint in a resident's room was not homelike. The DCO said sometimes staff cause the
peeling paint by accident due to the beds being against the wall. The DCO said she had not had any
residents express concerns with the paint situation. The DCO said the resident's room was their home and
they would not want chipped or peeling paint. The DCO said she would not want peeling paint in her home
if she had the means to replace it. During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:39 PM, the EDO said any staff could
report an issue or a needed repair and they had partners assigned to each room who do check offs weekly
and should report any needed repairs for the rooms. The EDO said the building was older and had a lot that
needed to be done. The EDO said they just repainted the men's memory unit. The EDO said a work order
would need to be created for any repairs. The EDO said repair of peeling paint was an easy fix and would
need to be repaired quickly to contribute to a more home like environment for the residents. The EDO said it
was important to promote a home-like environment because it was their home, you want them to be
comfortable, and for their psychosocial needs. Record review of the Maintenance Logbook, dated
4/01/2024 through 7/02/2025, did not indicate any wall/paint repairs were needed for Resident #7's (room
[ROOM NUMBER]) or Resident #37's (room [ROOM NUMBER]) rooms.Record review of the facility's
undated policy titled Homelike Environment indicated . Residents' rooms: Ensure all resident rooms meet
federal standards for space, privacy, and comfort . Housekeeping and Maintenance: implement regular
cleaning and maintenance schedules to ensure a sanitary and orderly environment . involve residents in
decisions about their care plans and living environment to align with their preferences and needs .

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that respiratory care was provided
consistent with professional standards of practice for 2 of 9 residents reviewed for respiratory care.
(Resident #7 and Resident #26)1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #7's oxygen concentrator (takes air
from the surroundings, extracts oxygen and filters it into purified oxygen for resident to breathe) air intake
area (mouth of the oxygen concentrator bringing in the air that will be processed) was not covered in gray
fuzzy dust-like and hair-like particles.2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #7 had an order and care plan
for oxygen therapy.3. The facility failed to ensure Resident #26's oxygen concentrator air intake area was
not covered in gray fuzzy dust-like and hair-like particles.These failures could place residents at risk of
respiratory complications or respiratory infection. Findings included:1. Record review of Resident #7's face
sheet dated 6/30/25 indicated she was [AGE] years old and admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #7
had diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a group of lung diseases that block
airflow and make it difficult to breathe), diabetes (high blood sugar), and hypertension (high blood
pressure).Record review of Resident #7's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], indicated she had a
BIMS score of 13, which indicated she was cognitively intact. The MDS did not indicate Resident #7 was
receiving oxygen therapy.Record review of Resident #7's undated Care Plan Report indicated she had
potential for ineffective airway clearance, anxiety, and disturbed sleeping pattern related to chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease. The care plan report did not indicate Resident #7 was receiving oxygen
therapy.Record review of Resident #7's Order Summary Report dated 6/30/25 did not reflect an order for
oxygen therapy.Record review of Resident #7's Medication Administration and Treatment Administration
Records dated 6/01/25-6/30/25 did not indicate administration of oxygen therapy.During an observation and
interview on 6/30/25 at 11:36 AM, Resident #7 was sitting in her chair in her room, and she reached over
and put the oxygen tubing in her nose and over her ears. Resident #7 said she used her oxygen as needed
for shortness of breath. Resident #7's oxygen was set on 2 LPM and the tubing was dated 6/30/25.
Resident #7's oxygen concentrator's air intake area was covered in gray fuzzy dust and hair-like particles.
Resident #7 said she did not know how often the facility cleaned the oxygen concentrator.During an
observation on 7/01/25 at 1:45 PM, Resident #7's oxygen concentrator continued to have gray fuzzy dust
and hair-like particles covering the air intake area.2. Record review of Resident #26's face sheet dated
6/30/25 indicated he was [AGE] years old and admitted to the facility on initially on 6/19/19 and re-admitted
on [DATE]. Resident #26 had diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and
hypertensive (high blood pressure) heart disease with heart failure.Record review of Resident #26's
quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], indicated he had a BIMS score of 12, which indicated he had
moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS indicated Resident #26 was receiving oxygen therapy.Record
review of Resident #26's undated Care Plan Report indicated he had ineffective breathing pattern related to
COPD and emphysema. Interventions included administer medications as ordered and may utilize oxygen
as needed per physician orders. Resident #26 also had potential for problems related to COPD: problem
with ineffective airway clearance related to excessive and tenacious secretions, problem with anxiety
related to breathlessness and fear of suffocation, problem with disturbed sleep pattern related to cough or
inability to assume recumbent position (lay flat) and used routine oxygen related to shortness of breath with
exertion, upon rest and when lying flat. Interventions included administer oxygen per physician orders and

reflected an order to clean/change oxygen concentrator filters every night shift on Sundays and an order for
oxygen at 2-3 LPM by nasal cannula PRN shortness of breath with a start date of 4/14/22. Record review of
Resident #26's Licensed Nurse Medication Administration Record dated 6/01/25-6/30/25 indicated there
was an order to clean/change oxygen concentrator filters every night shift on Sundays and indicated RN D
had completed the task on 6/29/25. Record review of Resident #26's Medication Administration Record
dated 6/01/25-6/30/25 indicated he could have oxygen 2-3 LPM PRN shortness of breath and to document
if oxygen was in use. The Medication Administration Record indicated he used oxygen daily
6/01/25-6/30/25.During an observation on 6/30/25 at 10:33 AM, Resident #26 self-propelled himself into
room. Resident #26 was wearing oxygen by a nasal cannula in his nose attached to an oxygen tank hung
on the back of his wheelchair. Resident #26 had an oxygen concentrator in his room with oxygen running at
3 LPM with oxygen tubing dated 6/30/25. Resident #26's oxygen concentrator's air intake area was covered
in thick gray, fuzzy dust and hair-like particles. Resident #26 said the staff changed the oxygen tubing
weekly, but he did not know if they cleaned the oxygen concentrator air intake area. Resident #26 said the
oxygen concentrator air intake area looked really dirty.During an observation on 7/01/25 at 1:55 PM,
Resident #26's oxygen concentrator continued to have gray fuzzy dust and hair-like particles covering the
air intake area.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 10:16 AM, RN B said she was the nurse on the back
hallway and did not have Resident #7 or Resident #26 on her hall. RN B said the nursing staff were
responsible for cleaning and changing filters and the oxygen machines. RN B said she checked all her
concentrators during her shift to make sure the filters were clean, and she would pop off the back of the
oxygen concentrator to clean vents (air intake area). RN B said if the oxygen concentrator filters and vents
were not cleaned, they could hold bacteria, and it could get in the resident's lungs. RN B said dirty filters or
vents (air intake area) could cause the resident to develop an upper respiratory infection and could even
possibly kill the resident if it got bad enough. RN B said if a resident had oxygen in their room and using it,
there should be an order for it, it should be care planned, and included on the MDS if it's in the look back
timeframe. RN B said the care plan let everyone know what the resident needed to care for them and how
to take care of them, what to monitor for, and what medications they were on. RN B said sometimes they
have standing orders in their book to use when needed, but she looked in the standing orders and did not
see any for oxygen, so anytime a resident needed oxygen they would need to get an order from the
physician.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 10:55 AM, the Director of Plant Operations said he had worked
at the facility for approximately one and a half years. He said he was told the nurses were responsible for
cleaning/changing the oxygen filters. He said if he was supposed to clean the internal air intake areas of the
oxygen concentrator, he had not been told and did not know who would be responsible for cleaning them.
He said the oxygen concentrator air intake areas should be clean, because it would be an infection control
issue and could cause the resident an infection.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 11:34 AM, RN C said she
had worked at the facility for less than a week. RN C said she was the nurse assigned to Resident #7 and
Resident #26. RN C said the nurses were responsible for cleaning the oxygen concentrator machines and
filters. RN C said it was important to keep them clean because the resident could breathe in bacteria from a
dirty filter and the resident could get an infection. RN C said she had not checked the oxygen concentrators
that day, but she would during her shift. RN C said she had not had to clean the air intake area of the
oxygen concentrator yet. RN C said if the resident was using oxygen, they should have an order for oxygen,
and it should be care planned. RN C said oxygen was a medication and must have an order and it should
be care planned so staff know what to do to care for the resident. RN C said today (7/02/25) was her first

day on that hall. RN C reviewed Resident #7's chart and said she did not have an order for oxygen, and it
was not care planned.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 11:52 AM, the ADCO said the 10 PM -6 AM nurses
on Sundays were responsible for changing out the oxygen filters, tubing, and cleaning the air intake areas
of the oxygen concentrators. The ADCO said it was important to keep the oxygen concentrator filters and
air intake areas clean because they did not want any microorganisms to be inhaled that could produce
infections. The ADCO said the resident was at risk for infection if the oxygen concentrator filters and air
intake areas were not kept clean. The ADCO said there should be an order for oxygen and should be care
planned if the resident was utilizing oxygen. The ADCO said they have standing orders for like 2 LPM by
nasal cannula PRN for all the residents, but if the resident was using oxygen routinely, then it should be
added to the resident's orders. The ADCO said the care plan was to allow for the continuity of care and the
care to be individualized for the resident. The ADCO said Resident #7 used the oxygen PRN. The ADCO
observed the picture of Resident #26's air intake and said, that's not good. The ADCO said he believed
Resident #7 had been using the oxygen PRN since her admission [DATE]) and should have had an order
and been care planned.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 12:33 PM, RN D said she worked the night shift
on 6/29/25. RN D said the night shift nurses on Sundays were responsible for cleaning the oxygen filters,
oxygen concentrators, changing out the oxygen tubing and nebulizers. RN D said on the machines without
the filters, she just cleaned the outside of the machine. RN D said she did not know who was responsible
for cleaning the air intake areas of the concentrator. RN D said if the filter or air intake area was dirty, the
resident could breathe dirty air and the resident could possibly have a low oxygen level, upper respiratory
infection, and bacteria could go into their lungs.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:14 PM, the DCO said
the oxygen concentrators were to be done weekly on the night shift nurse on Sundays. The DCO said the
same person would be responsible for cleaning the air intake area of the oxygen concentrators. The DCO
said dirty filters and air intakes, could cause respiratory issues such as pneumonia and respiratory
infections. The DCO said a resident who utilized oxygen should have an order for it and it should be care
planned. The DCO said there should be an order for oxygen to ensure the MD was aware if the resident
required oxygen, was having shortness of breath, and to identify if the resident was having other issues,
and the care plan was so everyone could follow the same plan of care for the resident. The DCO observed
the picture of Resident #26's oxygen air intake area and said the air intake area was absolutely not
acceptable. The DCO said Resident #7 had been utilizing oxygen since her admission and there should
have been an order for it, and it should have been care planned.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:39 PM,
the EDO said the nursing staff should be checking the oxygen concentrators and cleaning out the air intake
weekly. The EDO said the maintenance man should also be checking the oxygen concentrator machines
when they were changing out a machine. The EDO said a dirty filter or dirty air intake area could cause the
resident a respiratory illness or infection, and it could affect the functioning of the machine. The EDO said
she would expect the machines to be kept clean. The EDO said the resident should have an order for
oxygen and it should be care planned. The EDO said if the resident was needing oxygen, they needed to
document the use of oxygen and whether it was affective. Review of the facility's policy titled Oxygen
Therapy dated 04/2021 indicated . policy of this community to ensure all oxygen administration was
conducted in a safe manner . verify there was an order for oxygen administration to include . method of
delivery, flow rate, oxygen saturation parameters if indicated . start oxygen flow of rate as ordered .

Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure nurse aides were able to demonstrate
competency in skills and necessary techniques to care for resident's needs, as identified through resident
assessments and described in the plan of care for 1 of 2 RCPs (RCP E) reviewed for nurse aide
competencies. The facility failed to ensure RCP E was competent in performing a safe mechanical lift
(machine used to lift and transfer a resident from one surface to another, such as from chair to bed/bed to
chair) transfer on Resident #2 when RCP E did not place the legs of the mechanical lift in the wide position
when lowering or transferring the resident and did not lock the lift wheels while lifting or lowering the
resident.This failure could place residents at an increased and unnecessary risk of injury.Findings
included:Record review of Resident #2's face sheet dated 7/02/25 indicated she was [AGE] years old and
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted [DATE]. Resident #2 had diagnoses which included
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a group of lung diseases that block airflow and make it difficult to
breathe), diabetes (high blood sugar), hypertension (high blood pressure), weakness, blindness in one eye
and low vision in the other.Record review of Resident #2's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE],
indicated she had a BIMS score of 13, which indicated she was cognitively intact. The MDS indicated
Resident #2 was dependent to needed substantial assistance in most ADLs.Record review of Resident #2's
undated Care Plan Report indicated she was at risk for falls related to poor vision, inability to bear weight,
weakness, and decreased sense of safety. Resident #2 had an ADL self-care performance deficit related to
weakness, inability to bear weight and loss of vision from a cerebrovascular accident (stroke) with
interventions including the resident required total assistance of two staff to move between surfaces using a
Hoyer mechanical lift.During an observation on 7/01/25 at 8:38 AM, RCP E performed a mechanical lift
transfer from a wheelchair to bed on Resident #2. RCP E placed the mechanical lift legs in the wide
position around Resident #2's wheelchair. RCP E and RCP A attached the lift pad that was already under
Resident #2. RCP E then did not lock the mechanical lift wheels and lifted Resident #2 up out of the
wheelchair. The mechanical lift rolled toward the resident while RCP E was raising Resident #2 up. RCP E
pulled Resident #2 backwards while RCP A moved the wheelchair from under the resident. RCP E the
moved the mechanical lift legs to closed/narrow position, pulled Resident #2 backwards, turned toward the
bed and then pushed Resident #2 over the bed. RCP E then lowered Resident #2 onto the bed, as RCP A
guided the resident, and RCP E did not open the mechanical lift legs to the wide position and did not lock
the mechanical lift wheels when lowering Resident #2 onto her bed.During an interview on 7/01/25 at 1:52
PM, RCP E said she had worked at the facility for a week and had been training on different halls. RCP E
said she had not been checked off on mechanical Hoyer lift transfers yet but had been a CNA for 35 years
and had been doing Hoyer lifts all that time. RCP E said the mechanical lift should have the legs in the wide
position so it would go around the wheelchair. RCP E said the mechanical lift legs should be closed (narrow
position) during transferring the resident because the mechanical lift was easier to push. RCP E said the
wheels on the lift should be locked as a safety thing at all times. RCP E said she did not put the mechanical
lift wheel locks on because it allowed her to move the mechanical lift to keep the bars out of the resident's
face. RCP E said the mechanical lift was more stable with the legs in the wide position. RCP E said the
mechanical lift was safer when the mechanical lift legs were closed (narrow position) during a transfer, but
the mechanical lift legs should be opened to the wide position when lowering the resident to the bed. RCP
E said she did not remember if she put the mechanical lift legs in the wide position or

locked the wheels when lowering the position onto the bed.During an interview on 7/01/25 at 2:02 PM, RCP
A said she had worked at the facility for approximately three years. RCP A said the mechanical lift legs
should be in wide position for stability and so it would fit around the wheelchair. RCP A said the mechanical
lift wheels should be locked when lifting or lowering the resident, so the mechanical lift does not move. RCP
A said the mechanical lift legs should be in the narrow position during transferring the resident and when
lowering the resident onto the bed. RCP A said the lift was more stable with the legs opened wide. RCP A
said the legs of the mechanical lift should be opened wide, because it was safer for the resident during
transfers and the mechanical lift could tip over and injure the resident. RCP A said she had been checked
off on doing safe mechanical lift transfers. RCP A said she was guiding the resident while RCP E performed
the mechanical lift on Resident #2 on 7/01/25 and did not notice if RCP E locked the wheels or if the legs
were in the wide position during transferring the resident.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 11:52 AM, the
ADCO said the lift process should be 2 people, one managing the lift and one making sure to safely move
the resident. The ADCO said the mechanical lift legs should be in the wide position when going around the
resident's wheelchair. The ADCO said then staff should close the mechanical lift legs after clearing the
wheelchair and moving the resident the legs should be in the closed position to keep from hitting the legs
on something else. The ADCO said the legs in wide position was to create a larger opening and give a
wider base of support when lifting the resident. The ADCO said the legs should be in the closed position
when lowering onto the bed. The ADCO said the wheels of the lift should be locked before any lifting or
lowering of the resident. The ADCO said the wheels should be locked for the safety of the resident. The
ADCO said the resident could be injured or the lift could turn over if the wheels were not locked. The ADCO
said he was responsible for doing the competencies with the RCPs and ensuring they were providing safe
competent care to the residents. The ADCO said they did not have a policy on competent staff, but utilized
the Competency Check Off form as a guide in training staff.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:14 PM, the
DCO said the wheels should be locked on the mechanical lift during standing positions and the mechanical
lift legs in wide position during transferring/moving for resident safety. The DCO said the resident could
possibly fall if transferred/moved if the mechanical lift legs were not in the wide position or the wheels
locked. The DCO said the legs in the wide position provides a wider surface for preventing falls. The DCO
said the administration teams were responsible for ensuring the staff were checked off and were performing
skills adequately. The DCO said the wheels of the mechanical lift should be locked so it did not lose
positioning and should stay locked until ready to transfer/move the resident.During an interview on 7/02/25
at 2:39 PM, the EDO said the governing body, the DCO and ADCO, were responsible for ensuring staff
were providing competent care. The EDO said they performed skill check offs with staff upon hire, annually,
and as needed. The EDO said she would expect the supervising nurses to manage that system. The EDO
said the legs of the mechanical lift should have been in the wide position during lifting, moving, and
lowering the resident and the wheels locked when not in motion for the safety of the resident. The EDO said
not locking the wheels during lowering and lifting and not putting the mechanical lift legs in the wide
position during lifting, moving, and lowering the resident, could contribute to an accident due to misuse of
the lift. The EDO said if the legs of the mechanical lift were not in the wide position, the lift could become off
balance and the resident could fall.Record review of the facility's Mechanical Lift Competency (bed to chair)
dated 6/27/25 had a P marked in each section of the procedure which indicated RCP E passed all
components and performed the skill competently . procedure . 3. place sling under resident . 4. bring

potatoes with rotten areas and growing sprouts.
During an observation on 06/30/25 at 8:53 a.m., revealed there was a cup in the sugar bin.
During an observation on 07/01/25 at 11:56 a.m., in the kitchen area the ceiling under the air conditioning
duct had several brown stains and was buckled. There were several brackets in place securing the ceiling in
place. Between the air conditioning duct and the vent hood over the stove there were five towels stuck in
between the vent hood and duct. There were five vents coming from the air conditioning duct and each had
gray dust particles built up. One vent had condensation built up and was occasionally dripping onto the
kitchen floor. One vent had a black substance on it.
During an interview on 07/02/25 at 10:13 a.m., the Maintenance Supervisor said he was not aware of the
damage, the baseboard being pulled out or the hole in wall in the pantry. He said he did not go in the
kitchen unless he was told about something in the kitchen. He said the Dietary Manager reported any
maintenance issues to him. He said the ceiling under the air conditioner duct was old and needed to be
replaced. He said he did not know how long it had been buckled and the stains. He said it had been like that
at least year. He said the vents dripped because of the heat from the stove caused condensation. He said
he did not know who was responsible for cleaning the vents. He said he had cleaned them before. He said
he would not go in and clean them unless the DM asked him to clean them. He said the towels were behind
the air condition duct to keep the ceiling pushed up and not droop. He said the towels were not to collect
condensation. He said he noticed the towels there when he was in the kitchen on 07/01/25.
During an interview on 07/02/25 at 10:40 a.m., the Dietary Manager said all dietary staff were responsible
for dating and labeling food. He said a food items not being dated could cause old or out of date food to be
served. He said even though a food item was not labeled staff would still know what the food item was, but
dating and labeling food was important. He said, They go hand in hand. He said usually scoops were not
left in bulk food items. He said he did not know why the scoop was left

in the sugar. He said a scoop being left in the sugar could cause cross contamination. He said all dietary
staff were responsible for removing rotting food. He said any rotting food should be thrown away. He said he
would have expected for the potatoes to have been thrown out. He said rotten food could lead to foodborne
illness. He said he did not know how long the wall had been damaged in the pantry. He said at some point
the air conditioner in that wall had frozen up. He said the towel was placed there to absorb the moisture
from the air conditioner. He said moisture from the air conditioner caused the baseboard to pull away and
caused the hole in the wall. He said he had forgotten to report it to maintenance. He said the moisture could
cause mold and the hole being in the wall could increase the chances of pest in the pantry. He said the
ceiling being buckled and stained under the air conditioner duct had been that way for at least a year. He
said the Maintenance Supervisor was aware because he had done a walk through. He said he did not know
why the towels were between the air duct and the vent-o-hood. He said he thought it was the Maintenance
Supervisor's responsibility to clean the air conditioner vents. He said the one vent had a lot of condensation
since the weather had gotten hot. He said the condensation or dusty particles from the vents could fall into
the food and cause cross contamination.
During an interview on 07/02/25 at 3:02 p.m., the EDO said anyone that opened foods was responsible for
dating and labeling foods. She said, ultimately the DM was responsible for making sure that was done. She
said food not being dated could cause food to be kept past the time of consumption and make the resident
ill. She said food not being labeled could cause you not to know what the item was, and it not be safe for
consumption. She said scoops should not be stored in food items because it could pass germs to the food
item. This could cause a risk for infection and spread of germs. She said any food item with obvious signs of
aging or decay should not be consumed because you do not want to keep a spoiled item that could make a
resident sick. She said they should not have retained the potatoes. She said the wall in the pantry should
have been reported to her and to the Maintenance Supervisor and it should have been repaired upon
knowledge. She said the ceiling under the air conditioner duct should have been repaired and towels should
be utilized in that space. She said condensation dripping could cause a fall. She said the air conditioning
vents should be kept clean by dietary staff. She said there were times and places that would require
assistance from the Maintenance Supervisor. She said she would have expected the vents to have been
kept clean or at least let her know they were not able to clean them. She said the particle or germs from the
dirty air conditioning vents could contaminate the food.
Record review of a Food Storage facility policy dated 01/2018 indicated, .All food purchased will be
wholesome, manufactured, process, and prepared in compliance with all State, Federal, and local laws and
regulations. Food will be handled in a safe and sanitary method to prevent contamination and food-borne

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 establish and 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 diseases and infections for 1 of 4 residents reviewed
for enhanced barrier precautions (Resident #121) infection control practices.The facility failed to ensure RN
C donned (put on) a gown prior administering medications and feeding to Resident #121 via g-tube.
Resident #121 was on enhanced barrier precautions.These failures could place residents at risk of
exposure to communicable diseases, cross-contamination, and infections.Findings included:
Residents Affected - Few
Record review of Resident #121's face sheet dated 07/07/25, indicated she was a [AGE] year-old female
that admitted [DATE] with diagnoses that included: epilepsy (a disorder in which nerve cell activity in the
brain disturbed, causing seizures), gastrostomy status (opening allows for a tube to be inserted, providing a
direct route for administering food), muscle weakness and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing foods or liquids).
Record review of Resident #121's physician's order indicated: dated 6/24/25 enteral feed order one time a
day document start and stop times as they pertain to down time if ordered. If continuous during the shift,
document 'not applicable' next to start/stop time. jevity 1.5 at 55mL/hr with 30mL/hr water flush for 20 hours.
Record review of the quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #121 usually understood
others and was usually understood by others. Resident #121 BIMS score was a 15 which indicated she
was cognitively intact. She was dependent with ADL's. Resident #121 was always incontinent with bowel
and bladder.
Record review of the care plan dated 09/13/24 indicated Resident #121 was on EBP (Enhanced Barrier
Precautions) due to feeding tube. Interventions (enhanced barrier precautions) sign will be placed inside
resident room within close proximity to resident to inform staff of resident specific needs. EBP supplies
(gown and gloves) will be readily available. EBP supplies will be discarded in regular trash receptacle
unless soiled with blood or bodily fluids. Residents are not restricted to their rooms or limited from group
activities, as they are not considered in isolation for EBP only. Staff will maintain EBP (Enhanced Barrier
Precautions) during high contact resident care activities such as dressing, bathing/showering, transferring,
providing hygiene, changing linens, changing briefs, or toileting. Staff will maintain EBP will performing any
type of device care such as but not limited to the following: central line care, tracheostomy care, urinary
catheter care, feeding tube care, and wound care.
Record review of the care plan dated 02/15/24 indicated Resident #121 required tube feeding related to
dysphagia and recent vent/inability to swallow. I have pleasure feeding only with speech therapy
supervision but am NPO (nothing by mouth) with nursing staff. I choose to sit in the dining room during
meals even though I am NPO (nothing by mouth). On 6/24/25 Resident #121 failed the swallow study
during hospital stay and am now NPO (nothing by mouth). Interventions: the resident needs the HOB (head
of bed) elevated at least 30 degrees during and thirty minutes after tube feed. Check for tube placement
and gastric contents/residual volume per facility protocol and record. Discuss with the
resident/family/caregivers any concerns about tube feeding, advantages, disadvantages and potential
complications. Listen to lung sounds. Monitor/document/report PRN (as needed) any signs and symptoms

g-tube placement, gave medications and started feeding jevity 1.5 cal 55ml/hr via g-tube without donning a
gown.
During an interview on 7/01/25 at 12:21 P.M., RN C said this was her first day working with Resident #121.
She said she was not sure if Resident #121 was on enhanced barrier precautions. She said she had not
been wearing her gown when she gave Resident #121 her medications and feedings. She said she did not
see the enhancement barrier precaution sign or the PPE material in the resident's room. She said
enhanced barrier precautions prevented the spread of infection.
During an interview on 7/01/25 at 12:28 P.M., the ADCO said there was an EBP (enhanced barrier
precautions) sign in Resident #121's room under her light and the PPE supplies cart was in the resident's
room next to her nightstand. He said he would do a one-on-one in-service with RN C and a general all staff
in-service over EBP (enhanced barrier precautions). He said it was important for staff to wear their PPE to
reduce the risk of infection to the device Resident #121 had.
During an interview on 7/02/25 at 10:49 A.M., LVN H said when a resident was on enhancement barrier
precautions staff should wear PPE such as their gown and gloves to prevent the nurse or RCP from coming
in contact with the back splash from the resident g-tube. She said EBP (enhancement barrier precautions)
was to prevent cross contamination when a resident had a g-tube.
During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:46 P.M., the DCO said she expected the staff to follow EBP
(enhancement barrier precautions). She said ADCO did one-on-one in-service with RN C yesterday over
EBP (enhancement barrier precautions). She said EBP (enhancement barrier precautions) was not only to
protect the staff it was to protect the residents from infections as well.
During an interview on 7/02/25 at 3:30 P.M., the EDO said she expected the staff to use the new
enhancement barrier precautions guidelines, because Resident #121 did have a peg-tube. She said a
negative effect of not using enhancement barrier precautions staff could pass on infections to other
residents.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to follow their own established smoking policy for
1 of 9 residents reviewed for smoking. (Resident #37)The facility failed to ensure Resident #37 followed the
smoking policy and did not have smoking supplies (cigarettes and lighter) at his bedside. This failure could
place residents at risk for injury or harm. Findings included:Record review of Resident #37's face sheet
dated 6/30/25 indicated he was [AGE] years old and admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #37 had
diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD- a group of lung diseases that
block airflow and make it difficult to breathe), senile degeneration of the brain (decline in cognitive function
associated with aging), lack of coordination, and nicotine dependence.Record review of Resident #37's
annual MDS assessment dated [DATE], indicated he had a BIMS score of 9, which indicated he had
moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS indicated Resident #37 had continuous inattention. The MDS
indicated Resident #37 was independent or needed set-up/clean-up assistance for most ADLs. The MDS
did not indicate Resident #37 was using tobacco at the time of the assessment.Record review of Resident
#37's undated Care Plan Report indicated he had a behavior problem related to anxiety, low frustration
tolerance with poor impulse control, and often refused to follow smoking rules and attempted to hide
cigarettes and lighter. Interventions included to intervene as necessary to protect the rights and safety of
others. Resident #37 had impaired cognition with poor judgement, sense of safety, decision making skills
related to dementia, very poor memory and often thought staff were talking about him, keeping his money,
and not following smoke break times. Resident #37 was a smoker of tobacco and had a history of not
following smoking rules and was very anxious and aggressive if smoke breaks were late. Interventions
included for resident to keep all lighters/matches with facility staff for safety, and resident would participate
in supervised smoke breaks.Record review of Resident #37's Safe Smoking assessment dated [DATE]

were safe, and they had to light their cigarettes for them. The Director of Environmental Services said the
policy said the residents were not supposed to have cigarettes or lighters in their rooms. The Director of
Environmental Services said they should not have smoking supplies in their rooms, because they could
smoke in the rooms and start a fire and it was a big no, no. The Director of Environmental Services said she
had reported it to EDO previously and they have had a meeting about it and took all the supplies from
residents. The Director of Environmental Services said Resident #37 was upset about it but he gave his
smoking supplies to her but now had them back in his room. The Director of Environmental Services said
Resident #37 had told her that morning (7/02/25), his hospice nurse brought him cigarettes yesterday
(7/01/25) and apparently left them with him in his room. The Director of Environmental Services said the
Activity Director kept all the extra cigarettes locked up and they had the smoking supply box to take out
during smoke breaks.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 9:58 AM, RCP F said he had worked at the facility
for about 2 years and normally worked the 6 AM -2 PM shift. RCP F said he was the RCP for Resident #37.
RCP F said he had not seen Resident #37 with smoking supplies in his room. RCP F said he would report
to the nurse if he saw smoking supplies in a resident's room and explain the rules and safety of him having
them. RCP F said smoking supplies should be kept in the smoke box and locked up. RCP F said the EDO
and the Social Worker were responsible for ensuring the residents were following the smoking policy, but he
guessed they all would be responsible for reporting it to the higher ups. RCP F said residents should not
have smoking supplies in room, because they could cause a fire and cause harm to themselves or others.
With surveyor intervention, RCP F went to Resident #37's room and retrieved his cigarettes and
lighter.During an interview on 7/02/25 at 10:05 AM, the Director of Environmental Services said they had
confirmed Resident #37 did not have any smoking supplies on his person and he was informed that he
could not smoke without supervision and could not keep smoking supplies in his room.During an interview
on 7/02/25 at 10:16 AM, RN B said smoking was a problem at the facility because they took the residents'
lighters and they end up getting more on their person, and residents wanting to go out when it was not time.
RN B said residents should follow the smoking policy because the resident could set themself or someone
else on fire and they should always be supervised. RN B said the residents should not have smoking
supplies at their bedside. RN B said the charge nurse, DCO, ADCO, and all employees were responsible for
ensuring the smoking policy was being followed by the residents. RN B said when nursing staff enforce the
smoking policy; the administration team should back them up. During an interview on 7/02/25 at 11:52 AM,
the ADCO said residents should not have smoking supplies in their room to prevent harm to themselves
and all the hazards that could happen, being flammable. The ADCO said smoking supplies should be kept
in the locked tackle box in the medication room at the nurses' station. The ADCO said everyone was
responsible for ensuring the residents were following the smoking policy, but the Social Worker was
responsible for addressing any smoking violations. During an interview on 7/02/25 at 2:14 PM, the DCO
said resident smoking supplies should be kept in the locked box at the nurses' station. The DCO said they
all were responsible for ensuring the smoking policy was being followed by the residents and if they had an
issue with a resident, they would send the Social Worker to talk to the resident. The DCO said smoking
supplies in a resident's room was a hazard because they had oxygen throughout the building. During an
interview on 7/02/25 at 2:37 PM, the Social Worker said she knew she had given Resident #37 some
smoking violations, but she did not remember how long ago. The Social Worker said the last smoking
violation he received was in February of 2025 for smoking outside the scheduled times.During an interview
on 7/02/25 at 2:39 PM, the EDO said they were trying to revamp the smoking policy currently because they
