**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure each resident was treated with respect,
dignity, and care for 1 of 16 residents (Resident # 57) observed for care in that:
CNA A failed to sit while feeding Resident #57 in the dining room on 12/3/2024.
This failure could place residents at risk of not being treated with dignity and respect.
Findings included:
Record review of a face sheet for Resident #57 dated 12/3/2024 indicated he admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and was [AGE] years old with diagnoses of quadriplegia (paralyzed from the neck down), atrial
fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) and contracture of left hand (deformity of the hand).
Record review of a Quarterly MDS Assessment for Resident #57 dated 10/30/2024 indicated he had
moderate impairment in thinking with a BIMS score of 11. He was dependent on staff with all ADLs.
Record review of a care plan for Resident #57 dated 10/8/2024 indicated he had a self-care deficit with
eating and needed to be spoon fed all his meals.
During an observation on 12/3/2024 at 9:32 AM, CNA A was in the dining room feeding Resident #57 while
standing.
During an interview on 12/3/2024 at 9:37 AM, CNA A said she had been employed at the facility for a week.
She said she had just finished feeding Resident #57 and was standing while doing so. She said she knew
that the facility wanted them to sit while feeding residents and thought that was what she was supposed to
do. She said she did not know why she was not sitting. She said if someone was feeding her while standing,
she would not like it and would feel like they were being rushed.
During an interview on 12/4/2024 at 10:01 AM, the ADON said she was responsible for training staff in the
facility and conducting skills check offs. She said trainings were done on hire, annually, and as needed. She
said the staff were trained during orientation on how to be positioned while feeding a resident. She said
staff should be directly in front of the residents, sitting and not standing. She said residents may feel
insecure if someone was standing over them while feeding.
Record review of an in-service training record undated indicated staff were trained on dignity issues while
feeding residents and CNA A was in attendance.

During an interview on 12/4/2024 at 2:46 PM, the DON said staff should be sitting down at eye level when
assisting with feeding a resident and never standing. She said when staff were hired, whoever trained them
instructed staff to sit while feeding residents. She said she would not like if someone was standing over her
while feeding and it would be a dignity issue.
During an interview on 12/4/2024 at 3:17 PM, the Administrator said all staff that are hired complete a floor
orientation with designated staff and were trained on assisting residents with meals. She said the staff
should be at the level of the resident and should not be standing while feeding a resident. She said it could
make them feel like they were being intimidated. She said they did not have a policy on dignity.

These failures could affect residents who used their call lights or desire to use the call lights and place them
at risk of not being able to notify staff of their needs.
Findings include:
Record review of a facility face sheet dated 12/3/24 for Resident # 24 reflected that she was a [AGE]
year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that include congestive heart failure (a

themselves.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:40 pm DON said Resident #24 had wrapped the string around the grab
bar herself. DON said she had spoken to Resident #24 and educated her on why the string should not be
wrapped around the grab bar. She said she would be having administrative teams checking the bathroom
call light strings going forward.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:50 pm Administrator said Resident #24 had been educated and staff

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered
care plan that describes the services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest
practicable physical, mental and psychosocial well-being for 1 of 8 residents (Resident #18) reviewed for
care plans.
The facility failed to develop a comprehensive care plan that included Resident #18's requirement of using
a mechanical lift to transfer.
This failure could place residents at risk of not having individual needs met and cause residents not to
receive needed services.
Findings:
Record review of a facility face sheet dated 12/2/24 for Resident #18 reflected that he was an [AGE]
year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included parkinsonism (a clinical
syndrome characterized by tremor, bradykinesia (slowed movements), rigidity, and postural instability),
hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side
(weakness/paralysis to one side of body following a stroke), and Alzheimer's.
Record review of a quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] for Resident #18 reflected that he had a BIMS
score of 6, which indicated that he had severely impaired cognition. He was dependent with transfers and
all ADLs.
During an observation on 12/2/24 at 12:10 pm Resident #18 was observed in the dining room. He was
observed in a wheelchair with a mechanical lift sling underneath him. The lift sling loops were observed to
be faded in color and were a very light pink in color. The lift sling was a blue mesh in color with light pink
spots observed in the mesh and the label was unreadable.
Record review of a comprehensive care plan dated 5/16/24 for Resident #18 reflected an alteration in ADL
function and unsteady gait requiring X2 staff assist for transfers. The care plan did not address the use of a
mechanical lift.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:40 pm DON said the MDS nurse was responsible for care plans but she
was unavailable today. She said if a resident required a mechanical lift transfer and it was not properly care
planned, staff may not know, and the resident could be at risk for falls and injuries.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:50 pm Administrator said the care plans should address resident's
needs. She said a resident could be at risk of not receiving the proper assistance. She said going forward,
she would expect staff to double check care plans to ensure needed services were care planned.

spots should not be used because they could tear. She said staff may be unable to differentiate the colors
and not be able to tell which loops to use when transferring residents. She said the slings were Medline
brand.
During an observation and interview on 12/4/24 at 12:07 pm Laundry Supervisor said she does not launder
the slings with bleach. She said she trains her staff not to launder with bleach as well. She said slings are
laundered with personal laundry to ensure they are not bleached. She said laundry staff are responsible to
inspect lift slings before taking them back inside the facility for resident use and they inspect for signs of
wear and tear, loose stitches, and faded coloring. A lift sling was observed in the laundry room that had
been laundered and air dried. The sling loops were observed to be faded in coloring, loop colors were
unable to be differentiated, they all appeared to be a light purple in color. She said she did not notice the
coloring on the straps, that she would just look for faded coloring in the stitching. She said if unsafe slings
were used, residents could fall and be hurt.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:40 pm DON said laundry was responsible for checking slings before
bringing them back out for use, but that all staff that use them should inspect them before use. She said the
facility has done an in-service and ordered new slings. She said slings that were unsafe could rip and
residents could fall.
During an interview on 12/4/24 at 4:50 pm Administrator said she would have staff to continue inspecting
the lift slings and let her know of any that needed to be replaced.

and 12/3/2024) for nurse staffing posting.
Residents Affected - Many
The facility failed to post the daily staffing information in a prominent place on 12/2/2024 and 12/3/2024.
This failure could place residents, families, and visitors at risk of not being informed of the census and
number of staff working each day to provide care on all shifts.
Findings:
During an observation on 12/2/2024 at 9:00 AM, there was no daily staff posting in or around the front
entrance or at the nurse's station.
During an observation on 12/2/2024 at 11:07 AM, the daily staff posting was on a wall on B hall dated
12/2/2024.

12/3/2024.
During an observation on 12/4/2024 at 8:00 AM, the daily staff posting was dated 12/3/2024 at the front
entrance on a wall.
During an interview on 12/4/2024 at 10:01 AM, the ADON said she was responsible for putting out the daily
staff posting. She said she had always put the daily staff posting on B hall because that was where all other
postings were in the facility, and it had a wall mount for it. She said when she hired as the ADON she was
trained to place it on B hall. She said on yesterday 12/3/2024 they moved the posting to be placed at the
front entrance of the facility.
During an interview on 12/4/2024 at 3:17 PM, the Administrator said she was aware of the posting being on
B hall and no one had mentioned it before or brought it to her attention that it needed to be in another place
for all to see. She said they just followed the state regulation and there could be a risk of someone not
being informed of the planned staffing for the day if it was not in a location for all to see. She said they did
not have a policy for staff postings.

entree. The DM said she understands that not cleaning and sanitizing properly could cause food borne

steam table had not been cleaned as far as carbon build up in a while and when it happens, she cleans
them, and all essential equipment is wiped with cleaner every day. She said she knows everything in the
cooler and freezer should be dated and labeled and discarded within 3 days. She said she understands
gloves should be used during food preparation and that food can become contaminated if they don't wear
