This survey cited 6 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 interview and record review, the facility failed to create a baseline care plan (initial instructions that addresses resident-specific health and safety concerns immediately upon admission, including needs for supervision, behavioral interventions, and assistance with activities of daily living) within 48 hours of admission, for one of four residents (Resident 1), as indicated in the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled Care Plan - Baseline. This failure had the potential to result in Resident 1's care team not aware of Resident 1's needs and placed the resident at risk for not receiving the necessary care and services safely.Findings:During a record review of Resident 1's Inter-Facility Transfer Report (essential documentation accompanying a patient being transferred from one healthcare facility to another to receive a different level of care), dated 11/11/2025, the Inter-Facility Transfer Report indicated Resident 1 had left hip hemiarthroplasty (partial joint replacement surgery) on 11/9/2025. During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses including history of left femur (leg bone) fracture (broken bone) and for aftercare following joint replacement surgery. During a review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 11/12/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 1's care plan titled, Baseline Care Plan: Resident is newly admitted to the facility, dated 11/16/2025, the care plan interventions indicated to assist Resident 1 to acclimatize (become accustomed) with her new environment, assist with transfers and ambulation as needed, and provide assistance with activities of daily living as needed. During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 11/17/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 was cognitively intact and did not reject care. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was dependent (helper does all of the effort) for toileting hygiene (the ability to maintain perineal hygiene, adjust clothing before and after). The MDS indicated Resident 1 required maximum (helper foes more than half the effort) to shower/bathe herself. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) to roll left and right on the bed (the ability to roll from lying on back to left and right side, and return to lying on back on the bed), moving from sitting to lying (the ability to move from sitting on side of bed to lying flat on the bed), and move from a sitting to standing (the ability to come to a standing position from sitting). During a review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record (MAR - daily documentation by a licensed nurse for medications given to a resident), from 11/12/2025 through 11/14/2025, the MAR indicated Resident 1 was monitored for pain every shift, anticoagulant (blood thinner) medication monitoring every shift, and episodes of depression every shift.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/2/2025 at 2:25 p.m., with the Treatment Nurse (TN), Resident 1's care plan titled Baseline Care Plan: ., dated 11/16/2025, was reviewed. TN stated the baseline care plans should have been created and implemented within 48 hours of admission (on 11/14/2025). The TN stated Resident 1's (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.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete baseline care plans were created over 48 hours after admission (on 11/16/2025). The TN stated Resident 1 did not have baseline care plans to address her activities of daily living and her medications, conditions, and pain monitoring within 48 hours of admission. The TN stated that there was a risk of Resident 1's nursing staff being unaware of Resident 1's needs, which could result in those needs not being met.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 3:53 p.m., with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1), Resident 1's MDS, dated [DATE], was reviewed. RN 1 stated Resident 1 needed moderate to maximal assistance with toileting, bathing, and moving from a sitting to standing position. RN 1 stated Resident 1's care and level of assistance should have been care planned to inform the care team about Resident 1's needs and provide appropriate care.During a review of the facility's P&P titled Care Plan - Baseline, dated 8/25/2021, the P&P indicated a baseline care plan that included instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care of the resident should be developed for each resident by the Interdisciplinary Team ([IDT] group of healthcare professionals, including physician, nurses, resident/ resident representative, working together to develop a plan of care for the residents) within 48 hours of a resident's admission.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure care was provided in accordance with professional standards of practice and the resident's comprehensive person-centered care plan for one of three residents (Resident 1) who was admitted to the facility with a left hip surgical incision/wound received treatment. The facility failed to ensure:1). Resident 1's left hip surgical site/ wound was monitored for signs of infections like pustules (a small blister or pimple on the skin containing pus) and inflammation (a condition in which a part of the body becomes reddened, swollen, hot, and often painful, especially as a reaction to injury or infection) as indicated in Resident 1's care plan titled, Resident has skin breakdown related to surgical site.2). The Baseline Care Plan (a care plan developed within 48 hours of admission, which would address resident-specific health and safety concerns and instructions to prevent decline) was created timely, to ensure staff received the necessary interventions and instructions in the care and assessment of Resident 1's left hip surgical site. 3). Resident 1's follow up appointment to the surgeon (the doctor who performed surgery) was scheduled timely, as ordered on 11/13/2025. 4). The physician, physician assistant (PA) and licensed nurses, assessed Resident 1's left hip surgical site, for any signs of wound complications (such as redness, pain, discharges, and dehiscence) after admission to the facility on [DATE].5). Resident 1 was assessed thoroughly, when the resident presented pain on 11/16/2025, 11/17/2025, 11/20/2025, 11/21/2025, 11/22/2025, and 11/23/2025.These failures had the potential to result in delayed assessment for signs of infections and in providing the care and services necessary to promote wound healing. Findings:During a record review of Resident 1's Inter-Facility Transfer Report (essential documentation accompanying a patient being transferred from one healthcare facility to another to receive a different level of care), dated 11/11/2025, the Inter-Facility Transfer Report indicated Resident 1 had left hip hemiarthroplasty (partial joint replacement surgery) on 11/9/2025.During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses including history of left femur (leg bone) fracture (broken bone) and for aftercare following joint replacement surgery.During a review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 11/12/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand and make decisions.During a review of Resident 1's Body Check, dated 11/12/2025, the Body Check indicated Resident 1 had a left trochanter (hip) surgical site (the specific location where an incision (cut) was made to perform an operation), measuring 15 centimeters (cm- a metric unit of length) with 23 staples (wound closure devices). Resident 1's Body Check indicated the left trochanter surgical site had some hematuria (bloody urine), no signs or symptoms of infection, and no dehiscence (a surgical incision or wound split open).During a review of Resident 1's care plan titled Resident has skin breakdown related to surgical site., dated 11/12/2025, the goal indicated the facility would manage wound odor (smell) and exudate (discharge). The interventions indicated to observe for signs and symptoms (s/s) of skin breakdown such as redness, cracking (split on the skin's surface), blistering (small bubbles on the skin filled with serum [fluid] and caused by friction, burning, or other damage), and skin that does not blanche (turn white when pressed) easily and to evaluate for localized skin problems such as dryness, redness, pustules, and inflammation.During a review of Resident 1's Physician Orders, dated 11/13/2025, the Physician Orders indicated staff to monitor Resident 1's left trochanter surgical site for skin breakdown every dayshift (7:00 a.m.- 3:00 p.m.). The Physician Orders indicated to schedule Resident 1's follow-up appointment with Medical Doctor 2 (MD 2- Surgeon).During a review of Resident 1's care plan titled, Baseline Care Plan: Resident is newly admitted to the facility, dated 11/16/2025, the care plan Residents Affected - Few (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 555004 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 14 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 555004 B.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few interventions indicated, alteration in skin integrity (skin's overall health) (Actual or Potential): monitor skin and report red/ discolored or broken skin; alteration in skin integrity: skin assessment per protocol; at risk for orthopedic complications: observe for s/s of infection at surgical site; at risk for pain/ discomfort: assess pain level as needed, give meds as ordered and observe for pain and provide comfort measures as needed.During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 11/17/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 was cognitively intact and did not reject care. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) to roll left and right on the bed (the ability to roll from lying on back to left and right side, and return to lying on back on the bed), moving from sitting to lying (the ability to move from sitting on side of bed to lying flat on the bed), and move from a sitting to standing (the ability to come to a standing position from sitting). The MDS indicated Resident 1 had a surgical wound and a history of surgery.During a review of Resident 1's Medical Doctor's Progress Notes, dated 11/17/2025, the progress notes indicated a plan for wound care and pain management for Resident 1.During a review of Resident 1's Follow-Up Progress Notes written by the PA 1, dated 11/19/2025, 11/21/2025, and 11/25/2025, the progress notes indicated Resident 1's left hip surgical wound dressing was clean, dry, and intact.During a review of Resident 1's Nurses Progress Note, dated 11/20/2025, the note indicated Resident 1's follow-up appointment with MD 2 was scheduled for 12/3/2025 at 1:45 p.m.During a review of Resident 1's Change of Condition (a communication tool used by healthcare workers when there is a change of condition [COC-a clinical deviation from a resident's baseline] among the residents), dated 11/26/2025 at 3:45 p.m., the COC indicated Resident 1's left trochanter surgical incision had 2 cm. of wound dehiscence. The COC indicated Resident 1's left trochanter surgical incision had some (unspecified) drainage and moisture. The COC indicated Resident 1's left trochanter surgical site dehiscence started in the morning. The COC indicated Resident 1's Medical Doctor 1 (MD 1) was notified about Resident 1's change in condition at 3:30 p.m.During a review of Resident 1's Progress Notes, dated 11/26/2025 at 6:30 p.m., the Progress Notes indicated paramedics arrived at the facility because Resident 1 called 911 for assistance with her left hip wound.During a review of Resident 1's General Acute Care Hospital (GACH) Emergency Department (ED) Provider Notes, dated 11/26/2025, the notes indicated Resident 1 called 911 for herself after an unnamed wound nurse informed her that her sutures (wound closure devices) were not effective. Resident 1 presented to the GACH ED with increased hip pain with erythema (redness of the skin) and scant clear discharge of the left hip surgical site.During a review of Resident 1's Treatment Administration Record (TAR -daily documentation by a licensed nurse for treatments given to a resident), for the month of 11/2025, the TAR did not indicate Resident 1's left trochanter surgical site was monitored for signs and symptoms of infection.During a review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record (MAR - daily documentation by a licensed nurse for medications given to a resident), for the month of 11/2025, the MAR indicated Resident 1 reported numerical pain levels (a pain scale used in a facility with 0 no pain, 1-3 mild pain, 4-6 moderate pain, 7-8 severe pain, 9-10 worst pain possible) as follows:1). 8/10 pain on 11/16/2025 at 4:46 p.m.,2). 8/10 pain on 11/17/2025 at 6:56 p.m. 3). 7/10 pain on 11/21/2025 at 7:39 p.m.,4). 7/10 pain on 11/22/2025 at 10:52 a.m.,5). 7/10 pain on 11/23/2025 at 3:29 a.m., and6). 8/10 pain of ten on 11/23/2025 at 9:57 a.m.The MAR did not indicate the location or quality of the pain.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/2/2025 at 2:25 p.m., with the Treatment Nurse (TN), Resident 1's Body Check, dated 11/12/2025, Resident 1's TAR, for the month of 11/2025, Resident 1's COC, dated 11/26/2025, and the facility's P&P titled Skin Integrity Management, dated 5/26/2025, were reviewed.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few with no dehiscence, no signs or symptoms, and some hematuria on the left hip surgical site. The TN stated she believed hematuria meant bloody discharge. The TN stated the wound assessment was incorrect because of hematuria which is of the urine and not from a wound. The TN stated Resident 1's monitoring documentation in the TAR did not indicate if Resident 1's left hip surgical site had skin breakdown based on the check marks documented in the TAR. The TN stated the P&P indicated Resident 1's left hip surgical site should have been measured and assessed weekly but was not. The TN stated the P&P indicated skin integrity status, the need for prevention, intervention and treatment were dependent on all assessment information. The TN stated that because Resident 1's left hip surgical site was not assessed and measured, staff were not able to plan and update wound interventions. The TN stated Resident 1's left hip surgical site was not assessed by the wound MD. The TN stated Resident 1 had no wound MD consultation order until after the wound dehisced on 11/26/2025.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 3:53 p.m., with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1), the TAR for the month of 11/2025, were reviewed. RN 1 stated Resident 1's left hip surgical site should have been assessed and measured at least weekly to identify any infections and to intervene as soon as signs of the infections occurred. RN 1 stated the left hip surgical site was not assessed and measured on 11/19/2025 and 11/26/2025. RN 1 stated Resident 1's left hip surgical site's wound healing should have been closely monitored to identify early signs of infection. RN 1 stated that Resident 1's severe infection and subsequent surgical wash-out (irrigation, lavage or flushing the surgical site with fluid (like sterile saline or soapy water) to remove blood, debris, dead tissue, bacteria, and other contaminants, preventing infection and promoting healing) could have been avoided if the wound was assessed weekly and monitored for signs of infections daily.During a concurrent interview and record review with Medical Doctor 1 (MD 1) on 12/9/2025 at 12:48 p.m., Resident 1's Orthopedic Note, dated 11/27/2025, Resident 1's GACH Surgical Notes, dated 11/28/2025, were reviewed. MD 1 stated she did not incision check Resident 1's left hip surgical site under the wound dressing at all while Resident 1 was at the facility. MD 1 stated she thought the facility's wound specialist MD and nurses were assessing and monitoring the wound for signs of infection. MD 1 stated she was notified on 11/26/2025, in the afternoon (time not specified), that Resident 1's left hip surgical wound was red, dehisced and had purulent discharge. MD 1 stated an underlying infection could have caused Resident 1's left hip surgical wound dehiscence. MD 1 stated that because of Resident 1's left hip surgical wound infection, Resident 1 was admitted to GACH 1, requiring surgical wound washout.During an interview on 12/11/2025 at 8:30 a.m., with Resident 1, Resident 1 stated she reported pain at the left hip incision site to the TN on 11/26/2025 around 3:00 p.m. Resident 1 stated the TN gasped and left the room when she saw Resident 1's left hip wound. Resident 1 stated she became very worried and concerned when the TN did not return. Resident 1 stated she called 911 (paramedics, emergency services) on 11/26/2025 around 5:30 p.m. because she was worried about her left hip incision.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/11/2025 at 9:40 a.m., with PA 1, Resident 1's Follow-Up Progress Notes written by PA 1, dated 11/19/2025, 11/21/2025 and 11/25/2025 were reviewed. PA 1 stated she only looked at Resident 1's left hip surgical dressing during her resident visits and assessments and did not check Resident 1's left hip surgical incision site. PA 1 stated she did not check/ assess the resident's surgical site on the left hip because she thought the wound care MD and TN assessed and monitored the left hip surgical site for signs of infection.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/12/2025 at 11:30 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 1's MAR and progress notes, for the month of 11/2025, were reviewed.

The DON stated Resident 1's MAR did not indicate the licensed nurses assessed Resident 1's pain location, quality, and aggravating factors (situation that made pain worse) every time Resident 1 reported pain. The DON stated pain on Resident 1's left hip surgical site could be a sign of infection or wound complication. The DON stated the licensed nurse assessing the pain did not assess Resident 1's left hip surgical wound for changes in condition and for signs of infection. The DON stated the licensed nurse should not assess the left hip surgical wound's dressing only.During an interview on 12/12/2025 at 1:15 p.m., with PA 1, PA 1 stated she trusted the facility's nurses to assess Resident 1's left hip wound. PA 1 stated Resident 1's pain on 11/17/2025, 11/20/2025, 11/21/2025, 11/22/2025, and 11/23/2025 could have been symptoms of infection and the wound should have been assessed each time the pain was reported. PA 1 stated she was not notified about Resident 1's pain and did not have time to review Resident 1's pattern of pain.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/11/2025 at 2:00 p.m. with the TN, Resident 1's care plan titled Resident has skin breakdown related to surgical site.,, dated 11/12/2025, TAR, for the month of 11/2025, and care plan titled Baseline Care Plan: Resident is newly admitted to the facility, dated 11/16/2025, were reviewed. The TN stated the baseline care plan was not specific and should have identified focus as actual alteration in skin integrity. The TN stated, in Resident 1's baseline care plan interventions indicating at risk for orthopedic (branch of medicine dealing with conditions affecting the bones or muscles) complications: observe for s/s of infection at surgical site, the intervention was not performed. The TN stated the signs and symptoms of infection was not the same as signs of skin breakdown. The TN stated she did not document or monitor for signs of symptoms of infection in Resident 1's wound after Resident 1 was admitted . The TN stated the intervention to evaluate any localize skin problems was not performed because licensed nurses only monitored for skin breakdown and did not assess signs of infection such as pustules, inflammation, purulent discharges, and fever. The TN stated the care plan's goal to manage wound odor and exudate indicate a goal to manage signs of infection.During an interview on 12/16/2025 at 2:39 p.m., with MD 4, MD 4 stated that doctors and licensed nurses must look under wound dressings to completely assess Resident 1's left hip surgical site/ wound. MD 4 stated looking at the outside wound dressing was not adequate to assess the resident's left hip surgical site/ wound and could lead to missed signs of infection that should have been caught earlier. During a review of the LVN Job Description, dated 5/2022, the job description indicated LVNs must provide nursing services to residents in accordance with facility policies and professional standards of care. The job description indicated that LVNs must possess the ability to plan, develop, implement, and interpret the goals and objectives to provide quality care.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled Skin Integrity Management, dated 5/26/2021, the P&P indicated to identify a resident's skin integrity status and need for treatment modalities (a specific method, technique, or approach used by healthcare professionals to promote healing). The P&P indicated, staff should perform skin inspection weekly and document in TAR or in Point Click Care (PCC- a computer program used for documentation). The P&P indicated to perform wound observations and measurements weekly, and with anticipated decline of wound. The P&P indicated to perform daily monitoring of wounds or dressings for presence of complications or declines and document if indicated. The P&P indicated facility should follow specific orders from the surgeon for surgical wounds.During a review of the facility's document titled Surgery-Related (Pre-and Postoperative) Management- Clinical Protocol, dated 10/2010, the document indicated, after readmission postoperatively (after surgery), the physician and facility staff should maintain appropriate communication with the surgeon to ensure the resident received adequate postoperative care.
