Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure an effective pest control
program was implemented for a census of 85 residents, when flying insects were observed in four
residents' rooms.This failure decreased the facility's potential to maintain a pest free environment for the
residents.Findings: A review of Resident 1's admission Record, dated 8/12/25, indicated Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility in July 2025 with a diagnosis of anxiety (a common mental health condition
characterized by excessive worry, fear, and unease). Resident 1 had mental capacity to make own
decisions.A review of Resident 2's admission Record, dated 8/12/25, indicated Resident 2 was admitted to
the facility in August 2025 and had mental capacity to make own decisions.During a concurrent observation
and interview on 8/12/25 at 11:45 a.m. with Resident 1, Resident 1's room in Unit C was observed.
Numerous small insects were observed flying around and landing on Resident 1's bed, personal
belongings, pillows, a window next to her bed, and on the side table. When a curtain divider was touched,
multiple insects flew around Resident 1. Resident 1 expressed her frustration regarding the frequent
presence of insects around her face, nose, ears, and food. Resident 1 stated her previous roommate
reported the situation to the staff, but the problem persisted and worsened.During a concurrent observation
and interview on 8/12/25 at 11:55 a.m. with Resident 2 (shared the same room with Resident 1), Resident
2's room in Unit C was observed. Numerous insects were observed flying and landing on Resident 2 while
resting in bed and on the side table, walls, and curtains adjacent to Resident 2's bed. Resident 2 stated she
was constantly bothered by the insects around her face, nose, and ears. Resident 2 also stated some
insects crawled into her nose while she was asleep and kept disrupting her sleep. Resident 2 further stated
the issue was brought up to housekeeping but no improvement was noticed.During a concurrent
observation and interview on 8/12/25 at 12:01 p.m. with Licensed Nurse 1 (LN 1), Resident 1 and Resident
2's room was observed. LN 1 confirmed several insects were present on multiple surfaces in the room,
under the sink, and around both residents.During a concurrent observation and interview on 8/12/25 at
12:20 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), all the rooms in Unit C were inspected. DON confirmed there
were flying insects in four rooms in Unit C and the insects were observed flying on windows, walls, curtains,
around residents, and on their belongings.During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/12/25 at
2:40 p.m. with the Maintenance Supervisor (MS), a work order #1607, dated 8/7/25, was reviewed. MS
confirmed a high priority order was requested on 8/7/25 regarding little moths flying around in room esp.
[especially] window area. MS also confirmed the room listed in the work order was one of the four rooms
observed to currently have insects in Unit C and agreed the issue was not resolved. During an interview on
8/12/25 at 3:40 p.m. with the DON, DON confirmed that four residents' rooms in Unit C were infested by
insects and expected staff to report the issue to the managers and to log it in the maintenance log system.
DON agreed that insects disrupted the residents' rest and sleep, which might have impacted their health
and well-being.A review of the facility's policy titled, Pest Control, dated May 2008,
