Honor the resident's right to share a room with spouse or roommate of choice and receive written notice
before a change is made.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of three sampled resident ' s
(Resident 1) room change request was accommodated and followed through.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 1 ' s decreased feelings of self-worth.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1 ' s admission Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility
admitted Resident 1 on 12/20/2022 with diagnoses including monoplegia (a paralysis that affects a single
limb) of lower limb following cerebral infarction (damage to tissues in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to
the area) affecting the left non-dominant side, hemiplegia (inability to move one side of the body) and
hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) following cerebral infarction affecting the right dominant
side, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD - a lung disease characterized by long term poor
airflow).
During a review of Resident 1 ' s History and Physical (H&P), dated 12/18/2024, the H&P indicated the
resident had unspecified depression (experiencing symptoms that suggest depression [a constant feeling of
sadness and loss of interest, which stops the individual from doing normal activities] but does not meet the
full criteria for any of the depressive disorder diagnoses).
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Minimum Data Set (MDS – a resident assessment tool), dated
3/27/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 ' s cognition (refers to conscious mental activities including
thinking, reasoning, understanding, learning, and remembering) was intact. The MDS indicated Resident 1
required supervision (assistance may be provided throughout the activity or intermittently) on rolling left and
right, sitting to lying, lying to sitting on the side of the bed, and sitting to standing.
During an interview on 5/6/2025 at 1:22 p.m. and a concurrent record review of Resident 1 ' s Notification of
Room Change, dated 2/14/2025 and 2/19/2025, reviewed with the SSD, the SSD stated Resident 1
requested for a room change on 2/2025. The SSD stated Resident 1 was offered two rooms, but the
resident refused both. The SSD stated she was responsible for ensuring resident room change requests
were followed through. The SSD stated she did not follow up with Resident 1 ' s room change preference
after 2/19/2025. The SSD stated it had the potential for residents to feel their preferences were not honored.
The SSD stated the facility failed to follow up Resident 1 ' s room change request.
During an interview on 5/6/2025 at 4:30 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated residents '
room change preferences should be honored as much as possible. The DON stated Resident 1 '

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to protect the resident ' s right to be free from physical abuse
(deliberately aggressive or violent behavior with the intention to cause harm) for one of four sampled
residents (Resident 1). On 4/22/2025 at 8:40 p.m., Resident 1 and Resident 2, who were both inside Room
A (Residents 1 and 2 ' s room), had a verbal altercation (a noisy argument or disagreement) that led to a
physical altercation (a confrontation or fight involving physical contact or force) in which Resident 2
punched Resident 1 on the left side of the face with a left closed fist.
This deficient practice resulted in Resident 1 being subjected to physical abuse by Resident 2 while under
the care of the facility. On 4/22/2025, Resident 1 sustained left face swelling and pain level of seven (severe
pain) out of ten on the numeric pain rating scale (a pain assessment tool that uses a scale ranging from
zero [no pain] to ten [worst pain imaginable], to quantify pain intensity). Resident 1 was sent to General
Acute Care Hospital 1 (GACH 1) on 4/23/2025 at 11:25 a.m. where Resident 1 was diagnosed with a
displaced nasal bone fracture (occurs when the bone on the nose was broken into two or more parts
allowing the bones to shift out of alignment).
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1 ' s admission Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility
admitted Resident 1 on 12/20/2022 with diagnoses including monoplegia (a paralysis that affects a single
limb) of lower limb following cerebral infarction (damage to tissues in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to
the area) affecting the left non-dominant side, hemiplegia (inability to move one side of the body) and
hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) following cerebral infarction affecting the right dominant
side, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD - a lung disease characterized by long term poor

During a review of Resident 1 ' s Minimum Data Set (MDS – a resident assessment tool), dated
3/27/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 ' s cognition (refers to conscious mental activities including
thinking, reasoning, understanding, learning, and remembering) was intact. The MDS indicated Resident 1
required supervision (assistance may be provided throughout the activity or intermittently) on rolling left and
right, sitting to lying, lying to sitting on the side of the bed, and sitting to standing.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Progress Notes, dated 4/22/2025 at 11 p.m., the Progress Notes indicated
Resident 1 ' s skin was checked and documented that Resident 1 had left facial swelling related to the
altercation with Resident 2.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Neurological Flowsheet (used to assess, monitor, and record specific
neurological [referred to anything related to the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, and
nerves] status following an injury resulting in suspected or actual head trauma), dated 4/22/2025 to
4/23/2025, the Neurological Flowsheet indicated on 4/22/2025 at 10 p.m., Resident 1 had seven out of ten
on the numeric pain rating scale.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Change in Condition (COC – when there is a sudden change in a
resident ' s condition) Evaluation, dated 4/23/2025 at 12:30 a.m., the COC Evaluation indicated Resident 1

interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the medical records of two of three sampled
residents (Resident 1 and Resident 2) were maintained in accordance with accepted professional

resident ' s COC.
4. Ensure the Social Services Director (SSD) documented the level of psychosocial (the interrelation of

These deficient practices resulted in inaccurate information on Resident 1 and Resident 2 ' s medical
