F 0600 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement individualized and effective interventions to protect one of four sampled residents, Resident 6, with known yelling behavior, from verbal threats of violence by her roommate (Resident 5), on 4/18/25. Note: The nursing home is disputing this citation. This failure resulted in Resident 6 screaming fearfully with a frightened look on her face, causing potential psychosocial distress. Findings: During an observation on 4/22/23 at 3:04 PM, in Resident 6's room, Resident 6 was heard calling out incoherently (words that are difficult to understand). Resident 6 stopped calling out when asked questions but did not answer any questions verbally or by gesture, including when asked her name. Resident 6 stared with a blank expression when asked questions and did not respond. Resident 6 was observed inside the room quiet and called out incoherent words when observed from outside the room. During an interview on 4/22/25 at 3:08 PM, Resident 7 stated that Resident 6 calls out a lot when she needs something. Resident 7 stated Resident 6 did not really talk. During an observation on 4/22/25 at 3:12 PM, in the hallway near Resident 6's room, Resident 6 could be heard calling out from her room. Nurses observed at the nurse ' s station did not respond to Resident 6 calling out. During an observation on 4/22/25 at 3:16 PM, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 2, was observed going into Resident 6's room. CNA 2 was heard talking to Resident 6 in a language other than English, Resident 6 still did not respond to CNA 2 talking to her and continued to make incoherent sounds. During an interview on 4/22/25 at 5:07 PM, in the hallway outside of Resident 6's room, CNA 2 confirmed he went into Resident 6's room because she was calling out. CNA 2 stated Resident 6 called out all the time for assistance since Resident 6 did not understand how to use the call light. CNA 2 stated Resident 6 was mostly non-verbal (does not talk) but she used to say some words in English and another language. CNA 2 stated since Resident 6 could not express her needs, they tried to anticipate her needs, by making sure she was not soiled, and offered food/drinks. During an interview on 4/22/25 at 5:15 PM, Licensed Nurse (LN) 3 stated she was familiar with Resident 6. LN 3 further stated, it was normal for Resident 6 to call out and stated it was Resident 6's baseline (normal behavior). LN 3 further explained Resident 6 was lonely and called out to have someone around her. LN 3 further stated calling out was Resident 6's way of talking because Resident 6 (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.

The DON further explained if the facility talked to Resident 6 in another language, she would respond. When explained to the DON, staff were observed trying to talk to Resident 6 in another language she still did not respond. The DON then stated it would be beneficial to create new behavior monitoring with interventions that they were already doing and update Resident 6's care plan and monitoring to meet Resident 6's needs. The DON explained the importance of care plan interventions was to ensure the resident's care plan was followed, to see what was working for the resident, and what interventions needed to be revised to better fit their individualized needs.

F 0686 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some each resident had a care plan with an Intervention/Task of Turning and repositioning q2h. The DON reviewed the document titled, POC [point of care] Response History, for the date 4/15/25, which indicated, Task: TURNING [and] REPOSITIONING EVERY 2 HOURS [and] PRN. The times documented and reviewed with the DON for turning and repositioning Resident 1 on 4/15/25 were: 13:18 [1:18 PM], 20:11 [8:11 PM], and 22:00 [10 PM]. The DON confirmed there was no documented evidence that Resident 1 was turned and repositioned every two hours per Resident 1 ' s care plan. The times documented and reviewed with the DON for turning and repositioning Resident 2 on 4/15/25 were: 00:59 [12:59 AM], 01:02 AM, 03:28 AM, 05:13 AM, 13:39 [1:39 PM], 20:25 [8:25 PM], and 21:33 [9:33 PM].
