Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure confidential personal
information for one of four sampled residents (Resident 4) was protected. The medical records of Resident
4 were left unattended on the medication cart computer. This deficient practice had the potential to violate
Resident 4's rights for privacy and confidentiality of personal and medical records.Findings: During a review
of Resident 4's admission Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the
resident on 2/19/2026 with diagnoses including atherosclerotic heart disease (the buildup of fats,
cholesterol, and other substances in and on the artery walls), gastroesophageal reflux disease (a condition
in which the stomach contents leak backward from the stomach into the esophagus [the tube connecting
the mouth and stomach]), and age-related osteoporosis (a disease that makes bones thin, weak, and
brittle, increasing the risk of fractures [broken bones]). During an observation on 2/25/2026 at 9:58 a.m.,
observed the medication cart computer at nurse station 1 was open with Resident 4's medical record on
the computer screen. Resident 4's visible medical records included the resident's name, picture, and
medication list. Observed facility staff walked past the medication cart computer with Resident 4's medical
information on it. During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/25/2026 at 10:02 a.m. with Licensed
Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2, Resident 4's medical records were observed on the medication cart computer.
LVN 2 stated she did not lock the medication cart computer before she left to assist another resident. LVN 2
stated Resident 4's medical information was visible to the people walking on station 1 hallway. LVN 2 stated
Resident 4's medical records left unattended had the potential to violate resident confidentiality. During an
interview on 2/25/2026 at 3:30 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 4's
medical records should not be left unattended. The DON stated facility staff not involved in Resident 4's
care, other residents, and visitors had the potential for unauthorized access to Resident 4's medical
records. The DON stated the facility failed to ensure private information in Resident 4's medical records was
safe from unauthorized access. During a record review of the facility's policy and procedure (PnP) titled,
General Provisions, last reviewed on 1/26/2026, the PnP indicated protected health information contained
in the record is confidential and will only be released accordance with the facility's HIPPA policies. The PnP
indicated active records are to be located in an area not accessible to unauthorized persons.

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a comprehensive, person-centered care
plan with measurable objectives and interventions for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1) was
created and implemented. The facility failed to develop and implement an individualized care plan with
interventions addressing Resident 1's change of condition (COC) on 2/9/2026. This deficient practice had
placed Resident 1 at risk for not receiving the necessary services and assistance that can result in resident
injury or serious condition such as worsening of Resident 1's right hip fracture and pain.Findings: During a
review of Resident 1's admission Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 3/3/2025 with diagnoses including age-related osteoporosis (a disease that makes bones
thin, weak, and brittle, increasing the risk of fractures [broken bones]), unspecified dementia (a decline in
brain function including memory, language, reasoning, and behavior severe enough to interfere with daily
life but the specific type had not been identified), and essential hypertension (high blood pressure that is
not due to another medical condition). During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident
assessment tool), dated 11/24/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1's cognitive (conscious mental activities
including thinking, reasoning, understanding, learning, and remembering) skills for daily decision making
was severely impaired. During a review of Resident 1's COC Evaluation, dated 2/9/2026, the COC
Evaluation indicated Resident 1 complained of right hip pain. The COC Evaluation indicated Resident 1 was
given Tylenol for the right hip pain. The COC Evaluation indicated on 2/9/2026 at 2:45 p.m., Resident 1's
Attending Physician (MD) 1 was notified and ordered a right hip x-ray (a medical imaging that uses
radiation to take pictures of the inside of a body). During an interview on 2/24/2026 at 3:15 p.m., and
concurrent record review of Resident 1's Care Plans, reviewed with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated
Resident 1 complained of right hip pain on 2/9/2026. RN 1 stated there was no care plan created for
Resident 1's COC on 2/9/2026. RN 1 stated a care plan should be initiated to address Resident 1's right hip
pain. RN 1 stated if Resident 1's care plan was not created, the facility staff will not be aware of the
interventions to address the resident's COC. During an interview on 2/25/2026 at 3:30 p.m. with the Director
of Nursing (DON), the DON stated a care plan was a list of care and services to be provided for the
residents. The DON stated a care plan should be created after Resident 1's COC on 2/9/2026. The DON
stated Resident 1 did not have a care plan that included Resident 1's right hip pain. The DON stated
Resident 1's care had the potential to lack interventions to prevent further injuries and manage the
resident's pain. The DON stated the facility failed to ensure Resident 1 had a care plan after the resident's
COC on 2/9/2026 that addressed the resident's right hip pain. During a review of the facility's policy and
procedure (PnP) titled, Care Planning, last reviewed on 1/26/2026, the PnP indicated the purpose to
ensure that a comprehensive person-centered Care Plan is developed for each resident based on their
individual assessed needs. The PnP indicated each resident's comprehensive care plan will describe the.
services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental and
psychosocial well-being. During a review of the facility's PnP titled, Change of Condition Notification, last
reviewed on 1/26/2026, the PnP indicated a licensed nurse will. update the Care Plan to reflect the
resident's current status.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to follow professional standards of practice for one
of three sampled residents (Resident 1) by failing to:1. Ensure licensed nurses monitored Resident 1's
medical status after the resident's change of condition (COC) on 2/9/2026. Resident 1's COC status was
not monitored on 2/9/2026, 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift.2. Ensure Registered Nurse (RN) 1 assessed Resident
1's right lower extremity after the resident complained of right hip pain. These deficient practices had the
potential to place Resident 1 at risk for undetected and worsening medical conditions which could
negatively impact the residents' health and safety.Findings: During a review of Resident 1's admission
Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 3/3/2025 with
diagnoses including age-related osteoporosis (a disease that makes bones thin, weak, and brittle,
increasing the risk of fractures [broken bones]), unspecified dementia (a decline in brain function including

2/9/2026, indicated on 2/9/2026 at 2:40 p.m., Resident 1 complained of right hip pain. RN 1 stated Resident
1's COC should be monitored every shift for 72 hours. RN 1 stated Resident 1's Progress Notes indicated
there was no documented evidence that the resident was monitored on 2/9/2026 (11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift).
RN 1 stated she did not document her full assessment of Resident 1's right lower extremity on the
resident's Progress Notes. RN 1 stated a resident care that was not documented was considered as not
done. RN 1 stated incomplete documentation of Resident 1's health status had the potential for the
resident's health condition to worsen. During an interview on 2/25/2026 at 3:30 p.m. with the Director of
Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 1 should be monitored every shift for at least 72 hours after the
resident's COC. The DON stated there was no documented evidence that Resident 1 was monitored on
2/9/2026, 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift. The DON stated RN 1 did not document the assessment done on Resident
1's lower extremities that included pain on palpation and the appearance of the right lower extremity. The
DON stated that if resident care was not documented it meant the resident care was not done. The DON
stated not assessing and monitoring the resident after a COC had the potential for the resident's progress
or decline to be missed. The DON stated the facility failed to provide safe resident care by failing to ensure
Resident 1 was assessed and monitored after a COC. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure
(PnP) titled, Change of Condition Notification, last reviewed on 1/26/2026, the PnP indicated the licensed
nurse will assess the resident's change of condition and document the observations and symptoms. The
PnP indicated a licensed nurse will document the. date, time, and pertinent details of the incident and the
subsequent assessment in the nursing notes. The PnP indicated a licensed nurse will document each shift
for at least seventy-two (72) hours.

taken by mouth used to temporarily relieve minor aches, pain, and reduce fever) 650 milligrams (mg - unit
of measurement) given to Resident 1 in the resident's medication administration record (MAR).These
deficient practices resulted in incomplete and inaccurate information on Resident 1's medical records and
had the potential for delayed medical interventions.Findings: During a review of Resident 1's admission
Record (undated), the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 3/3/2025 with
diagnoses including age-related osteoporosis (a disease that makes bones thin, weak, and brittle,
increasing the risk of fractures [broken bones]), unspecified dementia (a decline in brain function including
memory, language, reasoning, and behavior severe enough to interfere with daily life but the specific type
had not been identified), and essential hypertension (high blood pressure that is not due to another medical
condition). During a review of Resident 1's Physician Orders, dated 3/3/2025, the Physician Orders
indicated Tylenol oral tablet 325 mg, give two tablets every four hours as needed for mild pain or general
discomfort. During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated
