F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents rights to be treated with dignity and respect were honored for one of twenty two sampled residents (Resident 38) when Resident 38's meal was placed in front of her, but not fed to her, for greater than 20 minutes. Findings: A review of Resident 38's Resident Face Sheet, indicated she was admitted to the facility with diagnoses which included Alzheimer's disease (a progressive disease that affects the parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language). A review of Resident 38's Care Plan History, dated 8/1/19, indicated, Problem .Nutritional Status . AT RISK FOR ALTERED NUTRITIONAL STATUS . Requires assistance with feeding . During an observation in the memory care unit (focuses on the care and well-being of individuals with memory issues) dining room, on 2/25/25, at 12:15 PM, Resident 38 was observed seated at a table with a plate of food in front of her. Resident 38 was alert and looking around the room. Licensed staff were observed feeding another resident seated at the table with Resident 38. During an observation on 2/25/25, at 12:31 PM, Resident 38 was observed crying out (to shout or make a loud noise), her plate of food remained in front of her. Licensed staff continued to feed the other resident at the table. During an observation on 2/25/25, at 12:38 PM, Licensed Nurse (LN) 6 began to feed Resident 38 her meal. The temperature of the potatoes on Resident 38's plate registered 110 degrees Fahrenheit (F°) when LN 6 began feeding her. During an interview on 2/25/25, at 1:38 PM, LN 6 stated she had placed Resident 38's tray in front of her on the table because she thought a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) student would be coming to feed the residents. LN 6 further stated when no one came LN 6 started feeding the other resident seated at the table. LN 6 stated Resident 38 may have been wondering why she was not eating too. LN 6 stated it created a dignity issue for Resident 38 when she had to sit and watch the other resident eat. During an interview on 2/26/25, at 1:24 PM, the Director of Nurses (DON) stated it was her expectation that all residents at a table would eat their meals at the same time. The DON further stated it was a dignity issue to not serve residents their meals together. The DON further stated when (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 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of twenty two sampled residents (Resident 64) had their rights related to treatment choices known and protected when a copy of Resident 64's Advance Directive (a legal document indicating resident preference on end-of-life treatment decisions) was not kept in Resident 64's record. This failure had the potential to result in Resident 64's preferences for emergent and end of life treatment to not be followed. Findings: A review of Resident 64's medical record titled, Resident Face Sheet, indicated that Resident 64 was admitted to the facility in early 2024 with diagnoses that included aftercare following right hip joint surgery, fracture of neck of right femur (upper part of the thigh), and need for assistance with personal care. A review of Resident 64's medical record titled, Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment [POLST - a form that contains written medical orders for healthcare professionals regarding specific medical treatments that can or cannot be done at the end of life], dated 1/14/24, indicated Section D that an Advance Directive was discussed with the Resident 64 and that Resident 64 had an Advance Directive. A review of Resident 64's physical chart (paper medical record) at the nurses station, indicated that a copy of Resident 64's POLST was in the chart but no copy of an Advance Directive was found. A review of Resident 64's Electronic Health Record (EHR - information stored in the facility's computer system), indicated that Resident 64's Advance Directive was not uploaded into Resident 64's EHR. During a concurrent interview and record review with the Social Services Director (SSD), on 2/26/25, at 2:34 p.m., the SSD confirmed that there was no copy of an Advance Directive found in Resident 64's EHR. The SSD stated that the Advance Directive copy should have been scanned into Resident 64's EHR. The SSD also confirmed that there was not an Advance Directive copy found in Resident 64's physical chart at the nurses station. The SSD stated that the admitting nurse should have reviewed the POLST information during the admission process and should have ensured that a copy of Resident 64's Advance Directive was obtained if the resident had an Advance Directive. The SSD stated that the importance of having the Advance Directive copy was for the resident's wishes to be known and to determine who would be in charge or appointed if they would not be able to make their own decisions. The SSD added that the POLST and Advance Directive copies should be in the resident's chart because these copies would be taken with the resident if they were transferred out to another facility. During a concurrent interview and record review with the Director of Nursing (DON), on 2/27/25, at 12:47 p.m., the DON confirmed that Resident 64's copy of the Advance Directive was not found in Resident 64's EHR. The DON stated that the copy should be in Resident 64's chart since the POLST form specified that there was an Advance Directive. The DON stated that it was her expectation for the Advance Directive copy to have been in Resident 64's chart at all times. The DON stated that the process involved the admission nurse initiating the POLST form with the resident, responsible party, or (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 555713 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 19 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 555713 B.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few family, during the admission process. The DON stated that it was her expectation to get the POLST form completed as soon as possible. The DON further stated that the facility conducts a 72-hour conference after admission with the admitting nurse, Social Services and Admissions Coordinator and they should have reviewed these forms to ensure that they were completed. The DON stated that the importance of having the Advance Directive in the chart was to provide legal guidance when providing care. The DON added that the POLST and Advance Directive forms would go with the resident whenever they were sent or transferred out of the facility. A review of the facility's document titled, Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment [POLST], dated 10/6/09, indicated .Completing a POLST form with the resident: 1. If the resident or representative chooses to complete a POLST form .Discussion will include the resident's Advance Directive (if done) or other statements the resident has made regarding their wishes for end of life care and treatments . A review of the facility's document titled, Advance Directives, dated 8/13/08, indicated .1. On admission, each resident is asked if they have completed an Advance Health Care Directive .a.

F 0583 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 residents rights of privacy and confidentiality were honored for one of twenty two sampled residents (Resident 12) when Resident 12's incontinence (lacking control of bowel and bladder) care needs were posted in public view in his room. Residents Affected - Few Findings: A review of Resident 12's Resident Face Sheet, indicated, he was admitted to the facility with diagnoses which included urinary incontinence (inability to control urination/bladder). During an observation in Resident 12's bedroom on 2/26/25, at 9:46 AM, a handwritten sign and two photos were observed posted on Resident 12's bathroom door facing out into the room. The sign indicated, .[Resident 12's] Cath Bag [urine collection bag] .AM .Remove old condom tip [condom catheter used to direct urine to a collection bag] with Adhesive remover wipe .Use NoSting Prep [skin protectant] to place new condom tip .attach leg bag to top of calf and above ankle .PM .Remove old condom tip with Adhesive remover wipe/spray .attach to 2000ml [milliliter] bag . The photos included pictures of the condom catheter packages, the wipes, and the drainage bags to attach to the catheters. During a concurrent interview and document review (sign and photos) in Resident 12's room, on 2/26/25, at 10:24 AM, licensed nurse (LN) 6 stated the information for Resident 12's condom catheter was posted on the bathroom door to inform staff of which supplies to use. LN 6 further stated, for privacy, the documents could have been posted inside the bathroom door. During a concurrent interview and document review (sign and photos) in Resident 12's room, on 2/26/25, at 1:28 PM, the Director of Nurses (DON) stated any sign posted in a resident's room with personal information should be covered with a blank page. The DON further stated not covering the postings created a dignity issue for Resident 12.

F 0604 Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of twenty two sampled residents (Resident 12) was free from physical restraint when Resident 12 was unable to independently unbuckle the self-release belt he wore while seated in his wheelchair. Residents Affected - Few This failure had the potential for Resident 12 to experience a lack in freedom of movement, injury, and psychosocial distress. Findings: A review of Resident 12's Resident Face Sheet, indicated he was admitted to the facility with diagnoses which included Parkinsonism (a progressive disease of the nervous system marked by tremor, muscle rigidity, and slow imprecise movement) and unspecified dementia (condition that causes a decline in memory, thinking, reasoning, and problem solving). A review of Resident 12's Minimum Data Set (MDS, federally mandated resident assessment and screening tool) Section C - Cognitive Patterns, dated 1/4/25, indicated Resident 12's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS, cognitive screening test, a score of 0-7 suggests a severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 suggests moderate cognitive impairment, 13-15 suggests intact cognitive response) score was 7. A review of Resident 12's MDS Section GG-Functional Abilities, dated 1/4/25, indicated Resident 12 required, .Partial moderate assistance-Helper does LESS THAN HALF the effort . for the categories of eating and upper body dressing. A review of Resident 12's Restraint/Adaptive Equipment Use Assessment, dated, 11/13/24, indicated, .resident requested a self release belt for when he's up in chair md (medical doctor) notified md approved observation complete. patient educated on how to use the belt and patient demonstrated how to release belt on his own . A review of Resident 12's Care Plan History, dated 11/13/24, indicated, .Problem .Self release belt when up in wheelchair related to involuntary movement related to his disease process .Approach .resident is able to self release belt . During an observation on 2/26/25, at 10:15 AM, Resident 12 was observed in his room seated in his wheelchair. When asked to demonstrate how his self-release belt was unbuckled, Resident 12 reached down to his belt, grasped the sides of the buckle and wiggled it up and down, he tried to pull on the buckle and stated, I can't. During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/26/25, at 10:25 AM, Licensed Nurse (LN) 6, stated Resident 12 could remove his belt independently. LN 6 prompted Resident 12 to open the belt buckle, Resident 12 tried but was unable. LN 6 prompted him a few more times and then opened the buckle for him. LN 6 confirmed Resident 12 was unable to release the belt buckle independently. During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/25, at 2:01 PM, the MDS Coordinator (MDSC) stated Resident 12 had Parkinson's disease which affected his cognition and mobility.

F 0604 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few restraint. The MDSC confirmed Resident 12's quarterly MDS was completed in January and Resident 12 was not reassessed for the use of the self-release belt at that time but should have been. The MDSC stated it was important for the assessment to have been completed because his condition could change. A review of Resident 12's Restraint/Adaptive Equipment Use Assessment, dated, 2/26/25, indicated, .reassessment done on self release belt while in wheelchair, resident was unable to pull the self release belt open without cueing and further instruction .

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of twenty two sampled residents (Resident 42), had a care plan (a formal process that identifies existing needs and recognizes potential needs or risks) developed to address Resident 42's oxygen needs and use. This failure potentially contributed to Resident 42 not receiving the correct rate of oxygen (liters per minute-LPM. A unit of measure for oxygen delivery). Findings: During a concurrent observation and record review, on 2/26/25 at 10:03 AM in Resident 42's room, Licensed Nurse (LN) 6 confirmed Resident 42 was receiving oxygen at a rate of 2.5 LPM. LN 6 reviewed Resident 42's physician orders and confirmed Resident 42 should have been receiving oxygen at a rate of 4 LPM, continuously. During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/25 at 12:09 PM, with LN 6, Resident 42's care plans were reviewed. LN 6 stated she was unable to locate an oxygen use care plan for Resident 42. LN 6 confirmed a care plan should have been created for Resident 42's oxygen needs and use. LN 6 further stated a care plan could have prevented Resident 42 from receiving an incorrect rate of oxygen. LN 6 explained the importance of a care plan was to have interventions in place as a guide for nurses to follow which helped them understand the plan of care. During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/25 at 1:41 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed an oxygen use care plan was never created for Resident 42. The DON stated a care plan was important because it gave the nurses interventions to look out for and a guide to follow. The DON further explained the risk to Resident 42 was a lower amount of oxygen being administered which could lead to shortness of breath, or other complications. A review of a facility provided document for Resident 42 titled, General Order dated 7/23/2024, indicated, .Order Description: OXYGEN AT 4L/MIN [LPM] .CONTINUOUS .Order Class: Physician Order .

F 0690 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure appropriate urinary catheter (a flexible tube inserted into the bladder used to drain urine) care and services were provided for one of two residents (Resident 71) with urinary catheters in a sample of 22 residents when: 1. Resident 71's urinary catheter bag (a device that attaches to the end of the tube to collect urine) was on the floor; and, 2. Resident 71's urinary catheter bag did not have a dignity cover (a cover that helps maintain the dignity of people who use catheters). These failures had the potential to affect Resident 71's sense of self-worth and self-esteem and placed Resident 71, and others in the facility, at risk for adverse medical outcomes. (When a drainage bag on the floor touches or comes into contact with anything other than a clean surface, that item becomes contaminated, which could increase the chances of an infection for anyone that comes into contact with the contaminated item.) Findings: A review of Resident 71's Resident Face Sheet, indicated Resident 71 was admitted to the facility with multiple diagnoses including sepsis (a serious condition in which the body responds improperly to an infection) and bilateral hydronephrosis (a condition where both kidneys become enlarged due to a buildup of urine). During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/25/25, at 4:47 PM, with Licensed Nurse (LN) 1 in Resident 71's room, LN 1 confirmed Resident 71 was lying in bed with his urinary catheter bag on the floor and the bag did not have a dignity cover. LN 1 stated that the catheter bag should be off the floor and should be covered. LN 1 added, there was a risk for contamination if the urinary catheter bag was left on the floor. LN 1 further stated having a dignity bag at all times would protect the resident's privacy and dignity. During an interview on 2/27/25, at 1:57 PM, with LN 2, LN 2 stated that the urinary catheter bag should be placed below the bladder and attached to the bedrail when a resident was in bed for infection control prevention. LN 2 further stated the urinary catheter bag should have a dignity cover to protect the resident's privacy. During an interview on 2/28/25, at 8:43 AM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that her expectation for the staff was to ensure the urinary catheter bags were off the floor and with a dignity cover at all times. The DON stated that the urinary catheter bag should not be on the floor because of a potential infection control risk. The DON added that the urinary catheter bag should be covered to protect the resident's dignity and privacy.

F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure respiratory care provided was consistent with professional standards of practice for 1 of 8 residents who received oxygen at the facility (Resident 42) when Resident 42's oxygen order was not followed. Residents Affected - Few This failure placed Resident 42 at risk for respiratory distress and inadequate treatment. Findings: During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/26/25 at 10:03 AM, with Licensed Nurse (LN) 6 in Resident 42's room, Resident 42 was observed receiving oxygen via nasal cannula (NC -a small flexible tube that contains two open prongs intended to sit inside the nostrils). LN 6 observed and confirmed the oxygen concentrator (a device that delivers oxygen) was on and running at 2.5 liters per minute (LPM, a unit of measure for oxygen delivery). During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/25 at 10:05 AM, LN 6 reviewed Resident 42's current physician order for oxygen. LN 6 stated the physician's order for oxygen was 4 LPM. LN 6 confirmed the oxygen order was not being followed as prescribed by the physician. LN 6 stated the risk to the resident for not receiving the correct dose was hypoxia (a condition where there is not enough supply of oxygen to the body's tissue). During an interview on 2/26/25 at 1:41 PM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON confirmed the ordered amount of oxygen for Resident 42 was 4 LPM continuously. The DON stated the risk to the resident was Resident 42 could desaturate (to have low blood oxygen levels) or become short of breath. The DON explained it was important to follow the physician prescribed orders.
