Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that one out of three sampled
residents (Resident 10) was free from physical restraint by failing to ensure the use of bed siderails and
geriatric chair with lap tray informed consent was completed per individualized assessment.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice violated resident's right to be treated with respect and dignity with the use of physical
restraints.
Findings:
During a record review of the admission Record indicated Resident 10 was originally admitted to the facility
on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnosis including encephalopathy (a disease in which the
functioning of the brain is affected by some agent or condition-such as viral infection or toxins in the blood),
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing) and
unspecified dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities).
During a record review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - resident assessment tool) dated 4/22/2025,
indicated Resident 10's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding)
skills for daily decisions were severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 10 required moderate
assistance to supervision from staff for activities of daily living (ADLs- routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During a record review of Resident 10's Order Summary Report indicated:
i. As of 5/4/2025, there was no physician order for the use of bed siderails.
ii. Physician's order dated 4/18/2025 indicated, Up on geriatric chair (geri-chair - a large, padded chair that
is designed to help people with limited mobility) for mobility issues due to difficulty seating on upright
positioned.
During a record review of Resident 10's Medical Record as of 5/4/2025, there was no Informed Consent for
the use of bed siderails and geri-chair with lap tray.
During a record review of Resident 10's Care Plan (CP) as 5/4/2025, indicated there are no CP developed
for the use of bed siderails.
During a review of Resident 10's Physical Restraint Assessment, dated 4/18/2025, it indicated that,

Summary: Geri-chair with a tray is recommended for this time, because of poor safety judgement due to
inability to consider lack of independence, disorientation and impaired cognition.
During the initial tour of the facility and observation of Resident 10 on 5/2/2025 at 5:55 p.m., Resident 10
was observed sitting on a geri-chair with a lap tray in the hallway by herself. Resident 10 was observed
talking noncoherently.
During an observation of Resident 10 on 5/3/2025 at 10:05 a.m., Resident 10 was sitting on a geri-chair ( is
a large padded chairs with wheeled bases, and are designed to assist seniors with limited mobility) with a
lap tray on in the hallway, right leg was dangling on the side, and no staff was observed assisting Resident
10. Resident 10 appeared confused and was talking incoherently to herself.
During an observation of Resident 10 on 5/4/2025 at 9:10 a.m., Resident 10 was observed lying on bed
with a bed siderails up.
During a concurrent observation and interview with Registered Nurse (RN) 1 on 5/4/2025 at 9:26 a.m., RN
1 observed Resident 10 in the room, lying on a bed with a bed side rails up. RN 1 stated, there should be
an order and a Care Plan for the use of bed siderails. RN 1 further stated, Resident 1 also uses a geri-chair
with a lap tray on to get her up on bed, but it should be used for mobility. RN 1 stated the side rails and
geri-chair with lap tray may cause harm to Resident 10 if it's being used in a wrong way like restricting
resident's movement. RN 1 stated, an informed consent must be obtain from the resident and/or resident's
representative for any device used that may restrict resident's mobility.
During a concurrent interview and record review with Director of Nursing (DON) on 5/4/2025 at 3:50 p.m.,
DON reviewed Resident 10's Physical Restraint Assessment and stated, they (facility) are not using any
restraints to Resident 10. DON stated the geri-chair with lap tray are to be used for mobility and the
assessment for Physical Restraint was not properly documented. DON stated, there must be an informed
consent for the use of geri-chair with laptray and bed siderails. DON stated, the use of these devices
restricts resident's movement.
During a record review of the facility policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Use of Restraints, revised on
8/2024, the P&P indicated, If the resident cannot remove a device in the same manner in which the staff
applied it given that resident's physical condition (i.e., side rails are put back down, rather than climbed
over), and this restricts his/her typical ability to change position or place, that device is considered a
restraint . Practices that inappropriately utilize equipment to prevent resident mobility are considered
restraints and are not permitted, including: a. Using bedrails to keep a resident from voluntarily getting out
of bed as opposed to enhancing mobility while in bed; b. Tucking sheets so tightly that a bed-bound resident
cannot move; c. Placing a resident in a chair that prevents the resident from rising; and d. Placing a resident
who uses a wheelchair so close to the wall that the wall prevents the resident from rising .
Restraints shall only be used upon the written order of a physician and after obtaining consent from the
resident and/or representative (sponsor). The order shall include the following: a. The specific reason for the
restraint (as it relates to the resident's medical symptom); b. How the restraint will be used to benefit the
resident's medical symptom; and c. The type of restraint, and period of time for the use of the restraint .
Treatment restraints may be used for the protection of the resident during treatment and diagnostic
procedures if the resident and/or representative have consented to the treatment or procedure and the use
of treatment restraints. Treatment restraints shall be

Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited
to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, and interview, the facility failed to maintain a clean, odor-free, well-kept environment for one of
five sampled residents (Resident 1), by failing to ensure the resident's room and adjacent hallway were
odor free.
This failure resulted in a foul-smelling environment in Resident 1's room and the adjacent hallway.
Findings:
During a record review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 1 on
7/23/2024 and Resident 1 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including anxiety (a
feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often accompanied by physical symptoms like a rapid heartbeat or
shortness of breath), dementia (loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that
are severe enough), and depressive disorder (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness
and loss of interest)
During a record review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated
4/24/2025, indicated Resident 1 had cognitive impairment (when a person has trouble remembering,
learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life). The MDS indicated
Resident 1 was dependent on staff for activities of daily living (ADL - routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During an observation on 5/3/3035, at 7:46 A.M., in Resident 1's room and adjacent hallway, a foul odor of
urine was perceived by two surveyors.
During a concurrent observation, and interview on 5/3/2035, at 7:50 A.M., with Certified Nursing Assistant
(CNA) 4, in Resident 1's room, a foul-smelling urine odor was perceived and Resident 1's beddings were
wet. CNA 4 stated that the foul-smelling odor was come from Resident 1, it was the smell of urine, and that
when changing Resident 1, Resident 1's draw sheet (a special sheet placed on top of a bed's fitted sheet to
make it easier to move someone who is having trouble moving themselves), under pad (using an absorbent
pad, also called an under pad or chux, to protect bedding from moisture and accidents, especially related to
incontinence) and Resident 1's pants were wet. CNA 4 stated that the strong foul-smelling odor of urine
may have been strong because Resident 1 was not changed. CNA 4 stated residents need to be changed
every two hours because if not done, this may lead to a urinary tract infection (UTI - an infection in the
bladder/urinary tract) skin opening or wounds.
During an interview on 5/4/2025, at 6:56 P.M., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that the
facility needs to maintain a home-like environment with comfort, space and pleasant smell that does not
bother the residents, staff and visitors
During a record review of the facility policy and procedure (P&P) titled Homelike Environment revised
2/2024, indicated, Residents are provided with a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment and
encouraged to use theirpersonal belongings to the extent possible.

Provide the required documentation or notification related to the resident's needs, appeal rights, or
bed-hold policies.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents' notice of proposed
transfer/discharge notification was sent to the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman (public
advocate) on a timely manner for one of three sampled discharged residents reviewed (Resident 39) as
indicated in the facility's policy.
This deficient practice had the potential to deny Resident 39's protection from being inappropriately
discharged .
Findings:
During a record review of the admission Record, Resident 39 was admitted to the facility 11/18/2024 with
diagnoses including epilepsy (a disorder in which nerve cell activity in the brain is disturbed causing
seizures), chronic pancreatitis (a long-lasting inflammation of the pancreas, a gland behind the stomach
that helps with digestion and regulates blood sugar), and muscle weakness (weakening, shrinking, and loss
of muscle).
During a record review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 11/24/2025,
indicated Resident 39's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding)
skills for daily decisions were moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 39 required moderate
assistance to supervision from staff for activities of daily living (ADLs- routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During a record review of Resident 39's Discharge Summary Plan of Care, dated 2/11/2025, it indicated,
Resident 39 was discharged at an Assisted Living Facility (ALF - provides housing and personal care
services for individuals who need help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and eating, but don't require
the 24-hour medical care of a nursing home) on 2/11/2025.
During a record review of Resident 39's Notice of Proposed Transfer/Discharge indicated the notification
was sent to Ombudsman via facsimile transmission dated 5/4/2025.
During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 5/4/2025 at 1:15 p.m., DON stated, Resident
39's discharge notification was sent today (5/4/2025) via fax to the Ombudsman's office. DON stated that
they have 30 days to send the notification to the Ombudsman after discharge. DON then reviewed the
policies and procedure (P&P) and stated, the written notifications to the Ombudsman and
residents/resident's representative shall be given with an advance 30-day written notice of an impending
transfer or discharge. DON further stated, Ombudsman must be given an advance notice so that they may
be able to assist residents if they don't agree with the discharge planning.
During a record review of the facility policy and procedures (P&P) titled, Transfer or Discharge Notice,
reviewed/revised on 3/20/2025, the P&P indicated, Our facility shall provide a resident and/or the resident's
representative (sponsor) with a 30-day written notice of an impending transfer or discharge . A copy of the
notice will be sent to the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman.

Cross Reference F658
Findings:
During a record review of the admission Record indicated Resident 12 was originally admitted to the facility
4/1/2021 and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including chronic pulmonary edema (a condition caused
by excess fluids in the lungs usually caused by a heart condition), atrial fibrillation (afib- an irregular and
very rapid heart rhythm that and can lead blood clots in the heart) and anxiety disorder (a mental health
disorder characterized by feelings of worry, anxiety or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one's
daily activities).
During a record review of the MDS dated [DATE], Resident 12's cognitive (mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decisions were severely impaired. The MDS
indicated Resident 12 had an active diagnosis of schizophrenia (a mental illness that is characterized by
disturbances in thought).
During an interview and observation of Resident 12 on 5/2/2025 at 6:12 p.m., Resident 12 stated, she is
doing well and likes participating in the Activity room. Resident 12 appeared calm, compliant with care and
followed direction.
During an interview with Minimum Data Set Nurse (MDSN) on 5/4/2025 at 10:36 a.m., MDSN stated MDSN
mistakenly quoted Resident 12's MDS assessment with a diagnosis of schizophrenia but they don't have all
documentation that supports the diagnosis according to DSM-V (officially known as the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition - a book used by mental health professionals to
diagnose and classify mental health disorders). MDSN further stated, Resident 12 is cooperative and does
not show any hallucinations, and delusions.
During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 5/4/2025 at 3:58 p.m., DON stated, Resident
12's needs to meet all criteria before they quote them with a schizophrenia diagnosis on the MDS. DON
stated, they need to have a medical professional that will provide the supporting documents.
During a record review of the facility policy and procedures (P&P), titled, Resident Assessment Instrument,
revised 3/2025, the P&P indicated, The resident assessment coordinator is responsible for ensuring that
the interdisciplinary team conducts timely and appropriate resident assessments and reviews according to
the following requirements . The interdisciplinary team uses the MDS form currently mandated by federal
and state regulations to conduct the resident assessment. Other assessment forms may be used in addition
to the MDS form.

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that a Pre-admission Screening Resident Review
level II (a detailed assessment that determines if someone with a mental illness [like serious mental illness,
intellectual disability, or related conditions] needs specialized services and the most appropriate place to
receive them) was obtained and maintained in the residents chart for two of three sampled residents
(Residents 1 and 25).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to negatively affect the appropriate care and services rendered to
Residents. 1 and 25
Findings:
During a record review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 1 on
7/23/2024 and Resident 1 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including anxiety (a
feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often accompanied by physical symptoms like a rapid heartbeat or
shortness of breath), dementia (loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that
are severe enough), and depressive disorder (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness
and loss of interest)
During a record review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated
4/24/2025, indicated Resident 1 had cognitive impairment (when a person has trouble remembering,
learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life). The MDS indicated
Resident 1 was dependent on staff for activities of daily living (ADL - routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During a concurrent interview and record review, on 5/4/2025, at 10:32 A.M., with the Minimal Data Set
Nurse (MDSN) nurse, Resident 1's PASARR level I and chart were reviewed. The PASARR level I dated
11/11/2024, indicated Resident I was positive for PASARR level I and required to have an evaluation for
PASARR level II. The MDS nurse stated that the facility process for a PASARR level II is that the PASARR
level II office will call within three days for a follow up however, it they do not call, then the facility has to
follow up. The MDSN stated that there was no documented evidence that the PASARR level II office called
or that the facility made a follow up with the PASARR level II office. The MDSN stated that the facility should
have followed up with the PASARR level II off to ensure that Resident 1's care was customized to the
resident so that Resident 1 can be given care that Resident 1 is supposed to be receiving.
During a record review of Resident 25's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 25 on
6/29/2023 and readmitted Resident 25 on 4/8/2025 with diagnoses including hypertension (HTN-high blood
pressure), anxiety (a feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often accompanied by physical symptoms like a rapid
heartbeat or shortness of breath), and major depressive disorder (a mood disorder that causes a persistent
feeling of sadness and loss of interest)

observation, interview, and record review, facility failed to ensure that the resident was safe during mobility
using a geri chair (a large, padded, often wheeled chair designed to help seniors or individuals with limited
mobility) for one of two sampled residents (Resident 25).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to cause harm/injury and possible hospitalization for Resident 25.
Cross Reference F689
Findings:
During a record review of Resident 25's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 25 on
6/29/2023 and Resident 25 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]with diagnoses including hypertension
(HTN-high blood pressure), anxiety (a feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often accompanied by physical
symptoms like a rapid heartbeat or shortness of breath), and major depressive disorder (a mood disorder
that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest)
During a record review of Resident 25's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated
4/14/2025, indicated Resident 25 had cognitive impairment (when a person has trouble remembering,
learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life). The MDS indicated
Resident 25 was dependent on staff for activities of daily living (ADL - routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During an observation on 5/2/2035, at 6:49 P.M., in Resident 25's room, certified nursing assistant (CNA) 5
was pushing Resident 25 in a geri chair with Resident 25's feet dragging on the floor and Resident 25's
head partially on the head rest and midair.
During a concurrent observation, and interview on 5/2/3035, at 6:51 P.M., with CNA 5, in Resident 25's
room, CNA 5 stated that Resident 25's feet were dragging on the floor and Resident 25's head was not
comfortable, not fully resting on the chair on one side. CNA 5 stated she was going to reposition Resident
25 so that Resident 25's feet were not dragging on the floor and Resident 25 is aligned in the chair with the
head resting on the chair completely. CNA 5 stated she was repositioning Resident 25 because Resident
25's position was not good and Resident 25 may get hurt and the feet may get swollen.
During an interview on 5/4/2025, at 6:47 P.M., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that
residents need to be properly positioned every two hours and as needed or as indicated when in the geri
chair. The resident's feet should be completely off the ground, resident should be propped up, straight
alignment and head of the resident resting on the back of the chair for comfort and to prevent resident

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, facility failed to ensure that the resident's feet did drag on the
floor during mobility using a geri chair (a large, padded, often wheeled chair designed to help seniors or
individuals with limited mobility) for one of two sampled residents (Resident 25).
This deficient practice had the potential to cause harm/injury and possible hospitalization for Resident 25.
Cross Reference F684
Findings:
During a record review of Resident 25's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 25 on
6/29/2023 and Resident 25 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]with diagnoses including hypertension
(HTN-high blood pressure), anxiety (a feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often accompanied by physical
symptoms like a rapid heartbeat or shortness of breath), and major depressive disorder (a mood disorder
that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest)
During a record review of Resident 25's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated
4/14/2025, indicated Resident 25 had cognitive impairment (when a person has trouble remembering,
learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life). The MDS indicated
Resident 25 was dependent on staff for activities of daily living (ADL - routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During an observation on 5/2/2035, at 6:49 P.M., in Resident 25's room, certified nursing assistant (CNA) 5
was pushing Resident 25 in a geri chair with Resident 25's feet dragging on the floor and Resident 25's
head partially on the head rest and midair.
During a concurrent observation, and interview on 5/2/3035, at 6:51 P.M., with CNA 5, in Resident 25's
room, CNA 5 stated that Resident 25's feet were dragging on the floor and Resident 25's head was not
comfortable, not fully resting on the chair on one side. CNA 5 stated she was going to reposition Resident
25 so that Resident 25's feet were not dragging on the floor and Resident 25 is aligned in the chair with the
head resting on the chair completely. CNA 5 stated she was repositioning Resident 25 because Resident
25's position was not good and Resident 25 may get hurt and the feet may get swollen.
During an interview on 5/4/2025, at 6:47 P.M., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that
residents need to be properly positioned every two hours and as needed or as indicated when in the geri
chair. The resident's feet should be completely off the ground, resident should be propped up, straight
alignment and head of the resident resting on the back of the chair for comfort and to prevent resident
getting caught up in the geri chair and getting injured.
During a record review of the facility's Policy and Procedures (P&P) titled, Safety and Supervision of
Residents, revised 7/2024, indicated, Our facility strives to make the environment as free from accident
hazards as possible. Resident safety and supervision and assistance to prevent accidents are facility-wide

Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that the nursing staff met the skills and
staff competency evaluation requirements.
Residents Affected - Some
This deficient practice had the potential for knowledge, training, and certification deficit among the nursing
staff, leading to inadequate or delayed care for the residents.
Findings:
During a concurrent interview and record review, on 5/4/2025, at 9:06 A.M., with the Director of Staff
Development (DSD), the DSD, the facility's employee files were reviewed. The employee files indicated that
four of five employee files reviewed did not have documented proof of annual competency training for the
employees. The DSD stated employee competency training was done upon hire and annually thereafter to
assess the staff's competency when providing care to the residents, if the staff need assistance or
improvement in their skill. DSD stated if competency training is not done, the facility staff will not be
assessed in the way their skills are done when providing resident care in areas including but not limited to
activities of daily living (ADL), medication administration and intravenous infusion. The DSD stated lack of
skills competency training may lead to a decline in the way care is provided to the residents.
During an interview on 5/4/2025, at 6:38 P.M., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated
employee competencies are about ensuring that nursing staff are assessed in their skills when it comes to
resident care, this is done to ensure that the staff are on par with how they perform their skills, the staff are
upto date and are competent to perform their job duties. The DON stated that the employee competency
training is supposed to be done annually and as needed. The employee's skill training process is that the
facility utilizes a form that guides the facility on what skills that need to be checked for the facility nursing
staff, and needed to be completed with the check mark, may be a narrative note to state whether the
employee met or did not meet the required skills assessment. The DON stated if competency training is not
done, there may be inaccuracies and delays in the care of the residents.
During a record review of the facility policy and procedures (P&P), titled Competency of Nursing Staff,
revised 3/2025, indicated, Policy statement:
l. All nursing staff must meet the specific competency requirements of their respective licensure and
certification requirements defined by state law.
