resident would be that side effects could have been missed or why they had taken the medication. She
stated Resident #315's family was aware of the medication administered for behaviors but had no consent
for this one.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 2:00 PM, Resident #315's representative stated he had not signed
any consents or gave a verbal consent for this medication. He stated he knew of the medication and was
accepting of it being provided to this resident but had not known there needed to be a consent signed. He
stated the resident has been on this medication before entering the facility and was asked to sign the
consent this day of 07/10/2024.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 2:42 PM, the DON stated they had gotten a verbal consent from the
representative and should have been in the residents' EMR. She stated the facility was to obtain consents
for everything and did not know why this one was missed. The DON stated the admitting nurse monitors the
consents as she was responsible for the admitting paperwork to be completed. She stated Resident #315's
representative lived out of state and there would have been no way for him to sign the consent. The DON
stated it was partly her fault as she had only gotten verbal consents. She stated she did not think there was
a negative impact to Resident #315 since the Resident Representative was aware. She stated a negative
effect on the resident were that if it wasn't the correct dose there could have been different behaviors. The
DON stated it was herself as well as the ADMN give the consent trainings to the admission staff and should
have done a checklist upon admission. She stated the failure was not having the communication between
staff with her expectations to have the consents completed on admission. The DON stated there was no
consents policy to provide.

identified problem areas; Incorporate risk factors associated with identified problems; Build on the resident's
strengths; Reflect the resident's expressed wishes regarding care and treatment goals . Care plan
interventions are designed after careful consideration of the relationship between the resident's problem
areas and their causes. When possible, interventions address the underlying source(s) of the problem
area(s), rather than addressing only symptoms or triggers. It is recognized that care planning individual
symptoms or Care Area Triggers in isolation may have little, if any, benefit for the resident. Identifying
problem areas and their causes and developing interventions that are targeted and meaningful to the
resident are interdisciplinary processes that require careful data gathering, proper sequencing of events
and complex clinical decision making. No single

brush and a steel wool cleaning pad were stored in a cabinet on Hall 300 that was locked and not
accessible to the residents on Hall 300.
The facility failed to ensure a bottle of shaving cream, a tube of antifungal powder, a tub of zinc oxide, body
lotion, deodorant bottles, and a bottle of shampoo/body wash were stored in a locked shower room and not
accessible to the residents on Hall 400.
This failure could place residents at risk of injury due to hazardous chemicals.
Findings include:
During an observation on 07/08/2024 at 11:48 AM, an unlocked cabinet in the Hall 300 kitchen contained
the following items: a spray bottle of grill and oven cleaner, a bottle of rubbing alcohol; a wire metal brush

in the kitchen on Hall 300. LVN A stated the kitchen was only used to serve food. LVN A stated the kitchen
staff were responsible for monitoring items in the Hall 300 kitchen. LVN A stated chemicals should have
been stored where residents were not able to have access.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:15 PM, the ADON stated cleaning chemicals, rubbing alcohol,
shampoo, lotions, and zinc oxide cream should not have been stored where residents could have been able
to ingest them. The ADON stated all staff should have been monitoring and making sure hazardous items
were locked where residents were not able to get to them. The ADON stated if a resident were to eat or
drink hazardous materials it could have caused serious harm.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 7:07 PM, the ADMN stated chemicals should not have been stored in
a location where residents were able to access them. The ADMN stated the shower rooms should have
been locked when not in use. The ADMN stated residents could have had a hazardous effect if they were to
eat or drink something they were not supposed to. The ADMN stated what led to the failure was staff were
not following their policies and procedures .
Record review of facility policy titled, Environmental Services Safety Procedures dated 01/01/2023 revealed
Staff will ensure equipment (e.g., cords, ladders, or chemicals) is properly stored and not left unattended in
areas that are accessible to residents. When not in use, equipment will be stored in a locking closet,

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based on interviews, and record review the facility failed to have sufficient nursing staff to provide nursing
and related services to assure resident safety and attain or maintain the highest practicable physical,
mental, and psychosocial well-being of each resident as determined by considering the number, acuity, and
diagnoses of the facility's resident population in accordance with the facility assessment for 7 of 10 days

During a confidential interview on 07/09/2024 at 3:30 PM the confidential interview stated they were happy
that State was in the facility as they had asked upper management for more staff as they were being told
that the CNA's were to clean the MCU while working their shift. Confidential interview stated HK would go
clean only on Fridays. Confidential interview stated HK had not always cleaned on Fridays and that was
why it smelled of urine. Confidential interview stated it took them away from resident care and was unable
to keep up with both jobs.
During an interview on 07/09/2024 at 4:00 PM the HK Supervisor stated her HK staff stayed mostly on the
1-3 halls M-F and there was no specific day for those halls to be cleaned. She stated the MCU was
designated to be cleaned only on Fridays, but at times had not been cleaned on a weekly basis because
the CNA's were to clean that hallway. The HK Supervisor stated she had spoken to ADMN about getting
more staff for HK, but no staff had been hired. She stated she only had 3 HK all day on Fridays and the
aides do all the cleaning on hall 4 (MCU) due to not having enough HK staff to help clean there. The HK
Supervisor stated she did not keep a cleaning log for the MCU. The HK supervisor stated she was
responsible for monitoring Hall 4 (MCU). Her expectations were to have someone to help check the laundry
and to check for any chemicals, clear the hallways and rooms for trash and dirty dishes. She stated the
negative impact for the MCU residents were, they could not realize something was dirty because of their
conditions and it was not acceptable for them to be in this environment. The HK Supervisor stated there
was sometimes only one aide on the MCU, and it would be hard to watch the residents and keep it clean
the way it was supposed to be.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:41 PM the DON stated her expectation was for staffing to be at
corporate PPD rate. The DON stated the PPD rate was 2.85 and was only hours for direct care staff. The
DON stated not meeting the PPD could affect residents by the staff could have had a slower response time.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 7:07 PM the ADMN stated her expectation was to staff the building
with direct care staff at the PPD rate set by corporate. The ADMN stated the PPD rate was 2.85, and the
PPD hours were determined by multiplying the rate (2.85) by the census and that would give you the
number of hours needed. The ADMN stated the DON and herself were responsible to monitor staffing. The
ADMN stated not meeting the PPD hours could have affected the residents by resident care could have
been delayed. The ADMN stated she thought what led to the failure was the retention of staff and difficulty
of staffing.
Record review of facility policy titled, Hours of Work dated December 2009 revealed: facility has established
hours of work in accordance with resident needs and current regulations governing our facility's staffing
requirements.

The facility failed to provide evidence that a Registered Nurse (RN) worked 8 consecutive hours a day,
seven days a week on 01/01/2024, 01/07/2024, 01/13/2024, 01/14/2024, 01/27/2024, 01/28/2024,

03/03/2024.
This failure placed the residents at risk for not having decisions made that would have required an RN to
make in the management of the residents' healthcare needs and in managing and monitoring of the direct
care staff.
Findings included:
Review of facility's Direct Care Staff Daily Report from 01/01/2024 to 01/31/2024 revealed on 01/01/2024,
01/07/2024, 01/13/2024, 01/14/2024, 01/27/2024 , 01/28/2024, 02/03/2024, 02/04/2024, 02/10/2024,
02/11/2024, 02/17/2024, 02/24/2024, 02/25/2024, 03/02/2024 and 03/03/2024 there was no evidence of
RN coverage.
During an interview on 07/09/2024 at 3:30 PM, HR stated she had been responsible for scheduling. HR
stated she had a staff rotation in place where an RN would be scheduled daily. HR stated when one RN
needed time off she did not think about needing to have an RN cover.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:41 PM, the DON stated she was hired to be the DON in January of
2024. The DON stated when she started, HR was scheduling nursing staff, and within the last few weeks
she had taken over the responsibility. The DON stated when she started there was a schedule in place that
had an RN scheduled each day. The DON stated what led to the failure was HR and herself not able to find
RN coverage if one of the RNs scheduled had taken time off. The DON did not think there was a negative
effect to residents because the DON and ADON were always on call and able to come in or answer
questions over the phone.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 7:07 PM, the ADMN stated the expectation was to have 8 hours of
continuous RN coverage daily per federal guidelines. The ADMN stated the facility did not have a policy for
RN daily coverage. The ADMN stated when she started, 4 weeks ago, she realized there was not a system
to track RN coverage. The ADMN stated the HR person had been doing the scheduling prior to her starting
at the facility. The ADMN stated she and the DON had taken the responsibly of monitoring RN coverage.
The ADMN stated she did not think having missed RN coverage had a negative effect to the residents
because they had LVN coverage, and staff had access to the DON and ADON. The ADMN stated she
thought what led to the failure was the retention of staff and challenge of staffing.
Record review of facility policy titled, Hours of Work dated December 2009 revealed: facility has established
hours of work in accordance with resident needs and current regulations governing our facility's staffing
requirements.

or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that each resident received
food that is palatable, attractive, and at a safe and appetizing temperature for 1 of 2 lunch meals tested for
nutritive value, flavor, and appearance:
Residents Affected - Some
The facility failed to provide palatable food served at an appetizing temperature to residents, during lunch
on 07/08/2024.
There were no temperatures logged for the morning meal of 07/08/2024.
This failure could affect the residents who ate food from the facility kitchen by placing them at risk of poor
food intake and/or dissatisfaction of the meals served.
The findings included:
During observation on 07/08/2024 at 11:33 AM of the temperature logbook, the breakfast temperature were
not logged.
During observation on 07/08/2024 at 11:34 AM, the [NAME] had not temped the food before plating began.

1.
pureed broccoli rice at 119 degrees
2.
mechanical chicken at 117 degrees
3.
pureed chicken at 132 degrees
4.
pureed green beans 130 degrees
During an interview on 07/08/2024 at 11:45 AM, the DM stated the food temperatures were not hot enough.
The DM stated temperatures should have been done prior to plating. She stated she monitored the dietary
staff and food temperatures prior to serving residents. She stated since they were not up to correct
temperatures it would have to be warmed up. She stated the dietary staff have had training, but it was on a
one-to-one verbal training and had not documented them.
During an interview on 07/08/2024 at 11:49 AM, the Dietary [NAME] stated she did not temp the food
because they were running behind with serving. She stated she was not the morning cook, but the staff
should have recorded them in the logbook if they had been done. She stated the staff have one to one
in-service with the DM. She stated if the food was too cold, residents may not have eaten it, with that
leading to weight loss.

Residents Affected - Some
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:30 PM, the ADMN stated all food temperatures should have been
taken and food kept at proper temperatures before serving residents. She stated in not doing so the
negative impact for residents could have caused bacteria to build with residents possibly getting a food
borne illness. She stated the failure was with the cook and not temping the food, and the staff should never
be in too much of a hurry having placed the residents in jeopardy. She stated the DM was to have
monitored the temperatures and food temp logs. The ADMN stated the failure was with dietary staff being in
a hurry. She stated her expectations were for all food temperatures to be completed and logged into the
food temperature logbooks.

During an interview on 07/08/2024 at 11:53 AM the DM stated there should have been no expired products
in the pantry and was not aware there were. She stated all products should have had an in date, and once
opened or taken out of the original box, they should have been labeled with an opened date. The DM stated
she monitored for expired dates as well as monitored products being labeled and stored properly twice a
week. She stated the staff usually used the products before they would have expired so had not monitored
the expired products as closely. The DM also stated, hairnets should be worn on all exposed hair, even
beards, in the kitchen. She stated she had told her staff multiple times a hairnet should be worn, but they
had not listened to her. She stated it was unclean to not wear one, with the possibility of hair getting into the
resident's food. The DM stated the uncovered trashcan receptacle was unsanitary and was always to be
covered. She stated it was not to be placed in the prep and cooking area without a lid. The DM stated
dietary staff knew they were to have kept the trash receptacle covered at all times. The DM stated the ice
scoop was to be stored on top of the ice machine. She stated the top of the ice machine had not been
cleaned or sanitized, and she never thought it was an unsanitary place to store it. She stated the negative
impact to residents possibly could have been bacteria getting into resident drinks when ice was being
placed in their cups causing them to get sick. The DM stated the scoop in the oatmeal should not be stored
inside the bin. She stated it was unsanitary and could cause cross contamination with staff touching it. She
stated all dietary Infection Control was monitored ultimately by her, as the residents were vulnerable to
increased bacteria. She stated they could get sick. The DM stated all staff should also wear hairnets on any
loose hair. She stated the failures were staff not doing what was asked of them and to follow through with
rules and regulation of what was taught in her in-services and trainings. She stated her expectations were
for the residents' food to not be contaminated with germs and bacteria. The DM stated ultimately, she had
not monitored her staff or followed through with rules and regulations and keeping staff accountable. The
DM stated her expectations were for staff the follow all trainings and protocols.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:27 PM, the ADMN stated the DM monitored the kitchen sanitation,
cleanliness and all food preparation and products. She stated she had not seen or performed any follow up
of dietary staff since she had recently started the position as ADMN. She stated she felt the failure was with
staff not following through with their in-services. The ADMN stated the negative impact to residents could
have been cross contamination with residents getting sick. She stated her expectations were for all staff to
follow the guidelines and regulations for the health of the residents.

Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and
the public.
Based on observations, interviews, record review, the facility failed to provide a safe, functional, sanitary,
and comfortable environment for 1 of 4 hallways (Memory Care Unit) and reviewed for safe, functional,
sanitary, and comfortable environment.
The facility failed to have residents' environment clean and without damage for 1 (MCU) of 4 hallways.
These failures could place residents who reside in the facility in an unsafe and uncomfortable environment.
Findings included:
During observation on 04/08/2024 at 9:45 AM revealed:
1.
Smell of urine upon entrance
2.
Debris and trash in the hallway and resident rooms
3.
Window frame unpainted with exposed wood and debris
During a confidential interview on 07/09/2024 at 3:30 PM, the confidential interview stated they were happy
that State was in the facility as they had asked upper management for more staff as they were being told
that the CNA's were to clean the MCU while working their shift. Confidential interview stated HK would go
clean only on Fridays. Confidential interview stated HK had not always cleaned on Fridays and that was
why it smelled of urine. Confidential interview stated it took away them away from resident care and was
unable to keep up with both jobs.
During an interview on 07/09/2024 at 4:00 PM, the HK Supervisor stated her HK staff stayed mostly on the
1-3 halls M-F and there was no specific day for those halls to be cleaned. She stated the MCU was
designated to be cleaned only on Fridays, but at times had not been cleaned on a weekly basis because
the CNA's were to clean that hallway. The HK Supervisor stated she had spoken to ADMN about getting
more staff for HK, but no staff had been hired. She stated she only had 3 HK all day on Fridays and the aids
do all the cleaning on hall 4 (MCU) due to not having enough HK staff to help clean there. The HK
Supervisor stated she did not keep a cleaning log for the MCU. The HK supervisor stated she was
responsible for monitoring Hall 4 (MCU). Her expectations were to have someone to help check the laundry
and to check for any chemicals, clear the hallways and rooms for trash and dirty dishes. She stated the
negative impact for the MCU residents were, they could not realize something was dirty because of their
conditions and it was not acceptable for them to be in this environment. The HK Supervisor stated there
were sometimes only one aid on the MCU, and it would be hard to watch the residents and keep clean the
way it was supposed to be.

During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 2:42 PM, the DON stated the protocols for HK and cleaning the MCU
was to be designated on Fridays, but they could not always clean that day due to low staffing. She stated
the CNA's and Aids do a cleaning sweep with the day and night shift splitting the duties. The DON stated
the staff as a whole should have been cleaning the facility areas but ultimately it fell on the Director of HK.
She stated it was nursing and CNA's that monitored and clean up and if they were not able to finish it, it
was HK was that finished the job. The DON stated if the environment were not cleaned the residents could
possibly get sick, but it depended on what their diagnosis was. She stated the failure occurred with not
having enough cleaning staff, and her expectations was that the residents environment be cleaned and
completed in a timely manner.
During an interview on 07/10/2024 at 6:42 PM, the ADMN stated the MCU should be cleaned before any
other halls in the facility, as that hall was a high touch area. She stated the MCU hall would be more likely to
spread bacteria. The ADMN stated it was the HK supervisor who should have monitored as well as herself
as ADMN, but she had not had the time since being hired in that position. She stated it fell on the HK to
clean in the MCU on Fridays and the CNA's being told to clean on the other days. The ADMN stated since
the CNA's cleaning prior to Fridays it most likely would cause for a decrease in proper resident care when
needed. She stated the failure to having done it that way was not having enough staff but had not been
aware of the dirty environment. The ADMN stated her expectations were to add more staff to help on that
hallway to better the environment for the residents.
