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, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure residents had a right to a safe, clean,
comfortable and homelike environment for two of 10 residents (Resident #18 and Resident #59) and four of
4 shared bathrooms (room [ROOM NUMBER] and 304, room [ROOM NUMBER] and 308, room [ROOM
NUMBER] and 309, and room [ROOM NUMBER] and 312) reviewed for homelike environment. 1. The
facility failed to ensure Resident #18's restroom tile around the toilet was in good working condition on
12/09/25. 2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #59's restroom toilet was working properly, and fan blower
wires were not exposed in bathroom ceiling on 12/09/25. 3. The facility failed to ensure the restroom
handrails were in good repair for bathrooms shared by room [ROOM NUMBER] and 304, room [ROOM
NUMBER] and 308, room [ROOM NUMBER] and 309, and room [ROOM NUMBER] and 312. These
failures placed residents at risk of resident restroom in an unsafe environment and a lack of homelike
environment for residents. Findings included:1. Record Review of Resident #18's Annual Assessment
reflected Resident #18 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with included diagnoses of coronary artery
disease and heart failure. Resident #18 had a BIMS score of 15 indicating her cognition was intact.
Resident #18 was independent with toileting. Observation on 12/09/25 at 11:46 AM revealed Resident
#18's bathroom tile of about 3 inches was missing around the sides of the toilet and 6 inches behind the
toilet. There were rocks where the missing tile was. Interview with Resident #18 revealed the tile had been
like this since about June 2025 2. Record Review of Resident #59's admission assessment dated [DATE]
reflected Resident #59 [was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of hip fracture, dementia
(significant cognitive decline severe enough to disrupt daily life) and polyneuropathy (condition affecting
multiple peripheral nerves in different body parts are damaged). Resident #59 was moderately impaired
with cognitive skills for daily decision making. Resident #59 was dependent with ADLs. Resident #59 was
on hospice services. Interview on 12/09/25 at 11:20 AM with Resident #59's RP revealed the wires showing
in ceiling of bathroom had been like that since admission. Resident #59's RP stated the toilet was clogged
and had been like this for a while. She stated Resident #59 was on hospice services. Interview on
12/11/2025 at 2:50 PM with the Maintenance Director revealed toilets on hall 200, including Resident #59's
toilet was clogged/not working properly for the last week. He stated the wires in the ceiling of Resident
#59's bathroom was from the fan blower. He stated he was having difficulty finding a replacement cover for
the fan blower. He stated Resident #18's toilet had been fixed where they had to drill through the bathroom
floor. He stated he was aware of the missing tile around the toilet but had not gotten to it yet. Interview on
12/11/2025 at 1:36 PM with the Administrator revealed his expectations for repairs and maintaining the
bathrooms were that everything worked and there was a home-like environment. He said staff have been
educated on how to report issues in the electronic maintenance system, which notified him and the
Maintenance Director immediately. He said the Maintenance

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record reviews and interviews, the facility failed to send a copy of the residents' discharge notice, prior to
discharge, to the representative of the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman of the residents'
transfer or discharge and the reasons for the move, for 1 of 4 residents (Resident #24) reviewed for the
discharge process. Resident #24 was discharged on 10/15/2025, 11/08/2025 and 11/26/2025 without a
notice to the Long-Term Care Ombudsman. This failure could place residents at risk of not knowing their
rights or receiving the services of the state Long-Term Care Ombudsman.The findings included:A record
review of Resident #24's face sheet printed 12/11/2025 revealed diagnoses of Unspecified Fracture of
Lower End of Right Humerus (a break near the elbow, causing pain, swelling, bruising, and stiffness),
Calculus of Kidney (known as a kidney stones), Shortness of Breath, Obesity, Acute Kidney Failure, and
Type 2 Diabetes.A record review of Resident #24's MDS assessment dated [DATE], reflected a BIMS score
of 04 indicating his cognition was severely impaired, and most of his functional abilities required substantial
to maximal assistance (the helper does more than half the effort) with his activities of daily living.A record
review of Resident #24's electronic medical record revealed a progress note dated 10/15/2025 stating
Resident #24 was transferred to the hospital.A record review of Resident #24's electronic medical record
revealed a progress note dated 11/08/2025 stating Resident #24 left facility via ambulance.A record review
of Resident #24's electronic medical record revealed a progress note dated 10/26/2025 stating Resident
#24 was transferred to the emergency room.A record review of the facility's transfer and discharge
summary revealed resident #24 was discharged on 10/15/2025, 11/08/2025 and 11/26/2025.A record
review of the medical record revealed no evidence of a written discharge notice being provided to the LTC
ombudsman on 10/15/2025, 11/08/2025, and 11/26/2025.During an interview with the Social Worker on
12/10/2025 she said she did not send any written notices to the Ombudsman.During an interview with the
ADON on 12/10/2025, she said the charge nurse called the physician, DON, family, and Administrator, and
documented in the EMR. She was not aware of anything given in writing.During an interview with the DON
on 12/11/2025, she said the charge nurse verbally notified the family and documented the notification in
their EMR. She said the impact on a resident/family if they were not informed, when the resident was
transferred, was fear of not knowing where their loved one was and not getting the opportunity to be with
the resident during a difficult traumatic time.During an interview with the Administrator on 12/11/2025 , he
said when a resident was transferred or discharged nursing verbally informed the responsible party,
physician, and the ombudsman by calling them.During an interview with the facility's Ombudsman on
12/11/2025, she said the facility does not call her to inform her of transfers or discharges. She said in 2025
the facility sent a transfer/discharge report three times, in March, April, and Aug.A record review of the
facility's Transfer or Discharge, Facility-Initiated Policy dated October 2022 revealed: 1. Each resident will be
permitted to remain in the facility, and not be transferred or discharged unless: a. the transfer or discharge
is necessary for the resident's welfare and the resident's needs cannot be met in this facility. Notice of
Transfer or Discharge (Emergent or Therapeutic Leave)1. When residents who are sent emergently to an
acute care setting, these scenarios are considered facility-initiated transfers, NOT discharges, because the
resident's return is generally expected.2. Residents who are sent emergently to an acute care setting, such
as a hospital, are permitted to return to the facility. Residents who are sent to the acute care setting for
routine treatment/planned procedures are also allowed to return to the facility.3. Under the following
circumstances, the notice is given as soon as it is practicable but before the transfer or discharge: a. The

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered
care plan for each resident, consistent with the resident rights set forth that included measurable objectives
and timeframes to meet a resident's medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs that were
identified in the comprehensive assessment for a resident for one (Resident #24) of five residents reviewed
for care plans. The facility failed to ensure Resident 24's Comprehensive Care Plan reflected the use of
oxygen therapy on 12/10/2025. This failure could place the residents at risk of not receiving the necessary
care and services needed.Findings included:Record review of Resident #24's Face Sheet, dated
12/10/2025, reflected a [AGE] year-old male who initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted
on [DATE]. Resident #24 had diagnoses which included mild persistent asthma (causes the airway to
narrow and can make breathing difficult) and pneumonia (infection in lung). Record review of Resident
#24's Quarterly MDS (tool used to assess health needs and functional capabilities) Assessment, dated
11/05/2025, reflected moderately impaired cognition (noticeable decline in memory and thinking abilities)
with a BIMS (tool used to assess cognitive function) score of 12 (moderate cognitive impairment). The
Quarterly MDS Assessment indicated Resident #11 received oxygen therapy. Record review of Resident
#24's Comprehensive Care Plan, dated 12/02/2025 did not reflect oxygen therapy.Record review of
Resident #24's Physician Order, dated 11/21/2025, reflected to administer oxygen via nasal cannula at 3
LPM as needed for shortness of breath and to maintain oxygen greater than 90% every shift. During an
observation on 12/10/2025 at 7:31 AM, Resident #24 was lying in bed awake. Resident #24's oxygen tubing
was connected to the oxygen concentrator next to his bed. During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 1:14 PM,
the Regional Reimbursement Coordinator stated Resident #24 had a recent decline and a new order for
oxygen therapy. She stated she would look at Resident #24's medical records and if he did not have a care
plan for oxygen, she would add it.During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 1:40 PM, the Regional
Reimbursement Coordinator stated Resident #24 did not have a care plan for oxygen and she added one.
She stated it was important to ensure the resident's care plan was updated so he received the appropriate
care. During an interview on 12/11/2025 at 11:05 AM, the ADON stated she and the DON checked
residents' admission records and worked together to add care plans relating to residents' orders. She
stated the MDS Coordinator followed up to ensure care plans were appropriate. She stated care plans
included nursing interventions to help residents reach goals. She stated it was also a way to monitor new
interventions. During an interview on 12/11/2025 11:43 AM, the DON stated it was important to ensure
oxygen therapy was included in Resident #24's care plan. She stated if the resident was not getting the
oxygen he needed, it could cause deoxygenation, confusion, or a change in condition. She stated when a
care plan was added, tasks were assigned to different staff members, and everyone was able to see it.
Record review of the facility's policy, Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered, revised March 2022,
reflected A comprehensive person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables
to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial, and functional needs is developed and implemented for each
resident. 11. Assessments of residents are ongoing and care plans are revised as information about the
residents and the residents' conditions change.

oxygen tubing should have been in a bag. CNA E stated if she saw oxygen tubing on the floor, she replaced
it with new tubing and put it in a bag. She stated it was important to prevent infection.During an observation
and interview on 12/09/2025 at 9:52 AM, LVN C went with the surveyor to Resident #2 and Resident #3's
room. She stated the oxygen tubing should have been stored in a bag. She stated the oxygen tubing
collected germs and put the residents at risk for respiratory issues. LVN C removed the tubing and stated
she would replace it and ensure it was in a bag. During an interview on 12/09/2025 at 3:20 PM, the ADON
stated the expectation was for oxygen tubing to be stored in a bag for infection control. Resident #19Record
review of Resident #19's face sheet, dated 12/10/2025, reflected a [AGE] year-old male who initially
admitted on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE]. Resident #19 had diagnoses which included traumatic brain
injury (damage to the brain caused by an external physical force) and tracheostomy status (tube inserted
through a surgical opening in the neck to help you breathe). Resident #19 was on hospice care.Record
review of Resident #19's MDS Assessment and Care Screening, dated 09/08/2025, reflected a BIMS was
not appropriate. Section C (Cognitive Patterns) indicated the resident was severely impaired with cognitive
skills for daily decision making. Section O (Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs) reflected
oxygen therapy, tracheostomy care, and suctioning.Record review of Resident #19's Comprehensive Care
Plan, dated 09/10/2025, reflected the resident had a tracheostomy and was at risk for increased secretions,
congestion, and respiratory infections. One intervention was to monitor for suctioning of increased
secretions and assess for relief. Record review of Resident #19's Physician Order, dated 09/04/2025,
reflected to suction oral and respiratory secretions every shift as needed. During an observation and

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards in the facility's only kitchen. 1. The facility failed to ensure
fryer was free of sediments and failed to ensure oil had been replaced. 2. Dietary [NAME] I and Dietary
Aide J failed to ensure hair was covered or properly restrained during lunch meal service on 12/11/25.
These failures could place residents at risk for food-borne illness and contamination Findings included: 1.
Observation on 12/09/25 at 10:43 AM revealed fryer revealed about 2 inches sediment around the edges of
the fryer and food particles in dark brown oil. Interview on 12/09/25 at 10:45 AM with Dietary Manager
revealed the fryer was last used on Friday (12/05/25) and the oil is supposed to be changed weekly on
Friday. She stated it was not changed last Friday (12/05/25) since she was out of oil to replace it. She stated
her shipment was coming and will be changed once she got the oil. 2. Observation on 12/11/25 at 11:58
AM revealed Dietary [NAME] I was putting food on resident lunch plates with uncovered hair about 0.5 inch
above both ears and 0.5 inch in back of her head. Observation on 12/11/25 at 12:01 PM revealed Dietary
Aide J's hair restraint was not covering about 1 inch in front of both ears and about 1.5 inches in back of her
head. Interview on 12/11/25 at 12:18 PM with Dietary Manager revealed dietary staff not wearing effective
hair restraints can place the risk of hair falling in the food and contaminating the food. She stated not
changing the oil for the fryer or filtering the oil could place the food at risk of contamination. Record Review
of the facility's policy Cleaning Instructions: Deep Fat Fryer dated 2023 reflected Fryers will be cleaned after
each use. Procedure: 4. Oil should be changed at least every 10 times the fryer is used. When the oil starts
to turn a dark brown, starts to smell or the consistency changes, it is time to change the oil. 5. Remove food
particles from the oil after each use. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Food Code, dated 2022, noted
the following regarding body hair, Food employees shall wear hair restraints such as hats, hair coverings or
nets, beard restraints, and clothing that covers body hair, that are designed and worn to effectively keep
their hair from contacting exposed food; clean equipment, utensils, and linens; and unwrapped single-serve
and single-use articles.
