documented on 05/17/2024. Review of Resident #50's progress notes revealed no evidence that Resident
#50's tracheostomy shield was changed out by any facility staff between 05/10/2024 - 05/22/2024. Further
review revealed no documentation of any refusals from Resident #50 for tracheostomy shield care by facility
staff between 05/10/2024 - 05/22/2024.
Review of Resident #50's TAR revealed Trach: Change trach shield . Q [per] week . with a start date of
01/30/2023 at 6:00 AM. Review of Resident #50's TAR revealed no evidence that Resident #50's
tracheostomy shield was changed out by any facility staff between 05/10/2024 - 05/22/2024.
In observation and interview on 05/22/2024 at 11:00 AM, Resident #50 was resting in bed in his room. His
respiratory equipment was audibly functioning with the distal end of the tubing connected to Resident #50's
tracheostomy shield. The date on Resident #50's tracheostomy shield was observed to be dated 5/10/24.
Resident #50 stated RT J visited him at the facility every Friday and provided his tracheostomy care.
Resident #50 denied refusing tracheostomy care from facility staff and stated that he has been cooperative
with any intervention what was prescribed for his tracheostomy care.
In telephone interview with RT J on 05/23/2024 at 9:19 AM and 9:31 AM, he stated that last Friday
05/17/2024, the facility was not stocked with tracheostomy shields, and he was not able to provide a new
tracheostomy shield for Resident #50. He stated he informed Central Supply staff (CS S) and documented
this request on an equipment request log. He stated he did not inform nursing leadership because he
informed CS S of what he needed. He acknowledged that providing a new tracheostomy shield for Resident
#50 was important for infection control purposes and stated the .[tracheostomy shield] can get dirty .
anytime you have plastic and water, bacteria can grow .
In interview with the facility staff responsible for Central Supply needs, CS S, on 05/23/2024 at 11:04 AM,
she stated RT J reported to her on 05/17/2024 the facility was out of tracheostomy shields, and he then
documented an equipment request on a request sheet. When documentation of this request sheet was
requested from CS S, she stated she was not able to provide it because she shredded it. She further stated
that supplies for the facility were ordered each Tuesday and that the tracheostomy shield had not arrived at
the facility until today, 05/23/2024. She stated she was not aware Resident #50's tracheostomy shield had
not been changed out, and it was RT J's responsibility to inform her when respiratory supplies get low
and/or were not stocked at the facility. She stated it was ultimately her responsibility to ensure we don't run
out of stuff, so the residents have what they need. She stated she did not inform anyone in nursing
leadership that the facility did not have tracheostomy shields stocked after RT J informed her on
05/17/2024.
In observation and interview with Resident #50's nurse for the day, LVN P, on 05/22/2024 at 12:17 PM, he
observed Resident #50's tracheostomy shield and stated It was not acceptable that his tracheostomy shield
was dated 05/10/2024. He stated this meant Resident #50 had not been provided a new tracheostomy
shield since that date. He stated that RT J visited the facility each Friday and was responsible for physician
ordered respiratory therapy equipment changes weekly, which included his tracheostomy shield. He
acknowledged that facility nurses were able to change any respiratory therapy equipment; but stated he
believed Resident #50 prefers RT J to provide this respiratory therapy intervention. When asked if he
attempted to provide this care for Resident #50, LVN P stated he [Resident #50] refuses a lot of things, so
he might have and further stated he did not report that Resident #50's tracheostomy shield was out of date
to nursing leadership. He stated replacing Resident #50's tracheostomy shield was important for infection
control.
In an interview with ADON M on 05/22/2024 at 12:00 PM, she stated Resident #50 was the only

resident with a tracheostomy at the facility. She stated that the facility's respiratory therapist, RT J, rounded
on him every week on Friday and was responsible for replacing Resident #50's tracheostomy equipment at
that time. She stated that facility nurses were responsible for tracheostomy care on the other days beyond

lately.

out of tracheostomy shields, and further stated it was surprising to her as we are never out of anything. She
stated she was not aware Resident #50's tracheostomy shield was not changed per physician order. She
stated it was not acceptable and expected to be notified by her staff if the facility was out of supplies so I
can get it taken care of. She stated she was not aware of any refusals from Resident #50 related to
respiratory therapy cares. The DON stated there was a risk to the resident as it was best practice for a
resident's tracheostomy shield to be changed out weekly for infection control purposes.

Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and
the public.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide a safe, functional, sanitary, and
comfortable environment for one of one facility reviewed for environment.
1. The facility failed to ensure the foundation, walls, and ceiling were in good repair in the hallway to the
right of the secretary's desk.
2. The facility failed to ensure the carpets were clean and stain free throughout the facility.
These failures could affect all residents, resulting in falls and cross contamination which could lead to a
decline in the resident's health and physical functioning.
Findings included:
Review of the quarterly MDS assessment for Resident #1, dated 04/23/24, reflected he was an [AGE]
year-old male admitted on [DATE]. His cognitive status was moderately impaired. His diagnoses included
Alzheimer's Disease and heart failure.
An observation on 05/21/24 at 9:25 AM revealed on the right side of the facility, close to the receptionist
desk there were foundation problems. There was a downward slope on the floor. The walls had separated
from the floor. The floor was lower than the wall. There were large cracks on the walls that were close to the
ceiling on the right side of the hallway that traveled from one door to the next. There were additional cracks
that traveled from the ceiling down to the door frames. There was a large open hole in the ceiling where
pieces in the ceiling were hanging out. There were three cones with caution yellow tape in front of the area.
The carpet at the entrance to the facility and down the resident halls was gray colored with large areas of
brown/black discoloration. The carpets appear to be stained with unknown substances.
An interview with the Administrator on 05/21/24 at 11:25 AM revealed a new company took over the facility
on 05/10/24. The Administrator said he had worked at the building for 2 weeks. He said he was not sure
when the facility foundation repair would be fixed. He said there were vendors looking at it and it would
need a lot of repair and foundation work.
An interview on 05/21/24 at 2:10 PM with the CEO revealed an engineering survey started after the last
facility survey (10/17/23). The CEO said she received the engineering report on 04/08/24 and the facility
was working to get the work done.
An observation on 05/21/24 at 2:15 PM revealed Resident #1 was walking on the right side of the building
where the damage was. He was on the other side of the cones walking toward the front desk. The Surveyor
notified the Administrator. The Surveyor attempted to interview the resident, but the resident was confused.
The Administrator approached the resident, and the resident told the Administrator, Bang, bang.
An interview with the DON on 5/22/24 at 1:55 PM revealed she had worked at the facility for one year. She
said she did not know when the foundation damage first occurred, but she said it had been that way since
she started employment. The DON said the facility had been through change of ownerships,

but none of the companies fixed it. She said the previous owners were going back and forth with trying to
figure out who was supposed to repair it. The DON said something was currently being done with soil
testing and she was told the repair process would take 2 years. The DON said residents did not go to that
side of the building and no staff or residents had been injured in the area. The DON said the carpet was
cleaned daily, but there were no plans to replace it until the foundation work was completed.
Residents Affected - Many
An interview on 5/22/24 at 2:45 PM with the SW revealed she had worked at the facility since 09/06/22. The
SW said the damage to the foundation started when she was hired. She said during the summer the
ground dried up and the damage would worsen. When the facility got rain the damage was not too bad, but
during summer it would worsen. The SW said the facility went through a CHOW on 08/01/23. She said at
that time, she was told there were 3-4 foundation companies that were going to look at the issues. The
Foundation companies said they needed information from structural engineers who said the foundation
would require more than just a foundation company to repair. The SW said the carpet was cleaned with a
commercial carpet shampooer but would not be replaced until the foundation work was completed.
Review of the facility policy, Homelike Environment, revised February 2021, reflected:
