She said she did not provide oversight of the MDS assessments and that was done at the corporate level.

During an observation on 1/20/2026 at 9:01 a.m., Resident #41 was up in a wheelchair in the activity room with legs and feet dangling and no footrest. She had a hand device in her left hand that looked like a carrot. During an interview on 1/20/2026 at 11:54 a.m., CNA B said she was assigned to Resident #41 and was not sure why Resident #41 did not have footrest on her wheelchair. She said she had them in the past. She said Resident #41's legs should be supported to prevent discomfort. She said Resident #41 required the carrot device in her hand during the day but could not recall if she placed the device in the resident's hand yesterday or not. She said the device helped prevent further worsening of her contracture. During an interview on 1/20/2026 at 11:58 a.m., LVN E said the nurse should monitor each resident's position and ensure each resident had the devices they needed for proper positioning. He said not properly supporting a resident's feet and legs could cause circulation changes and pain. He said residents with hand contractures were to have a hand device to prevent the worsening of the contracture and the nurse should monitor that they were in place. He said he could not recall if Resident #41 had hers yesterday or not. During an interview on 1/21/2026 at 10:40 a.m., the DON said dependent residents should have their body supported and positioned and should not have their legs and feet dangling from their wheelchair. She said that non-positioned and supported legs could cause circulation changes and increase in contractures of the feet. She said she was not sure why Resident #41 did not have leg supports on her wheelchair and all staff should monitor residents for proper support. She said that Resident #41 had hand contractures and should have a device in place to prevent the worsening of the contracture. She said the nurses and aides should be ensuring those services were in place. She said the facility did not have a policy for

During an interview on 1/21/2026 at 11:35 a.m., the Administrator said dependent residents should have proper support of their lower body when up in a wheelchair and some kind of device to prevent worsening of contractures. He said if a resident's legs were dangling without support it could affect circulation, the skin and muscles. He said contractures could worsen without the use of devices to help prevent them and expected all staff to monitor every resident for the care they needed and provide it to prevent further decline.

She said she had gotten Resident #41 up yesterday and today and her sling looked good to her, and the faded loops were just from every day washing. She said the laundry only washed them and hung them to dry. She said she could see how the fading could be from use of bleach but was not sure. She said using slings that were faded could break and cause resident injuries. During an interview on 1/20/2026 at 12:10 p.m., the Laundry Aide said she was new at her position, and she washed all lift slings on the same setting as the towels and bleach was automatically distributed in the wash per the settings.

She said lift slings that were damaged could cause a resident to get hurt. During an interview on 1/21/2026 at 10:40 a.m., the DON said before a CNA used a lift sling, they should inspect the sling for fraying, fading, and/or wear. She said the slings were sent to the laundry but should not be bleached or dried. She said the housekeeping supervisor assisted with monitoring the slings and removing them from service. She said lift slings that were not in good order could cause resident injuries during transfers. During an interview on 1/21/2026 at 11:35 a.m., the Administrator said all lift slings were to be washed without bleach and hung to dry. He said all slings should be inspected by the housekeeping director before placing them on the floor and again by the CNAs before using them. He said if a sling was frayed, faded, or worn it should not be used to prevent resident injury. He said he expected the staff responsible to properly wash, dry, inspect and use all lift slings per the manufacturer's guidelines. During an interview on 1/21/2026 at 1:07 p.m., the Housekeeping Director said he was now assigned to monitor the lift slings for wear and fading. He said he had a book he kept track of them by and as he removed them from service he replaced them with new ones. He said he was not aware that the new laundry aide was using bleach on the slings until today and would reeducate his staff on proper care of the slings. He said slings that were damaged could result in resident injuries. Record review of a

She stated day shift CNAs documented all three meals because all meal services occurred during the day shift. She stated she documented all meals each shift she worked, including the evening meal. She said she documented the percentage of meals eaten by each resident on the CNA flow sheet using the computer on the secured unit. She stated she did not understand why resident evening meal intakes were not available to view on the monthly report. She stated she documented meal percentages for the evening meals for all residents on the secured unit when she worked.

She stated the nurse would have to check every residents' flow sheet to ensure that meal intake percentages were documented. She stated she did not check resident flow sheets, but the CNAs reported if a resident had poor intake to the charge nurse. She stated the risk of not tracking resident meal intakes was malnutrition, weight changes and change in condition. During an interview on 01/21/2026 at 11:30 a.m., the DON stated the CNAs were responsible for charting resident meal intake percentages in the computer system. She stated the day shift CNAs charted intakes for all three meals throughout the facility. She said the current charting system did not alert if meal intakes were not entered. She stated the charge nurses were responsible for monitoring that CNA flow sheets were completed at the end of each shift. She said she was currently working with her corporate information technology department on a solution to the evening meal intakes not available to view. She stated there was possibly an error in the system and the information was not being displayed. She said the risk of not monitoring resident intakes could include not recognizing changes in resident conditions and nutritional concerns. She stated her expectations, moving forward, were CNAs accurately record all residents' meal intake percentages after each meal and the charge nurses monitored CNA flow sheets were completed
