Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or
her rights.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record review the facility failed to treat each resident with respect and dignity and provide
care in a manner that promotes maintenance or enhancement of his or her quality of life for 2 of 3 residents
(Resident #44 and Resident #47) reviewed for resident rights. The facility failed to ensure Resident #44 and
Resident #47 were treated respectfully by CNA E. This failure could place residents at risk of decreased
self-worth, loss of dignity, and a diminished quality of life.Findings included: 1. Record review of a face
sheet dated 01/06/2026 indicated Resident #47 was a [AGE] year-old male initially admitted to the facility
on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses which included hemiplegia and hemiparesis following
unspecified cerebrovascular disease affecting left non-dominant side (paralysis and weakness of the left
side due to affected blood flow and vessels in the brain) and major depressive disorder recurrent severe
without psychotic features (recurrent mood disorder characterized by intense depression or loss of interest
or pleasure that lasts weeks). Record review of Resident #47's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE]
indicated he was understood by others and understood others. Resident #47's BIMS score was a 15, which
indicated his cognition was intact. The MDS assessment indicated Resident # 47 required setup or
clean-up assistance with eating, substantial/maximal assistance with personal hygiene, and dependent on
staff for toileting and showering/bathing self. Record review of Resident #47's care plan reviewed
12/16/2025 indicated he had an ADL self-care performance deficit and required assistance from staff for his
ADLs. During an interview on 01/04/2026 at 2:45 PM, Resident #47 said CNA E was the rudest aide, and
he did not like the way she talked to him. Resident #47 said for example yesterday (01/03/2026), his
roommate (Resident #44) spilled coffee, and today (01/04/2026) CNA E refused to give his roommate
coffee because he spilled it yesterday. Resident #47 said he reported to RN C that CNA E was rude to him.
2. Record review of a face sheet dated 01/07/2026 indicated Resident #44 was a [AGE] year-old-male
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses which included chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (chronic inflammatory lung condition that affects the respiratory system) and
generalized anxiety disorder (mental illness defined by feelings of uneasiness, worry and fear). Record
review of Resident #44's Comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated he understood and was
understood by others. Resident #44 had a BIMS score of 13, which indicated his cognition was intact. The
MDS assessment indicated Resident #44 required supervision or touching assistance with eating, partial to
moderate assistance with personal hygiene and substantial/maximal assistance with showering/bathing
self. Record review of Resident #44's care plan reviewed 12/23/2025 indicated he had an ADL self-care
deficit related to activity intolerance and shortness of breath. Resident #44's care plan indicated he required
supervision as needed for eating. During an interview on 01/04/2026 at 2:55 PM, Resident #44 said
yesterday, he accidentally dropped his cup of coffee, and this morning CNA E told him she was not going to
give him any coffee because he spilled it yesterday.

Resident #44 said he told RN C, CNA E was rude and would not give him his coffee, and RN C gave him
coffee. Resident #44 said CNA E was rude to him. Resident #44 said it was the way CNA E spoke to him.
During an interview on 01/04/2026 at 3:23 PM, RN C said in the morning (01/04/2026), CNA E called her
down to Resident #44's room because he was upset and had knocked over his tray and an old cup of
coffee. When she went to Resident #44's room, Resident #44 was upset because he did not get his coffee.
RN C said she did not ask CNA E why she would not give Resident #44 his coffee. RN C said she just went
and got him coffee. Resident #44 and Resident #47 had previously reported to her that CNA E was rude to
them. RN C said she reported it to the ADON and DON, and they said they would talk to her. RN C said
they should do what the resident requests because they were there to provide customer service to them.
RN C said not doing what the resident requested could make them angry or change their behaviors. During
an interview on 01/04/2026 at 4:16 PM, CNA E said she had not been rude to Resident #44 or Resident
#47. CNA E said Resident #44 was shaking as if he could not hold a cup of coffee, so she told him she was
going to get him up in his chair and then give him coffee. CNA E said Resident #44 became upset and
started cussing and threw the tray on the floor. CNA E said Resident #44 had never behaved in this
manner. CNA E said she did not tell Resident #44 he could not have any coffee because he spilled it
yesterday. CNA E said they should meet the requests of the residents because it was their right. During an
interview on 01/05/2026 at 5:30 PM, CNA G said Resident #44 and Resident #47 reported to her that CNA
E was rude to them. CNA G said management was aware of the residents reporting that CNA E was rude
to them. CNA G said the residents were saying it's the way CNA E talks to them and the tone she uses.
During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 12:53 PM, the Administrator said he was told Resident #44 dropped
his coffee on the floor the morning of 01/04/2026, and Resident #44 requested CNA E give him another
cup of coffee. CNA E refused to do so, and he was really upset because he said she should have given him
another one. The Administrator said RN C gave him another cup of coffee. The Administrator said CNA E
told him she did not give Resident #44 coffee because she was waiting until he was in his chair because he
was shaking. The Administrator said none of the staff or residents reported to him CNA E was rude to them.
The Administrator said he expected all the residents to be treated with dignity and respect. The
Administrator said he and the DON were responsible for ensuring the staff was treating residents with
dignity and respect. The Administrator said the residents not being treated with dignity and respect could
affect the residents' outcome and could make them feel unhappy. During an interview on 01/07/2025 at 2:29
PM, the DON said CNA E reported to her that Resident #44 threw his coffee and spilled it everywhere. The
DON said CNA E told her she was going to get Resident #44 up, and she told him to let her get him up in
his chair and then she would get him the coffee. CNA E said he became upset and knocked the coffee over,
and she left and got another nurse. The DON said Resident #44 told her he just wanted his coffee. The
DON said Resident #44 did not report to her that CNA E was rude to him, but RN C told her Resident #44
reported CNA E was rude to him. The DON said prior to this incident she did not receive any complaints
about CNA E being rude from the staff or the residents. The DON said she had received complaints from
the residents and staff saying CNA E was too loud and talked too much. The DON said she expected the
staff not to be rude to the residents, to have empathy and be caring towards them. The DON said treating
the residents rudely could make them feel like the staff do not care about them and make them not feel
safe. Record review of the facility's undated policy titled, Resident Rights, indicated, A facility must treat
each resident with respect and dignity and care for each resident in a manner and in an environment that
promotes maintenance or enhancement of his or her quality of life, recognizing each resident's individuality.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident had the right to be informed in
advance, by the physician or other practitioner or professional, of the risks and benefits of treatment and
treatment alternatives for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #3) reviewed for psychoactive medications. The facility
failed to ensure written consent on HHSC Form 3713 was obtained from Resident #3 prior to the
administration of Invega Sustenna, an antipsychotic medication, used to treat schizophrenia. This failure
could place residents at risk for receiving medications they had not consented to, experiencing potential
adverse reactions, and a potential decline in physical and mental health status.Findings included: Record
review of a face sheet dated 01/07/2026 indicated Resident #3 was a [AGE] year-old female initially
admitted on [DATE] and re-admitted [DATE] with diagnoses which included paranoid schizophrenia (mental
disorder characterized by delusions, hallucinations, disorganized thoughts, speech and behavior). Record
review of Resident #3's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated she was understood by others
and understood others. The MDS assessment indicated Resident #3's BIMS score was an 11, which
indicated her cognition was moderately impaired. The MDS assessment indicated Resident #3 received an
antipsychotic medication. Record review of Resident #3's Order Summary Report dated 01/06/2026
indicated she had an order for Invega Sustenna prefilled syringe 234 mg/1.5 ml inject 1.5 ml
intramuscularly (shot in the muscle) one time a day on the 17th every month with a start date of
10/17/2025. Record review of Resident #3's care plan reviewed 12/02/2025 indicated she required an
antipsychotic medication to administer medications as ordered and educate the resident/family/caregivers
about risks, benefits, and side effects. Record review of Resident #3's Treatment Administration Records for
October 2025, November 2025, and December 2025 indicated she received the Invega Sustenna. Record
review of Resident #3's electronic health record on 01/06/2026 did not indicate a consent for Invega
Sustenna. Resident #3's electronic health record did not indicate a Form 3713 for Invega Sustenna. During
an interview on 01/06/2026 at 4:22 PM, the Regional Compliance Nurse said they did not have a consent
for Resident #3's Invega Sustenna. During an interview on 01/06/2025 at 5:39 PM, the ADON said the DON
and she were ensuring consents were obtained for medications. The ADON said she was not aware
Resident #3 did not have a consent for her Invega Sustenna. The ADON said she thought Resident #3 was
not receiving the medication due to insurance issues. The ADON said it was important for the residents to
have consents completed for their medications because they had to agree to the medication and the
medication had to be explained to them. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 9:29 AM, Resident #3 said
she signed her consents, and she had not been asked to sign for the administration of Invega Sustenna.
Resident #3 said she believed it was for schizophrenia. Resident #3 said she did not know what
schizophrenia was, and the staff did not provide information regarding the risks and benefits of the
medication. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 12:45 PM, the Administrator said he expected consents
for medications to be obtained. The Administrator said the nursing department was responsible for ensuring
the proper consents were obtained. The Administrator said not obtaining consents for medications placed
the resident at risk of receiving medications that were inappropriate. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at
1:19 PM, RN C said she administered Resident #3's Invega Sustenna last month (December 2025). RN C
said she was not aware Resident #3 did not have a consent for the Invega Sustenna. RN C said when a
nurse received an order for a new medication that required a consent the nurse should have the consent
completed. RN C said consent should be obtained to explain to the residents the risks and benefits of the
medication and the risks of not getting the medication and to get their permission. During an interview on

DON said when there was a new order for a medication that required a consent the nurse should get the
consent and the DON and ADON double checked to ensure it was obtained. The DON said the nurses were
supposed to get Form 3713 signed and then give it to the DON or ADON for them to take it to medical
records. The DON said she was not aware Resident #3 did not have a consent or a Form 3713 for Invega
Sustenna. The DON said it was important to obtain consents for medications because of the type of
medications they were and to ensure the patient was consenting. Record review of the facility's policy titled,
Psychotropic Medication, revised 02/12/2025, indicated, Residents have the right to be informed of and
participate in their treatment. Prior to initiating or increasing a psychotropic medication, the resident, family,
and/or resident representative will be informed of the benefits, risks, and alternatives for the medication,
including any black box warnings for antipsychotic medications, in advance of such initiation or increase.
The resident has the right to accept or decline the initiation or increase of a psychotropic medication. The
resident's medical record will include documentation that the resident or resident representative was
informed in advance of the risks and benefits of the proposed care, the treatment alternatives or other
options and was able to choose the option he or she preferred. A written consent form may serve as
evidence of a resident's consent to psychotropic medication, but other types of documentation are also
acceptable.

Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's
ability to function.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents who use psychotropic drugs receive
gradual dose reductions, and behavioral interventions, unless clinically contraindicated, in an effort to
discontinue these drugs for 3 of 5 residents (Resident #3, Resident #8, and Resident #12) reviewed for
unnecessary psychotropic drugs. 1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #12's GDR dated 10/08/25 for
citalopram (antidepressant) was completed after being approved by the physician on 11/26/25. 2. The
facility failed to ensure Resident #3's duloxetine (psychotropic medication used for depression) was
decreased after the PMHNP-BC agreed to the pharmacy recommendation to reduce the duloxetine to 40
mg on 11/26/2025. 3. The facility failed to ensure documentation of attempted gradual dose reductions were
made for Resident #8's Invega Sustenna and Olanzapine (antipsychotic medications used to treat
schizophrenia and bipolar disorder). These failures could place residents at risk of receiving unnecessary
psychotropic medications with possible medication side effects, adverse consequences, decreased quality
of life and dependence on unnecessary medications.Findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #12's face sheet dated 01/07/26 indicated he was a [AGE] year-old male who
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnoses dementia (condition characterized by progressive loss
of intellectual functioning and memory impairment), high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus (disease where
the body is unable to make insulin causing high blood sugars), and major depressive disorder (a serious
mood disorder causing persistent sadness, loss of interest, and life impairment).
Record review of Resident #12's admission MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated he understood others
and made himself understood. The MDS also indicated he had a BIMS score of 13 which meant he was
cognitively intact.
Record review of Resident #12's care plan undated indicated he required an antidepressant with
interventions to give antidepressant medications ordered by physician. Monitor/document side effects and
effectiveness. (Antidepressant side effects: dry mouth, dry eyes, constipation, urinary retention, suicidal
ideations).
Record review of Resident #12's medication regimen review indicated a gradual dose reduction request for
medication: Citalopram 30mg tab daily signed by the physician to decrease the Citalopram to 20mg daily on
11/26/25.
Record review of Resident #12's order summary report dated as of 01/07/26 after surveyor intervention
indicated he had an order for:
Citalopram Hydrobromide Oral Tablet 20 MG (Citalopram Hydrobromide) Give 1 tablet by mouth one time a
day related to major depressive disorder, recurrent, mild with a start date of 01/06/26 and no end date.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Record review of the facility's policy titled, Psychotropic Medication, revised 02/12/2025, indicated, The
facility will ensure that the resident is free from chemical restraints imposed for purposes of discipline or
convenience and that are not required to treat the resident's medical symptoms. Residents should only
receive psychotropic medications when other nonpharmacological interventions are clinically
contraindicated. Also, residents will only remain on psychotropic medications when a gradual dose
reduction and behavioral interventions have been attempted and/or deemed clinically contraindicated. A
psychotropic drug is any drug that affects brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior.
These drugs include, but are not limited to, drugs in the following categories: Anti-psychotic;
Anti-depressant; Anti-anxiety; and Hypnotic. b. Residents who use psychotropic drugs receive gradual dose
reductions, and behavioral interventions, unless clinically contraindicated, to discontinue these drugs.
Residents who use psychotropic drugs will receive gradual dose reductions (GDRs), unless clinically
contraindicated, to discontinue these drugs. For any resident who is receiving a psychotropic medication,
the facility will show evidence that a GDR has been attempted unless clinically contraindicated. Medical
record documentation should reflect the date of the GDR attempt, the outcome of the dose reduction
attempt, and the plan regarding future GDR attempts. Physician documentation should contain the rationale
for why GDR attempts are clinically contraindicated for the resident.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure assessments accurately reflected the resident status
for 2 of 27 residents (Resident #6 and Resident #44) reviewed for MDS assessment accuracy. The facility
did not ensure Resident #6's Comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] was accurately coded to
reflect her level II PASRR status. The facility did not ensure Resident #44's Quarterly MDS assessment
dated [DATE] accurately reflected he received hospice services. These failures could place residents at risk
of not receiving care and services to meet their needs.Findings included: 1. Record review of Resident #6's
face sheet dated 01/06/2026 indicated she was an [AGE] year-old female initially admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and re-admitted [DATE] with diagnoses which included cerebral palsy (a group of neurological
disorders that appear in infancy or early childhood and permanently affect body movement and muscle
coordination). Record review of the Comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6
was not considered by the state level II PASRR process to have serious mental illness and/or intellectual
disability or a related condition. Record review of Resident #6's care plan reviewed 12/23/2025, indicated
she had an intellectual disability and was PASRR positive. Record review of Resident #6's PASRR
Evaluation dated 01/05/2023 indicated she had a developmental disability other than an intellectual
disability that manifested before the age of 22. 2. Record review of a face sheet dated 01/07/2026 indicated
Resident #44 was a [AGE] year-old-male initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on
[DATE] with diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (chronic inflammatory lung
condition that affects the respiratory system) and generalized anxiety disorder (mental illness defined by
feelings of uneasiness, worry and fear). Record review of Resident #44's Quarterly MDS assessment dated
[DATE] did not indicate he received hospice services. Record review of Resident #44's Order Summary
dated 01/05/2026 indicated he had an order to admit to hospice for diagnosis of chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease with a start date of 10/03/2025. Record review of Resident #44's care plan reviewed
12/23/2025 indicated he required hospice as evidenced by a terminal illness of chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease and cancer. Record review of Resident #44's hospice documents indicated an
admission date of 09/05/2025. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 11:56 AM, the MDS Coordinator said
she completed Resident #6's and Resident #44's MDS assessments. The MDS Coordinator said Resident
#44 went on hospice in September 2025, so his MDS should have reflected he was on hospice. The MDS
Coordinator said it was not coded accurately because it was a data entry error. The MDS Coordinator said
Resident #6's MDS assessment should have reflected she was PASRR positive. The MDS Coordinator said
she was aware Resident #6 was PASRR positive, and it was an oversight that she coded her MDS
assessment incorrectly. The MDS Coordinator said regional provided oversight by doing spot checks, but
not every MDS assessment was reviewed. The MDS Coordinator said it was important for PASRR status to
be coded accurately to ensure the residents received the needed services. The MDS Coordinator said the
hospice not coded accurately would affect the residents' care plan. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at
12:36 PM, the Administrator said he expected the MDS assessments to be completed accurately. The
Administrator said the MDS Coordinator was responsible and the corporate MDS nurse completed audits to
ensure she completed them accurately. The Administrator said not coding the MDS assessments correctly
could affect the residents' function and diagnoses. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 2:31 PM, the
Regional Compliance Nurse said they did not have a policy for MDS accuracy that they followed the RAI.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to refer all Level II residents and all residents
with newly evident or possible serious mental disorder, intellectual disability, or a related condition for Level
II resident review upon a significant change in status assessment for 1 of 8 residents (Resident #38)
reviewed for PASRR services. Resident #38 had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder but did not have a Level II
evaluation. This deficient practice could place residents at risk of not receiving appropriate services to meet
their individual needs.The findings were: Record review of Resident #38's face sheet, dated 01/06/2026,
revealed the resident was a [AGE] year old female and was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and
re-admitted [DATE] from another skilled nursing facility with diagnoses that included chronic kidney disease,
Parkinson's Disease (a progressive brain disorder that affects movement), Bipolar disorder (a serious
mental illness causing mood swings), anxiety disorder (a serious mental illness causing persistent,
excessive fear and worry that interferes with daily life)r, major depressive disorder (a mood disorder causing
persistent sadness and loss of interest that impacts daily life), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), dementia (a
general term for significant cognitive decline), hypertension (high blood pressure), and heart failure (a
chronic disease that occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs). Record
review of Resident #38's EHR diagnoses list revealed the resident's diagnoses of bipolar disorder and
dementia were present at time of admission.Record review of Resident #38's comprehensive MDS
assessment dated [DATE] revealed under section A1500 PASRR that Resident #38 did not have a serious
mental illness and a level 2 evaluation was not completed. A1510 Level 2 PASRR conditions, serious
mental illness was blank. Section I6000 indicated resident did have a bipolar disorder diagnosis. Further
review of Resident #38's comprehensive assessment revealed a BIMS Score of 11 indicating moderate
cognitive impairment. Record review of Resident #38's care plan revealed a focus initiated on 12/19/2025
that resident had a mood problem related to bipolar disorder and impaired cognitive function/dementia or
impaired thought processes. Record review of Resident #38's PASRR (Preadmission Screening and
Resident Review) Level 1 screening completed by the referring entity, a nursing facility, and dated
12/04/2025 did not reflect Resident #38 had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder or an indicator that Resident
#38 had a mental illness. Record review of Resident #38's PASRR Level 1 screening completed on 5/22/23
did not reflect Resident #38 had a diagnosis of Psychosis or an indicator that Resident #38 had a mental
illness.Record review of Resident #38's EHR on 01/05/2026 revealed a corrected Level 1 screening was
not completed and no Level 2 PASRR evaluation was completed.Observation and interview of Resident
#38 on 01/04/2025 at 10:51 a.m. revealed resident presented alert, oriented to person, general place.
Presented clean, odor free, appropriately dressed. Responded appropriately to direct questions, limited
responses to short phrase answers. Resident #38 did not feel she was missing any services but was
unsure what was available to her under PASRR services.In an interview on 01/05/2026 at 5:22 p.m. with the
MDS Nurse revealed that she was responsible for PASRR screenings and had been in this position since
August 2025. The MDS Nurse stated that Level 1 on admission for Resident #38 did not indicate a positive
PASRR, a PASRR Evaluation (PE2) was never completed. The MDS Nurse stated that once the qualifying
diagnosis of bipolar disorder was identified, a PASRR Evaluation should have been completed and
submitted to the Local Intellectual and Developmental Disability Authority (LIDDA) to determine if the
resident was eligible for specialized services. The MDS Nurse stated that she was not aware the PASRR
Level 1 Evaluation was incorrect, and because of this finding, and based on this finding, she would initiate a

In an interview with the Administrator on 01/07/2026 at 10:25 a.m., the Administrator stated that he expects
nursing staff to properly identify and code resident status to ensure they receive the appropriate services
under the PASRR program. Failure to provide these services could cause the resident to decline. The
Administrator stated the nursing team was responsible for ensuring accurate coding for PASRR residents
and he, as the Administrator, was ultimately responsible for ensuring the staff are competent in their job
duties. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 2:30 p.m., the DON stated she has a general understanding of
PASRR services, but the MDS Nurse is responsible for reviewing the PASRR Level 1's on admission and
submitting the PASRR Evaluations to determine eligibility. The DON stated that failure to ensure PASRR
Evaluations were submitted could cause the eligible resident not to receive the care they may need and the
care services they are eligible for. The DON stated that she was responsible for the accuracy of the PASRR
program in the facility. Review of a facility policy, titled, PASRR Level 1 Screen Policy and Procedure, dated
03/06/19, indicated, Policy: It is the policy of Creative Solutions in Healthcare facilities to obtain a PASRR
Level 1 screening form from the RE (referring entity) prior to admission to the NF. The PASRR Level1 will be
submitted via Simple Long-Term Care timely per PASRR Regulatory timeframes. PASRR is a federally
mandated program requiring all states to pre-screen all individuals seeking admission to a
Medicaid-certified nursing facility, regardless of payor source or age. The PASRR Program is important
because it provides options for individuals to choose where they live, who they live with, and the training
and therapy they need to live as independently as possible.PASRR Program has 3 Goals:1. To identify
individuals with MI, ID, or DD/RC (this includes adults and children).2. To ensure appropriate placement,
whether in a community or in a Nursing Facility.3. To ensure individuals receive the required services for
their MI, ID, or DD.Procedure:1. The Facility Admissions process will ensure a PL1 Screening Form is
obtained from the RE on day of admission or prior to admission. A PL1 is obtained for every individual,
regardless of payment type. 2. The PL1 Screening Form is completed by the RE (referring entity) using the
paper copy of the PL1 Screening Form. 3. The Facility will review the PL1 Screening Form for completion
and correctness prior to admission and submit the PL1 form per regulations. Procedures: 1. The facility's
designated staff will review all potential admissions for possible positive PASARR conditions and ensure
that Centers for Medicare Services Preadmission guidelines are followed Review the PL1 Form for
completion and correctness before admission.

or notice Resident #1's right great toe re-opening. The Treatment Nurse said she should have completed
the assessment of the entire body, input orders for all areas noted, and updated Resident #1's care plan as
well. The Treatment Nurse said the failure could have caused worsening of wounds. During an interview
01/05/226 at 4:53 PM The the DON said in the past an unknown department head had been instructing the
staff to only input new skin areas in the weekly skin assessment, and she had been trying to instruct the
nurses on completing a full assessment and adding all skin issues. The DON said a wound doctor came in
on a weekly basis and completed rounds. The DON said she and the Treatment Nurse reviewed the notes
on Fridays and then input any orders or changes. The DON said the wound doctor saw Resident #1 on
1/01/26 and the facility decided he did not need the wound care doctor since Resident #1 had no pressure
wounds. The DON said when the Treatment Nurse re-assessed Resident #1, the Treatment Nurse should
have placed in the orders for wound care to Resident #1's foot. During an interview on 01/07/26 at 12:42
PM the ADON said when a nurse completed a skin assessment anything new should be in the skin
assessment, including what it looks like, drainage, and treatment. The ADON said the previous DON taught
them that. The ADON said she understood a skin assessment to be an assessment of the entire body, and
it should have been documented according to what was seen. The ADON said the failure of not completing
an accurate skin assessment could have placed a risk for skin areas being missed and worsened skin
problems. During an interview on 01/07/26 at 1:33 PM The the Administrator said he expected the skin
assessments to include all skin issues correctly and the size each week. The Administrator said the failure
placed a risk for the skin assessments not being accurate and could have caused skin issues to worsen.
During an interview on 01/07/26 at 2:54 PM The the DON said she and the ADON had discussed the
issues with the skin assessments, and she expected the nurses to assess and document all findings. The
[NAME] said the failure placed a risk for skin assessments not being completed accurately and could cause
worsening of wounds. Record review of thee facility policy Skin Assessment revised 12/24 indicated:It is the
policy of this facility to establish a method whereby nursing can assess a resident's skin integrity to allow of
appropriate intervention be initiated in a timely manner. Procedure:1. All new admits and residents returning
from a hospital stay will have a head-to-toe skin assessment completed If the facility Treatment
Nurse/designee is available he/she should complete the assessment within four (4) hours of the resident's
arrival at the facility. If the Treatment Nurse/designee isn't available then the charge nurse should complete
the assessment within four (4) hours of the resident's arrival at the facility. The charge nurse will then notify
the Treatment Nurse/designee of any skin problems noted. Complete the appropriate
attachments/assessments. The DON or designee, along with the Treatment Nurse/designee and other team
members will review for the follow-up assessment and recommendations. Any pressure ulcer should also
be care planned. Any alterations in skin integrity will be treated according to physician orders. Notify DON
and responsible family member. Documentation will then be entered into the resident's chart with the
following information. 2. All residents should have a skin assessment on a weekly basis completed in
PCC3. If the resident has any type of ulcer (pressure injury, arterial, venous, diabetic) an ulcer assessment
should be completed at least weekly.

prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the Resident environment remained
as free of accident hazards as is possible for 2 of 16 residents (Resident #16, Resident #41) reviewed for
accidents and hazards, in that: Resident #16 had an unsecured oxygen cylinder in his room. Resident #41
was utilizing a wheelchair with an unsecured seat backrest resulting in a fall. These deficient practices
placed residents at risk for injuries.The findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #16's face sheet dated 01/06/26 indicated she was a [AGE] year-old female
who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnoses of fracture of left femur, high blood pressure,
diabetes mellitus (disease where the body is unable to make insulin causing high blood sugars), and atrial
fibrillation (most common type of irregular heartbeats).
Record review of Resident #16's admission MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated she was able to
understand others, and she was able to make herself understood. The MDS also indicated she had a BIMS
score of 11 which meant she had moderate cognitive loss.
Record review of Resident #16's care plan dated 11/09/25 did not indicate Resident #16 used oxygen.
Record review of Resident #16's order summary report as of 01/06/26 did not indicate Resident #16 had an
order for oxygen.
During an observation on 01/04/26 at 9:55 AM Resident #16 had an oxygen cylinder laying in the corner of
her room against the wall. Resident #16 said she did not use oxygen, but the oxygen cylinder had been
laying there against her wall since she had been admitted in the facility on 11/09/25.
During an observation on 01/05/26 at 8:46 AM the oxygen cylinder in Resident #16's room continued to be
in the corner laying against the wall.

have been in the resident's room. She said oxygen cylinders was were supposed to be stored on the hall in
the storage room in a rack. She said the failure placed a risk for the cylinder falling or getting knocked over
and possibly exploding.
During an interview on 01/07/26 at 12:36 PM the ADON said the closet for oxygen is was where the oxygen
cylinder should have been stored. The ADON said the oxygen cylinder should not be left in the residents'
rooms propped against the wall. The ADON said the failure placed a risk for the oxygen cylinder being
knocked over and could have exploded or the resident getting injured from the oxygen cylinder falling on
her or it could have caused Resident #16 to trip over it.
During an interview on 01/07/26 at 1:27 PM the Administrator said the oxygen cylinder should have been
stored upright in the proper oxygen storage room. The Administrator said the failure placed a risk for the
cylinder falling over in Resident #16's room and it was dangerous. The Administrator said the oxygen
cylinder could have exploded.
During an interview on 01/07/26 at 2:45 PM the DON said the oxygen cylinder should not have been lying
against the wall in Resident #16's room. The DON said if Resident #16 was using the oxygen

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
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 residents requiring respiratory
care were provided such care, consistent with professional standards of practice for 1 of 3 residents
reviewed for respiratory care (Residents #26). The facility failed to ensure Resident #26's suction machine
yankauer was bagged. The facility failed to ensure Resident #26 had a physician order for the use of the
suction machine. The facility failed to ensure Resident #26 had the use of the suction machine included on
her care plan. This failure could place residents who require respiratory care at risk for respiratory infections
and exacerbation of respiratory disease. Findings Included: Record review of Resident #26's face sheet
dated 01/06/26 indicated she was a [AGE] year-old female who re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the
diagnoses of chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney function to where kidneys cannot filter waste
effectively), high blood pressure, and bipolar disorder (disease that causes extreme mood swings from high
manic to depressive lows). Record review of Resident #26's admission MDS assessment dated [DATE]
indicated she understood others and usually made herself understood. The MDS also indicated she had a
BIMS score of 11 which meant she had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS also indicated she was
dependent on staff for toileting, bathing, and transfers, and required setup assistance from staff for eating.
Record review of Resident #26's physician's order summary report as of 01/06/26 did not indicate an order
for the suction machine in Resident #26's room. Record review of Resident #26's care plan dated 09/16/25
did not indicate resident required the use of the suction machine. During an observation and interview on
01/04/26 at 9:45 AM Resident #26 was lying in her bed and had a suction machine on the dresser that was
bagged but had a used yankauer (tool used to suction a resident's mouth) connected to the suction
machine lying outside of the bag hanging on the side of the suction machine. During an observation on
01/05/26 at 8:35 AM Resident #26 was lying in her bed and the unbagged yankauer continued to hang on
the outside of the bagged suction machine on the dresser. Resident #26 said she used the suction machine
on occasions. Resident #26 said she would not want to use the suction machine if the yankauer was
hanging out and not clean. During an observation and interview on 01/07/26 at 10:45 AM RN L was shown
the suction machine and yankauer outside of the bag hanging in Resident #26's room and she said the
yankauer in Resident #26's room should have been bagged or removed after use. RN L said she had never
had to use the suction machine for Resident #26 but there should have been an order in place, and the
suction machine and use of it should have been included in Resident #26's care plan. RN L said the failure
placed a risk for infection. During an interview on 01/07/26 at 12:37 PM the ADON said the yankauer
should have been bagged while in the resident's room. The risk is was for infection from germs being in the
room. The ADON said there should have been an order for the suction machine and the suction machine
should have been care planned. the The ADON said it was important to have an order and care plan os for
any care provided by staff. The ADON said the facility had to have a physician's order and the facility
needed a care plan is to ensure the staff could provide the care and know how. During an interview on
01/07/26 at 1:28 PM the Administrator said Resident #26 should have had an order to use the suction
machine and without the order in place the machine should not have been in her room. The Administrator
said he expected the suction machine to be on Resident #26's care plan as well for care. The Administrator
said the failure placed a risk for infection control with the yankauer not being stored properly. During an
interview on 01/07/26 at 2:47 PM the DON said the suction machine should have had an order for use and
a care plan. The yankauer should have been in a clean bag and not attached to the machine. The DON said
providing care without and order paced a risk for practicing medicine;

Ensure each resident’s drug regimen must be free from unnecessary drugs.
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 each resident's drug regimen was free from
unnecessary medications. An unnecessary medication is any medication used: In excessive doses; or for
excessive duration; or without adequate monitoring; or without adequate indication for its use; or in the
presence of adverse consequences which indicate the dose should be reduced or discontinued for 1 of 8
residents (Resident #41) reviewed for unnecessary medication. The facility failed to ensure Resident #41's
protein pump inhibitor (PPI) Omeprazole had been decreased according to pharmacy recommendations
and physician's approval. This failure could place residents at risk for adverse drug reactions (unintended,
harmful events attributed to the use of medication) and providing medication without physician's
knowledge.The findings included: Record review of Resident #41's admission record, dated 01/06/2026,
revealed an [AGE] year-old admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included
atherosclerotic heart disease (the buildup of fats and other substances in and on the artery walls), diabetes
mellitus (a chronic condition where the body does not produce enough insulin leading to high blood sugar
levels), dementia (severe cognitive decline beyond normal aging), osteoporosis (a bone disease where
bones become thin, weak, and brittle due to decreased bone mass and density), dysphagia (difficulty
swallowing), major depressive disorder (a mood disorder causing persistent sadness and loss if interest),
hypertension (high blood pressure), and gout (a painful inflammatory arthritis from uric acid crystals in
joints). Record review of Resident #41's comprehensive MDS dated [DATE] revealed BIMS Score 10
indicating resident had moderate cognitive impairment, required a wheelchair for mobility, moderate
assistance in toileting, bathing, lower body dressing and transfers, supervision in bed mobility and upper
body dressing. Record review of Resident #41's care plan, revised 11/11/2025, does not address use of
PPI for acid indigestion. Record review of pharmacy recommendations dated 12/04/2025 revealed Resident
#41 had been receiving Omeprazole PPI since 01/13/2024 and long-term use has been associated with
increased risk of C.diff (stool infection), bone loss, and fractures. Pharmacy recommendation was to
decrease Omeprazole to 20mg daily. Physician Response dated 12/10/2025 indicated he agreed with this
recommendation.Record review of Resident #41's medication administration record dated
12/01/2025-01/06/2026 revealed resident received Omeprazole Capsule Delayed Release 40 mg by mouth
one time a day with order start date 01/13/2024 indicating that the physician approved pharmacy
recommendation was not followed.During an interview on 01/06/2026 at 3:29 p.m., RN C stated that the
pharmacy recommendations were completed by the administrative nurses, and the floor nurses were
advised once the updated order was in the electronic medical record. During an interview on 01/06/2026 at
5:40 p.m., the ADON stated that the pharmacy recommendations were the responsibility of the DON &
ADON and that she was unable to say why the pharmacy recommendation agreed to by the physician on
12/10/2025 was not followed for Resident #41. ADON stated that failure to follow the recommendations
once approved by the physician could result in the resident not receiving the appropriate / prescribed
medication. ADON stated that she and the DON write the new orders once the physician signs the denial or
agreement of the recommendation.During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 8:24 a.m., LVN B stated that the
ADON or DON make changes based on the pharmacy recommendations once they are signed by the
physicians and tell the nurse when completed to put on the 24-hour report. LVN B stated that the charge
nurse does not see the actual recommendations or contact the physician for approval or denial. During an
interview on 01/07/2026 at 10:25 a.m., the Administrator stated that the nursing staff and ultimately the
DON were responsible for ensuring that the pharmacy recommendations once completed by the physician
are put in place and that he expected the nursing administration to monitor and

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure all drugs were stored in a locked
compartment, only accessible by authorized personnel, and labeled and dated correctly for 1 of 27
residents (Resident #26) observed for medication storage. 1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #26 did
not have a bottle of normal saline, a bottle of wound cleanser spray, a tube of zinc oxide protectant, and 2
tubes of zinc oxide silicone cream (medications used for wound care and barrier cream used for wound
prevention) in a mauve basin on top of her personal refrigerator in her room. These failures could place
residents at risk for obtaining injury or harm from misuse.Findings include: Record review of Resident #26's
face sheet dated [DATE] indicated she was a [AGE] year-old female who re-admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with the diagnoses of chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney function to where kidneys
cannot filter waste effectively), high blood pressure, and bipolar disorder (disease that causes extreme
mood swings from high manic to depressive lows). Record review of Resident #26's admission MDS
assessment dated [DATE] indicated she understood others and usually made herself understood. The MDS
also indicated she had a BIMS score of 11 which meant she had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS
also indicated she was dependent on staff for toileting, bathing, and transfers, and required setup
assistance from staff for eating. Record review of Resident #26's care plan dated [DATE] indicated she had
impaired vision and impaired cognitive function with interventions in place to provide medications as
ordered. Record review of Resident #26's order summary report dated as of [DATE] indicated she had

date.May apply barrier cream to Bilateral buttocks as needed every shift with a start date of [DATE] and no
end date. During an observation on [DATE] at 9:45 AM Resident #26 had a bottle of normal saline, a bottle
of wound cleanser spray, a tube of zinc oxide protectant, and 2 tubes of silicone cream in the mauve basin
on top of Resident #26's personal refrigerator in her room. During an observation on [DATE] at 8:35 AM
Resident #26 continued to have a bottle of normal saline, a bottle of wound cleanser spray, a tube of zinc
oxide protectant, and 2 tubes of silicone cream in the mauve basin on top of fridge in her room. During an
interview on [DATE] at 1:18 PM RN C said none of the medications should have been left in Resident #26's
room. RN C said all staff were responsible for ensuring no medications were in residents' rooms. RN C said
the failure placed a risk for Resident #26, family, or other residents getting the medication and misusing or
harming themselves. During an interview on [DATE] at 1:33 PM the Administrator said all medications
should be stored in medication carts. The Administrator said the failure of leaving the medications in the
room placed a risk for Resident #26 using and not knowing how to use the medications correctly and the
failure also placed a risk for wandering residents getting the medications and misusing them. During an
interview on [DATE] at 2:50 PM the DON said none of the medications should have been left in Resident
#26's room. The DON said the wound care medications should have been kept in the medication cart with
Resident #26's name and date they were opened on them. The DON said the failure placed a risk for
Resident #26 or any other residents getting the medications and using, or the medications could have
expired, and no one would have known. Record review of the facility policy Medication storage in the facility
dated 3-2025 indicated: Medications and biologicals are stored safely, securely, and properly following
manufacturer's recommendations or those of the supplier. The medication supply is accessible only to

Ensure food and drink is palatable, attractive, and at a safe and appetizing temperature.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to provide food that was palatable,
attractive, and at a safe and appetizing temperature for 1 of 1 meal (lunch meal) reviewed for food and
nutrition services. The facility failed to ensure dietary staff provided food that had an appetizing temperature
on 01/04/2026. This failure could place residents who ate food from the kitchen at risk of weight loss,
altered nutritional status, and diminished quality of life. Findings included: During an interview on
01/04/2026 at 10:24 AM, Resident #4 said the food was cold when she received it. During an interview on
01/04/2026 at 10:55 AM, Resident #30 said sometimes the food was cold when he received it. During an
observation and interview on 01/04/2026 at 12:53 PM, the lunch tray was sampled by the Dietary Manager
and three surveyors. The lunch tray sampled consisted of chicken fried chicken, corn, and mashed
potatoes. The chicken fried chicken was lukewarm, and the mashed potatoes and corn were cold. The
Dietary Manager said some people may have wanted the chicken fried chicken to be hotter. The Dietary
Manager said the corn needed to be a little warmer because it was not hot. The Dietary Manager said the
mashed potatoes needed to be warmer, as they had cooled down a little bit. During an interview on
01/04/2026 at 2:38 PM, Resident #23 said sometimes when she received her food it was cold. During an
interview on 01/04/2026 at 3:46 PM, Resident #13 said the food was cold because it took so long to pass
out the food to the halls from the time the food was in the kitchen. During an interview on 01/05/2026 at
6:02 PM, [NAME] A said she had not received any complaints from the residents about the food being cold.
[NAME] A said the residents were supposed to be served a hot meal. [NAME] A said she was not sure how
the residents receiving a cold meal could affect them. During an interview on 01/07/2025 at 11:30 AM, the
Dietary Manager said she received cold food complaints from the residents. The Dietary Manager said the
food was hot when it left the kitchen, but sometimes the food was not passed out in a timely manner by the
staff. The Dietary Manager said she had reported the cold food complaints and the food not being passed
out in a timely manner to the Administrator, DON, and previous Administrators. The Dietary Manager said
she had suggested closed carts to keep the meals warmer but did not receive any resolution. The Dietary
Manager said the food being cold could make the residents sick or the residents would not eat it. During an
interview on 01/07/2025 at 12:30 PM, the Administrator said he expected the food to be served hot to the
residents. The Administrator said the Dietary Manager was responsible for ensuring this happened. When
asked if the Dietary Manager had told him about the cold food complaints and the trays not being passed
out in a timely manner, the Administrator said when the food came out of the kitchen, the nursing
department needed to be involved to make sure the food was taken to the residents in a timely manner, so
the residents could receive their meals at the appropriate temperatures. The Administrator said if the food
was cold, it was not going to taste good. Record review of the facility's policy titled, Preparation of Foods,
from the Dietary Services Policy & Procedure Manual 2012, indicated, We will establish safe and nutritional
preparation of food. Food is to be prepared in such a manner as to maximize flavor, appearance, and
nutritional value.2. All food will be prepared by methods that preserve nutritive value, flavor, and
appearance with a variety of color, and will be attractively served at the proper temperature and in a form to
meet the individual needs of the resident.

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 for food service safety in 1 of 1 kitchen reviewed for dietary
services. The facility failed to ensure regular texture corn, pureed corn, and pureed chicken strips were held
at the proper temperature on 01/04/2025. This failure could place residents at risk for foodborne illness.
Findings included: During an observation on 01/04/2026 at 11:53 AM, temperatures were taken of the food
on the steam table by [NAME] A. The regular texture corn was 130 F, the pureed corn was 130 F, the
pureed chicken strips were 132 F. During an interview on 01/05/2026 at 6:02 PM, [NAME] A said food
should be held at least at 140 F. [NAME] A said if the food was not at 140 F, the food should be reheated.
[NAME] A said she did not think about reheating the food before serving it because she was just trying to
start serving the trays. [NAME] A said not holding food at the correct temperatures could cause the food to
be bad. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 11:35 AM, the Dietary Manager said food should be held at
or above 140 F. The Dietary Manager said she liked for it to be at 165 F. The Dietary Manager said if the
food temperature was not correct the food should be pulled off, and it should have been reheated to ensure
it reached the appropriate temperature. The Dietary Manager said she had not observed the food
temperatures to be incorrect. The Dietary Manager said the food not being held at the proper temperature
could make the residents sick. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 12:33 PM, the Administrator said he
expected the food to be held above the recommended level. The Administrator said the Dietary Manager
and the dietary staff should ensure they were holding the food at the proper temperatures. The
Administrator said the food not held at the proper temperature could affect the quality of the food the
residents received. Record review of the facility's policy titled, Daily Food Temperature Control, revised
04/09/2025 indicated, We will assure that food is served at a safe temperature. Temperatures of all hot and
cold food shall be taken prior to every meal service and recorded on the Temperature Log. This is done to
help ensure that food is safe and is served within acceptable ranges.4. All hot foods shall be cooked and
held for service at temperatures of 140 degrees F or above. 5. Any hot or cold food which does not meet
the minimum acceptable temperature shall be heated to a temperature of 165 degrees F and held at least
15 seconds.

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 enact a policy regarding use and storage of
foods brought to residents by family and other visitors to ensure safe and sanitary storage, handling, and
consumption, for 3 (Resident #11, Resident #29, Resident #52) of 8 residents reviewed, in that: The facility
failed to ensure the thermometers inside Resident #11's, Resident #29's and Resident #52's personal
refrigerators were present and functioning properly and the staff recorded the accurate temperatures of the
refrigerator for two months. This failure could place residents at risk of foodborne illness due to consuming
foods which might be spoiled. The findings included: Record review of Resident #11's face sheet, dated
01/05/2026, revealed an [AGE] year-old admitted [DATE] and readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses that
included heart failure (a condition that occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood for the body's
needs), dementia (general term for severe cognitive decline), hypothyroidism (a condition that occurs when
the thyroid gland doesn't make enough thyroid hormones to meet the body's needs), hypertension (high
blood pressure), atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm that increases risk for stroke due to blood
pooling and clotting) and major depressive disorder (a mood disorder causing persistent sadness, and loss
of interest). Record review of Resident #11's comprehensive MDS, dated [DATE], revealed a BIMS score of
6 indicting Resident #11 had severe cognitive impairment. Resident #11 had lower extremity range of
motion impairment, required a wheelchair for mobility, supervision in toileting, upper body dressing,
moderate assistance in bathing, lower body dressing, bed mobility and transfers. During an observation and
interview on 01/04/2026 at 10:15 a.m., Resident #11 allowed surveyor to observe personal refrigerator.

knowledge, no one checks the refrigerator temperature, and he takes care of the refrigerator items himself.
Resident #11 stated he thinks there used to be a thermometer in the refrigerator. Record review of
Resident #29's face sheet, dated 01/07/2026, revealed a [AGE] year-old male admitted [DATE] and
readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses that included peripheral vascular disease (a circulation disorder affecting
blood vessels outside of the heart), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a progressive lung condition
that makes breathing difficult), chronic kidney disease (a gradual loss of kidney function), chronic
lymphocytic leukemia (a slow-growing blood cancer), diabetes mellitus type II (a chronic condition leading
to high blood sugar levels), hypertension (high blood pressure), atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat)
Record review of Resident #29's comprehensive MDS dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score 11 that
indicated moderate cognitive impairment, had lower extremity impairment and required a wheelchair for
mobility, maximum assistance in bathing, lower body dressing, moderate assistance in upper body
dressing, and was totally dependent in toileting, bed mobility and transfers. During an observation and
interview on 01/04/2026 at 10:25 a.m., Resident #29 allowed surveyor to observe personal refrigerator.
Observation revealed refrigerator contained undated food items and no thermometer was visible. Resident
#29 stated his family and the Activity Director assist with personal needs and shopping as needed.
Resident #29 stated he did not know who checked the temperature of the refrigerator and could not recall
the last time he saw a thermometer in the refrigerator. Record review of Resident #52's face sheet, dated
01/07/2026, revealed an [AGE] year-old male admitted [DATE] and readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses that
included chronic kidney disease (a condition that occurs when the kidneys cannot filter blood well, leading

all three refrigerators from 01/04/2026-01/06/2026. During an interview on 01/05/2026 at 8:24 a.m., LVN B
stated that she does not check the personal refrigerators, and she was not sure who checks them. During
an interview on 01/07/2026 at 8:35 a.m., MA D stated that the maintenance department was responsible for
checking the resident's' personal refrigerators and noted that she never opens them. During an interview on
01/07/2026 at 8:42 a.m., Housekeeper F stated that she does not check their refrigerators for the residents
for cleanliness or temperature. Housekeeper F stated she believed her supervisor was responsible for the
refrigerators. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 9:15 a.m., CNA H stated she believed the housekeeping
staff were responsible for checking the refrigerator temperatures and cleaning the refrigerators. During an
interview on 01/07/26 at 9:50 a.m., the Housekeeping Supervisor stated that the families were responsible
for maintaining the refrigerators, but she checked them when she cleans the rooms. The Housekeeping
Supervisor stated she keeps a log of the temperatures and will try to clean them out but stated that a lot of
times, the residents do not let me. The Housekeeping Supervisor stated that it was important to take out old
food items because they could make the residents sick and that she would notify the Administrator of any
residents who do not allow her to clean their refrigerator. During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 10:25 a.m.,
the Administrator stated that the facility does allow long term residents to have a personal refrigerator in
their rooms. The Administrator stated that he expects the administrative staff who complete Champion
Rounds (daily room checks) to monitor the refrigerator for proper functioning, temperature and ensure no
spoiled food items are present. The Administrator stated he will assist with any residents who refuse to let
staff check or clean their refrigerators. The Administrator stated adverse effects of not having refrigerator
temperatures monitored could result in resident eating spoiled food items causing him/her to become ill.
During an interview on 01/07/2026 at 2;30 p.m., the DON stated that she was aware the residents were
allowed to have a personal refrigerator and that she believed housekeeping was responsible for monitoring
temperatures and cleanliness. The DOM stated this was a concern she had when she was hired when she
learned that not all of the refrigerators had a thermometer and accurate temperatures. The DON stated that
failure to monitor the temperature could result in the residents consuming spoiled food items that would
cause them to become sick. Record review of facility Food and Nutrition Services policy, revised 04/13/2022
revealed resident and/or family members are responsible for monitoring the interior temperature of personal
refrigerators to ensure all foods are stored at a safe temperature

services. The facility failed to obtain Resident #44's most current Form 3071 Texas Medicaid Hospice
Program Individual Election/Cancellation/Update, Form 3074, Physician Certification of Terminal Illness,
Hospice Nurses' Notes, and Hospice Physician Orders. This deficient practice could place residents who
receive hospice services at risk of receiving inadequate end-of-life care due to a lack of documentation,
coordination of care and communication of resident needs. Findings included: Record review of a face
sheet dated [DATE] indicated Resident #44 was a [AGE] year-old-male initially admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses which included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(chronic inflammatory lung condition that affects the respiratory system). Record review of Resident #44's
Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated he was understood by others and understood others.
The MDS assessment indicated Resident #44 had a BIMS score of 13, which indicated his cognition was
intact. The MDS assessment indicated he required supervision or touching assistance for eating, toileting
hygiene, partial/moderate assistance for personal hygiene, and substantial/maximal assistance for
showering/bathing himself. The MDS assessment did not indicate he received hospice services. Record
review of Resident #44's Order Summary dated [DATE] indicated he had an order to admit to hospice for
diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with a start date of [DATE]. Record review of Resident
#44's care plan reviewed [DATE] indicated he required hospice as evidenced by a terminal illness of chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease and cancer. Record review of Resident #44's hospice binder did not
indicate:Form 3071 Texas Medicaid Hospice Program Individual Election/Cancellation/UpdateForm 3074,
Physician Certification of Terminal IllnessHospice Nurses' NotesHospice Physician Orders. During an
interview on [DATE] at 5:02 PM, the Hospice Case Manager said Resident #44 was on hospice services.
She said the Hospice Marketer or herself took required hospice documents to the facility. The Hospice
Case Manager said she usually did not take the nurses' notes to the facility. She said Resident #44 went on
hospice services in September of 2025 and then re-admitted to services on [DATE] or [DATE] due to a
discharge because he went to the hospital. The Hospice Case Manager said she thought she had taken all
the required hospice documents for Resident #44 to the facility. She said it was important for the facility to
have the required hospice documents to ensure they were all in line with the plan of care. During an
interview on [DATE] at 5:39 PM, the ADON said the DON was the one making sure the hospice brought the
required documents to the facility. The ADON said it was important to have hospice documents in the facility
to be prepared for what the residents might need when they expired. During an interview on [DATE] at
12:38 PM, the Administrator said he expected all hospice documents to be in the facility to be able to
provide appropriate care to the residents. The Administrator said the DON and the nursing department was
responsible for ensuring the hospice documents were in the facility and hospice collaboration occurred. The
Administrator said it was important so they knew what they had to do and what they should do for the
residents' care plans. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:11 PM, the DON said the ADON and she were
responsible for ensuring the required hospice documents were in the facility. The DON said she had not
checked the hospice binders to see if the required hospice documents were in the hospice binders. The

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 maintain an infection prevention and control
program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 3 of 6 residents (Resident #1,
Resident #6, and Resident #26) reviewed for infection control. 1. The facility failed to ensure CNA K
performed proper glove changes while providing incontinent care to Resident #6 on 01/05/2026. 2.The
facility failed to ensure the Treatment nurse and the DON used PPE while providing wound care for
Resident #1 on 01/05/26. 3.The facility failed to ensure Resident #1 and Resident #26 had enhanced
barrier precaution signage and PPE available in a cart for the staff to be aware of EBP (enhanced barrier
precautions). 4. The facility failed to ensure Resident #1 had an order in place for enhanced barrier
precautions. These failures could place residents at risk for cross contamination and the spread of
infection.Findings included:
Residents Affected - Some
1. Record review of Resident #6's face sheet dated 01/06/2026 indicated she was an [AGE] year-old female
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted [DATE] with diagnoses which included cerebral
palsy (a group of neurological disorders that appear in infancy or early childhood and permanently affect
body movement and muscle coordination).
Record review of Resident #6's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated she was understood by
others and understood others. The MDS assessment indicated Resident #6 had a BIMS score of 15, which
indicated her cognition was intact. The MDS assessment indicated Resident #6 required
substantial/maximal assistance with toileting hygiene. The MDS assessment indicated Resident #6 was
frequently incontinent of urine and bowel.
Record review of Resident #6's care plan reviewed 12/23/2025 indicated she had frequent bladder
incontinence to provide incontinent care at least every 2 hours and apply moisture barrier after each
episode.
During an observation and interview on 01/05/2026 at 8:32 AM, CNA K provided incontinent care to
Resident #6. CNA K put on gloves wiped Resident #6's front, then turned her on her side and cleaned her
buttocks. CNA K grabbed the clean brief and put it on Resident #6. CNA K did not change her gloves prior
to applying the clean brief. CNA K proceeded to dress Resident #6 still using the dirty gloves. After
assisting Resident #6 with dressing herself CNA K grabbed Resident #6's wheelchair and walker with the
dirty gloves. CNA K assisted Resident #6 into her wheelchair, and then CNA K looked in Resident #6's
drawers for her comb. CNA K touched the drawers with the dirty gloves. CNA K found the comb and
continued to brush Resident #6's hair, still using the same dirty gloves she used to provide the incontinent
care. CNA K gathered the trash and dirty linen, placed Resident #6's overbed table in front of her. CNA K
removed her gloves, disposed of the trash/linen outside of Resident #6's room, and then performed hand
hygiene in the hallway. CNA K said when providing incontinent care gloves should be changed after wiping
the resident and before the clean items were touched. CNA K said gloves should be changed and hand
hygiene performed at the end of the incontinent care prior to dressing and assisting the resident with care.
CNA K said she did not perform hand hygiene properly or change gloves appropriately because she was
nervous. CNA K said not changing gloves during incontinent care could result in infections, and touching
the residents' personal items with dirty gloves could result in germs traveling.

checks when the CNAs started their first shift. The ADON said they completed the proficiency checks on
the CNAs recently and there was no other oversight provided. The ADON said during incontinent care
gloves should be changed and hand hygiene performed after cleaning the front area and when going to
different areas of the body or if the gloves were visibly soiled. The ADON said gloves should be changed
and hand hygiene performed prior to applying the clean brief. The ADON said gloves should be changed
and hand hygiene performed before helping the residents with their personal care. The ADON said when
she observed CNA K for her proficiency check there were no issues, and if there were, they were corrected
at that moment. The ADON said not changing gloves properly, not performing hand hygiene during
incontinent care could result in infections and cross contamination. The ADON said touching clean items
with dirty gloves could result in the spread of infection.
During an interview on 01/07/2025 at 12:41 PM, the Administrator said he expected all the staff to know
what they had to do when providing incontinent care. The Administrator said he expected them to change
gloves when required. The Administrator said nurse management should ensure they were making rounds
and monitoring what the CNAs were doing by occasional pop ins. Nurse Management should make sure
the CNAs were doing incontinent care the correct way, and if they noticed incontinent care was completed
incorrectly, they should fix it right away. The Administrator said not changing gloves properly was an
infection control issue, and the staff should make sure they were hand washing to prevent the spread of
infection.
During an interview on 01/07/2025 at 2:13 PM, the DON said gloves should be changed and hand hygiene
performed after wiping the residents, when touching anything clean, and when they were finished putting
on the clean brief. The DON said CNA K should have changed gloves prior to touching the residents'
personal items. The DON said gloves were not required to comb the resident's hair, so CNA K should have
removed her gloves. The DON said the ADON and she conducted random audits to ensure incontinent care
was provided correctly. The DON said she had not noticed any issues with incontinent care. The DON said
not changing gloves properly during incontinent care and touching the residents' personal items with dirty
gloves could transfer bacteria.
2. Record review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 01/06/26 indicated he was an [AGE] year-old male who

causing persistent sadness, loss of interest, and life impairment), chronic heart failure(long term condition
in which the heart does not pump blood effectively), chronic kidney disease(loss of kidney function where
kidneys cannot filter waste from blood), and high blood pressure.
Record review of Resident #1's admission MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated he was understood by
others and made himself understood. The MDS also indicated he had a BIMS score of 8 which meant he
had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS also indicated he required maximal assistance from staff for
bathing, transfers, bed mobility, and toileting, and setup assistance with eating.
Record review of Resident #1's undated care plan indicated he had actual impairment to skin integrity
related to a non-pressure area to right great toe and stage 2 intact blister to the top of his right foot with
interventions in place to provide treatment per orders, to follow facility policies/protocols for the
prevention/treatment of skin breakdown, but the care plan did not include enhanced barrier precautions.

responsible for ensuring the EBP signage and carts were in place.
During an interview on 01/07/26 at 2:51 PM The DON said EBP should have been used with foley catheter
care, intravenous line care, and when residents have wounds. The DON said Resident #1 and Resident #26
should have EBP signage and PPE carts outside of their rooms. The DON said the failure placed a risk for
infection. The DON said the DON and ADON were responsible for ensuring the EBP signage and the carts

side, and she forgot about it.
Record review of the facility policy Enhanced Barrier Precautions undated indicated: Multidrug-resistant
organism (MDRO) transmission is common in long term care (LTC) facilities. Many residents in nursing
homes are at increased risk of becoming colonized and developing infections with MDROs. Enhanced
Barrier Precautions (EBP) refer to an infection control intervention designed to reduce transmission of
multidrug-resistant organisms that employ targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident care
activities. EBP are used in conjunction with standard precautions and expand the use of PPE to donning of
gown and gloves during high-contact resident care activities that provide opportunities for transfer of
MDROs to staff hands and clothing. EBP are indicated for residents with any of the following:
Colonization with a CDC-targeted MDRO when Contact Precautions do not otherwise apply (see MDRO list
on page 3); or
Wounds and/or indwelling medical devices even if the resident is not known to be infected or colonized with
a MDRO. Communication to Staff the facility will utilize postings outside the room and Point Click Care to
communicate to staff if a resident requires EBP.
Record review of the facility's policy titled, Perineal Care, effective 05/11/2022 indicated, 10) Perform hand
