F 0912 Level of Harm - Potential for minimal harm Residents Affected - Some Provide rooms that are at least 80 square feet per resident in multiple rooms and 100 square feet for single resident rooms. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to have resident rooms that measured at least 80 square feet per resident in multiple resident bedrooms for 19 of 26 resident rooms (Rooms 401-405, 407, 410-414, and 501-508) reviewed for square footage. Resident rooms 401-405, 407, 410-414, and 501-508 measured less than the required 80 square feet per resident. This failure could affect residents negatively by restricting the amount of room the residents had for needed resident care equipment, personal furnishings, and personal belongings, and could result in feelings of frustration, confined space, and a decreased quality of life. The findings were: In an interview on 6/16/23 at 9:25 a.m. the Administrator stated she wanted to continue the room waiver for all rooms not meeting the square footage requirement. Record review of the Bed Classification form 3740 signed by the Administrator on 6/13/23 revealed rooms 401, 402, 403, 404, 405, 407, 410, 411, 412, 413, 414, 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506, 507, and 508 were all certified rooms for two beds each. Record review of the current resident roster dated 6/13/23 revealed the rooms that did not meet double occupancy room size and were currently being used as double occupancy rooms were 401, 410, and 501-508. Observation and interview on 6/16/23 at 11:30am 12:15 p.m. with the Administrator revealed rooms 401, 402, 403, 404, 405, 407, 410, 411, 412, 413, 414, 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506, 507, and 508 measurements were as follows: room [ROOM NUMBER]: 12 feet 9 inches x 11 feet 9 inches = 150 (approximately 75 square feet per resident). room [ROOM NUMBER]: 12 feet 9 inches x 11 feet 9 inches = 150 (approximately 75 square feet per resident). room [ROOM NUMBER]: 12 feet 9 inches x 11 feet 9 inches = 150 (approximately 75 square feet per resident).
