F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 02:03 p.m., LVN C stated he was unable to recall how long Resident #4 had the scoop mattress. He stated he had not seen anything previously mentioned on the 24 hour report that her mattress was switched out. LVN C also had not recollection of Resident #4 falling out of her bed recently. During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 02:03 p.m., CNA A was unable to recall when Resident #4's mattress was switched out from the previous mattress. During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 2:31 p.m., the DON stated a scoop mattress was not implemented for Resident #4 as a fall risk. She believed with all the room changes, in the last couple of months, due to painting rooms was when Resident #4's mattress was switched out with the current scoop mattress. The DON stated she was moved around 02/09/2023 and they had to switch her to a couple of different rooms. The DON stated it was being switched out as we spoke. During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 6:15 p.m., the DON stated the reason for the incorrect mattress was moving her to different rooms due to the facility updating rooms by painting walls and replacing floors. She stated Resident #4 was moved to room that had a scoop mattress and it was never changed out. The DON did not believe there was a potential harm to her because this resident needed help to get in and out of bed, even with a regular mattress. During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 6:47 p.m., the Administrator was not aware of Resident #4 not having the correct mattress. He stated residents had the right to have a different mattress as long as it went alongside their level of care. He stated the potential harm, by a resident not having a mattress they liked, was loss of sleep, drowsy and maybe even behaviors. Record review of the facility policy titled Statement of Resident Rights, dated 02/2017, revealed The community should educate, encourage, and [NAME] the rights of those we serve.

This deficient practice could place residents at risk of not having sufficient room to carry out activities of daily living care, or have the room furnished as they would like and place them at risk for a decreased quality of life. The findings were: Record review of current measurements taken by Life Safety Code revealed the following: room [ROOM NUMBER], a double occupancy, measured as 74.587 sq ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a single occupancy, measured as 84.77 sq ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a single occupancy, measured as 98.5 sq. ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a triple occupancy, measured as 57.58 sq. ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a single occupancy, measured as 97.94 sq. ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a double occupancy, measured as 72.14 sq. ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a double occupancy, measured as 79.91 sq. ft. per bed; room [ROOM NUMBER], a double occupancy, measured as 79.91 sq. ft. per bed; and room [ROOM NUMBER], a double occupancy, measured as 78.21 sq. ft.

During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 6:44 p.m., the Administrator stated he wanted to continue the room waiver. The Administrator stated as long as the census permitted the facility could separate the residents into individual rooms. However, his corporate office was in the process of purchasing property for a nursing home to be built and all the residents and/or staff would move to that building. This information indicated the current facility would no longer be utilized as a nursing home at that time. The Administrator then stated they were estimated to be about 18 months away for that to occur. The Administrator stated he did not believe there was a potential harm to residents.
