This survey cited 2 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0558 Reasonably accommodate the needs and preferences of each resident. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident resided and received services in the facility with reasonable accommodation of resident needs and preferences for 2 (Resident #1 and Resident #2) of 10 residents reviewed for call lights. Staff failed to ensure Resident #1 and Resident #2's, call buttons were within reach. This failure could affect 2 residents who resided on Station 1 at risk for decreased quality of life, self-worth, and dignity. Findings included: Review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 01/11/2024 reflected a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on 01/09/2024 with diagnoses of Chronic Respiratory Failure with Hypercapnia (May occur either acutely, insidiously, or acutely upon chronic carbon dioxide retention); Unspecified sequelae of cerebral infarction (Residual effects or conditions produced after the acute phase of an illness or injury has ended); Dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere, unspecified severity, without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and anxiety (Mild cognitive impairment has yet to be diagnosed as a specific type of dementia. Multiple types of mental and physical conditions are present). Review of Resident #1's Comprehensive Care Plan revised 12/23/23 reflected Resident #1 was at risk for falls related to cognitive impairment and physical impairment. Review of Resident #1's Quarterly MDS Assessment (Minimum Data Set) dated 01/11/2024 revealed Resident #1 to be severely cognitively impaired. Resident's BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) Score was: 07/15. Observation on 01/11/2024 at 1:30 pm revealed Resident #1 was in her bed and her call light was attached to the privacy curtain across from her bed. Resident #1 could not reach the call light if she needed to push the button. On 01/11/2024 at 1:30 pm an interview with Resident #1 revealed that the call light was always (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0558 attached to the privacy curtain. Resident #1 revealed that she can't reach it from her bed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Review of Resident #2's face sheet dated 01/11/2024 reflected an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of acute respiratory failure with hypoxia (When the respiratory system cannot adequately provide oxygen to the body); Chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure (A chronic condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as well as it should); Unspecified dementia, unspecified severity, without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and anxiety(a person is presenting signs and symptoms of a dementia diagnosis, but they lack any symptoms of behavioral disturbances). Residents Affected - Few Review of Resident #2's Comprehensive Care Plan revised 11/02/2023 reflected Resident #2 had a history of falling related to impaired mobility and unsteady gait. She had poor safety awareness and was very impulsive. Review of Resident #2's Quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set) assessment dated [DATE] reflected the resident was severely cognitively impaired.

Interview with Resident #2 revealed that she was doing fine and did not need anything. Resident was not aware her call cord was in her drawer and out of reach. She tried to reach for it but could not grab it. Resident #2 made no comment related to the call light out of reach. IIn an interview on 01/11/2024 at 1:30 PM with the ADM revealed, he was not aware the call lights were not within reach of the residents. The ADM stated that if the call light was not within reach the resident may try and get up and fall. In an interview on 01/11/2024 at 1:45 PM with CNA A revealed that she did not know the call lights were not within reach for Resident #1 or Resident #2. CNA A revealed that Resident #1 does get up and walk around. CNA A revealed resident could try and get up and fall, may be sick and need assistance, or may just need water.
