The cord turns the light on above his bed. It was approximately 75% torn off. Resident #72 said had tied his call light cord to the torn light pull string so he could reach it from his bed, so he didn't have to stand up. During an interview on 12/11/24 at 09:42 a.m., the Maintenance Director said he did not know that resident #72 had a broken pull cord for his light. He said if he had known he would fix it as that was a simple problem. He said that he had issues with staff reporting in their maintenance log broken items that need fixed.

F 0641 Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment. 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 that resident assessments accurately reflected the resident's status for 1 (Resident #20) of 12 residents reviewed for accuracy of resident assessments. Residents Affected - Few The facility failed to ensure that Resident #20's MDS quarterly assessment accurately reflected the resident had 5 injections of insulin and had no UTI (urinary tract infection). This failure put residents at risk for not receiving care and services needed. Findings included: Record review of Resident #20's face sheet dated 12/09/2024 revealed she was a 77-years-old female, admitted to the facility on [DATE]. She had diagnoses of depression, obesity, glaucoma (a group of eye diseases that can lead to damage of the optic nerve) Record review of the quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #20 had a BIMS of 15, which indicated no cognitive impairment. The MDS also revealed Resident #20 received injections of insulin for 5 days in the prior 7 days. The MDS was not coded for UTI. Record review of the consolidated orders dated 11/2024 indicated Resident #20 was started on Rocephin 1 gram intramuscularly daily on 11/15/2024. There were no orders for insulin. Record review of Resident #20's MAR dated 11/2024 indicated Resident #20 received injections 11/15/2024 daily through 11/24/2024 of antibiotic medication. The MAR had no orders for insulin. Record review of a urinalysis for Resident #20 indicated she had a UTI with 3 separate organisms cultured on 11/15/2024. During an interview on 12/11/2024 at 10:20 a.m., the MDS Coordinator stated she made a mistake by claiming 5 days of injections of insulin for Resident #20. She stated most people that got injections received insulin and it was just an oversight. She stated she had not claimed UTI because she felt it did not meet criteria for a UTI. She stated Resident #20 only had one day of symptoms. She stated this failure would not affect the resident in a negative. During an interview on 12/11/2024 at 2:00 p.m., the DON stated the MDS was important to be coded accurately because it was what was care planned about the resident and that was how the staff knew the individual needs of each resident. She stated Resident #20 was positive for a UTI in November 2024 because she complained of burning and itching with urination and tested positive for multiple bacteria. She stated that UTI should have been claimed as a diagnosis on the MDS. She stated not coding that or the antibiotics was not an accurate reflection of the resident because she was someone with frequent UTI's. During an interview on 12/11/2024 at 2:15 p.m., the ADM stated she expected the MDS to be coded accurately so the staff new the correct way to care for each resident individually. She stated it was an oversight on the part of the MDS nurse and it was corrected before the interview. She stated the facility followed the RAI manual for their policy on accuracy of the MDS.
