F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment, for 1 of 20 residents (Resident #52) reviewed for environment. The facility failed to ensure Resident #52's bedroom floor was clean of regurgitated food, on 6/24/2025, after it had been on the floor from 11:50 AM to 2:40 PM. This deficient practice could place residents at risk of living in an unclean and unsanitary environment which could lead to a decreased quality of life. Findings included: Record review of Resident #52's Face Sheet dated 6-26-2025 indicated a [AGE] year-old male with an initial admission date of 9-20-2023 and a re-admission date of 6-13-2025. Resident #52 had a primary diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease (a progressive degeneration of nerve cells in the brain) and secondary diagnoses of Encephalopathy (any disease or disorder that affects the function or structure of the brain, leading to altered mental status, confusion, or changes in behavior), Malignant Neoplasm of the Prostate (a cancerous tumor that develops in the prostate gland), Unspecified Dementia (a condition where cognitive decline is significant enough to interfere with daily functioning, but the specific cause or type of dementia is not clearly identified or classified), and Psychotic Disorder with Hallucinations due to known Physiological condition (a mental health condition where a person experiences hallucinations, false sensory perceptions like seeing or hearing things that aren't there, as a direct result of a recognized medical or neurological condition, and not due to a primary psychotic disorder). Record review of Resident 52's Comprehensive MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS Score of 15 indicating Resident #52 was cognitively intact. Section (I) of the MDS revealed Resident #52 had Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing where food or liquid could get stuck in the throat). Record review of Resident #52's Therapy MDS dated [DATE] revealed he had a cognitive decline, was being treated for Dysphagia because of coughing or choking during meals . and was on a mechanically altered diet. Record review of Resident #52's Care Plan dated 12-11-2023 revealed he was planned for Parkinson's Disease with interventions of Monitor/document/report to MD PRN any [signs] of aspiration or dysphagia: choking .

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few In an observation and interview on 6-24-2025 at 11:50 AM, dried food regurgitation was seen on both sides of Resident #52's bed. Resident #52 was observed to be the sole resident in his room. Resident #52 was not able to communicate how long the regurgitated food was on the floor but said it made him feel nasty because it had been there a while. In an observation on 6-24-2025 at 2:40 PM, it was witnessed that the dried regurgitated food, next to Resident #52's bed, had not been cleaned up since 11:50 AM. In an interview with CNA E, on 6-24-2025 at 2:40 PM, it was learned that CNA E had worked the hallway where Resident #52 resided and had worked at the facility for 3 weeks. CNA E said she was unaware that throw-up was on the floor in Resident #52's room. CNA E said the facility had a housekeeping department that cleaned the resident's rooms every day. CNA E said the CNAs were responsible to ensure resident's rooms were kept clean and free from food or liquids on their floors. CNA E said the potential harm to residents if their floors were not kept free of regurgitated food was a slippery floor and it could cause them to feel neglected. In an interview with LVN F, on 6-26-2025 at 1:35 PM, it was learned that LVN F was working the hallway where Resident #52 resided and had worked at the facility for 1 year. LVN F said the CNAs make rounds from time-to-time to make sure resident's rooms stay clean. LVN F said the nurses made rounds to ensure the cleanliness of resident's rooms as well. LVN F said the housekeeping department made rounds in the morning to clean resident's rooms then they were on PRN standby status to respond as needed by other staff to clean resident's rooms. LVN F said she expected the CNAs to make rounds to ensure spills and throw-up messes were cleaned in resident's rooms in a timely manner. LVN F said CNAs and housekeeping were responsible to ensure resident's rooms stay clean. LVN F said the nursing staff supervised the CNA staff. In an interview with the DON, on 6-26-2025 at 4:24 PM, it was learned the DON had worked at the facility for 6 months. The DON said the facility had a housekeeping department for cleaning, however, her expectations were for CNAs and nurses to make rounds and report debris on the floors to the housekeeping department for cleaning. The DON said her expectation was for staff to clean resident's rooms as soon as they see spills or food debris on the floors. The DON said the potential risk to residents not having throw-up cleaned off their floors, in a timely manner, was it could cause a fall or become an infection control issue. In an interview with the Administrator, on 6-26-2025 at 4:38 PM, it was stated the housekeeping depart was responsible to keep resident rooms clean. The Administrator said any staff who see food or liquid on the floor, in resident's rooms, should contact the housekeeping department for cleaning. The Administrator said floor staff and managers were supposed to make rounds to ensure floors were kept clean in a timely manner. The Administrator stated that he expected floors to not have debris on them for over an hour. The Administrator said the potential risk to residents having spills or regurgitation on their floors was not having a clean and comfortable environment. The Administrator said he was going to start in-services on timely cleaning of resident rooms. Record review of the facility's Grievance Log, for the past 90 days, revealed a complaint was made regarding the condition of a resident's room on 6-23-2025.

Open packages of food are stored in closed containers with covers or in sealed bags, and dated as to when opened . 6. When items are received from the vendor, they should be first examined for expiration date, and if an expiration date is present, it is beneficial to mark it by circling it so it is readily visible and noticeable . If an item does not have a date designated by the manufacturer as an expiration date, then the item should be dated as to when it is received, and shelf-stable items will be stored in a first in, first out manner, to be used within one year . 7. According to the USDA fact sheet on Food Product dating . products without a dated shipping label should be dated when they are received by the facility so there is a method to keep track of the age of the product. These dates do not indicate that the product is no longer safe after one year, but give a method to track the age of a product so that it can be evaluated for quality before service. 8. On perishable foods, microorganisms such as molds, yeasts, and bacteria can multiply and cause food to spoil. Spoiled foods will develop an off odor, flavor or texture due to naturally occurring spoilage bacteria. If a food has developed such spoilage characteristics, it should not be eaten . 9. Perishable and non-perishable foods are classified based on their pH and water content . These non-perishable foods are still dated when received if they do not have an expiration date and once opened, but do not need to be discarded within 7 days after opening. Perishable items that are refrigerated are dated once opened and used within 7 days (if they do not have an expiration date or best by/use by date), but non-perishable items that are refrigerated once opened should be dated when opened but do not need to be discarded until their expiration date or until the quality has deteriorated. 10. Frozen items that should be thawed before preparation should be stored under refrigeration until thawed, and should be dated with the date removed from the freezer and used within 7 days .
