required assistance with showering, dress according to climate, assist with daily hygiene, provide peri care
as indicated.
During an observation and interview on 07/07/2024 at 10:40 AM, Resident #34 said his bed linens had not
been changed in two weeks. Resident #34's linens had dirty brownish stains on the top portion, and the
pillowcase had a light browning tinge to it. There was a strong urine smell in Resident #34's bathroom.
There was dark yellow/orange colored water in the toilet. Resident #34's toilet seat lid had multiple areas
that were peeling and multiple chipped paint areas which revealed the brown wood underneath it. Resident
#34 said the toilet was hard to flush. He said he had to hold the handle down a long time to make it flush.
Resident #34 said it always smelled like urine in his bathroom. An observation was made, and there was no
hot water in Resident #34's bathroom sink (temperature of Resident #34's hot water was tested at 72
degrees), the sink would not drain the water timely, and the toilet was not flushing properly (urine remained
in the toilet after flushed). Resident #34 said the toilet had not flushed and the sink had not drained for
several months. Resident #34 said he told the Administrator a month or so ago about the clogged sink, not
having hot water, and the bed linens not being changed. Resident #34 said the maintenance man had
come in a few times and worked on the sink, but the water never got hot, the sink never drained right, and
the toilet never flushed all the way. Resident #34 said the facility was his home, but it did not feel like a
home when they did not have clean beds or a working bathroom.
During an observation and interview on 07/08/2024 at 11:26 AM, Resident #34 said the bed linens did not
get changed last night after he got a shower. Resident #34's sheets had dirty brownish stains on the top
portion, and the pillowcase had a light browning tinge to it. Resident #34's toilet had light yellow water in the
toilet bowl with a urine smell. There was no hot water in Resident # 34's bathroom sink. There was 1-2

top portion, and the pillowcase had a light browning tinge to it. There was no hot water in Resident # 34's
bathroom sink. The sink would not drain the water timely and water was staying in the sink about 2 inches
up.
During an observation and interview on 07/09/2024 at 02:08 PM, the Maintenance Supervisor said he had
not noticed the peeling and chipped paint on the toilet seat because the toilet lid was always closed when
he was in Resident #34's bathroom. The Maintenance Supervisor stated he had unclogged Resident #34's
sink before, but he was not aware of Resident #34 not having hot water. The Maintenance Supervisor took
the temperature of Resident #34's bathroom sink water and it was 72 degrees Fahrenheit. The
Maintenance Supervisor said the water temperature should be between 98-110 degrees Fahrenheit within
3 seconds. The Maintenance Supervisor said Resident #17 and Resident #34 should have a sink with hot
water, a toilet that flushed, and a sink that would drain timely. The Maintenance Supervisor said it was
important for the residents to have hot water for proper handwashing and to decrease the chances of
spreading contaminants. The Maintenance Supervisor said the residents should have a working bathroom
so that it feels like their own home.

shift. The DON said the CNAs performed showers and linen changes on the residents, but any of the
nursing staff could and should perform showers and linen changes when needed. The DON said she
expected the CNAs to communicate with the charge nurses daily to ensure the residents' needs were met.
The DON expected the shower sheets to be completed by the CNAs daily, and for them to turn the shower
sheets into the shower logbook daily. The DON said she expected the charge nurses to verify the
showers/linen changes were completed by the CNAs daily by checking the shower logbook. The DON said
if a resident refused, she expected staff to try again a couple times or send a different staff member to ask
the resident. The DON said if a resident continued to refuse, she expected staff to report the refusal to the
family and document the refusal. The DON said she was responsible for monitoring that the residents were
bathed/showered, and that linens were changed appropriately according to the resident's plan of care. The
DON said she expected the Maintenance Supervisor to inspect and fix the resident's rooms to promote a
homelike environment. The DON said the importance of the residents receiving their scheduled showers
and linen changes was to maintain dignity, hygiene, skin integrity, skin inspections and prevent skin
infections.

refusal to the family and document the refusal. The Administrator said it was important for the residents to
receive baths/showers/linen changes for hygiene purposes, to make the residents feel good, for infection
control, and for their dignity. The Administrator said she expected the Maintenance Supervisor to maintain
the building with working faucets and toilets and have access to hot and cold water at all times. The
Administrator said it was the responsibility of all staff to take notice and report when there was a resident's
room that required attention, so the resident had a homelike environment that promoted dignity and a
healthy wellbeing.
