The facility failed on 06/03/2025 when Resident #28's window (1 of 2) would not close all the way in his room remaining open approximately 1-inch, which could have resulted in damage to the interior windowsill according to the Maintenance Director. The facility failed on 06/03/2025 when Resident #28's room refrigerator had not been functioning for an unknown amount of time resulting in Resident #28's RP not being able to bring in outside food for Resident #28. This failure could place residents at risk of a diminished quality of life due to exposure to an environment that was unpleasant, unsanitary, and unsafe. The findings included: Record review of Resident #28's admission record, dated 06/03/25, reflected Resident #28 was an [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses to include repeated falls, weakness, and dementia (decline in cognitive functioning, including memory, thinking, and reasoning, to the extent that it interferes with daily life and activities). Record review of Resident #28's admission MDS assessment, dated 05/05/25, reflected Resident #28 had a BIMS score of 09 out of 15, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. It reflected no weight changes in the past 6 months. Observation and combined interview with Resident #28 and Resident #28's RP on 06/03/25 at 11:07 AM reflected, one of his windows (1 of 2) was slightly open. They stated they could not close it before today and demonstrated they could not close it by trying to close it again unsuccessfully. They stated they had put a towel to cover the crack so bugs and rain could not get in. They revealed this window had been cracked for at least last week. They stated when it rained last week water got in and this was when they told a staff member, who they were unable to identify. Observation of the interior windowsill revealed the top of the windowsill near the window was slightly warped. Observation and interview on 06/03/25 at 11:12 AM, reflected Resident #28's refrigerator was empty and was 58 degrees Fahrenheit. Resident #28's RP stated she had not used the refrigerator since (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.
