Residents Affected - Some During an interview on 05/03/23 at 12:34 PM, the ADM stated there should have been individual activities offered for each resident, and it went back to the resident's right to make their own choices. The ADM stated staff knew what each resident wanted to do. The ADM stated the majority of the residents would say they wanted to do one thing and in the next three minutes would change it. The ADM stated the residents' likes and dislikes should have been in their clinical record at least as part of their social history. The ADM stated the majority of the residents had guardians so it was not very common they could pick up the phone and call family to find out what the residents enjoyed doing. The ADM stated he thought the MDS did have an activities assessment, and it was one of the tools used to pull from. The ADM stated he was not aware of any particular activities for Residents #6, #13, #15, #39, #44, or #52. The ADM stated he wanted to be able to recognize and honor their choices to participate or not but he also wanted the offerings to be tailored to their preferences. The ADM stated he had not received complaints about activities. The ADM stated the facility usually had music playing all the time, and for some reason there had not been any during the state survey. The ADM stated staff and residents were usually dancing and singing and having fun, but he had noticed how quiet it had been while HHSC staff had been in the building. During an interview on 05/03/23 at 03:46 PM, the AD stated she had worked there 27 years. The AD stated she came up with the activities on the calendar. The AD stated she came up with things that were not too hard to do. The AD stated some of the residents understood and some did not. Some of the activities she had may have been kind of childish, but the resident liked them. The AD stated the residents could ask for games any time they wanted, and she would put them on the table. The AD stated she had never consulted an outside source for what kinds of activities would be helpful or enjoyable to residents with psychiatric issues or cognitive decline. The AD stated someone had suggested she do that, and that many years ago, there was a corporate level woman who would take her to different kinds of workshops, but after COVID, everybody backed off of those kinds of opportunities. The AD stated Resident #13 liked to go outside but had never said she would like to have more exercise. The AD stated Resident #6 liked to crochet and do the crossword. The AD stated she made sure Resident #6 had the crossword puzzle books. The AD stated Resident #44 liked to walk around and sit outside and would sometimes play cards. The AD said she placed care plan meetings on the calendar. The AD stated when they had the care plan meetings, she was supposed to attend.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident environment remains as free of accident hazards as is possible for one of two wings (West) reviewed and three of five posted evacuation routes reviewed. 1. The facility failed to updated floor plans with evacuation route when they closed two of the facility's seven fire exits due to construction. 2. The facility failed to ensure that boards nailed over a non-functioning exit door were free of broken, splintered ends accessible to residents on the [NAME] wing. These failures placed residents at risk of injury. Findings included: 1. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:33 AM, revealed a set of double doors in the facility lobby blocked with an upright piano. The Exit sign over the doors was covered, and the area outside the doors was filled with construction materials. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:41 AM, revealed a door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32. Several wooden boards were nailed across the door making egress impossible. The Exit sign over the door was covered. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:42 AM, revealed the floor plan with evacuation route posted across from the lobby and outside the dining room listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the lobby or through a door on one end of the East wing. A second floor plan with evacuation route posted at the [NAME] wing nurse's station listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the lobby doors and the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32. The floor plan posted on the [NAME] wing hall listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32 and the door at the other end of the [NAME] wing. During interviews on 05/01/23 between 08:00 AM and 08:45 AM, LVN A, CNA B, NA C, and MA D each described knowledge of an evacuation plan that took into account the closed fire exits in the lobby and routed evacuating residents through the existing five fire exits. During an interview on 05/01/23 at 08:30 AM, the ADM stated a Life Safety Code surveyor had been to the building and determined the closed exits were compliant as long as the Exit signs were covered. The ADM stated the facility had a problem with the sewer system and contractors had to tunnel under the building in order to repair the problems. The ADM stated that there were deep trenches outside and construction equipment, and it would not have been safe for residents to go out of those doors. The ADM stated the evacuation plans should have been updated and posted to reflect the new evacuation pattern. The ADM stated posting the correct plans on the walls should have been the responsibility of the MAINT.

F 0689 evacuation. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During an interview on 05/03/23 at 12:18 PM, the MAINT stated the facility had to replace drains and sewer plumbing, and they had completed most of the work. The MAINT stated the exits in the lobby and at one end of the [NAME] wing had been blocked off for close to nine months. The MAINT stated she conducted an in-service with staff when she blocked off the exits in May 2022 and taught them about the new evacuation routes. The MAINT stated she showed them copies of the revised floor plan with evacuation routes. When asked whose responsibility it was to post the new floor plans, she stated she was not sure because the administrator who was there before the current ADM would reprimand the staff if they placed anything on the walls without her permission, and the previous administrator handled all the postings in the facility. The MAINT stated she had not noticed the ones on the walls in the building were not current. The MAINT stated it was not clear after the current ADM arrived who should have updated them. Residents Affected - Some Review of an in-service in the disaster preparedness binder dated 05/19/22 and titled May Fire Drill reflected the following: explained the staff on new evacuation plan for area that closed off for construction and included revised floor plans with alternate evacuation routes. 2. Observation on 05/01/23 at 12:57 PM revealed the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32 was blocked by three sets of wooden boards: a two by four nailed diagonally across the door, a fence picket nailed vertically across the door, and two fence pickets stacked together and nailed horizontally over the panic rim exit device (surface-mounted bar on the door, with the door latch projecting from the panic device rather than the door edge). These two boards were broken at the right end and projected a sharp, splintered surface accessible to anyone passing by. The broken edge of the board was sharp to the touch and deposited a splinter into the surveyor's finger. During an interview on 05/03/23 at 12:04 PM, the MAINT stated she had boarded up the door on the [NAME] wing herself. When asked if she knew how the boards became broken, she stated one of the residents had broken it while trying to go outside that door. She stated the resident was very strong, and the board was not very strong, and the facility staff had been right behind the resident, but the MAINT had not replaced the board. The MAINT stated this had happened a week prior. When asked why she had not replaced the board yet, the MAINT stated she had just gotten the two by four boards in that she needed to replace it. The MAINT stated residents and staff could be injured if they were to come into contact with the board. During an interview on 05/03/23 on 12:34 PM, the ADM stated he had not noticed the broken boards on the door by the [NAME] wing nurse's station and ensuring the safe condition of any construction areas accessible to the residents was the responsibility of the MAINT. The ADM stated a potential negative impact of the broken boards was that someone could grab it and splinter themselves. Review of undated facility policy titled Safety Policy reflected the following: Provide a safe environment for staff, residents, and visitors to work, live and visit. Procedure: 1. This facility provides a safe environment for all the staff to work, residents to live in and guests to visit. 2. Safety is the responsibility of everyone and any safety concern should be reported to management.

Observation on 05/02/23 at 09:02 AM and 02:40 PM revealed no posted nurse staffing in any public, visible place in the facility. During observation and an interview on 05/02/23 at 02:42 PM, the DON stated he did not know where the nurse staffing information was posted. He went to the nurse's station on the east wing and asked LVN A if she knew, and she went through some papers in a wire tiered filing [NAME] and pulled out a clip board with several blank nurse staffing information pages which included spaces for the date, census, and a grid of shifts with nursing positions. The DON stated he thought they filled out the information each day and left it in the filing [NAME] but did not know they needed to post it. The DON stated the charge nurse for the wing was responsible for filling out that information. He stated he had never been told what he should do with the nurse staffing information. The DON stated he could see how it would be important to residents and visitors to know how many staff to expect to be working. During an interview on 05/02/23 at 02:47 PM, LVN A stated she usually filled out the nurse staffing information and left it on the desk where anyone could see it if they walked by, but she did not know why she had not filled out the information or posted it that day. LVN A stated she did not get any particular training or direction from management about what to do with the nurse staffing information. Review of undated facility policy titled Policy and procedure on daily direct care staff posting reflected the following: Policy: it is the policy of the facility to maintain the daily direct care staff to provide the best quality of care for all resident with sufficient staffing ratio on all shift.

Residents Affected - Few LVN A failed to maintain the G-tube tubing tip and syringe plunger clean while administering G-Tube medication. This failure could place residents with G-tubes at risk of decline in health due to inappropriate G-tube care and infection. Findings include: Review of Resident #17's face sheet revealed a 75-years-old female DOB [DATE] with admission date of 07/06/2011 and readmission date of 07/28/2022. Diagnoses include Esophageal reflux, Dysphagia (Dysphagia is difficulty swallowing - taking more time and effort to move food or liquid from your mouth to your stomach) Review of Resident #17's MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 00, staff assessment was conducted indicating memory problems. Review of Resident #17's Care Plan dated 04/07/2022 revealed Resident #17 is being fed by alternative means, being fed by GTUBE (gastrostomy tube (also called a G-tube) is a tube inserted through the belly that brings nutrition directly to the stomach.) During an observation on 05/02/23 at 10:38 a.m., while LVN A was administering medication to Resident #17, LVN A was observed disconnecting the G-Tube tubing from Resident #17, covering the tip of the tubing with a cap which inner portion was on the G-Tube pole, making the inner of the cap contaminated. LVN A then used the contaminated cap to cover the tip of Resident #17's G-Tube. LVN A was also observed putting the inner portion of the plunger of the syringe used to administer medication to Resident #17 on the medication cart. The medication cart was not disinfected, thereby making the plunger contaminated. LVN A did not take a towel with her when administering medication to Resident #17, while administering water to Resident #17 via G-Tube, LVN A spilled water on Resident #17 abdomen and did not acknowledge it. During an interview on 05/02/23 at 10:46 a.m., LVN A stated the cap for the tip of the G-Tube was kept on the top of the G-Tube pole. LVN A also stated the cap is not clean because the inner portion is exposed to the pole which is not disinfected. LVN A stated the plunger for the syringe should have been put on something, not on the cart. LVN A stated, I should have taken a towel, pat dry Resident #17 and apologized. During an interview on 05/03/2023 at 2:11 p.m., the DON stated LVN A should have taken a towel with her as equipment. He also stated the plunger is considered contaminated because there was nothing on the cart to keep it clean. He stated LVN A told him about the cap for the tip of the G-Tube tubing, and it was not clean. The DON stated that was an infection control issue. The DON stated LVN A had completed competency check on G-tube medication administration.

F 0921 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and the public. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide a safe, functional, sanitary, and comfortable environment for residents, staff and the public for one of two wings (West) reviewed and three of five posted evacuation routes reviewed. 1. The facility failed to updated floor plans with evacuation route when they closed two of the facility's seven fire exits due to construction. 2. The facility failed to ensure that boards nailed over a non-functioning exit door were free of broken, splintered ends accessible to residents on the [NAME] wing. These failures placed residents at risk of injury. Findings included: 1. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:33 AM, revealed a set of double doors in the facility lobby blocked with an upright piano. The Exit sign over the doors was covered, and the area outside the doors was filled with construction materials. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:41 AM, revealed a door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32. Several wooden boards were nailed across the door making egress impossible. The Exit sign over the door was covered. Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:42 AM, revealed the floor plan with evacuation route posted across from the lobby and outside the dining room listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the lobby or through a door on one end of the East wing. A second floor plan with evacuation route posted at the [NAME] wing nurse's station listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the lobby doors and the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32. The floor plan posted on the [NAME] wing hall listed the evacuation routes from that location as through the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32 and the door at the other end of the [NAME] wing. During interviews on 05/01/23 between 08:00 AM and 08:45 AM, LVN A, CNA B, NA C, and MA D each described knowledge of an evacuation plan that took into account the closed fire exits in the lobby and routed evacuating residents through the existing five fire exits. During an interview on 05/01/23 at 08:30 AM, the ADM stated a Life Safety Code surveyor had been to the building and determined the closed exits were compliant as long as the Exit signs were covered. The ADM stated the facility had a problem with the sewer system and contractors had to tunnel under the building in order to repair the problems. The ADM stated that there were deep trenches outside and construction equipment, and it would not have been safe for residents to go out of those doors. The ADM stated the evacuation plans should have been updated and posted to reflect the new evacuation pattern. The ADM stated posting the correct plans on the walls should have been the responsibility of the MAINT. When asked what a potential negative impact to the residents could have been, the Adm stated there was no potential negative impact, because the staff knew what to do in the event of an (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 676291 If continuation sheet Page 21 of 22 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 676291 B.

F 0921 evacuation. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During an interview on 05/03/23 at 12:18 PM, the MAINT stated the facility had to replace drains and sewer plumbing, and they had completed most of the work. The MAINT stated the exits in the lobby and at one end of the [NAME] wing had been blocked off for close to nine months. The MAINT stated she conducted an in-service with staff when she blocked off the exits in May 2022 and taught them about the new evacuation routes. The MAINT stated she showed them copies of the revised floor plan with evacuation routes. When asked whose responsibility it was to post the new floor plans, she stated she was not sure because the administrator who was there before the current ADM would reprimand the staff if they placed anything on the walls without her permission, and the previous administrator handled all the postings in the facility. The MAINT stated she had not noticed the ones on the walls in the building were not current. The MAINT stated it was not clear after the current ADM arrived who should have updated them. Residents Affected - Some Review of an in-service in the disaster preparedness binder dated 05/19/22 and titled May Fire Drill reflected the following: explained the staff on new evacuation plan for area that closed off for construction and included revised floor plans with alternate evacuation routes. 2. Observation on 05/01/23 at 12:57 PM revealed the door at one end of the [NAME] wing of the facility near rooms 29-32 was blocked by three sets of wooden boards: a two by four nailed diagonally across the door, a fence picket nailed vertically across the door, and two fence pickets stacked together and nailed horizontally over the panic rim exit device (surface-mounted bar on the door, with the door latch projecting from the panic device rather than the door edge). These two boards were broken at the right end and projected a sharp, splintered surface accessible to anyone passing by. The broken edge of the board was sharp to the touch and deposited a splinter into the surveyor's finger. During an interview on 05/03/23 at 12:04 PM, the MAINT stated she had boarded up the door on the [NAME] wing herself. When asked if she knew how the boards became broken, she stated one of the residents had broken it while trying to go outside that door. She stated the resident was very strong, and the board was not very strong, and the facility staff had been right behind the resident, but the MAINT had not replaced the board. The MAINT stated this had happened a week prior. When asked why she had not replaced the board yet, the MAINT stated she had just gotten the two by four boards in that she needed to replace it. The MAINT stated residents and staff could be injured if they were to come into contact with the board. During an interview on 05/03/23 on 12:34 PM, the ADM stated he had not noticed the broken boards on the door by the [NAME] wing nurse's station and ensuring the safe condition of any construction areas accessible to the residents was the responsibility of the MAINT. The ADM stated a potential negative impact of the broken boards was that someone could grab it and splinter themselves. Review of undated facility policy titled Safety Policy reflected the following: Provide a safe environment for staff, residents, and visitors to work, live and visit. Procedure: 1. This facility provides a safe environment for all the staff to work, residents to live in and guests to visit. 2. Safety is the responsibility of everyone and any safety concern should be reported to management.
