who needed more options. The SW stated, in her perspective, she felt as though the people in charge of
activities had gotten to the point where they were frustrated that every time they put something together, no
residents showed up. When asked for examples, the SW stated there were arts and crafts activities and
puzzles that no one attended. The SW stated as long as one resident showed up, that was all that mattered
to make the activity worth it. The SW stated the new ADM was putting more focus on activities, and he had
only been at the facility for two months.

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. The AD stated the main thing residents constantly told her was they wanted more
smoking breaks. The AD stated they had four smoke breaks, and that was as many as they could handle.
The AD stated she did in-room activities with the residents who never liked to come out of their rooms. The
AD stated she did in-room activities with Resident #15, #39, and #52. The AD stated she had written
documentation of her in-room visits.
Observation on 05/03/23 at 04:02 PM revealed the AD seated in the ADON's office writing a log of in-room
visits on a mostly blank piece of white printer paper. At 04:22 PM she provided a stack of in-room visit logs
on sheets of white printer paper.
Review of in-room visit logs provided by the AD reflected no in-room visits for Residents #15, #39, or #52 .

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
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. 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

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.

Post nurse staffing information every day.
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to post nurse staffing data on a daily basis at the
beginning of each shift in a clear and readable format and in a prominent place readily accessible to
residents and visitors for two of three days of the recertification survey.
Residents Affected - Many
The facility failed to post nurse staffing information on 05/02/23 and 05/01/23.
This failure placed residents and visitors at risk of being unaware of the facility daily staffing requirements.
Findings included:
Observation on 05/01/23 at 07:10 AM and 01:23 PM revealed no posted nurse staffing in any public, visible
place in the facility.
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. Procedure: daily, direct care staff posting must
be posted prior to the beginning of all shift. 1. Per federal regulations the posting of the daily direct care
stuff is required for all shift. 3. The posting will contain RN hours, LVN hours for all shift, number of

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to maintain an infection prevention and control
program designed to provide a safe, sanitary and comfortable environment and to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for one of one (Resident #17)
resident and 1 of 1 nurse (LVN A) observed for G-Tube medication administration.
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.

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

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.
