What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 5 deficiencies, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0552 Ensure that residents are fully informed and understand their health status, care and treatments. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to inform residents in advance about any care and treatment for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #3) reviewed for resident rights, in that: The facility failed to ensure consent forms were properly completed or signed by a responsible party prior to administration of a psychotropic medication (Remeron) for Resident #3. This failure could place residents at risk of not being aware of changes related to their care/treatment. Findings include: Record review of Resident #3's admission Record dated 10/21/2025, revealed an [AGE] year-old male, admitted to facility on 06/06/2025. His diagnoses included: Wedge compression fracture of first lumbar vertebra (a type of spinal fracture where the front part of the vertebra collapses, creating a wedge-shaped deformity), dementia (a general term for a group of diseases that cause a loss of cognitive functioning, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning, to the point that it interferes with daily life), heart disease, and hypertension (high blood pressure). Resident #3 was discharged from the facility to the hospital on [DATE] and did not return to the facility. Record review of Resident #3's Medicare 5-Day MDS dated [DATE] revealed Resident #3 had a BIMS score of 15, indicated cognitive function was intact. Resident #3 had clear speech, understood others and was able to be understood by others. Resident #3 required supervision or touching assistance with eating. Resident #3 was dependent on toileting hygiene and showers/baths requiring the assistance of two or more helpers. Record review of Resident #3's Order Summary dated 06/01/2025 to 07/01/2025 revealed, Resident #3 had the following order written by PA HH:Start Date: 06/18/2025 Remeron Oral Tablet 30 MG (Mirtazapine)Give 1 tablet by mouth one time at bedtime for appetite stimulant.Medication Class: Tetracyclic antidepressants. Record review of Resident #3's consent form for Remeron (Mirtazapine) dated 06/18/2025 revealed no resident/responsible party signature or verbal consent was obtained to give Remeron. Record review of Resident #3's June 2025 MAR revealed Resident #3 had received Remeron Oral Tablet 30mg at bedtime for appetite stimulant from 06/18/2025 through 06/26/2025. Record review of Progress Notes dated 06/18/2025 at 12:09 pm written by PA HH revealed PA HH ordered Remeron Oral Table 30mg at bedtime for appetite stimulant. In an interview on 10/28/2025 at 03:16 pm LVN GG stated the nurse who received the psychotropic order from the physician would be responsible for getting signatures or verbal consent for the consent form. The nurse would explain to the family the medication and side effects and the family would decide if they wanted the resident to have it or not. She said if the family wanted the resident to take the medication, the nurse would either get verbal consent documented on the consent form or the Responsible Party would sign the consent form for the psychotropic. LVN GG stated the medication was not given to the resident until the consent for the psychotropic was signed or verbal consent was documented on the consent form. LVN GG stated the resident had the right to take the medication or refuse it. She said it was a patient's right. In an interview on 10/28/2025 at 05:15 pm The DON stated the nurse who took the order for a psychotropic or antipsychotic was the one responsible for getting Residents Affected - Few (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.

F 0552 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete signatures of the doctor and RP. The DON stated the nurse was not to give the medication until signatures were on the consent form. She said the negative effect of not getting signatures on the consent form would be that it would not show the RP or resident was informed of the side effects of the medication and the consent to give the medication. She said it was a resident's right to accept the medication or refuse it. Review of facility's policy Use of Psychotropic Medication(s) dated 03/05/2025 revealed:Policy Explanation and Compliance Guidelines: 9.

The facility failed to review and revise Resident #3's comprehensive person-centered care plan from Full Code Status to DNR Status in a timely manner reflecting both Full Code and DNR status on the care plan. This failure could affect residents and place them at risk of not receiving appropriate interventions to meet their current needs. Findings include: Record review of Resident #3's admission Record dated [DATE], revealed an [AGE] year-old male, admitted to facility on [DATE]. His diagnoses included: Wedge compression fracture of first lumbar vertebra (a type of spinal fracture where the front part of the vertebra collapses, creating a wedge-shaped deformity), dementia (a general term for a group of diseases that cause a loss of cognitive functioning, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning, to the point that it interferes with daily life), heart disease, and hypertension (high blood pressure).

She said if the resident code status changed to DNR after the admitting care plan, the nurse who was notified of the change of code status would put it in the Care Plan and remove the Full Code status. RN M stated she would want to see the signed DNR with signatures before she changed the code status on the Care Plan. RN M stated that usually the nurse who took the psychotropic order was the one who put the psychotropic or antipsychotic in the care plan. RN M stated for psychotropic medication orders, she would let the Care Team know, and they would put it in the care plan. In an interview on [DATE] at 01:40 pm, RN X stated that the admitting nurse was the one who completed the care plan on admission.

RN X stated that the nurse who received the order for a psychotropic was responsible for getting the signed consent for psychotropics. She said the medication was not to be put in the computer until the family had signed consent for the psychotropic. She said that way, the order would not show up on the MAR and the medication would not be given until the consent was signed. In an interview on [DATE] at 03:16 pm, LVN GG stated that the admitting nurse completed the initial care plan and the RN reviewed the care plan then signed off on them. She said the admitting nurse was responsible for entering the code status on admission. LVN GG stated if the resident's code status changed, the Social Worker would let the nurse know of the change in code status and the nurse changed the status, discontinued the original code status, and in the comments, the nurse would document the resident's code status had been changed to DNR. LVN GG stated that the nurse who received the order for a psychotropic or antipsychotic was responsible for updating the care plan with goal and interventions. In an interview on [DATE] at 05:15 pm, the DON stated the Care Plan for Resident #3 showed his status code as Full Code on [DATE] which was the date his DNR was signed. She said the Care Plan was not updated with the DNR until [DATE]. She said it should have been updated sooner. The DON stated it would not have been clear if the resident was DNR if anything had happened to the resident between [DATE] and [DATE]. Resident #3 had an unwitnessed fall on [DATE] with no obvious injury. Record review of facility's policy Care Plan Revisions Upon Status Change dated [DATE] revealed: Policy: The purpose of this procedure is to provide a consistent process for reviewing and revising the care plan for those residents experiencing a status change. Policy Explanation and Compliance Guidelines: d. The care plan will be updated with the new or modified interventions. h. The Unit Manager or other designated staff member will conduct and audit on all residents experiencing a change in status, at the time the change in status is identified, to ensure care plans have been updated to reflect current resident needs.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure that each resident received adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for accidents hazards and supervision:1.The facility failed to ensure Resident # 1 was not left unattended in his wheelchair in his room by CNA A, which resulted in an unwitnessed fall. Resident #1 sustained a hip fracture from the fall. 2.The facility failed to ensure CNA A and Med-Aide B notified a nurse of Resident #1's fall and transferred Resident #1 to bed without being assessed. The non-compliance for Resident #1 was identified as Past Non-Compliance. The Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) began on 04/21/2025 and ended on 04/23/2025. The facility corrected the non-compliance before the investigation began. This failure could place the residents at risk for injury or death. Findings included:Record review of Resident #1's admission sheet dated 10/21/25, reflected an [AGE] year-old male with an admission date of 05/03/25 and an initial admission date of 07/30/23. His relevant diagnoses included hemiplegia (a condition that causes paralysis or weakness on one side of the body), hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body that can affect the arm, leg, and sometimes the face), displaced intertrochanteric fracture of right femur ( a break in the femur (thigh bone) just below the femoral head and above the lesser trochanter), pain to right hip, Alzheimer's disease (a progressive brain disorder that causes memory loss, confusion, and other cognitive decline), lack of coordination, muscle weakness, and need for assistance with personal care. Record review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], reflected a BIMS score of 04, which indicated his cognition was severely impaired. Further review reflected Resident #1 was dependent ( helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. OR the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) for transfers and used a wheelchair as a mobility device.Record review of Resident #1's quarterly care plan dated 09/23/25, reflected a:Problem: [Resident #1] is high risk for falls r/t unsteadiness on feet, other lack of coordination, other abnormalities of gait/mobility (dated initiated 07/30/23 and revised on 04/23/25)Interventions: in part included to anticipate and meet needs (date initiated 07/30/23 ad revised on 09/23/25), be sure the resident's call light is within reach and encourage/remind the resident to use call light for all assistance (dated initiated 07/30/23 and revised on 09/23/25), Ensure floor mats in place (dated initiated 08/25/25), provide resident with mobility device: WC, walker, or cane (date initiated 04/23/25), Pt evaluate and treat as ordered or PRN (date initiated 11/12/24)Problem: [Resident #1] has had an actual unwitnessed fall on: 03/26/25, 04/06/25, 04/09/25, 04/21/25 (date initiated 04/06/25 and revised on 04/23/25)Interventions: in part included, resident reminded to use call light for assistance when needed to avoid falls/injuries (date initiated 03/27/25), visual checks Q2 (date initiated 04/14/25), bed to lowest position w/safety pad on the floor (date initiated 04/22/25), and notify MD/RP of incident (date initiated 04/06/25)Record review of Resident #1's incident report dated 04/21/25 at 8:15 pm, reflected:Incident description: Around 8:00, CNA reported that upon entering the room, resident noted lying on the floor, left side of his bed, on his right-side position.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few to right hip/waist area which started on 04/21/2025 Record review of Resident #1's x-ray results taken on 04/22/25 reflected a mildly displaced right hip fracture. This appears to be a inter trochanteric fracture.During a telephone interview on 10/21/25 at 1:04 pm, CNA A described Resident #1 as being a very anxious resident who frequently attempted to get up from his wheelchair and required constant supervision. She said when Resident #1 would be in his wheelchair, and he would be placed by the nurse's station so they could keep an eye on him. She said on 04/21/25 between 6:00 and 7:00 pm, she wheeled Resident #1 from the nurse's station back to his room. CNA A said she left him sitting in his wheelchair (wheels locked) while she went out to the hall to look for someone to help her transfer Resident #1 back to bed. She said while she was in the hall trying to motion for assistance from another CNA, the resident from across Resident #1's room asked her to take him to the restroom, and she did. CNA A said when she returned to Resident #1's room, she found him on the floor, lying on his right side between his bed and his wheelchair. She said she panicked and at that same moment, Med-Aide B walked into Resident #1's room. She said she asked Med-Aide B to help her transfer Resident #1 back to his bed. CNA A said Resident #1 did not complain of pain or had any facial grimacing during the transfer. CNA A said once Resident #1 was transferred back to bed, both she and Med-Aide B left his room. CNA A said Resident #1 looked ok. CNA A said she failed to notify Resident #1's charge nurse of the fall and Resident #1 was transferred back to bed without being assessed by a nurse. CNA A said she also forgot to notify anybody that Resident #1 had sustained an unwitnessed fall after she left his room. CNA A said that day, she had requested to leave early (8:00 pm) and CNA C had agreed to cover for her from 8:00 pm to 10 pm. CNA A said on her way home (not sure of the time) she received a telephone call from LVN D who told her Resident #1 was in pain and if she knew what had happened to him. CNA A said she told LVN D she did not know why Resident #1 was in pain and that nothing had happened to him during her shift. CNA A said around 9:30 pm, she called LVN D and told him Resident #1 had an unwitnessed fall in his room, was transferred back to bed by her and Med-Aide B, and that she had not reported it to anyone. CNA A said she had been regularly in-serviced on the topics of fall prevention which included notifying charge nurse of any falls and not moving a resident after they sustained a fall until they had been assessed by a nurse. She said a negative outcome of notifying a nurse that a resident had fallen and moving a resident before they were assessed could further injure a resident and cause more pain. CNA A said the next day, when she arrived at the facility to start her shift, she was called to the Administrator's office and was written up and suspended and days later was terminated. She said that it was the first time she had failed to report a fall.During a telephone interview on 10/21/25 at 3:31 pm, Med-Aide B said on 04/21/25 between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm, she had been motioned by CNA A to assist her in transferring Resident #1 back to bed and at that moment she was busy. She said by the time she went into Resident #1's room to assist CNA A, Resident #1 on the floor. She said CNA A asked her to help transfer Resident #1 back to bed. She said they used a bed sheet to transfer Resident #1 back to bed and during the transfer, Resident #1 was moaning. Med-Aide B said after he was transferred back to bed, Resident #1 continued moaning but she and CNA A left his room, and she continued with her med-aide duties. Med-Aide B said she assumed CNA A had already notified Resident #1's charge nurse of the fall, had already been assessed, and it was safe to move him. Med-Aide B said her mistake was to assume CNA A had already notified Resident #1's nurse and that he had already been assessed. Med-Aide B said a negative outcome for not having a nurse assess Resident #1 before being transferred could have caused a fracture and made the pain worse. Med-Aide B said she had been in-serviced on the topic of fall preventions which included notifying a resident's nurse of a fall and not moving a resident after a fall until they had been (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 676446 If continuation sheet Page 6 of 15 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 676446 B.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few assessed by a nurse. Med-Aide B said she received a write-up and was in-serviced on the topics of ANE and fall prevention.During a telephone interview on 10/22/25 at 3:45 pm, CNA C said that on 04/21/25, CNA A had asked her if she could cover the last two hours of her 2 pm to 10 pm shift. She said she agreed and punched in at around 8:00 pm. CNA C said the facility's protocol required the outgoing CNA to give report to the incoming CNA, but on that day, CNA A had not reported anything on Resident #1. CNA C said the only thing CNA A asked her to do was to help her make her end of shift round on Resident #1. CNA C said soon after she walked into his room, Resident #1, immediately told her his right leg was hurting. She said she noticed he had facial grimacing. She said Resident #1 told her he had a fall earlier in the day and his leg had been hurting since then. She said she immediately went to tell LVN D Resident #1 had pain in his right leg and asked him if it was true that he had fallen earlier in the day. She said LVN D told her that he had not been told Resident #1 had fallen earlier in the day. She said she and LVN D rushed back to Resident #1's room where LVN D assessed him.During a telephone interview on 10/22/25 at 4:00 pm, LVN D said on 04/21/25 between 8:00 and 8:20 pm, CNA C had reported to him that Resident #1 complained of pain in his right leg. He said he and CNA C rushed back to Resident #1's room and he noticed he had facial grimacing and voiced that his right leg was hurting. LVN D said he conducted a head-to-toe assessment, pain assessment (3/10) and notified Resident #1's NP/RP. LVN D said Resident #1's NP ordered pain medication and an x-ray of his right leg, stat. LVN D said after he had administered pain medication, called for an x-ray, and he called CNA A to ask her what happened to Resident #1. He said at first CNA A told him she did not know why Resident #1 was in pain and that nothing had happened to him during her shift. LVN D said CNA A called him 2 hours later and reported that Resident 1 had an unwitnessed fall and that she had failed to report it to anybody. LVN D said by the time CNA A called him back, he had already assessed Resident #1, called his NP, administered pain medication, and ordered x-rays to his right hip. LVN D said Resident #1's x-ray results showed he had sustained a right hip fracture as a result of the unwitnessed fall he had earlier that day. LVN D said a negative outcome for Resident #1 not having his unwitnessed fall reported and assessed before being moved could have worsened his fracture.During an interview on 10/22/25 at 4:20 pm, the DON said on 04/21/25, she had been informed by LVN D that Resident #1 had an unwitnessed fall sometime between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm and was complaining of right hip pain. She said from what was reported to her, CNA A had wheeled Resident #1from the nurse's station back to his room to transfer him back to bed. She said while CNA A stood by Resident #1's door trying to motion another staff member to assist her in transferring Resident #1 back to bed, the resident directly across Resident #1's room called her to take him to the restroom. The DON said by the time CNA A came back to Resident #1's room, Resident #1 sustained an unwitnessed fall. The DON said Resident #1 was found on the floor and that's when CNA A and Med-Aide B transferred him back to his bed without him being assessed by a nurse or notifying anyone of the fall. She said that on 04/21/25, she had been informed by LVN D that between 8:00 pm and 8:15 pm, CNA C reported to him that Resident #1 had complained of right hip pain. She said LVN D immediately assessed Resident #1 and had notified his NP by 8:20 pm. She said LVN D later discovered CNA A had discovered Resident #1 lying on the floor in his room between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm and that he had been transferred back to his bed by CNA A and Med-Aide B without being assessed by a nurse.
