**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and records review, the facility failed to ensure the assessment accurately
reflected the resident's status for 1 of 9 residents (Resident #22) reviewed for MDS accuracy.
Residents Affected - Few
The annual MDS for Resident #22 failed to accurately document the continuous compression dressings
worn by the resident.
This failure could lead to residents not receiving the required care and decreased quality of life.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #22's face sheet, dated 6/25/2025, reflected a [AGE] year-old male admitted to
the facility on [DATE]. Relevant diagnoses included venous insufficiency (lack of circulation due to impaired
veins) and peripheral vascular disease (impaired veins in the arms and/or legs).
Review of annual MDS submitted on 5/26/2025 revealed a BIMS score of 13, indicating moderately
impaired cognition. Question M1200 of the MDS (application of non-surgical dressings other than to feet)
indicated no.
Record review of the skin assessment dated [DATE] revealed a check mark in the box no alterations in the
skin integrity noted. No documentation as present regarding the dressings.
Resident #22 was observed on 6/24/2025 at 11:02 AM to have dressings on both legs, extending from
mid-foot to the knee. The dressings were not dated and were observed to be discolored and dirty, with
increased discoloration to the area on the bottom of the foot. The resident was not wearing socks and the
dressings were in direct contact with the floor.
An additional observation of the resident on 6/25/2025 at 8:54 AM revealed the dressings were in the same
condition and appeared to be the same dressings as the observation made on the previous day.
In an interview with MDS on 6/26/2025, she confirmed the unna boot compression dressings should have
been documented in the MDS. She reported potential harm to residents was that they would not receive
necessary care.
In an interview with the DON on 6/26/2025 at 10:01 AM, she stated her expectation was for nursing
assessments to accurately reflect the status of the resident.
Review of the facility policy titled Comprehensive Assessments (dated March 2022, updated February
2025) revealed comprehensive assessments are conducted and coordinated by a registered nurse with
appropriate participation of other health professionals on the interdisciplinary team.

Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being
admitted
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to develop and implement a baseline care plan
for each resident that includes the instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care of the
resident that meet professional standards of quality of care for 1 of 2 residents (Resident #61) reviewed for
new admissions.
The facility failed to develop a baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission for Resident #61.
This failure could lead to residents not receiving necessary care and decreased quality of life.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #61's face sheet, dated 6/26/2025, revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to
the facility on [DATE] and discharged to an acute care hospital on 4/14/2025 (10 days total). Relevant
diagnoses included traumatic subdural hemorrhage without loss of consciousness (internal head injury with
bleeding of the brain) and cognitive communication deficit.
Record review of Resident #61's basline care plan report, printed 6/26/2025, revealed a singular focus area
indicating full code status. No other areas of care were addressed in the baseline care plan.
In an interview with MDS on 6/26/2025 at 10:29 AM, she stated a baseline care plan should include
anything a resident needs to receive proper care, including allergies, fall risks, skin conditions, code status,
hospice (if applicable), bowel and bladder needs, pain, and nutrition. She also stated Resident #61's
baseline care plan had been initiated prior to her employment at the facility, and she felt it was not sufficient
to provide care.
In an interview with the DON on 6/26/2025 at 10:11 AM, after reviewing Resident #61's baseline care plan
together, she stated the document should have contained medications, transfer status, therapy needs, etc.
She stated she was aware of the previous MDS nurse's performance issues and had addressed the
deficiencies in a performance improvement plan and subsequent termination. She reported the potential
harm to residents of having an insufficient care plan was that they may not receive proper care.
Upon request of a policy related to care planning, the facility provided a document titled Care Plans,
Comprehensive Person-Centered (revised March 2022). This policy did not address baseline care planning
for residents.

and care in accordance with professional standards of practice and the comprehensive care plan for the 1
resident (Resident #22) reviewed for skin conditions. The facility failed to ensure Resident #22 received
wound care treatment for over 30 days for his chronic skin impairment as ordered by the physician. This
failure could lead to exacerbation of a resident's chronic condition, skin breakdown and injury, or infection.
Findings included: Record review of Resident #22's face sheet, dated 6/25/2025, reflected a [AGE] year-old
male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Relevant diagnoses included venous insufficiency (lack of

the same condition and appeared to be the same dressings as the observation made on the previous day.
In an interview with RN A on 6/25/2025 at 1:09 PM, she explained Resident #22 refuses to wear the TED
hose, so he has the unna boot compression dressings on his legs instead. She stated the dressings are
managed by the WCN and changed weekly. RN A was unable to locate Resident #22's TED hose for
observation, and she stated she thought maybe they were being ordered. She reported she had not ever
seen TED hose present in Resident #22's room for application. In an interview with the WCN on 6/25/2025
at 1:15 PM, she stated Resident #22 no longer wears the unna boot compression dressings and had orders
for TED hose instead. She confirmed the change was effective 5/30/2025, and she was unaware the
resident had compression dressings on his legs currently. She stated she had informed Resident #22's
primary nurse of the order change on 5/30/2025, but they did not discuss who would remove the dressings.
In an interview with Resident #22 6/25/2025 at 1:19 PM, he stated the dressings had been on his feet for
about 3 weeks. He denied pain. He also denied psychosocial harm related to the state of the dressings. In a
subsequent interview on 6/25/2025 at 3:43 PM, the resident denied a history of refusing to wear TED hose.
He also denied the staff ever offering him the TED hose to wear. The WCN confirmed in an observation on
6/25/2025 at 1:19 PM that the dressings were unna boots compression dressings and had been applied by
her on 5/23/2025. She then removed the dressings, and the resident's skin was observed to be absent of
open wounds or breakdown. The resident's right foot had increased swelling. An interview was conducted
with NP D on 6/25/2025 at 4:14 PM. She confirmed the unna boots compression dressing has been
discontinued previously and the resident was supposed to be wearing TED hose during the day. She was

within parameters, with a start date of 05/17/2025.Record review of Resident #10's Medication
Administration Records for May and June 2025, dated 06/27/2025, reflected that Resident #10 was
provided Amlodipine Besylate 42 times from 05/17/2025 through 06/27/2025, which was once daily since
the order began. Resident #10's May and June Medication Administration Records did not reflect Resident
#10's blood pressure at the time of medication administration.Record review of Resident #10's Blood
Pressure Vitals Record reflected that between 05/17/2025 and 06/27/2025 his blood pressure was taken 5
times. The blood pressure vitals were as follows:1. 05/17/2025 at 9:18 AM, with a blood pressure of 111/62
mmHg taken by MA N.2. 05/18/2025 at 9:16 AM, with a blood pressure of 125/83 mmHg taken by MA N.3.

120/75 mmHg taken by LVN O.Interview on 06/27/2025 at 9:42 AM, the DON stated that the order was
likely not populated in the electronic health record in a way to prompt whoever was giving the medication to
input the blood pressure. The DON did not state the risk to residents for blood pressure medications such
as amlodipine being given without checking parameters prior, but did state she was certain her staff
checked the residents blood pressure.Interview on 06/27/2025 at 2:12 PM, LVN O stated that she checked
Resident #10's blood pressure before providing their amlodipine to them. LVN O stated she was unsure
why it was not showing that she had input the blood pressure previously into the resident's electronic health
record, but stated she was sure she had checked it before providing it to the resident. LVN O was unable to
provide evidence that Resident #10's blood pressure was taken prior to administration. Record review of
facility policy titled, Administering Medications, dated Revised April 2019 reflected, The following
information is checked/verified for each resident prior to administering medications: a. Allergies to

Medication Administration Errors revealed, . medication administration is part of a complex medication use
process, in which a multidisciplinary care team works together to ensure patient-centered care delivery. As
such, it has been emphasized that the five rights do not ensure administration safety as a standalone
process. Therefore, four additional rights were proposed to include right documentation, action/reason,
form, and response. As modern healthcare delivery systems continue to evolve, emphasis on system
design (i.e. technology & clinical workflows) has become a priority to complement the medication
administration process. System-related causes of medication administration errors may include inadequate
training, distractors, convoluted processes, and system misconfiguration B) Record review of Resident
#42's face sheet, dated 6/25/2025, revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE].

Interview and observation on 06/25/2025 at 2:08 PM, CNA P stated that she believed the bed had been
without a mattress since the previous hospice resident who lived in that room had passed away. CNA P
stated it had been approximately a month, as the resident had passed away on 06/25/2025, and the bed
did not have a mattress because usually hospice will bring air mattresses for people they care for. CNA P
stated she was uncertain why a new mattress had not been put on the bed.

Make sure that a working call system is available in each resident's bathroom and bathing area.
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 be adequately equipped to allow residents to
call for staff through a communication system which relays the call directly to a staff member or a
centralized staff work area from toilet and bathing facilities for 11 of 15 resident rooms (rooms #101, #103,
#105, #107, #111, #117, #202, #210, #308, #315, and #405) reviewed for call lights. The facility failed to
ensure emergency call lights in resident room bathrooms were able to be accessed and used from the floor
on 06/24/2025. This failure could place residents at risk of injury, pain, hospitalization, and a diminished
quality of life.Findings included:Observation on 06/24/2025 at 10:27 AM, room [ROOM NUMBER] was
observed to have the call light wrapped around the metal assistance bar next to the toilet. The call light
cable was not reachable from the floor and was approximately 2 feet above the floor. If pulled, the call light
did not activate, and only put tension from the call light cable onto the metal assistance bar next to the
toilet. Observation on 06/24/2025 at 10:52 AM, room [ROOM NUMBER] was observed to have the call light
wrapped around the metal assistance bar next to the toilet. The call light cable was not reachable from the
floor and was approximately 2 feet above the floor. If pulled, the call light did not activate, and only put
tension from the call light cable onto the metal assistance bar next to the toilet. On 06/25/2025 between
4:30 PM and 4:50 PM, many observations of resident rooms occurred to assess for call light accessibility in
resident restrooms. The following resident rooms were observed to have the call lights wrapped around the
metal assistance bar next to the toilet. When attempts to pull on the part of the call light cable closest to the
ground, tension was placed on the metal assistance bar and the call light system did not register the call
light being pulled due to the cord being wrapped around the bar . The resident rooms are as follows: room
[ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room
[ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room [ROOM NUMBER], room
[ROOM NUMBER], and room [ROOM NUMBER]. Further observation revealed that so long as the call light
cables were pulled appropriately, and not impeded by bars, to activate the call system, the call system was
in functioning condition. During an interview on 06/26/2025 at 2:35 PM, the DON stated that the call light
cables are very long, and they do not want residents to slip on them, so they wrap them around the metal
bar. The DON stated that it was possible to shorten the length of the call light cables so they were able to
be used as intended. The DON stated that no one had fallen and was not able to use the cable. The DON
stated there could be a safety risk to residents for not being able to pull the call light in the restroom.
Record review of facility policy titled, Call System, Residents dated updated January 2025, reflected, Each
resident is provided with a means to call staff directly for assistance from his/her bed, from toileting/bathing
facilities and from the floor.
