The facility failed to ensure on 04/17/25, during the overnight shift, that Resident #1's room was without soiled linen placed on the floor and a brown smeared substance was on the wall directly above the soiled linen. 2. The facility failed to ensure on 04/17/25, during the overnight shift, that Resident #1's floor next to his bed was without dried up brown substances and yellow liquid stains.
