This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to maintain an air
temperature range of 71 to 81-degree
Fahrenheit ([°F] a unit of measure) for 11 of the
88 resident rooms and ensure the heater,
which provided warmth to 28 of 28 residents
who occupied these 11 rooms, was functioning.
Four of the 28 residents complained their
rooms were cold and required extra blankets
at night (Residents 1, 2, 3, and 4).
This deficient practice resulted in Residents 1,
2, 3, and 4 complaining of being cold and this
had the potential for all the residents in the
facility to have adverse consequences due to

the environment being too cold.
Findings:
A review of the air temperatures from a
weather website (weather.com) for the city in
which the facility was located indicated from
12/13/19 through 12/19/19, the air temperature
ranged from 64 °F to 70 °F during the day and
44 °F to 55 °F during the night. The highest air
temperature during the day on 12/19/19 for the
city in which the facility was located was 66 °F.
According to an online article by the Mayo
Clinic titled, "Asthma-Diagnosis and
Treatment," an asthma attack is defined as the
airways become swollen and inflamed, which
results in extra mucus production causing the
breathing tubes to narrow. The article indicated
wintertime was an especially hard with people
with asthma, as studies have indicated asthma
hospital admission increases during the winter
months. The article indicated cold air increases
mucus production, which triggers asthma
attacks and allergy attack. Cold dry air was
listed as an asthma trigger.
On 12/19/19 at 7:56 a.m., during an interview
with Resident 1's family member (FM 1), FM 1
stated that the facility was always cold every
time she visited the resident (no date
specified). FM 1 stated she complained to the
management (no name or title specified) about
the resident's room being cold but nothing was
done about it. FM 1 stated that on one of her
visits (on 12/16/19), she noticed that Resident
1 was shaking (in the resident's room), the staff
could not get the resident's vital signs (clinical
measurements, specifically pulse rate,
temperature, respiration rate, and blood
pressure, that indicate the state of a patient's
essential body function), and the resident had

On 12/19/19 at 9 a.m., during an observation
while conducting a tour of the facility and a
concurrent interview with the Maintenance
Supervisor (MS), the MS measured the air
temperatures of the resident rooms, Rooms 2
to 11, and stated the room temperatures were
as follows:
Rooms 3 and 4 were 67°F
Rooms 2, 5, 7, 8, and 10 were 68°F
Rooms 6, 9 and 11 were 69°F
The MS adjusted the thermostats (a device that
automatically regulates temperature, or that
activates a device when the temperature
reaches a certain point) in the residents' rooms
but the air temperatures did not change. The
MS stated he needed to go to the roof to check
the heater.
On 12/19/19 at 10:55 a.m., during an interview,
the MS stated he checked the residents' room
air temperatures daily and he maintained a
temperature log. The MS stated his routine
inspection entailed checking the air
temperatures in the hallways and one or two
resident rooms. The surveyor asked the MS to
review with him the temperature log for the
facility's hallway and resident rooms. The MS
provided air temperature logs with readings for
March, April, July, August, September, and
October but without a year indicated. The MS
stated he had not checked the temperatures in
the resident rooms recently (time period not
specified) so he could not tell how long the air
temperatures in the resident rooms had been
low (cold).
On 12/19/19 at 12:15 p.m., during the
interview, the Administrator stated she had not
received any complaints from any residents or

A review of GACH's ED note, dated 12/16/19

A review of Resident 1's Medication
Administration Record (MAR) in the GACH's
