Facilities initially certified after October 1, 1990 must maintain a temperature range of 71 to 81°F; and §483.10(i)(7) For the maintenance of comfortable sound levels. 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 FORM CMS-2567(02-99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: QFCV11 Facility ID: CA910000047 If continuation sheet 2 of 7 PRINTED: 05/14/2026 FORM APPROVED DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION OMB NO. 0938-0391 (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X1) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION A.

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.

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 FORM CMS-2567(02-99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: QFCV11 Facility ID: CA910000047 If continuation sheet 3 of 7 PRINTED: 05/14/2026 FORM APPROVED DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION OMB NO. 0938-0391 (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X1) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION A.

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).
