Fair View Nursing: Care Plan Failure for Sexual Behavior - WI
That gap is what a federal inspector found when she visited the facility on September 24, 2025.
The resident, identified in inspection records only as R2, was admitted to Fair View on September 12, 2024, with a diagnosis of dementia, a history of stroke, osteoarthritis, and diabetes. According to the facility's own assessment records, R2 has severe cognitive impairment and usually understands and is usually understood — a profile that makes structured, documented care responses more important, not less.
The care conference happened on September 11, 2025. Notes from that meeting record that a family member apologized for the patient's occasional sexual inappropriateness. The interdisciplinary team was present. RN G, a registered nurse, attended the meeting. Under the facility's own policy, the comprehensive care plan is maintained in an electronic medical record and updated to reflect the resident's current status and needs.
RN G was responsible for updating care plans after care conferences. She knew it.
When the surveyor interviewed her on September 24 at 2:10 in the afternoon, RN G confirmed she had attended the September 11 conference. The surveyor asked whether she had updated R2's care plan to include concerns about sexual inappropriateness. RN G and the surveyor pulled up the care plan together and looked at it. There was nothing there, no documentation of the behavior, no interventions, no guidance for staff on what to do when R2 acted out sexually.
"No," RN G said. She had not updated it.
She said she should have. She said she would do it right away.
The inspection cited the facility for failing to develop and implement a comprehensive, resident-centered care plan, a deficiency affecting a small number of residents and rated at the level of minimal harm or potential for actual harm.
The rating is the lowest tier of harm the federal inspection system recognizes. But the gap it describes is not a paperwork problem. A care plan for sexual inappropriate behaviors is the document that tells every nurse, every aide, every staff member who enters that resident's room what to do, how to respond, and how to protect both the resident and the people around them. Without it, staff are improvising. Without it, incidents go untracked. Without it, a pattern that might signal a medical change or a medication issue or a worsening of the underlying dementia stays invisible to the clinical team.
R2 has been at Fair View for over a year. The behavior was known at least by the time of the annual care conference in September 2025, when a family member felt the need to apologize for it in front of the clinical team. How long before that the behavior had been occurring, the inspection record does not say.
What the record does say is that the nurse who attended that meeting, who heard the family's apology, who knew she was responsible for updating the care plan, left the building that day and did not update it. Thirteen days later, a federal surveyor arrived and found the care plan exactly as it had been before the conference.
RN G told the surveyor she would fix it immediately. Whether the care plan that now exists in Fair View's electronic medical record is adequate, whether it gives staff what they need, whether it reflects the full picture of R2's behavior and history, the inspection report does not say.
The family member who apologized in that conference room almost certainly assumed something would be done.

CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.
Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.
Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.
Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.
