Concurrently observed the paint to be peeled off all around the room.
On 07/18/24 at 11:18 AM, an interview with DOM was done. DOM reported the maintenance department does a walk around the facility once a week and if they see paint peeling in a room, they will patch the room when it is unoccupied due to the smell. It takes about 24 hours for them to mud, sand, and paint the walls. DOM stated they just patched up Resident R29's room yesterday, 07/17/24, after the resident moved back to her previous room. DOM confirmed the maintenance department did not get a work order to patch the peeled paint in the room prior to the facility putting Resident R29 in the room with peeled paint across the walls.

F 0604 Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 43245 potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that 1 of 2 residents Residents Affected - Few (Resident 92) sampled was free from physical restraints that were not required to treat her medical symptoms. As a result of this deficient practice, Resident (R)92's patient rights were violated, and she was placed at risk of avoidable injury and/or a decline in her psychosocial well-being.
Findings include:
Resident (R)92 is a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care.
On 07/15/24 at 11:05 AM, the state agency (SA) observed Resident R92 quietly lying at the far end of the Unit 2 hallway in a Geri-chair that was fully reclined, with a wheelchair wedged under the extended/elevated footrest of the Geri-chair in such a way that even if Resident R92 could physically put the Geri-chair down (using the side handle to set the chair upright), the chair would not go down.
A review of the facility's Physical Restraint policy and procedure (P&P), last revised 03/2023, revealed the following:
The resident has the right to be free of abuse and is not limited to freedom from . any physical or chemical restraint not required to treat the resident's medical symptoms.
The P&P defines a physical restraint as:
. any manual method, physical or mechanical device, equipment or material that meets all the following criteria:
a. Is attached or adjacent to the resident's body;
b. Cannot be removed easily by the resident; and
c. Restricts the resident's freedom of movement or normal access to his body;
d. The resident will be able to be [sic] remove the restraint or device intentionally by the same manner as it was applied by the staff.
On 07/17/24 at 09:38 AM, an interview was done with Nurse Manager (NM)2 at the Unit 2 Nurses' Station (U2NS). When alerted of the observation on 07/15/24, NM2 did not appear surprised, and agreed that wedging a wheelchair under the extended footrests of a Geri-chair is a physical restraint, and should never happen. NM2 confirmed that due to restless/anxious behavior and a history of falling, Resident R92 required frequent supervision and ongoing medication adjustment, however, physical restraints were not appropriate.

Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, after receiving report of an injury of unknown origin from Resident (R)25's wife, the facility failed to report the allegation to the State Survey Agency (SA) and adult protective services (APS). In addition, the facility failed to report an allegation of abuse for one other Resident (Resident R209), out of three residents sampled for abuse, to other officials, including Adult Protective Services (APS). As a result of this deficiency, the facility did not allow the resident further review of the abuse by APS.
Findings include:
1) Resident (R)25 is an [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care. Resident R25's diagnoses include, but are not limited to, dementia, heart failure, muscle weakness, and lack of coordination.
A review of Resident R25's Minimum Data Set (MDS) Quarterly Review Assessment with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 04/24/24 noted Resident R25 had been assessed as completely dependent for all eating, hygiene, toileting, and mobility activities. In addition, his Staff Assessment for Mental Status indicated he had Memory problem[s], was not oriented to place, time, or staff names and faces, and his Cognitive Skills for Daily Decision Making had been determined as Severely impaired - never/rarely made decisions.
On 07/16/24 at 03:30 PM, observations of Resident R25 and a concurrent interview was done with his family member (FM)2 at the bedside. FM2 reported that on 07/15/24, she noticed that Resident R25's right hand, which he doesn't move [on his own], was all bruised and swollen. FM2 stated that she noticed the injury when she went to hold his right hand and he screamed in pain. When she questioned him about how it happened, Resident R25 indicated to her that a small man had hurt his hand. Observation of Resident R25's right hand noted dark purple bruising of the thumb pad portion of his palm extending to the lateral surface of his thumb. An interview was attempted with Resident R25 by the SA however, he was unable to respond verbally to any questions asked. FM2 also reported that a few weeks ago Resident R25 had a suspicious bruise on the bridge of his nose, like someone hit him, and several months ago, he had a bruise on his right hip that she had no idea how he could have gotten.
On 07/18/24 at 08:04 AM, an interview was done with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) and the Director of Infection Control (DIC), in the Administration Office. The ADON and DIC stated that the injury to Resident R25's right hip occurred in February 2024 and had been reported to the SA, but not to APS. The two more recent incidents had not been reported to either agency.
On 07/18/24 at 01:32 PM, an interview was done with the Assistant Administrator in the Conference Room.
The Assistant Administrator confirmed that the bruising to Resident R25's right hip was not reported to APS, but it should have been. She also confirmed that the bruising to Resident R25's nose from a few weeks ago was not reported to the SA or to APS but should have been since it was an injury of unknown origin. Regarding the current bruising to Resident R25's right hand, the Assistant Administrator reported that the facility had classified it as
an injury of known origin, and therefore had not reported it to the SA or to APS. The SA asked how it was determined to be an injury of known origin if the injury was initially identified by FM2 and reported to the facility for investigation? The Assistant Administrator stated she would check with the Director of Nursing (DON) and the DIC and report back.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 43245 potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, after being informed by adult protective services (APS) of an Residents Affected - Few allegation of abuse of 1 of 3 residents (Resident 569) sampled, the facility failed to document and provide evidence that the allegation had been thoroughly investigated.
Findings include:
Resident (R)569 is a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for short-term rehabilitation and skilled nursing services. Resident R569 was transferred to an acute care hospital on 04/26/24 with a diagnosis of hyperkalemia (a high level of the electrolyte potassium in her blood), and after refusing to go to hemodialysis.
On 05/21/24, the State Agency (SA) received a referral from APS (ACTS #10973) as a result of allegations of neglect made by Resident R569 against facility staff. A review of the referral from APS revealed possible indicators that Resident R569 had been physically and/or sexually abused at the facility as well.
On 07/16/24 at 10:45 AM, the SA requested from the Assistant Administrator the facility's investigation packet related to Resident R569's allegation(s).
On 07/18/24 at 07:54 AM, an interview was done with the Assistant Administrator and the Director of Infection Control (DIC) in the Administration Office. The DIC confirmed that on 05/23/24, APS requested Resident R569's entire record directly from medical records. APS also asked that someone from facility administration contact them. The interim Director of Nursing (IDON), who no longer works for the company, was responsible to contact APS at that time. The DIC reported that the facility was unable to locate any documentation by IDON of what her conversation with APS entailed. IDON simply reported that she had taken care of it. The DIC and Assistant Administrator both agreed that they would have wanted to know what specifically APS was investigating so that the facility could initiate their own investigation into it. They also confirmed that they would expect to see the APS discussion documented somewhere, but since there was no documentation, a facility investigation was not initiated, and nothing had been reported to the SA. In addition, both acknowledged that if APS was investigating, it stood to reason that it involved allegations covered under the facility's Freedom from Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation P&P.
A review of the facility's Freedom from Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation policy and procedure (P&P) for Abuse Reporting and Responsibilities of Covered Individuals, last revised 03/2023, revealed the following:

Resident R29 did not receive proper foot nail care. This puts the resident at risk for cuts and wounds on her feet.
Findings include:
Resident R29 was admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] with diagnoses, not limited to, restless legs syndrome, type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, dementia, and peripheral vascular disease.
Review of Resident R29's Electronic Health Record (EHR) found on 06/16/24 Resident R29 had a wound to her left big toe. A nursing progress note dated 06/16/24 documented a skin check and assessment of Resident R29 left big toe done, .a small amount of pus came out when .cleaned .up .dry skin on the front of the toe came out, showing a pinkish red color. Bottom of the resident left big toe was reddish purplish in color. On 06/28/24, Resident R29 was sent to the emergency room for further evaluation of an infection of the left big toe and admitted to the hospital due to wound infected with pseudomonas orzyhabitans and gangrene of the left big toe. On 07/07/24 Resident R29's left big toe was amputated. Resident R29 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED].
On 07/16/24 at 10:11 AM, an interview with Family Member (FM) 4 was done. FM4 reported Resident R29's left big toe was amputated due to an infection and gangrene. FM4 was not sure how she got the wound on her toe
in the first place because Resident R29 was not mobile and stated after the facility informed her of the wound and the progression to an infection, it happened so fast. FM4 mentioned that the facility does not cut Resident R29's toenails, her toenails are long, thick, and close to the nail bed. FM4 did not recall the last time Resident R29 had her toenails cut, and believed she did not get them cut since she was admitted in 2022. FM4 stated Resident R29 has not seen a podiatrist.
On 07/16/24 at 01:00 PM, concurrent observation of Resident R29's right foot toenails with FM4 were done. Resident R29's toenails were long, thick, and digging into her nailbed.
On 07/17/24 at 02:27 PM, an interview with Certified Nurse's Aide (CNA) 5 was done. CNA5 reported the facility had never cut Resident R29's toenails because she was diabetic.
On 07/17/24 at 01:48 PM, an interview and concurrent record review with Nurse Manager (NM) 1 was done. NM1 reported that nail care for diabetic residents are done by the charge nurse, however, for toenails, it is normally referred to the podiatrist if the nails are thickened and the resident is diabetic. Concurrent review of Resident R29's EHR, found there was no indication that Resident R29 had seen or was referred to a podiatrist since she was admitted to the facility. No documentation that Resident R29 had toenail care while in the facility.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 43245 potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure there was an ongoing Residents Affected - Few resident-centered activities program that fully identified and met the resident's needs, for 2 of 3 residents sampled for activity (Residents 171 and 198). As a result of this deficient practice, both residents were placed at risk of experiencing a decline in their psychosocial well-being and quality of life. This deficient practice has the potential to affect all residents at the facility.
Findings include:
1) Resident (R)171 is a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care. Resident R171's admitting diagnoses include, but are not limited to, heart disease, diabetes, dementia, depression, and history of a right above the knee amputation. A review of Resident R171's Minimum Data Set (MDS) Admission Assessment with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 02/05/24 noted Resident R171 had been assessed with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 13, indicating a determination that he was cognitively intact.
On 07/16/24 at 08:36 AM, an interview was done with Resident R171 at his bedside. When asked about activities, Resident R171 stated that staff do not take him out of his room to activities. When he asks to get up out of bed for activities, he is told you cannot walk, you have to lay there. Resident R171 complained that staff never get him up out of bed, and no one comes into his room to offer him individual activities such as puzzles or books either. Resident R171 stated he would like to go out to activities occasionally, but staff refuse to get him up.
On 07/17/24 at 01:01 PM, an interview was done with the activities director (AD) in her office. When asked how often one-to-one activities are offered to residents who do not leave their rooms, AD responded that in-room activities should be offered 3-4 times a week. Resident R171's activity log for the last three months was requested, however AD reported she can only provide a log for the last 30 days. During a concurrent review of Resident R171's activity log for the last 30 days, AD confirmed that she did not see documentation of any activities being offered to Resident R171. AD reported that the facility does have dog therapy three times a week, and that she knows Resident R171 enjoys that, but that too should be documented on the activity log. AD could not explain why there was no documentation found of any activities being offered. AD confirmed that even if Resident R171 had been offered but refused activities, it should still be documented on the activity log.
2) Resident R198 is a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care. Resident R198's diagnoses include, but are not limited to, left-sided paralysis and weakness following a stroke, aphasia (a language disorder that affects how you communicate; caused by damage in the part of the brain that controls language expression and comprehension), depression, and generalized muscle weakness.
On 07/15/24 at 09:16 AM, an observation was done of Resident R198 lying in bed awake in a silent room. Resident R198 had no visible television or radio and appeared bored.
On 07/16/24 at 08:20 AM, observed Resident R198 again lying awake in bed in a room that was completely silent.

in 30 days. The AD stated that she knew Resident R198 often declined activities that were offered, however, reviewing his activity log, it did not appear that staff were documenting his declinations as they should be. The AD stated she would expect to see 1:1 activities offered 3-4 times a week. When asked about a television or radio for him, the AD stated televisions must be provided by the resident, but she could offer Resident R198 a radio to keep at his bedside.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 42160 potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the nursing treatment and Residents Affected - Few care provided met the needs of 2 of 37 residents (Residents 188 and 171) in the sample and was in alignment with standards of good clinical practice. As a result of this deficient practice, the residents were placed at risk of avoidable injury and/or complications and were hindered from attaining their highest practicable well-being.
Findings include:
1) Resident R188 was returned to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] from an acute hospital. Review of the acute hospital's discharge summary, Resident R188 presented on 04/03/24 with sepsis with suspected sacral Skin and Soft Tissue Infection (SSTI) and associated complications. A blood culture confirmed bacteremia with gram positive cocci which is known to cause skin infections, pneumonia, endocarditis (life-threatening inflammation of the inner lining of the heart's chambers and valves), septic arthritis (painful infection in a joint that travel through
the bloodstream to other parts of the body), osteomyelitis (swelling or inflammation that occurs in the bone), and abscesses (a buildup of pus under the skin which can affect any part of the body).
Review of Resident R188's skin assessments confirmed the resident currently has a stage 4 Pressure Ulcer (PU) (full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon, or muscle) on the sacral region; stage 4 PU of the left hip;
a Deep Tissue Injury (DTI) which is a purple/maroon localized area of blood filled blister due to damage of underlying soft tissue due from pressure and/or shearing; and four (4) open lesion to the front left knee, the front loser lateral leg, right dorsum foot, and front right knee. Resident R188 is currently on contact precautions, which require staff to don gloves and a gown for all interactions that may involve contact with the resident or resident's environment to contain pathogens which could be spread to other residents.
Review of Resident R188's most recent annual MDS, with an ARD of 02/27/24, documented the resident BIMS score of 11 indicating the resident has moderate cognitive impairment. Section GG- Functional Abilities and Goals documented Resident R113 has functional limitation in ROM with impairment on one side for the upper (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand) and lower (hip, knee, ankle, foot) extremities. Resident R188 is dependent (helper does all the effort. resident does none of the effort to complete activity) on staff for toileting hygiene, shower/bathe, lower body dressing, personal hygiene, putting on/taking off footwear, and chair to bed transfers.
- Observations of Resident R188's physical environment on 07/17/24 at 09:17 AM, the shower room contained dark green and black organic growth, which was fuzzy and raised in appearance, with a strong musty smell on the shower floor room, wall, the connection points of the handheld showerhead tubing, and showerhead spout.
The organic growth was persistent throughout the handheld shower that it clogged the small holes on the showerhead which the water comes out of directly onto the resident.

- On 07/18/24 at 10:58 AM, while sitting at the nursing station, this surveyor heard Resident R188 calling out for staff, saying Hello, can anybody hear me? Hello and calling out for RN42. Observed two CNAs walk past Resident R188's room and did not address the resident's calls for help. A moment later, RN42 walked to the medication cart located across Resident R188's room door, while the resident continued to yell out for staff. RN42 was on the computer located on the medication cart and not passing any medication. At 11:12 AM, RN42 entered the room and addressed Resident R188's calls for staff assistance.
Review of Resident R188's fall care plan documented interventions including, Anticipate and meet the resident's needs, he usually doesn't call for assist (date revised 04/26/2024). and Be sure the resident's call light is within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed. The resident needs prompt response to all request for assistance (Date initiated: 11/21/2023).
- On 07/19/24 at 11:27 AM, entered Resident R188's room and observed the resident's right foot was not properly placed in the boot for pressure ulcer prevention and the open lesion on the side of the resident's big toe was
in direct contact with the bed sheet. There were dried blood stains on the bedsheet from the open lesion indicating the resident's foot had not just recently become dislodged from the protective boot. Observed Resident R188's catheter bag in direct contact with the ground. The catheter bag cover was present but had not been properly applied. on the ground with no covering. The resident appeared to be struggling to grab the side rail attached to the bed. When asked what he was doing, the resident requested for this surveyor to pass him the pancake call light which was located on top a drawer located out of the resident's reach. Inquired why the call light was on the drawer out of reach the resident's reach. Resident R188 reported that staff often puts the call light
on the drawer because staff tell him he calls for staff too much. At 11:31 AM, CNA81 entered Resident R188's room and inquired about Resident R188's boot, which was not properly applied, the catheter bag uncovered and, on the floor, and the call light being out of the resident's reach. CNA81 confirmed Resident R188 is totally dependent on staff and confirmed Resident R188's foot should have been placed in the boot properly, the catheter bag should have been covered and hanging off the ground, and the call light should have been within the resident's reach but was not. CNA81 then placed the call light next to the resident, picked up and covered the catheter bag and hung
it from the bedside, then grabbed the resident's hand and assisted the resident with grabbing the side rail and was not wearing a gown or gloves. Inquired if CNA81 should be wearing a gown and gloves to be following proper PPEs for a resident on contact precaution. CNA81 confirmed he/she should have donned a gown and glove prior to being in direct contact with Resident R188 or the resident's physical environment.

On 07/16/24 at 08:52 AM, observed Resident R171 lying in bed with both arms severely bruised with old and new bruises. His left leg was also noted to have extensive old and new bruises. Resident R171 stated he did not know how
he was getting the bruises because he is never allowed to get up out of bed.
A review of Resident R171's physician orders noted Resident R171 was taking Apixaban (an anticoagulant that decreases the clotting ability of the blood and helps prevent harmful clots from forming) 5 mg (milligrams) twice a day.
A review of Resident R171's Comprehensive Care Plan (CCP) for the Focus of Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet revealed the following intervention:
Bleeding Precautions: Report any bruising to the nurse. Observe gentle handling during care.
For the Focus of Skin Impairment, the following intervention was noted initiated on 06/05/24:
The resident needs protective sleeves for the arms.
A follow-up review of the physician orders noted no orders for any type of skin protection or covering to help minimize the risk of bruising.
On 07/17/24 at 09:58 AM, an interview was done with Nurse Manager (NM)2 at the Unit 2 Nurses' Station (U2NS). NM2 confirmed that Resident R171 rarely is gotten up out of bed into a wheelchair because he has poor trunk control. When asked about the bruising on Resident R171's extremities, NM2 reported that staff is aware of the bruising, but does not think Resident R171 has been offered skin protection before. NM2 agreed given the extent of
the bruising despite being bed-bound, skin protection is something that should have been implemented.
On 07/18/24 at 10:46 AM, a follow-up interview was done with NM2 at the U2NS.

F 0688 Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 43245
Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure 2 of 3 residents (Residents 199 and 20) sampled for limited range of motion (ROM) received the appropriate treatment and services to prevent, or delay, further decrease in their ROM, mobility, and independence. As a result of this deficient practice, Resident (R)199 can no longer be transferred into his motorized wheelchair, and Resident R20 now has contractures to her left hand that were not present at admission. These outcomes hinder both their abilities to reach their highest practicable well-being. This deficient practice has the potential to affect all the residents at
the facility.
Findings include:
1) Resident (R)199 is a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care related to his diagnosis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a disease affecting nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing progressive loss of voluntary movements and muscle control, and eventually leading to death.
A review of Resident R199's MDS Significant Change in Status Assessment with an ARD of 04/05/24 noted Resident R199 had been assessed with a BIMS score of 15, indicating a determination that he was cognitively intact.
On 07/15/24 at 01:57 PM, an interview was done with Resident R199 at his bedside on Unit 2. When asked about staffing, Resident R199 stated that since November 2023, there has been a real lack of staff. As a result, he feels that
the care has decreased since he got here a year ago. Resident R199 reported that the unit seems especially short in
the mornings because of showers, morning hygiene, toileting, and breakfast. Resident R199 explained that he has filed multiple grievances regarding staffing and quality of care, but things have not changed. States that he is so tired of being told we [the facility] are short-staffed by management. When asked how the staffing problems may have contributed to a specific outcome for him, Resident R199 stated that from January through March of 2024, he should have had half an hour of Restorative Nurse Assistant (RNA) services five (5) days a week, but he didn't. As a result of his ALS, Resident R199 is paralyzed from the neck down, and needs passive range of motion (PROM) to be performed regularly. During those 3 months I should have been getting it [PROM] 5 days a week, I think I got it maybe 5 times total. Resident R199 further explained that on Christmas Day 2023, he was able to stand and pivot with assistance and sit in his $50,000 motorized wheelchair. Now he cannot even be mechanically transferred to sit in his wheelchair because his knees have locked up and can no longer bend. Resident R199 feels that if he had received the RNA services as scheduled, he would still be able to bend his knees, sit in his wheelchair, and have home visits. Resident R199 stated he has not been out since Christmas day. Resident R199 also stated that he has not had RNA services for weeks because they are always pulling the RNA to do CNA [Certified Nurse Aide] duties.

F 0688 On 07/17/24 at 10:15 AM, an interview was done with RNA1 on Unit 2. RNA1 stated he has been an RNA at
the facility since 2020. RNA1 confirmed that Resident R199 should be receiving RNA services 5 days a week. RNA1 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or also confirmed that the facility is aware of the contractures (permanent tightening of the muscles, tendons, potential for actual harm skin, and nearby tissues that causes the joints to shorten and become very stiff) to Resident R199's knees and that
they can no longer bend without great pain. RNA1 could not remember when he first noticed the knee Residents Affected - Few contractures but confirmed that Resident R199 did not have them on Christmas day 2023 when he sat in his motorized wheelchair and went home for a visit. RNA1 acknowledged that the unit was especially short-staffed from January to March 2024, yeah, it was bad. Explained that RNAs are responsible for RNA treatments Monday through Saturday, and to weigh the residents on Sundays. RNA1 stated that there are no relievers so when
he is off, there is no RNA coverage on the unit. When asked about how often Resident R199 has missed receiving RNA/PROM services, RNA1 explained that the RNAs are like the CNAs, we're short-staffed and we get to as many people per day as we can. RNA1 stated that there are 31 residents on Unit 2 scheduled to receive RNA services 5 days a week, there is no way one RNA can get through that many residents in one day.
A review of the RNA logs for January through March 2024 revealed documentation of Resident R199 receiving RNA services 14 out of the 65 times it was scheduled in that 3-month period. A review of the RNA log for July 1-17, 2024, revealed documentation that Resident R199 had received RNA services 1 out of the 12 times he was scheduled.
On 07/18/24 at 02:13 PM, an interview was done with the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR) and Occupational Therapist (OT)1. While both were unsure if contractures were unavoidable in residents with ALS, OT1 (who has worked with Resident R199) agreed that his knee contractures would not have occurred at the rate and severity it is now had he received the RNA services/PROM 5 times a week as ordered.
On 07/18/24 at 03:00 PM, an interview was done with the Director of Nursing (DON) in her office. DON acknowledged that contractures do occur when ROM/PROM is not done. Stated that she was uncertain if contractures were avoidable in residents with ALS and was looking for documentation.
2) Resident (R)20 is a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] for long-term care. Resident R20's admitting diagnoses include, but are not limited to, left-sided paralysis and weakness following a stroke, heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, and lymphedema (swelling that generally occurs in an arm or leg, caused by a blockage in the lymphatic system). A review of Resident R20's Minimum Data Set (MDS) Annual Assessment with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 05/29/24 noted Resident R20 had been assessed with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 14, indicating a determination that she was cognitively intact.
On 07/16/24 at 09:32 AM, an interview was done with Resident R20 at her bedside. Resident R20 stated that she currently has left finger contractures that she did not have when she was admitted here 2 years ago, somebody thought
they were helping me and massaging my tendons and they went a little too far. As a result, Resident R20 reported that
she wears a hand splint for a few hours every day. Resident R20 stated that the contractures did not bother her or hinder her from performing her activities of daily living.
On 07/18/24 at 10:59 AM, an interview was done with Registered Nurse (RN)15 and Nurse Manager (NM)2 at the Unit 2 Nurses' Station (U2NS). During a concurrent review of Resident R20's electronic health record (EHR), both confirmed that Resident R20 was not admitted with any contractures and that they should not have occurred.

2) On 07/18/24 at 01:57 PM, during an interview with resident council members, Resident R50 reported during their monthly resident council meetings, residents expressed the facility is short staffed and it has not been resolved. Resident council members reported that the residents have been told there should be at least six certified nurse's aides (CNA) on each floor, the same number of workers, but not based on units' acuity and census. However, residents are finding that there are only four to five CNAs on the units. Resident council members expressed the facility should staff the units based on acuity and census, and there are units with residents who need one on one supervision, but the facility cannot provide an assigned person which effects
the other residents' care. Staff who are floaters, take long to provide care because they are not familiar with
the resident and their routine. Instead of following the residents wishes on how they prefer to receive care
they treat them as a task and just do it how they want to provide the care.
Review of the resident council minutes for May 2024, June 2024, and July 2024 document short staffing on all floors, Nurses not assisting w/CNA when short on the floor, More Staffing on the floor. Scheduler removing staff who has already completed 3 hrs.

On 07/18/24 at 10:57 AM, during an interview with Director of Nursing (DON), DON reported staff members have expressed they are short staffed, and the RNA staff will volunteer to provide extra support when short staffed.
On 07/19/24 at 12:12 PM, interview with Scheduler (S) 1 and S2 was done. S1 reported there is a criteria flow sheet (CNA matrix) they follow based on the census amount for each unit and staff accordingly. If there are residents who need one to one supervision, nursing staff communicate this and the schedulers will try to accommodate. Concurrent review of the facility's CNA matrix includes the ratio of one CNA for seven residents (1:7). During a full census on sampled units, Unit 2, Unit 4, and Unit 5, a minimum 36 residents. the matrix indicates six CNA's to be scheduled during the day shift on each unit.

3) On 07/15/24 at 08:29 AM, initial interview conducted with Resident R42 in his room. Resident R42 said staffing has declined since COVID started in 2020 and it has affected the care provided to the residents.
On 07/16/24 at 09:13 AM, a follow-up interview was conducted with Resident R42. Asked Resident R42 how his care has been affected by the staffing decline he mentioned in an earlier interview. Resident R42 said that Unit 4 was supposed to have six CNAs on day shift but there are some days when they would only have five. Resident R42 said that when
they don't have enough staff, he would have to wait longer for service, up to 20 minutes. Resident R42 stated, I would suffer a bit since I'm not able to move. I always ask for two people to move me. If there's only one, it's hard
on them and me. It's safer if there are two. Resident R42 added that when they are short of staff, he would have to wait longer for his meals, would not get his scheduled shower, and the dressing change for his wounds are delayed.
On 07/17/24 at 08:23 AM, observed the staffing board at Unit 4 listed two registered nurses (RN) and five CNAs scheduled to work. Asked RN5 if they had enough staff schedule for the shift. RN5 said they were short one CNA since they are supposed to have six. When asked how often are they short of staff, RN5 did not answer the question. RN5 instead said, The administration tries their best to get us staff by asking for OT (overtime) or calling agency staff. Census for Unit 5 was 40.
On 07/19/24, the staffing board at Unit 4's nurse's station had two registered nurses and five CNAs scheduled to work. Census for Unit 5 was 40.

Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement a thorough process in narcotic log documentation and reconciliation. This deficient practice hinders the process necessary to promptly identify loss or potential diversion of the controlled medications used to meet the needs of the residents.
Findings include:
On 07/17/24 at 09:22 AM, an inspection of the Unit 2 Medication Cart #1 was done with Nurse Manager (NM)2. While reviewing the narcotic log, the following discrepancies in narcotic log documentation and actual narcotic count were observed by the State Agency (SA) and confirmed by NM2:
Oxycodone IR [immediate release] 5 milligrams (mg). Narcotic log shows there should be twenty-three (23) tablets remaining in the blister pack; only twenty-one (21) tablets observed.
Clonazepam 0.5 mg. Narcotic log shows there should be sixteen (16) tablets remaining in the blister pack; only fifteen (15) tablets observed.
Interview done with NM2 at the time confirmed that all narcotics should be signed out on the narcotic log when pulled from the medication cart, not after the medication(s) are given.
On 07/19/24 at 10:54 AM, an interview was done with the Director of Nursing (DON) in the Conference Room. DON stated the expectation is that narcotics should be signed out on the narcotic log as soon as they are dispensed from their containers/blister packs.

Findings include:
1) On [DATE REDACTED] at 08:54 AM, an inspection was done of the Unit 2 medication cart #2 with Registered Nurse (RN)15. Observed a vial of Lantus insulin for Resident (R)8 where the open dates and discard dates written
on both the vial itself, and the box it was in, were completely unreadable. RN15 confirmed that since the information was indecipherable, the insulin vial needed to be discarded to ensure Resident R8 would not be administered expired insulin. At 09:03 AM, observed an Admelog Solostar insulin pen for Resident R8 that was labeled with an open date of [DATE REDACTED] but no discard date. RN15 confirmed that the insulin pen was not labeled correctly as it should also have a discard date written in.
