In addition, the document requires the resident and sponsor agree to not hold the facility responsible for injury or harm that could have been avoided if they had hired a private duty nurse.Further review revealed a Risk Acknowledgement.

This form outlined the facility was not responsible for stolen, lost, or damaged personal property and were not responsible for the development of pressure sores, despite regulatory requirements prohibiting waiver of potential facility liability for losses of personal property and regulatory requirement to provide a quality of care that included treatment and services to prevent pressure sores. A separate welcome packet included a copy of the Always Available Menu included in the packet which indicated that they served tuna salad, egg salad, turkey sandwich, bologna sandwich, and pastrami sandwiches along with some other items. At the bottom of the sheet it noted, Any alternate chosen must reflect the kosher appropriate menu option (diary for dairy meal, meat for meat meal.) However, there was no other mention of the special dietary considerations in the welcome packet.An interview with the Hospital Liaison on 2/20/26 at 9:34 AM revealed that she was the person who talked to potential residents in the hospital.

She stated that they do not let the residents and/or resident's family know prior to admission and in writing that they follow a kosher diet.

She stated that she may mention it but does not go into any detail as to what it means unless they ask for further information.

She stated, Food is food and it should not make a difference that meat and dairy cannot be served in the same meal.The Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) was asked to provide proof that the admission policy/agreement was approved at the time of the change in ownership on 2/24/26 at 10:06 AM via a phone call and it was clarified with him on 2/24/26 at 10:14 AM. He was asked on 2/25/26 at 12:19 PM for the information.

However, he failed to provide the evidence.On 2/26/26 at 12:33 PM an interview with the NHA revealed he was unable to provide proof that the admission agreement was approved during the change in ownership in 2017 and confirmed that residents were not informed in writing prior to admission that they followed a kosher diet. He stated that it may be included in a brochure, but that he cannot be certain that it was given to every resident. In addition, the surveyor had asked for all information that was provided before and at the time of admission and he failed to provide such a brochure. He offered no rationale as to why the admission agreement and risk acknowledgement was not in compliance with the regulatory requirements.
