Review of the facility's investigation documentation revealed documentation of an interview with Resident #55 and a handwritten statement completed and signed by GNA #6 on 3/29/25. No documentation was found to indicate other interviews were conducted in regard to this allegation. On 9/24/25 at 3:58 PM interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed that the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) usually conducts the abuse investigations but when the NHA is not here then it goes to her (the DON).

When asked to describe what is involved in an investigation, the DON included getting statements from the resident, other residents and staff working at the time and potentially family.

The DON confirmed that she would interview more than just the resident and the accused.

Surveyor then discussed the concern that, based on review of the documentation provided, the only interviews conducted in relation to Resident #55's allegation, was Resident #55 and the accused GNA.

As of time of survey exit on 9/25/25 at 2:15 PM no additional documentation was provided in regard to this concern.

During the initial tour of the facility on 09/22/2025, at 9:06 AM, Residents #67 and #17 reported that the facility's food was bland and cold for foods that needed to be warm. An observation of the facility's lunch tray line service was conducted on 9/22/2025 at 12:30 PM.

The surveyor requested a test tray at that time.

The tray contained Roast beef, steamed vegetables, one dinner roll, margarine, pumpkin pie, vanilla ice cream, cranberry juice, roasted red potatoes, salt, and pepper.Staff #12, the Dietary Director, who was present, took the temperatures of the food items, which showed 137 degrees for the steamed vegetables, 121 degrees for the roasted potatoes, 146 degrees for the Roast beef, 63 degrees for the pumpkin pie, and 61 degrees for the cranberry juice.

Staff #12 indicated that the acceptable temperatures should have been 140-165 degrees F for the steamed vegetables, 140-165 degrees F for the roasted potatoes, 40 degrees F or less for the pumpkin pie, and cranberry juice. A review later that day of the facility's policy and procedure on food preparation and service contained a statement that while food is being stored, prepared, served or transported to the residents, it is protected from contamination. It is necessary to keep foods refrigerated below 45 degrees F and heated to temperatures above 140 degrees F to prevent the growth of any pathogenic organisms.

However, earlier observations of a test tray, taken directly from the food service line, showed temperatures lower than 140 degrees for foods that required warming and over 45 degrees for foods that needed to be kept cold.In an interview on 9/23/2025, at 4:51 PM, staff #12 reported that she would provide training to her staff on the proper temperatures of the food served to residents.
