PANOLA COUNTY NURSING & REHABILITATION

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review (PASRR) program to include all residents with newly evident or possible serious mental disorder for 1 of 7 residents (Resident #28) reviewed for the PASRR program. The facility failed to ensure Resident #28 was referred for a PASRR (Level II) evaluation when she admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a possible serious mental disorder. This failure could place residents at risk for a diminished quality of life and not receiving necessary care and services in accordance with individually assessed needs.The findings included: Record review of the face sheet, dated 08/13/25, reflected Resident #28 was a [AGE] year-old female who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type (chronic mental health condition characterized primarily by symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations or delusions, and symptoms of a mood disorder, such as mania and depression). Record review of the PASRR Level 1 Screening form, dated 09/30/24, reflected Resident #28 had no evidence or indicator of a mental illness. No PASRR Level II screening was completed. Record review of the admission MDS assessment, dated 10/10/24, reflected Resident #28 was not considered by the state level II PASRR process to have serious mental illness. The MDS reflected Resident #28 had clear speech, was understood by others, and was able to understand others. Resident #28 had a BIMS score of 15, which indicated no cognitive impairment. Resident #28 had no documented behaviors or refusal of care during the look-back period. The MDS reflected Resident #28 had an active diagnosis of Schizophrenia, which included schizoaffective disorder. Record review of the comprehensive care plan, initiated on 10/07/24, reflected Resident #28 had a mood problem related to a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type and was taking psychotropic medication. During an interview on 08/13/25 beginning at 5:33 PM, the MDS Coordinator stated she was responsible for obtaining the PL1 from the referring entity, entering the PL1 into the system, and coordinating with the local authority when it was needed. The MDS Coordinator stated she reviewed the PL1 and any diagnoses prior to the residents admitting to the facility. The MDS Coordinator stated if the PL1 was inaccurate and needed to be changed, she normally called the hospital or referring entity and asked them to change it, or she would change it in the system, or a form 1012 could have been completed, as needed. The MDS Coordinator stated some of the diagnoses that she looked for prior to admission were schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The MDS Coordinator stated the local authority made the determination of eligibility after a positive PL1 was submitted. The MDS Coordinator stated Resident #28's PL1 screening should have been positive for mental illness because of her diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder. The MDS Coordinator stated she was not working full time at the facility during the time period Resident #28 admitted . The MDS Coordinator stated she was going to enter a new PL1 and notify the local authority. During an interview on 08/13/25 beginning at 6:08 PM, the Administrator stated she expected the correct PASRR documentation to have been on file at the facility. The Administrator stated if the PL1 screening was incorrect, it should have been fixed so the local authority could have completed the level II PASRR evaluation. The Administrator stated the MDS coordinator was responsible for coordinating the PASRR services and performed audits on admission. The Administrator stated it was important to ensure PL1 screening was accurate to ensure residents received the correct services at the facility. Record review of the admission Criteria policy, revised March 2019, reflected all new admissions and readmissions are screened for mental disorders (MD), intellectual disabilities (ID) or related disorders (RD) per the Medicaid PASRR process. the facility conducts a Level 1 PASRR screen for all potential admission, regardless of payer source to determine if the individual meets the criteria for a MD, ID, or RD. if the level I screen indicates that the individual may meet the criteria for a MD, ID, or RD, he or she is referred to the state PASRR representative for the Level II (evaluation and determination) screening process .

She said nursing staff chart what they did to get paid for providing services. LVN A said CNAs charted meal intake, which was important to address weight decline, help decide if a resident needed a health shake, and to know if the resident received proper nutrition. She not documenting meal intake could provide the wrong information or picture to upper management, MD, or dietician. LVN A said nurses should make sure CNAs document meal intakes. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 2:41 p.m., CNA B said CNAs were responsible for documenting every meal intake in the computer system. She said after each meal CNAs were supposed to write percentages on a sheet in the dining room then input the information into the computer system as soon as possible. CNA B said it was important to document meal intakes to see if residents were eating, monitor weight loss, decide if they needed a supplement. She said good meal intake was important for nutrition and wound healing. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 2:28 p.m., the MDS coordinator said she was responsible for MDSs and care plans for the facility. She said Resident #4, Resident #19 and Resident #33 were coded on the MDS for limited range of motion. The MDS coordinator said some residents had limited range of motion without having contractures. She said if the limited range of motion did not affect their functional ability or there was no contracture diagnosis then she would not care plan the limited range of motion. The MDS coordinator said until recently she worked from home and could not assess residents limited range of motion. She said she did get a list of residents today (04/19/23) of all the residents with contractures and was in the process of making care plan problems. The MDS coordinator said she assessed Resident #4, Resident #19, and Resident #33 and they had limited range of motion with contractures which should have been care planned. She said the Rehab Director had also recently started so they had not developed a process to communicate with each other about resident with contractures and intervention in place by therapy that needed to be added to the care plan such as Resident #4's interventions. The MDS coordinator said the facility was going to start having daily skilled nursing meetings regarding residents with limited range of motion/contractures, therapy, and restorative care instead of weekly to help ensure residents care areas were properly care planned. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 3:51 p.m., the DON said residents with limited range of motion and/or contractures such as Resident #19 and Resident #33 should have had a care plan developed. She said if the limited range of motion was coded on the MDS, then it should have been care planned. The DON said the MDS coordinator, nurses, and interdisciplinary team were responsible for the development of comprehensive care plans. She said care plans were important to inform staff of what the resident needed, and the care plan was able to be viewed by CNAs in the computer system. The DON said CNAs were responsible for charting meal intakes. She said nurses were responsible to ensure it was happening. The DON said it helped determine weight loss causes. She said it was important to ensure the residents received adequate nutrition. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 4:46 p.m., the Administrator said in daily morning meetings they discussed issues and decided what should be care planned. He said care plans let all staff know the plan of care for the residents. The ADM said it was a type of communication between staff members, residents, and resident representatives. He said the MDS coordinator and nurses were responsible for the development of care plans. The ADM said the corporate MDS coordinator should be overseeing the process. <BR/>Record review of the facility's Contracture list dated 04/17/23 revealed the list included Resident #4, Resident #19, and Resident #33. <BR/>Record review of a facility Resident Mobility and Range of Motion policy dated 07/17 revealed .the care plan will be developed by the interdisciplinary team based on the comprehensive assessment, and will be revised as needed .the care plan will include specific intervention s, exercises and therapies to maintain, prevent avoidable decline in, and/or improve mobility and range of motion .the care plan will include the type, frequency, and duration of intervention, as well as measurable goals and objectives <BR/>Record review of a facility Food and Nutrition Services policy dated 10/17 revealed .nursing personnel, with the assistance of the food and nutrition services staff, will evaluate (and document as indicated) food and fluid intake of residents with, or at risk for, significant nutritional problems .variations from usual eating or intake pattern will be recorded in the resident's medical record and brought to the nurse attention .<BR/> <BR/>

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident's person-centered comprehensive care plan was reviewed and revised by the interdisciplinary team after each assessment for 1 of 17 residents (Residents #50), reviewed for care plans.<BR/>The facility failed to revise and update Resident #50's comprehensive care plan to reflect change in diet order from regular to pureed.<BR/>The facility failed to revise and update Resident #50's comprehensive care plan to reflect swallowing disorder of coughing or choking during meals or when swallowing medications.<BR/>The facility failed to ensure Resident #50's care plan for ADL dependence was updated to reflect a change from substantial-maximal assist to dependent assist with transfer per the MDS. <BR/>These deficient practices could affect residents by placing them at risk of not receiving appropriate interventions to meet their current needs.<BR/>Findings included:<BR/>Record review of a face sheet printed 06/03/24 indicated Resident #50 was [AGE] year-old, male and was admitted [DATE] with diagnoses including dementia (is a general term for loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life) and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing).<BR/>Record review of Resident #50's consolidated physician orders active as of 06/03/24 indicated regular diet, pureed texture, regular consistency, divided plate for all meals for pocketing.

She said she looked at new orders and they were discussed in morning meeting. She said the ADON/DON also did acute care changes, but she primarily did those too. She said Resident #50's diet should have been updated from regular to pureed. She said she had actually feed Resident #50, and she had a pureed diet. She said she did not normally care plan if the resident had choking or coughing with meals. She said but that was not a bad idea to start adding it to the care plan. She said if care plans were not updated then staff did not know if there were changes in the resident's care.<BR/>During an interview on 06/05/24 at 1:30 p.m., CNA H said Resident #50 was a one person transfer but should have been a two-person transfer.

Resident #6 completed a brief trauma assessment on [DATE] which indicated a positive trauma screen. This failure could place residents at an increased risk for psychological distress due to re-traumatization.Findings included: Record review of Resident #6's face sheet dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]. Resident #6 had diagnoses including post-traumatic stress disorder (is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event), generalized anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry about various everyday events and activities), major depressive disorder (is a serious mental health condition characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, and difficulty functioning in daily life), and intermittent explosive disorder (is a behavioral disorder characterized by episodes of impulsive aggression that are disproportionate to the situation). Record review of Resident #6's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6 was usually understood and usually had the ability to understand others. Resident #6 had a BIMS score of 14 which indicated intact cognition. Resident #6 did not have experience psychosis or behavioral symptoms. Resident #6 had an active diagnosis of PTSD. Record review of Resident #6's care plan dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6 had ADL self-care performance deficit related to hemiplegia following cerebral infarction affecting the right side and PTSD. Intervention included praise all efforts at self-care. Resident #6's care plan did not reflect triggers, interventions, and goals related to her PTSD diagnosis. Record review of Resident #6's Brief Trauma Questionnaire dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6 had experienced being made or pressured into some type of unwanted sexual contact and she thought her life was in danger or might be seriously injured. Resident #6 also experienced a close family member or friend who died violently. The Brief Trauma Questionnaire indicated that none of the above questions were answered with a yes. The Brief Trauma Questionnaire did not reflect the date and time an IDT meeting was scheduled regarding interventions and plan of care. Record review of Resident #6's progress note dated [DATE] by the MDS Coordinator indicated, .spoke with resident [Resident #6] about her brief trauma questionnaire and her answers on that form.Resident [#6] stated that her triggers are.1. Too many people talking to her at once.2. No male CNAs.Resident [#6] did state that all that was a long time ago and she has not had any triggers since moving into the facility. During an interview and observation on [DATE] at 10:29 a.m., Resident #6 was heading out of her room. LVN C said Resident #6 was headed out to smoke. Resident #6 looked at the surveyor and appeared anxious. Resident #6 walked to the smoking area, unable to complete interview. LVN C said Resident #6 was an anxious person. During an interview and observation on [DATE] at 11:42 a.m., Resident #6 was heading out of her room. CNA F told Resident #6 the surveyor wanted to talk to her. Resident #6 shook her head and said, no! Unable to complete interview. During an interview on [DATE] at 12:43 p.m., the SS said she had started in [DATE]. She said she did not complete Resident #6's Brief Trauma Questionnaire. She said the MDS Coordinator would be responsible for care planning Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis. During an interview on [DATE] at 12:45 p.m., the MDS Coordinator said she was responsible for the resident's initial care plans. She said the ADON and DON completed the acute care plans. She said the SS, AD, and DM completed their portion of the care plan. She said SS completed the Brief Trauma Questionnaire. She said if the resident triggered for experiencing trauma, then the SS notified the DON. She said the SS would initiate the PTSD care plan in the beginning and everyone else would add to it. She said the PTSD care plan was important to know Resident #6's triggers. She said due to Resident #6 not having a PTSD care plan, the staff would not know her triggers and may have caused some triggers. She said on admission, the IDT met to discuss each resident. She said the IDT also met quarterly to discuss the resident's care plans. She said she did not remember Resident #6 mentioning any triggers during the care plan meetings. During an interview and observation on [DATE] at 1:17 p.m., Resident #6 was lying in her bed. Resident #6 said she was sleeping. Unable to complete interview regarding the PTSD diagnosis. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:00 p.m., the ADON A said the DON was responsible care plans for acute changes of care. She said she was responsible for infection control and wound care plans. She said she would expect Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis to be care planned. She said if Resident #6 was admitted with the PTSD diagnosis, the MDS Coordinator would be responsible for the care plan. She said if Resident #6 developed the diagnosis after admission, then it would be an acute change of care. She said then the IDT would be responsible for Resident #6's PTSD care plan. She said the PTSD care plan for Resident #6 was important because it was a broad knowledge of the resident's issue. She said the staff would also know to factor in the PTSD diagnosis into Resident #6's care and treatment. She said not having Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis care planned placed her at risk for the staff accidently doing triggers and experiencing acute events. She said the IDT was responsible for overseeing the care planning process. She said the process was monitored by audit reviews and the care plan meetings. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:24 p.m., CNA E said she knew Resident #6's triggers. She said Resident #6's triggers were telling her, No, going into her room, and not having cigarettes. She said she would want to know Resident #6's triggers related to her PTSD diagnosis. She said the CNAs had access to the resident's care plan in the facility's charting system. She said the resident's care plan interventions told the staff how to take care of the resident. She said when the resident's PTSD diagnosis was not care planned, the staff could trigger the resident. She said if Resident #6 got a male CNA, she would cuss him out. She said it would also upset her. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:42 p.m., LVN D said the MDS Coordinator, DON, ADON, and SS were responsible for the trauma informed care plans. She said she would want Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis care planned. She said she would want to know Resident #6's triggers related to the PTSD diagnosis. She said the trauma care plan was important so everyone knew what was needed to care for Resident #6. She said if Resident #6 experienced her triggers, she could cry, become aggressive, or be retraumatized. During an interview on [DATE] at 3:04 p.m., the DON said all the staff were responsible for providing the resident with trauma informed care. She said Resident #6 should have been assessed for her triggers related to her PTSD diagnosis. She said one of the interventions would be to make sure Resident #6 only had female caregivers. She said it was important to care plan Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis to avoid triggers. She said she interviewed Resident #6 before admission to the facility. She said Resident #6 told her she did not want male CNAs. She said when a resident's PTSD diagnosis was not care planned, the facility staff could cause triggers. She said the resident could experience emotional distress. During an interview on [DATE] at 5:02 p.m., the ADM said she would expect a resident who experienced trauma or had a PTSD diagnosis to have a trauma informed care plan. She said the SS was responsible for completing the trauma assessment. She said the current SS was not employed at the facility when Resident #6's trauma assessment was completed. She said the previous SS should have notified the MDS Coordinator and DON of Resident #6's trauma assessment results. She said Resident #6's PTSD diagnosis should have been care planned so everybody knew her triggers and to avoid those triggers. She said if Resident #6 experienced her triggers, it could have been horrific. She said Resident #6 could have experienced emotional distress or behaviors. She said the MDS Coordinator was responsible for overseeing this process by doing audits. Record review of a facility's Trauma Informed Care policy revised on 3/2019 indicated, .to guide staff in appropriate and compassionate care specific to individuals who have experienced trauma.As part of the comprehensive assessment, identify history of trauma or interpersonal violence when possible. Identifying past trauma or adverse experiences may involve record review or the use of screening tools. Record review of a facility's Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered policy revised on 12/2016 indicated, .a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial and functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident. describe the services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being. incorporate identified problem areas.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services including procedures that assure the accurate administering of all drugs and biologicals, to meet the needs of 2 of 16 residents (Resident #31 and Resident #26) reviewed for pharmacy services. The facility failed to ensure Resident #31's Claritin (Loratadine) order had a dosage for administration. The facility failed to ensure RN B documented the medication order change for Resident #26's Folic Acid 400 MCG to 1000MCG on 8/12/25, which resulted in RN B documenting administration of the wrong medication dosage on the MAR. These failures could place residents at risk for inaccurate drug administration.Findings included: 1. Record review of Resident #31's face sheet dated 8/13/25 indicated Resident #31 was an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]. Resident #31 had diagnoses including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (is a lung condition that obstructs airflow, making it difficult to breathe) and dyspnea (shortness of breath). Record review of Resident #31's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #31 was understood and had the ability to understand others. Resident #31 had a BIMS score of 12 which indicated moderate cognitive impairment. Record review of Resident #31's care plan dated 6/28/25 indicated Resident #31 had oxygen therapy. Intervention included give medications as ordered by physician. Record review of Resident #31's consolidated physician order dated 8/13/25 indicated Claritin Oral Tablet (Loratadine), give 1 tablet by mouth, one time a day for allergies. Ordered date 5/27/25. Resident #31's physician order did not reflect a MG dose of Claritin to administer. Record review of Resident #31's MAR dated 8/1/25-8/31/25 indicated Claritin Oral Tablet (Loratadine; is an antihistamine that prevents and treats allergy symptoms), give 1 tablet by mouth, one time a day for allergies. Resident #31 received 12 out of 13 scheduled doses. 2. Record review of Resident #26's face sheet dated 8/13/25 indicated Resident #26 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #26 had diagnoses including nutritional anemia (is a condition where a lack of essential nutrients in the diet leads to a decrease in red blood cell production or function, causing a deficiency in oxygen delivery to the body) and vitamin deficiency (occurs when the body doesn't receive enough of a vital vitamin). Record review of Resident #26's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #26 was understood and had the ability to understand others. Resident #26 had a BIMS score of 15 which indicated intact cognition. Record review of Resident #26's care plan dated 8/14/23 indicated Resident #26 had a vitamin/mineral deficiency. Intervention included administer medications as ordered by MD. Record review of Resident #26's consolidated physician order dated 8/13/25 indicated Folic Acid Oral Tablet (is used for preventing and treating low blood levels of folate (folate deficiency)), give 1000 mcg by mouth one time a day for supplement. Ordered date 8/12/25. Start dated 8/13/25. Record review of Resident #26's MAR dated 8/1/25-8/31/25 indicated:*Folic Acid Tablet 400 MCG, give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day related to osteoarthritis (is a common joint disease where cartilage breaks down, leading to pain, stiffness, and swelling in affected joints). Discontinued 8/12/25 at 11:42 a.m. The MAR indicated RN B administered 400 MCG on 8/12/25 at 7:00 a.m. * Folic Acid Oral Tablet, give 1000 mcg by mouth one time a day for supplement. The MAR indicated the first dose was administered on 8/13/25 at 8:00 a.m. During an observation on 8/12/25 at 8:01 a.m., RN B showed a 1000 MCG bottle of Folic Acid and stated she had received a new order from the physician but had not changed the order yet. RN B administered 1 tablet of Folic Acid 1000 MCG to Resident #26. On 8/13/25 at 12:39 p.m., attempted to contact RN B by phone. A voicemail was left for a return call. During an interview on 8/13/25 at 2:00 p.m., the ADON A said the physician order needed the resident and medication name, route, dose, and frequency. She said a medication should not be given without a complete order. She said the wrong dose could be given. She said the resident could be under and over dosed. She said everybody who looked at Resident #31's Claritin order was responsible for getting the dose to administer. She said before administering a medication, the nurses should follow the 6 rights of medication administration. She said the DON, ADON, and Pharmacy consultant were responsible for ensuring the nurses inputted complete physician's orders. She said they monitored this process by doing chart audits. She said RN B should have administered Resident #26's current medication order until the new physician order had been placed in the charting system. She said RN B's documentation of Resident #26 MAR was inaccurate. She said RN B should have documented the dose she administered. She said the resident needed an accurate record of administration. She said when the documentation was inaccurate, the MD would not be able to accurately assess the resident's needs. She said the ADON and DON were responsible for ensuring the nurse had accurate documentation. She said they monitored this process by daily chart audits and reviewing the 24-hour report for new orders. During an interview on 8/13/25 at 3:04 p.m., the DON said she expected Resident #31's Claritin order to have a dose. She said a dose on the physician order ensured the resident received the accurate amount of medication for the issue. She said the nurse who received Resident #31's order for Claritin was responsible for ensuring it included a dose amount. She said Resident #31 would not have too many negative effects from receiving Claritin without a dose since it was an allergy medication. She said Resident #31 could have experienced negative effects from receive other type of medications without a dose amount. She said she was responsible for ensuring the nurses received and placed accurate physician orders in the resident's chart. She said she did this process by reviewing orders during morning stand up meetings. She said she expected RN B to discontinue Resident #26's 400 MCG order and place the new order for the 1000 MCG in the system. She said RN B should then have documented on the 1000 MCG Folic Acid order. She said documenting on the 400 MCG order but giving 1000 MCG was not accurate documentation and could be considered a medication error. She said an accurate medication administration record was important so everyone knew what the resident was taking. She said it was important to know which dose was taken to monitor for any adverse reactions and which dose was received for the resident's medical record. She said the ADON and DON were responsible for ensuring the nurse had accurate documentation. On 8/13/25 at 4:53 p.m., attempted to contact the CP P by phone. I was unable to leave a message because the mailbox was full. During an interview on 8/13/25 at 5:02 p.m., the ADM said she expected the nursing staff to document the medication they administered. She said it was important to have accurate documentation so if any adverse reaction occurred, they would know where to start. She said it would be detrimental to the resident if they received too much or not enough of a medication. She said the nurse who received the physician order should have ensured the MG dose was specified. She said also any nurse that noticed the medication did not have a MG dose specified, should have notified someone for clarification. She said Claritin only came in a certain MG dose, but some medications came in different MG doses. She said it was important to know the exact amount the physician wanted administered. She said the ADON and DON should ensure the nurses were documenting accurately and receiving complete orders. She said they should be monitoring this process by doing chart/order audits. During an interview on 8/15/25 at 1:10 p.m., RN B said the DON preferred to do the initial or admission physician orders. She said the floor nurse could also put in physician orders. She said the physician orders should have the MG dose to make sure the right dose was administered. She said the 5 rights of drug administration should be followed. She said Resident #31's Claritin order should have the MG dose because the facility may not be given what the physician wanted and it was important to keep the residents safe. She said she should have discontinued Resident #26's Folic Acid 400 MCG, inputted the 1000 MCG order, then administered and documented on the 1000 MCG order. She said it was important for the documentation to be correct to reflect and match the new physician order. She said when the documentation did not reflect the physician order, it could be considered a medication error. Record review of a facility's Administering Medications policy dated 4/2019 indicated, .the individual administering the medication checks the label THREE (3) times to verify the right resident, right medication, right dosage, right time and right method (route) of administration before giving the medication. The individual administering the medication initials the resident's MAR on the appropriate line after giving each medication.As required or indicated for a medication, the individual administering the medication records in the resident's medical record. The date and time the medication was administered. The dosage.

She said the MRR form was sent to the physician or the information was relayed by text. She said the DON was responsible for ensuring the MD responded to the MRR appropriately. She said but whoever received the MRRs that month would be responsible for them. She said the DON and ADON should have made sure MD O addressed both parts of the request to extend Resident #35's Lorazepam prn order. She said the prn medication needed to be 14 days or rationale provided with a specific date to prevent adverse reactions and over medication. She said the DON and ADON oversaw the MRR process. She said the CP P also reviewed the MRR responses from the physicians. During an interview on 8/13/25 at 3:04 p.m., the DON said she was responsible for the resident's MRRs. She said she felt like end of life was the specified duration for Resident #35's MRR form. She said the 14 days and specified duration was to monitor for the continued need or use of the prn medication. She said the CP P reviewed the MRRs forms the next month for compliance. She said CP P did not mention MD O response not addressing the Resident #35's MRR request. On 8/13/25 at 4:53 p.m., attempted to contact the CP P by phone. The Surveyor was unable to leave a message because the mailbox was full.

She said Resident #4, Resident #19 and Resident #33 were coded on the MDS for limited range of motion. The MDS coordinator said some residents had limited range of motion without having contractures. She said if the limited range of motion did not affect their functional ability or there was no contracture diagnosis then she would not care plan the limited range of motion. The MDS coordinator said until recently she worked from home and could not assess residents limited range of motion. She said she did get a list of residents today (04/19/23) of all the residents with contractures and was in the process of making care plan problems. The MDS coordinator said she assessed Resident #4, Resident #19, and Resident #33 and they had limited range of motion with contractures which should have been care planned. She said the Rehab Director had also recently started so they had not developed a process to communicate with each other about resident with contractures and intervention in place by therapy that needed to be added to the care plan such as Resident #4's interventions. The MDS coordinator said the facility was going to start having daily skilled nursing meetings regarding residents with limited range of motion/contractures, therapy, and restorative care instead of weekly to help ensure residents care areas were properly care planned. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 3:51 p.m., the DON said residents with limited range of motion and/or contractures such as Resident #19 and Resident #33 should have had a care plan developed. She said if the limited range of motion was coded on the MDS, then it should have been care planned. The DON said the MDS coordinator, nurses, and interdisciplinary team were responsible for the development of comprehensive care plans. She said care plans were important to inform staff of what the resident needed, and the care plan was able to be viewed by CNAs in the computer system. The DON said CNAs were responsible for charting meal intakes. She said nurses were responsible to ensure it was happening. The DON said it helped determine weight loss causes. She said it was important to ensure the residents received adequate nutrition. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 4:46 p.m., the Administrator said in daily morning meetings they discussed issues and decided what should be care planned. He said care plans let all staff know the plan of care for the residents. The ADM said it was a type of communication between staff members, residents, and resident representatives. He said the MDS coordinator and nurses were responsible for the development of care plans. The ADM said the corporate MDS coordinator should be overseeing the process. <BR/>Record review of the facility's Contracture list dated 04/17/23 revealed the list included Resident #4, Resident #19, and Resident #33. <BR/>Record review of a facility Resident Mobility and Range of Motion policy dated 07/17 revealed .the care plan will be developed by the interdisciplinary team based on the comprehensive assessment, and will be revised as needed .the care plan will include specific intervention s, exercises and therapies to maintain, prevent avoidable decline in, and/or improve mobility and range of motion .the care plan will include the type, frequency, and duration of intervention, as well as measurable goals and objectives <BR/>Record review of a facility Food and Nutrition Services policy dated 10/17 revealed .nursing personnel, with the assistance of the food and nutrition services staff, will evaluate (and document as indicated) food and fluid intake of residents with, or at risk for, significant nutritional problems .variations from usual eating or intake pattern will be recorded in the resident's medical record and brought to the nurse attention .<BR/> <BR/>

She stated it was up to the staff on the unit to provide the other activities because she was responsible for the activities on the outside of the unit. She stated she had 2-3 residents on the unit that she did one on one activities with because they did not always come out of their rooms, and she did those 3 days per week. She stated it would be helpful to have an assistant that could provide more structured activities to the residents on the unit, so they did not just sit around all day.<BR/>During an interview on 06/05/24 at 11:45 a.m., CNA H said she had received dementia care training through a company the facility used. She said activities were done with the resident at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. She said the unit had baby dolls and stuffed animals, but a resident was hoarding them all in her room.

She said the facility did have some activities available for the residents, but she understood there needed to be more structured activities. She said trying to find activities that all the residents would be interested in, it be safe, and not be an infection control risk could be challenging. She said not providing residents individualized, structured activities had the potential for increased behaviors and falls.<BR/>During an interview on 06/05/24 at 2:45 p.m., the ADM said it was the IDT responsibility to provide the residents on secured unit dementia centered care. She said the facility should be using the resident's care plan to find activities to meet their needs. She said the activities should be at their level and staff assisting with activities. She said the secured unit needed a timeline or structured activities, things to keep them busy. She said when residents were not provided activities throughout the day, they could become agitated, altercations, and falls happened. <BR/>Record review of a facility's Dementia policy dated 11/2018 indicated .direct care staff will support the resident in initiating and completing activities .therapeutic and recreational activities will be supervised and supported throughout the day as needed .

LVN D said she was off the secured unit and came back and CNA A was at the nursing station near Resident #50's room. She said she heard noises and walked towards Resident #50's room. She said she noticed Resident #50 on the floor with no floor mats underneath her. She said the incident made her upset.

She said Resident #31's physical and mental condition was labile. She said Resident #31 was a one-person assist transfer. She said gait belts were supposed to use for transfers. She said she did not think CNA H used a gait belt during Resident #31's transfer on 04/07/24. She said CNA H's hands would have been on the gait belt, not Resident #31's arms, for him to pull away. She said use of gait belts on the secured unit was challenging sometimes because the residents were impatient and did not follow directions. She said improper transferring could cause skin tears and falls. She said the secured unit should always have supervision. She said a CNA or LVN should be on the unit. She said the residents on the secured unit were unpredictable and so many things could happen if they are left unsupervised. She said Resident #30 should not be ambulating without supervision.

She said she left Resident #50's room to go get a brief to change her. She said as she was entering the room, Resident #50 was lifting her knees in the air and rolled out of the bed. She said she should not have left the room without putting the floor mats down. She said Resident #50 had been a one-person transfer but should have been a two-person person.

She said staff hands should be on the gait belt during the transfer not the resident's arms. She said transferring without a gait belt or improperly potential could cause falls and injuries. She said the secured unit should always have supervision. She said CNA A and LVN D, who were assigned to the unit, had not returned her phone call to question them about the secured unit residents being unsupervised. She said altercations and falls could happen if secured resident were unsupervised. She said Resident #30 could stand up and walk short distances. She said Resident #30's knees did give out on her without warning. She said Resident #30 should be using her wheelchair primarily for getting around.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to implement an antibiotic stewardship program that included antibiotic use protocols for 6 of 6 months (January 2024 through June 2024) reviewed for Infection Control Tracking and Trending. <BR/>-The facility did not implement the antibiotic orders protocol in their Antibiotic Stewardship policy. <BR/>-The facility had missing information on the Tracking and Trending Logs as to the outcome of the antibiotic use (if the infections were resolved or not).<BR/>-The facility did not implement the 72-hour Antibiotic Time Out protocol in their Antibiotic Stewardship program.<BR/>These failures could place residents with infections at risk for unnecessary antibiotic use and increased infections that are resistant to antibiotics. <BR/>Findings included:<BR/>Record review of the Antibiotic Stewardship Policy revised 02/2022 indicated Goals: Prescribers will document a dose, duration, and indication for all antibiotic usage. Policy: Antibiotic Stewardship Program (ASP) Core Elements: 5. Tracking: The Facility monitors at least one process measure of antibiotic use and at least one outcome or training in antibiotic use: a. Process Measure: Medical records are reviewed when a new antibiotic is started to determine whether the clinical assessment, prescription documentation, and antibiotic selection were in accordance with facility antibiotic use policies and practices Antibiotic Stewardship Protocols: 4. Antibiotic Time Out: d. Infection Preventionist or other designated member of the Facility nursing staff notifies the ordering provider of the 3-day expiration and requirement for Antibiotic Time Out: 1. Provider may consult Infectious Disease provider and eliminate need for the Time Out Process. ii. Provider may complete Antibiotic Time Out telephonically with member of the Antibiotic Stewardship Team or clinical designee. iii. If provider fails to complete the Antibiotic Time Out on or prior to Day 3 of treatment, the Antibiotic Stewardship Team in collaboration with Pharmacy Consultant and Medical Director, may complete the process and determine the appropriateness and effectiveness of continuing or discontinuing the medication. Any actions require a valid and complete physician's order.<BR/>Record review of the Infection Control Tracking and Trending Log for January 2024 to June 2024 indicated the following: <BR/>-January 2024-<BR/>1. Log had no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of infection resolution.<BR/>2. A physician order for antibiotics prior to culture on 01/12/2024.<BR/>-February 2024<BR/>1.Log had no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of infection resolution.<BR/>2. Log has no indication of cultures for infections.<BR/>-March 2024-<BR/>1. There was no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of infection resolution.<BR/>2. Logs were missing information about antibiotic indications (signs and symptoms of infection) and cultures.<BR/>-April 2024-<BR/>1. There was no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of infection resolution.<BR/>2. Logs were missing information about antibiotic indications and cultures.<BR/>-May 2024-<BR/>1. There was no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of infection resolution.<BR/>2. Logs were missing information about antibiotic indications and cultures.<BR/>-June 2024-<BR/>1. There was no indication of 72-hour time out review and no indication of if infections were resolved.<BR/>During an interview on 06/05/2024 at 10:20 a.m., the IP stated she would bring the tracking and trending for infection control, but it was not completed, and it was behind several months. The IP stated she had been working the floor as a CNA on the secured unit at night and had not had time to keep it up. The IP stated it was the duty of IP to keep up with the tracking and trending on a weekly basis to ensure it was done. The IP stated it was important for antibiotic usage to be kept at a minimum to decrease resistance. The IP stated she would add the 72-hour antibiotic time out to the tracking log and she would continue to encourage the MD to follow the antibiotic stewardship guidelines of culturing and not prescribing broad spectrum antibiotics prior to the culture if symptoms are mild. The IP stated overuse of antibiotics can cause superbugs and resistant strands of common bacteria which are harder for the elderly population to fight off and could lead to illness and even death.<BR/>During an interview on 06/05/2024 at 2:30 p.m., the ADM stated it was the nursing department's job to ensure all the antibiotic stewardship program was being conducted correctly. The ADM stated the IP had been stretched thin by having to work the floor several shifts over the last several months, but it was ultimately their responsibility to ensure it was complete and correct. The ADM stated not following the facility policy and state guidelines for antibiotic stewardship could lead to more serious infections for the residents that are already susceptible to infections.<BR/>Record review of the CDC's Core Elements of Antibiotic Stewardship for Nursing Homes Appendix A: Policy and practice actions to improve antibiotic use accessed on 06/06/2024 at https://www.cdc.gov/antibiotic-use/core-elements/nursing-homes.html.<BR/> Antibiotic prescribing and use policies: Documentation of dose, duration, and indication. Specify the dose (including route), duration (i.e., start date, end date, and planned days of therapy), and indication, which includes both rationale (i.e., prophylaxis vs. therapeutic) and treatment site (i.e., urinary tract, respiratory tract), for every course of antibiotics. This bundle of antibiotic prescribing elements should be documented for both nursing home-initiated antibiotic courses as well as courses continued in the nursing home which were initiated by a transferring facility or emergency department. Documenting and making this information accessible (e.g., verifying indication and planned duration is documented on transfer paperwork) helps ensure that antibiotics can be modified as needed based on additional laboratory and clinical data and/or discontinued in a timely manner Broad interventions to improve antibiotic use: Perform antibiotic time outs. Antibiotics are often started empirically in nursing home residents when the resident has a change in physical or mental status while diagnostic information is being obtained. However, providers often do not revisit the selection of the antibiotic after more clinical and laboratory data (including culture results) become available. An antibiotic time out is a formal process designed to prompt a reassessment of the ongoing need for and choice of an antibiotic once more data is available including: the clinical response, additional diagnostic information, and alternate explanations for the status change which prompted the antibiotic start. Nursing homes should have a process in place for a review of antibiotics by the clinical team two to three days after antibiotics are initiated to answer these key questions: o Does this resident have a bacterial infection that will respond to antibiotics? o If so, is the resident on the most appropriate antibiotic(s), dose,<BR/>and route of administration? o Can the spectrum of the antibiotic be narrowed or the duration of therapy shortened (i.e., de-escalation)? o Would the resident benefit from additional infectious disease/ antibiotic expertise to ensure optimal treatment of the suspected or confirmed infection?

The DON said the MDS coordinator, nurses, and interdisciplinary team were responsible for the development of comprehensive care plans. She said care plans were important to inform staff of what the resident needed, and the care plan was able to be viewed by CNAs in the computer system. The DON said CNAs were responsible for charting meal intakes. She said nurses were responsible to ensure it was happening. The DON said it helped determine weight loss causes. She said it was important to ensure the residents received adequate nutrition. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 4:46 p.m., the Administrator said in daily morning meetings they discussed issues and decided what should be care planned. He said care plans let all staff know the plan of care for the residents. The ADM said it was a type of communication between staff members, residents, and resident representatives.

The MDS revealed Resident #33 BIMS was unable to be completed due to being rarely/never understood. The MDS revealed Resident #33 had short-and-long term memory loss and severely impaired cognitive skills for daily decision making. The MDS revealed Resident #33 was totally dependent for all ADLs. The MDS revealed Resident #33 had functional limitation in range of motion (interfered with daily functions or placed residents at risk for injury) to her upper extremity on one side and lower extremities on both sides. <BR/>Record review of care plan dated 04/05/23 revealed Resident #33 had ADL self-care performance deficit related to dementia and Parkinson's disease. Interventions included assist of one staff member for locomotion while in Geri chair and assist of one staff member to feed her each meal, bedfast all or most of the time, and not ambulatory. The care plan did not reveal Resident #33 had functional limitation in range of motion (interfered with daily functions or placed residents at risk for injury) to her upper extremity on one side and lower extremities on both sides.<BR/>Record review of Resident #33's consolidated physician orders dated 04/18/23 did not reveal limited range of motion/contracture management orders.<BR/>During an observation on 04/17/23 at 11:39 a.m., revealed Resident #33 was sitting in a Geri chair with a positioning wedge on her right side. Resident #33 lower half of her body was covered with a blanket, so the Surveyor was unable to visualize limited range of motion or contractures, and tremors were noted. <BR/>During an observation on 04/18/23 at 09:58 a.m., revealed Resident #33 was asleep, sitting in a Geri chair with her right arm hanging outside of the chair. Resident #33 lower half of her body was covered with a blanket, so the Surveyor was unable to visualize limited range of motion or contractures, and tremors were noted.<BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 11:52 a.m., the DOR said she had been in this position since 03/15/23 but had worked for the facility in another capacity. She said the facility ran an activities of daily living significant change report and if a resident had a decline, but therapy was not recommended then the ADON decided which resident received restorative care. The DOR said Resident #4 received OT and ST six months at a time for maintenance, not so much for improvement. She said according to the therapy notes, Resident #4's goals were to tolerate passive ROM to the upper extremities, wear a left-hand roll for up to 5 hours, sit up in the Geri chair for 4 hours, and complete bed mobility with moderate assistance. She said nurses were responsible for doing those tasks, and therapy was responsible for increasing the tolerance time. The DOR said she did not know if or where staff documented implementing those goals and how long he tolerated the tasks. The DOR said when she looked in the system, Resident #33 had never been evaluated or treated by therapy and was not on restorative services. She said Resident #19 had been on OT from January-February 2023 but did not show much improvement from therapy. She said Resident #19 had been on restorative services but did not know if she currently was. The DOR said Resident #19's OT discharge summary did not mention hand rolls/splints, but nurses were responsible for placing those on the resident. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 1:49 p.m., LVN A said Resident #4 did have contractures, but she could not recall how the facility managed them. She said sometimes the treatment administration record would have an order for splint devices but Resident #4 did not have an order for splints. LVN A said she had not put splints in Resident #4 left hand. She said she did not know if CNAs or restorative did passive ROM with him. She said Resident #33 did have limited ROM but did not recall seeing her receive therapy or restorative services. LVN A said Resident #19 had carrot splints in her room and after she reviewed the chart, Resident #19 did not have an order for them. She said she did not know who was on the restorative or contracture list. LVN A said providing services to residents with limited range of motion or contractures was important to maintain their quality of living, movement, independence, ADL assistance level, and circulation. She said it could affect their mentality and quality of life. LVN A said if there was an order for placement of contracture tools, then it was the nurse's responsibility to do it. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 3:51 p.m., the DON said the facility did not have a process in place to ensure residents with limited range of motion or contractures received services to prevent further restriction. She said now the CNAs would be responsible for keeping resident's hands clean and placement of hand rolls. The DON said before the survey, there were no orders for CNAs to follow and they were currently putting those orders in the system. She said CNAs probably were not doing those interventions because they did not know what to do without an order. The DON said even if a resident was on restorative services, the CNAs were responsible for contracture orders. She said the facility was going to add a place in the computer system to chart that the contracture orders were getting done by the CNAs. The DON said management would do follow throughs to make sure the hand cleaning and hand roll placement was getting done. She said nurses would be primarily responsible overseeing the CNAs. The DON said it was important to provide contracture management to ensure high function mobility. She said not managing contractures or limited range of motion increased contractures and decreased mobility. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 4:46 p.m., the Administrator said he had to refer to the nursing management regarding contractures and limited range of motion. <BR/>Record review of the facility's Contracture list dated 04/17/23 revealed the list included Resident #4, Resident #19, and Resident #33.<BR/>Record review of a facility Resident Mobility and Range of Motion policy dated 07/17 revealed .residents will not experience an avoidable reduction in range of motion .residents with limited range of motion will receive treatment and service to increase and/or prevent a further decrease in ROM .residents with limited mobility will receive appropriate services, equipment and assistance to maintain or improve mobility unless reduction in mobility is unavoidable .the care plan will be developed by the interdisciplinary team based on the comprehensive assessment, and will be revised as needed .the care plan will include specific interventions, exercises and therapies to maintain, prevent avoidable decline in, and/or improve mobility and range of motion .intervention may include therapies, the provision of necessary equipment, and/or exercises .documentation of the resident's progress toward the goals and objectives will include attempts to address any changes or decline in the resident's condition or needs

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure, based on the comprehensive assessment of a resident, residents who had not used psychotropic drugs were not given these drugs unless the medication was necessary to treat a specific condition as diagnosed and documented in the clinical record for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #204) reviewed for psychotropic medications. <BR/>The facility failed to ensure Resident #204 had an appropriate diagnosis for usage of Olanzapine (antipsychotic). <BR/>This failure could place residents at risk of being over-medicated or experience undesirable side effects.<BR/>Findings included:<BR/>Record review of a face sheet dated 04/18/23 revealed Resident #240 was [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including major depressive disorder (a mood disorder that interferes with daily life), anxiety (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), hallucinations (a false perception of objects or events involving your senses: sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste).<BR/>Record review of Resident #204's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed she was understood and understood others. The MDS revealed Resident #204 had a BIMS of 03 which indicated severely impaired cognition and required extensive assistance for bed mobility, transfer, dressing, toilet use, and personal hygiene. The MDS revealed Resident #204 did not have an acute change in mental status from the resident's baseline. The MDS revealed Resident #204 did not show signs of inattention (distraction), disorganized thinking (speak very quickly and stumble over your words so that other people may find it difficult to understand what you're saying) and altered level of consciousness (a state of reduced alertness or inability to arouse due to low awareness of the environment). The MDS revealed Resident #204 did not have hallucination or delusions. The MDS revealed Resident #204 did not have physical, verbal, or other behavioral symptoms. The MDS revealed Resident #204 received an antipsychotic, antianxiety, and antidepressant in last 7 days. <BR/>Record review of Resident #204's care plan dated 03/09/22 revealed the resident had a diagnosis of hallucinations unspecified and currently took Olanzapine. Interventions reflected to monitor/record/report new onset signs/symptoms of delirium: changes in behavior, altered mental status, wide variation in cognitive function throughout day, communication decline, disorientation, lethargy, restlessness, and agitation. Altered sleep cycle, dehydration, infection, delusion, and hallucination. Provide medications to alleviate agitation as ordered by MD. <BR/>Record review of Resident #204's consolidated physician's order dated 04/18/23 revealed Olanzapine tablet 5MG, 1 tablet by mouth at bedtime related to hallucinations, unspecified dated 01/10/23. <BR/>Record review of Resident #204's Consent for Antipsychotic or Neuroleptic Medication Treatment dated 02/02/22 revealed .[MD E] .Internal Medicine Specialty .treating this individual since 02/02/22 .has following psychiatric condition and/or maladaptive behavior: Hallucinations .diagnosis is based on the following dominant characteristics exhibited: hallucinations .course of therapy with antipsychotic medication: Olanzapine 5MG tablet by mouth at night .need for, and benefit of, the proposed treatment: decreased hallucinations .<BR/>Record review of Resident #204's Consent for Psychoactive Medication Therapy dated 02/02/22 revealed . Olanzapine .specific condition to be treated .other: hallucinations .antipsychotic .prolonged treatment .<BR/>Record review of a pharmacy recommendation by the consultant pharmacist, dated 10/01/22-10/31/22 revealed Resident #204 was currently receiving Olanzapine tablet 5MG, 1 tablet by mouth at bedtime related to hallucinations, Unspecified. Diagnosis was needed to support therapy. Please assist. No follow-through noted after recommendation. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 2:41 p.m., LVN A said she did not know if hallucination was an appropriate diagnosis for Olanzapine. LVN A said Resident #204 did not hallucinate, that she could recall. She said a diagnosis needed to match the correct medication. LVN A said if she received a medication with an incorrect diagnosis, she notified the ADON or MDS coordinator. She said having the correct diagnosis for use of a medication was important to know why you are giving the medication. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 2:58 p.m., the MDS coordinator said a diagnosis of hallucinations only was not an appropriate diagnosis for usage of Olanzapine. She said she got diagnoses from hospital records and other facility paperwork to add to the resident's record. The MDS coordinator said the DON added the diagnosis of hallucinations on Resident #204 when she admitted on [DATE]. She said the ADON, and DON reviewed admission orders to ensure appropriate diagnoses with medications. The MDS coordinator said she only assigned a primary diagnosis on admission and hallucination was not Resident #204's primary diagnosis. <BR/>During an interview on 04/19/23 at 3:51 p.m., the DON said diagnosis of hallucinations only, was not appropriate to prescribe Olanzapine. She said she added hallucination as an indication for use for Olanzapine due to it being the only diagnosis on admission paperwork. The DON said she believed Resident #204 was on Olanzapine prior to admission to the facility. The DON said Resident #204 hallucinated. She said she knew nursing staff were not charting when Resident #204 hallucinated. The DON said Resident #204 was not on psychiatric services and her primary doctor managed the antipsychotic. She said she would talk to family and resident about being seen by psych services. The DON said it was important to have an appropriate diagnosis to make sure they treated the indication of use or reason for the medication. She said she, the DON, was responsible for overseeing this process. <BR/>Record review of a facility Antipsychotic Medication Use policy dated 12/16 revealed .resident will only receive antipsychotic medications when necessary to treat specific conditions for which they are indicated and effective .diagnosis of a specific condition for which antipsychotic medications are necessary to treat will be based on a comprehensive assessment of the resident .antipsychotic medication shall generally be used for the following conditions .Schizophrenia .Schizo-Affective disorder .Schizophreniform disorder .Delusional disorder .Mood disorder .Psychosis in the absence of dementia .medical illness with psychotic symptoms and/or treatment-related psychosis or mania .Tourette's Disorder .Huntington Disease .Hiccups .Nausea and vomiting associated with cancer or chemotherapy .diagnoses alone do not warrant the use of antipsychotic medication

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents had the right to a clean, comfortable, and homelike environment, which included but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safety, for 4 of 14 residents (Resident #29, Resident #28, Resident #33, and Resident #4) reviewed for a homelike environment.<BR/>1.
