In the surveyor’s words

From the most serious findings on record at Castle Manor Nursing & Rehabilitation Center, in the surveyor’s own words.

  • Actual harm, isolatedF684Mar 5, 2025

    Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure licensed nurse (LN) 1 performed a complete assessment (a process that evaluates a resident's health by gathering and analyzing information) and notified the physician for one of three residents (Resident 1), when Resident 1 experienced a sudden decrease in oxygen level and blood pressure. As a result, Resident 1 was found with cold, pale skin and without pulse approximately four hours after the decreased blood pressure (Measurement of the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps) and oxygen level was first identified.

  • No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF578Mar 27, 2025

    Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure four of twenty-one sampled residents (12,17, 231, 233) had Advanced Directives or documented discussions with Social Services Director (SSD) about Advance Directives. This failure had the potential to prevent residents from making their own decisions in the case of emergency treatment. Cross Reference: F867 Findings: 1. Review of Resident 12's (R12) Admission Record dated 3/26/25 indicated R12 was admitted for diagnoses which included: Acute Respiratory Failure(a life-threatening condition where the lungs are unable to adequately exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide), Asthma(a chronic lung disease), Congestive Heart Failure(a chronic condition where the heart muscle is weakened and cannot pump blood… […]

  • No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF867Mar 27, 2025

    Based on interview and record review the facility's Quality Assessment and Assurance Committee (QAA-facility group that monitors concerning trends in a facility) failed to identify and include in the facility's Quality Assurance Performance Improvement plan (QAPI-plan developed by QAA to help improve conditions in the facility), trends found by surveyors during the recertification survey concerning Advance Directives (a legal document that allows you to make decisions about your future medical care). This failure had the potential for the facility to overlook trends in resident care that might have affected residents' dignity and/or health. […]
