- No harm, potential for more than minimal, widespreadF812Feb 20, 2026
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to properly wash dishware when the water temperature was lower than manufacturer specifications. This deficient practice has the potential to result in harmful bacterial growth that could lead to foodborne illness (a disease caused by consuming food or drinks that are contaminated by germs or toxins) in all medically compromised residents.Findings: During an observation on 2/18/2026 at 8:51 AM, Dietary Aide 1 (DA1) was operating a low-temperature dishwasher (commercial ware washers that clean at 120 -140 degrees Fahrenheit (F) water temperature and rely on chemical sanitizers) to wash plate ware from breakfast service where the water reservoir thermometer read 98 F.

- No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF726Feb 20, 2026
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure annual skills competency assessments for four of seven sampled nursing staff (Licensed Vocational Nurse [LVN] 2, Certified Nursing Assistant [CNA] 2, CNA 3, and CNA 4) as required in their Facility Assessment (a yearly review that identifies the staff, equipment, and resources the facility needs to safely and effectively care of its residents). This deficient practice had the potential to place residents at risk for unmet care needs and care errors related to activities of daily living (ADLs- routine tasks/activities such as bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves), hand hygiene (the practice of cleaning one's hands-either by washing with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand… […]

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to assess, monitor, intervene and evaluate care of two out of three sampled residents (Residents 28 and 31) by failing to: 1.Ensure Resident 28's wound on the left eye was identified and assessed by facility to ensure resident received timely and appropriate care for behavior of self -inflicted wound and scratching under the left eye. 2. Ensure Resident 31's daily episodes of emesis (vomit) where documented, assessed for the root cause, monitored and reported to the primary physician. As a result of these deficient practices, Resident 28 could develop worsened skin and wound infection and severe pain. […]
- No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF814Jan 25, 2024
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of one outdoor refuse container (a waste container that a person controls that includes dumpsters, trash cans, garbage pails, and plastic trash bags) was closed with a tight-fitting lid and kept covered in accordance with the facility's policy and procedure titled, Food Related Garbage and Refuse Disposal. This failure had the potential to attract insects and harborage of pests in the refuse area that can cause a wide spread of diseases and affect the residents, staff, and visitors. Findings: During an observation on January 23, 2024, at 9:00 a.m., in the presence of the Dietary Supervisor (DS) at the facilities parking lot, the outdoor refuse container was observed with no tight fitting/secured lid. […]
- No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF880Jan 25, 2024
Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed implement the facility's policy and procedure on infection control to prevent spread of infection by failing to: 1. Ensure the facility monitors the water system for Legionella (bacteria most found in water, including groundwater, fresh and [NAME] surface waters that causes severe pneumonia [severe infection in the lungs]. Legionella is transmitted through breathing in Legionella-contaminated, aerosolized [the form of a fine spray] water and is also possible from breathing in Legionella contaminated soil or while drinking water) as evidenced by not conducting water testing for Legionella. 2.
