Findings
Based on record review and interview, the residence failed to evaluate a resident prior to re-admission to the residence after transfer to another health care entity, affecting one of seven sample residents whose records were reviewed (#3), and Former Resident #11.

A progress note, dated 10/28/25 read in part: Former Resident #11 was returning to the residence on 10/29/25 from an inpatient hospital stay.

ObservationsAn environmental tour on 1/27/26 at 10:30 a.m., revealed Resident #5's bathroom toilet had feces and urine in an unflushed toilet, a trash can without a trash bag with soiled paper products, and multiple dried, brown mounds varying in size from a dime to a quarter on the bathroom and bedroom floors. The counter of Resident #5's bathroom sink had a white film covering the entire surface of the counter and white streaks running down the cupboard doors. There were brown splatters and one brown streak in the bathroom sink. Resident #6's bed was unmade, and the sheets had brown, dried streaks in three areas near the top of the bed. On the floor were two separate dried, brown mounds, one half inch by a ¼ inch in size. In Resident #7's bathroom, there was an adult incontinence brief in the toilet that had absorbed all the water from the toilet bowl. Two chairs in the common area, where approximately 7 residents were sitting, had brown stains on one of the seats and brown streaks running down the side of another that an unknown resident was sitting in. In the same room on the wall where a television was mounted, were brown dried spots near the baseboards. A second common area not being used by residents at the time of the environmental tour had a beige couch with brown smears on the outer side arm. The door to the communal dining room had brown spatters covering the bottom half of one side of the door. A second environmental tour was conducted on 1/27/26 at 1:00 p.m., with Staff #6 and Staff #3. Resident #5's toilet had been flushed and the trash bin emptied. Resident #5's floor continued to have multiple dried, brown mounds varying in size from a dime to a quarter and the sink, to include cupboard doors, had a white film. The floor in Resident #6's room continued to have dried brown mounds on the floor and the incontinent brief remained in Resident #7's toilet. The two chairs in the common area, where residents still sat, had brown stains and streaks, as did the wall where the television was mounted, the door to the communal dining room had dried brown spots and the beige couch had brown spots. 2. Record reviewResident #5 was admitted to the residence on 1/1/2020, with a diagnosis that includes dementia. The most recent care plan, dated 10/21/24, read in part, Resident #5's room needed to be checked at least twice per shift; the resident tends to smear feces in the bathroom sink, toilet, and bedding. 3. InterviewsOn 1/27/26 at 10:30 a.m., Staff #6 said she had not personally checked any resident rooms, including the room of Resident #5. Staff #6 said care staff were responsible for cleaning dirty surfaces, making beds, and changing linens if they were dirty. Staff #6 said housekeeping staff cleaned the floors in resident rooms and common areas, and the furniture in the common areas. On 1/27/26 at 10:40 a.m., Staff #3 said Resident #5 was up and dressed before she arrived to work at 6:00 a.m., and she [Staff #3] had not checked her [Resident #5] room. Staff #3 said care staff were responsible for cleaning resident rooms if they were dirty, including changing soiled linens and making beds, and housekeeping cleaned floors. Staff #3 said there was not a specific time that rooms needed to be checked or cleaned. Staff #3 said, "just when we get to it". On 1/27/26 at 1:10 p.m., Staff #4 said care staff were responsible for cleaning resident rooms and it should have been done after breakfast, but had not. Staff #4 did not provide any reason for the tasks not being completed. On 1/27/26 at 2:30 p.m., Staff #7 said her position was housekeeping, and she cleaned the SE three out of five days a week, but it needed to be cleaned daily. Staff #7 said Resident #5 often smeared feces with her hands, and her room was to be checked and cleaned by care staff on the SE throughout the day, every day. Staff #7 was in Resident #7's room removing a wet brief from the toilet bowl right before the interview at 2:30 p.m., and said she [Staff #7] had mopped the floors in the rooms of Residents #5 and #6. Staff #7 said the brown stains on communal furniture, walls and dining room door was likely chocolate ensure that she cleans up often, but care staff are supposed to help with cleaning on the days she [Staff #7] was not assigned to clean the SE. On 1/27/26 at 3:00 p.m., the wellness director said care staff were expected to check rooms, make beds, and clean them if necessary after breakfast services had been completed and throughout their shifts. The WD said it was not appropriate for care staff to wait until after lunch to clean resident rooms, and staff were expected to clean up common areas and bedrooms and not wait on housekeeping staff to clean. On 1/28/26 at approximately 3:54 p.m., the administrator said it was not acceptable for staff, specifically on the SE, to put off cleaning resident bedrooms or common areas with visible uncleanliness.

Based on record review and interview, the residence failed to update each resident's comprehensive assessment at least annually and whenever the resident's condition changes from baseline status, affecting one of four sample residents (#3) and two former residents (#1) who resided in the secure environment. (Cross reference U1150)Findings Include:1. ReferenceChapter VII regulations governing assisted living residences, part 12.7, requires:"The comprehensive assessment shall include all the following items: b.

She further stated his foot wounds have improved since. Staff #2 acknowledged Resident #3's foot wound started roughly a few months prior to the onsite investigation. She further acknowledged the change in condition, since the resident had not always had foot wounds. On 9/9/25 at 7:49 a.m., the health and wellness director (HWD) stated she had worked at the residence since May 2025, and Resident #3's foot wounds were already there. She further stated she was responsible for updating assessments. The HWD stated she had not completed the 5/17/25 assessment since it was completed prior to her working at the residence.

The external service provider stated there was no wound on Resident #3's foot in January 2025. On 9/9/25 at approximately 11:32 a.m., the administrator stated residents should be assessed whenever they experienced a change in condition and wouldexpect residence staff to comply with the regulation. The administrator stated he was unaware whether Resident #3's wound care services was mentioned in an assessment, and was unsure whether he experienced a change in condition, since he had only worked at the residence since 5/26/25.5. Additional evidence obtained during the on-site visit from 9/8-9/9/25, revealed the residence failed to complete a comprehensive assessment after a change from baseline for Former Resident #1.
