22VAC40-73-560-E
Based on resident record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure all resident records shall be kept current, retained at the facility, and kept in a locked area, except that information shall be made available as noted in subsection F of 22VAC40-73-560.
Evidence
  1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on 02/12/2026. During the on-site inspection on 05/26/2026, the report of resident physical examination, dated 01/29/2026, in the record for resident 1 contained documentation on page 2 that the resident had a pressure ulcer of sacral region, stage 3 healing. The report of resident physical examination contained an order summary report by Collateral 1 that stated on page 1 of 7 that the resident had a pressure ulcer of sacral region, stage 2 and a pressure ulcer of sacral region, stage 3 listed under the resident’s diagnoses. The order summary report also included on page 5 of 7 wound care orders one time a day on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for a wound and a pressure injury over the resident’s left buttock. During an interview with the licensing inspector (LI) and staff persons 1 and 2, staff persons 1 and 2 informed the LI that resident 1 had not been receiving wound care for the wound(s) because the wound(s) had healed; however, during the on-site inspection the record for resident 1 did not contain information that the wound(s) had healed and that wound care was to be discontinued. On 06/05/2026, staff person 1 emailed the LI a progress note from Collateral 2, dated 05/26/2026 at 2:11PM, that the resident’s stage 2 sacral ulceration had healed at the time Collateral 2 had evaluated the resident on 02/17/2026. Staff person 1 confirmed that this information was not available in the resident’s record or at the facility during the on-site inspection on 05/26/2026.
  2. During the on-site inspection on 05/26/2026, the record for resident 1 contained a signed physician’s order, dated 02/17/2026, for compression stockings, daily at 8AM and off at 6PM. The LI asked staff persons 1, 2 and 3 for documentation of where the resident’s compression stockings were being put on and taken off daily by staff; however, no documentation of this was provided during the on-site inspection. On 06/05/2026, staff person 1 emailed the LI a progress note from Collateral 2, dated 05/26/2026 at 2:11PM, that the order for compression stockings that was written by Collateral 2 was for the resident to self-apply herself – encouraged to request for help if unable to get them on herself. Staff person 1 confirmed that this information was not available in the resident’s record or at the facility during the on-site inspection on 05/26/2026.
Plan of correction
If a resident is admitted with wound care orders and assessment findings indicate the wound has healed, the NP will document the healed status in the assessment and document orders to discontinue wound care treatment. If compression stockings are ordered and the resident is independent with application and removal, the NP will document the resident's level of independence in the initial assessment. The ED/DHW will review all admission orders and supporting documentation upon admission and compare them to the NP initial assessment to ensure all active diagnoses, treatments, wound care orders, and physician orders are accurately reflected, clarified, or discontinued as appropriate. Any discrepancies will be addressed with the NP and/or physician and resolved during the admission process. The ED/DHW will audit all new admissions for 30 days to ensure physician orders, assessments, and resident records are reconciled and accurately documented.

Violations
22VAC40-73-40-A
Based on resident record review, facility documentation, and staff interview, the licensee failed to ensure compliance with the facility’s own policies and procedures.
Evidence
  1. During on-site inspection on 06/30/2025, staff person 2 provided the licensing inspector (LI) an alert charting log document that contains information that staff are to document on each shift, until the director of health and wellness indicates that the resident should no longer be included in the alert charting. An example of a resident that would need to be included on the alert charting log is when a resident begins antibiotic therapy – document vital signs and any adverse reactions for the duration of the treatment.
  2. Staff person 2 informed the LI that resident 1 was added to this document on 06/13/2025 because resident 1 was prescribed Doxycycline 100MG by mouth every 12 hours for 10 days. The resident’s June 2025 medication administration record (MAR) contains documentation that the resident was administered Doxycycline 100MG from 06/13/2025 to 06/20/2025 at 8:00AM and 8:00PM daily and on 06/21/2025 at 8:00AM. Staff person 2 informed the LI that the resident’s temperature should have been taken every shift while the resident was taking Doxycycline 100MG as indicated in the instructions of the facility’s alert charting log.
  3. During the on-site inspection on 06/30/2025, staff person 2 revealed that she was unable to provide documentation to the LI that the resident’s temperature had been taken every shift per the instructions of the facility’s alert charting log.
Plan of correction
All RMA’s will be re-educated on what all needs to be documented on alert charting. DHW/RCC will monitor the alert charting book every morning to ensure RMAs are properly documenting. If there are omissions the staff will be asked to come back to the facility to complete documentation
22VAC40-73-450-H
Based on resident record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure that the care and services specified in the individualized service plan (ISP) are provided to each resident.
Evidence
  1. The ISP in the record for resident 1 contains an update on 06/19/2025 for care staff to conduct round checks every 2 hours on the resident for safety and toileting.
  2. During on-site inspection on 06/30/2025, the licensing inspector (LI) was provided with a 2-hour rounding log for resident 1 which was implemented on 06/19/2025; however, the log did not contain staff initials of staff having rounded on the resident on 06/20/2025 at 8:00PM and 10:00PM and on 06/21/2025 at 12:00AM and 2:00AM. Interview with staff persons 1 and 2 confirmed this is accurate.
Plan of correction
DWH/RCC/ designee will review rounding sheets each morning to ensure log is complete. If incomplete the staff who work will be called into work to complete log.
22VAC40-73-560-E
Based on resident record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure all resident records shall be kept current and retained at the facility.
Evidence
  1. The individualized service plan (ISP) in the record for resident 1 contained documentation that the resident had received skilled nursing, physical therapy and occupation therapy services from a home health agency; however, the three services had been marked through with a red marker indicating that the services had been discontinued.
  2. The licensing inspector (LI) asked to see the home health documentation/notes regarding the services they provided to the resident; however, staff person 2 informed the LI that she was unable to locate the documentation/notes in the facility and had to reach out to the home health agency to obtain the notes for the LI’s review.
Plan of correction
DHW/RCC will speak with each HH/Hospice Company Representative and let them know we require a notebook and want notes sent over at least weekly. DHW/RCC will monitor notebooks weekly to ensure all notes are up to date. If they are not will reach out to Company and request they are sent over immediately.
22VAC40-73-470-A
Based on resident record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure, either directly or indirectly, that the health care service needs of residents are met.
Evidence
  1. The record for resident 1 contains a signed physician’s order, dated 05/15/2025, for the facility to schedule an ortho consult for proximal subluxation of first metacarpal.
  2. During on-site inspection on 06/30/2025, the licensing inspector (LI) was informed by staff person 2 that the resident requires assistance with making/arranging medical appointments and that the facility makes medical appointments for the resident. Interview with staff person 2 revealed to the LI that they were unable to provide documentation that an appointment had been made for the resident or that the resident had been to an ortho consult appointment.
Plan of correction
DHW/RCC will keep a community calendar and when residents have a follow up appointment will put it on the calendar and give a note to the front desk to schedule. Every morning the DHW/RCC will review the calendar and compare it with front desk list to ensure all appointments are being scheduled.

Evidence
  1. The hospital after visit summary in the record for resident 1, dated 03/06/2025 to 03/07/2025, states on page 1 that the resident had a scheduled primary care hospital follow-up visit appointment with Collateral 1 on Wednesday 03/12/2025 at 10:20AM and a statement to schedule an appointment with Collateral 1 as soon as possible for a visit in 1 week.
  2. During an interview with the resident and staff persons 1 and 2 on 03/17/2025, the licensing inspector (LI) asked the resident if he went to this appointment. The resident stated that he did not go to the appointment because he did not know about the appointment until his family member received a call on 03/12/2025 wanting to know why the resident was not at the appointment.
  3. The resident informed the LI and staff persons 1 and 2 that the facility will either give him a note about an upcoming appointment or verbally tell him about an upcoming appointment and he was not notified by anyone at the facility regarding this appointment. The resident stated that he takes transportation from the facility, the facility van, to his appointments and will meet his family member at the appointment. Staff persons 1 and 2 were unable to provide documentation that the resident had went to this appointment or that the resident had been to see Collateral 1 as of on-site inspection on 03/17/2025. Staff person 1 further stated that the facility does not provide transportation on Wednesdays for appointments.

The record for resident 1 contains a progress note by Collateral 3, dated 09/28/2023, that the resident has a diagnosis of alcoholic cirrhosis of liver without ascites and a past medical history of alcohol abuse. The record for resident 1 contains a progress note by Collateral 4, dated 10/19/2023, that the resident has a diagnosis of severe alcohol abuse with history of withdrawal and associated seizures – recent admission with alcohol level of 0.326.
  2. The ISPs in the record for resident 1, dated 09/11/2023 and 09/11/2024, do not contain any documentation that the resident has the aforementioned diagnoses. Interview with staff person 1 confirmed this is accurate.
Plan of correction

Based on resident record review, resident interview and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure that the facility assumed general responsibility for the health, safety, and well-being of the resident.
Evidence
  1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on 09/26/2023. The record for resident 1 contains documentation from Collateral 2, dated 09/11/2023 and 09/26/2023, and an order summary report from Collateral 2 signed by a physician, dated 09/25/2023, that the resident has diagnoses of alcohol dependence with withdrawal, alcohol abuse with withdrawal, and unspecified cirrhosis of liver.

As of on-site inspection on 03/21/2025, the record for the resident does not contain an order that the resident may have alcohol. Staff person 1 confirmed this is accurate. In addition, the after-visit summary document from the resident’s 01/10/2024 to 01/12/2024 hospitalization, printed on 01/12/2024 at 1:54PM, contains information on page 2 of 10 that the resident is being discharged with Eliquis and for the resident to please refrain from any alcohol, ibuprofen, naproxen, or other anti-inflammatory medications while taking this medication. Staff person 1 revealed that the resident has continuously been taking Eliquis since he was admitted to the facility on 09/26/2023.
  3. Numerous progress notes from Collaterals 3 and 5 from 10/02/2023 to 02/06/2025 in the record for resident 1 contain documentation that the resident has a history of alcohol abuse, alcohol use disorder, and has alcoholic cirrhosis.
  4. The record for resident 1 contains an after-visit summary for a hospitalization from 11/02/2024 to 11/07/2024 that states that the resident was diagnosed with bleeding of the stomach and intestines. Page 12 of 14 of the after-visit summary contains a statement of gastrointestinal bleeding discharge instructions and documentation of “what care is needed at home?” that states the resident is to avoid drinking beer, wine, and mixed drinks (alcohol).
  5. During an interview with staff person 3 on 03/17/2025, staff person 3 informed the LI that the resident has been attending “Happy Hour”, to his knowledge, every Friday since he has been employed at the facility since September 2024. Staff person 3 stated that the resident had started asking if he can have more alcoholic drinks and if staff person 3 could purchase him alcohol. Staff person 3 stated that he asked staff person 1 how many alcoholic beverages the resident could have and staff person 1 stated no more than 3 during “Happy Hour”; staff person 3 stated that each drink consists of 2 ounces of liquor and the rest Coke. In addition, when staff person 3 asked staff person 1, staff person 1 informed staff person 3 that he could purchase the resident alcohol; however, the resident would have to give his own money to staff person 3 to purchase alcohol. (Due to limited space allowed by the VDSS computer licensing system, the remainder of this volitation notice is on a separate document and available upon request.)
