This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans provided clear direction regarding the delivery of services or were being implemented for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1 and 2) whose service plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 moved into the facility in 09/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and type 2 diabetes and was on hospice services. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, interviews were completed with staff, and observations were made. The service plan did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas: * Wandering into other residents’ apartments; * Meal routines and where s/he chose to dine; * Dressing ability; * Favorite food and beverages; * Current ability to express the need to use the restroom; * Refusals, full and partial, to accept shower assistance from the hospice bath aide and direction to staff when the refusals occurred; * Conflicting information relating to the use of an oral medication to treat type 2 diabetes; * Elopement risk; * Fall interventions; * Sleep patterns; and * Frequency of checks while the resident was in his/her apartment. The need to ensure residents’ service plans provided clear direction to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 (RCC) on 01/15/26 at 1:25 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 moved into the facility in 06/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, interviews were completed with staff, and observations were made. The service plan did not provide clear direction to staff or was not being implemented in the following areas: * The use of an electric toothbrush; * Current frequency of being resistive to care; * The need to be in the sitting position while receiving dressing assistance; * Answering "yes" to all questions asked; and * Morning routine. On 01/12/26 during the noon meal, Resident 2 was observed being fed by a staff member. The resident’s service plan reflected that s/he needed “cueing, prompting and reminders for optimal intake.” The service plan did not direct staff to assist in feeding him/her. Resident 2 was observed multiple times during the survey, dated 01/12/26 through 01/15/26, not wearing glasses. The resident’s service plan directed staff to remind him/her to put glasses on in the morning, take them off at night, and for staff to clean and store them. Resident 2 was observed in the dining room on 01/14/26 at 10:30 am sitting in the dining room. The resident’s walker was approximately three feet away, and not within reach. The resident’s service plan directed staff to ensure the walker “is within safe reaching distance.” During an interview with Staff 22 (CG) on 01/14/26 at 10:49 am, she reported that the resident was supposed to be “reminded” to eat and that s/he can eat independently, but “gets distracted and can take a long time.” She confirmed that when the resident was taking “too long” was when staff would assist to feed Resident 2. Staff 22 stated she was not aware of the resident having glasses and had not seen Resident 2 wearing glasses. The need to ensure residents’ service plans provided clear direction to staff and were being implemented was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 (RCC) on 01/15/26 at 1:25 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING. The facility must have written policies to ensure a resident monitoring and reporting system is implemented 24-hours a day. The policies must specify staff responsibilities and identify criteria for notifying the administrator, registered nurse, or healthcare provider. The facility must: (a) Monitor each resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs and service plan; (b) Train staff to identify changes in the resident's physical, emotional and mental functioning and document and report on the resident's changes of condition; (c) Have a reporting protocol with access to a designated staff person, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, who can determine if a change in the resident's condition requires further action; and (d) Provide written communication of a resident's change of condition, and any required interventions, for caregivers on each shift. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to determine actions or interventions needed for short-term changes of condition, communicate actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and monitor changes through resolution, with at least weekly documentation, for 3 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1, 3, and 4) reviewed with short-term changes of condition. Findings include but are not limited to: 1. Resident 4 moved into the MCC in 10/2020 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed. Resident 4 experienced the following changes of condition between 11/04/25 and 12/17/25: a. On 11/04/25, staff documented in progress notes that the resident was congested and coughing. On 11/13/25, staff documented Resident 4 didn’t go to his/her adult day services due to a cold. There was no documented evidence the resident’s cold symptoms were monitored through resolution. b. On 12/17/25, staff documented in progress notes that the resident had an unwitnessed fall. The facility initiated a temporary service plan on 12/17/25 to monitor for mobility changes. There was no documented evidence the resident’s mobility was monitored through resolution. Staff 3 (RCC) confirmed the lack of documented monitoring through resolution for both short-term changes of condition on 01/14/26 at 11:27 am. The need to ensure changes of condition were monitored at least weekly until resolution was discussed with Staff 1(ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 on 01/15/26 at 10:25 am. The findings were acknowledged, and no additional documentation was provided. 2. Resident 1 moved into the facility in 09/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and type 2 diabetes and was on hospice services. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed. Resident 1 experienced the following changes of condition between 10/01/25 and 12/24/25: a. On 10/23/25, Resident 1 punched a wall which resulted in a skin tear located on his/her right knuckles. There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the resident’s skin tear through resolution. b. On 10/30/25, hospice discontinued the following medications: * Donepezil (for dementia); * Pravastatin (for hyperlipidemia); and * Metformin (for type 2 diabetes). There was no documented evidence staff had been provided monitoring instruction for the change in medication, or the medication changes had been monitored through resolution. c. On 11/12/25, Resident 1 started a new scheduled medication, haloperidol (for dementia with behavioral disturbances). There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the addition of the medication through resolution. d. On 11/25/25, Resident 1’s scheduled haloperidol was decreased due to reports of sedation. There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the resident for decreased sedation with the change in dosage. e. On 12/19/25, the resident started a new medication, melatonin (for sleep management). There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the resident’s sleep due to the addition of the medication through resolution. The need to ensure actions or interventions were determined, documented, and communicated to staff on all shifts for changes of condition and those actions or interventions were monitored for effectiveness, with weekly progress noted in the resident record until the condition resolved, das discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 (RCC) on 01/15/26 at 1:25 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 3 moved into the memory care facility in 11/2019 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s disease and type 2 diabetes. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed. Resident 4 experienced the following changes of condition between 10/12/25 and 01/11/26: a. On 10/14/25, staff documented in progress notes that the resident was “on alert for missed insulin 9/30.” There was no documented evidence the resident’s condition related to the missed insulin was monitored and documented at least weekly through resolution. b. On 11/06/25, staff documented in progress notes that the resident was congested and coughing. There was no documented evidence the resident’s cold symptoms were monitored through resolution. On 01/14/26 at 2:10 pm, the above findings were shared and the need to ensure changes of condition were monitored at least weekly until resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 (RCC). They acknowledged the findings, and no additional documentation was provided.

Plan of Correction

1. What actions will be taken to correct the deficient practice? Resident #1 no longer resides in the facility. The facility reviewed the clinical records for Residents #3 and #4 and updated monitoring documentation as appropriate. Staff were re-educated on recognizing changes of condition and documentation requirements. 2. How will the system be corrected so the violation does not happen again? The facility utilizes a weekly change-of-condition and skin monitoring tool to ensure short-term changes of condition are identified, monitored, and documented at least weekly until resolution. In addition, the interdisciplinary team (IDT) reviews short-term changes of condition during daily clinical meetings to confirm appropriate interventions, communication to all shifts, and ongoing monitoring. 3. How often will the area needing correction be evaluated and who is assigned to evaluate efforts? The Registered Nurse and or designee will conduct weekly audits for 30 days of documentation related to changes of condition, including progress notes, alerts, temporary service plans, medication changes, and monitoring through resolution. Monthly audits will continue for three months, with findings reviewed during QAPI meetings and corrective actions implemented as needed. 4. Who on your staff will be responsible to ensure corrections are completed and monitored? The Executive Director is responsible for ensuring compliance

This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure medication orders were carried out as prescribed for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1 and 4) whose orders were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 4 moved into the MCC in 10/2020 with diagnoses including dementia, hypertension, and edema. The resident’s current physician orders and the 12/2025 and 01/2026 MARs were reviewed. The resident had a 12/02/25 physician order to take 20 mg of furosemide two times daily for high blood pressure. Resident 4’s MAR noted s/he received 20 mg once daily, not twice daily, from 12/03/25 to 01/06/26. Therefore, the facility failed to ensure the resident’s furosemide medication orders were carried out as prescribed on 35 occasions. On 01/14/26 at 10:41 am, Staff 2 (Interim RN) and Staff 3 (RCC) acknowledged there were no additional orders indicating the resident was to receive one 20 mg tablet of furosemide daily. The need to ensure medication orders were carried out as prescribed was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2, and Staff 3 on 01/15/26 at 10:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 1 moved into the facility in 09/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and type 2 diabetes. A review of the resident's physician orders and MARs, dated 10/01/25 through 01/12/26, revealed the following: From 10/30/25 through 01/08/26, the facility did not administer the following medications due to Resident 1 sleeping: * Haloperidol (for dementia with behavioral disturbances) – nine occasions; * Senna (for bowel care) – 12 occasions; * Olanzapine (for dementia behavior management) – 19 occasions; and * Quetiapine (for dementia with behaviors) – one occasion. On 01/15/26 at 11:50 am, Staff 20 (MT) confirmed he did not want to wake the resident up to administer medications due to the resident having behaviors and received no other direction in addition to document that Resident 1 was sleeping. The need to ensure physician or other legally recognized practitioner orders were carried out as prescribed was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 (RCC) on 01/15/26 at 1:25 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

1. What actions will be taken to correct the deficient practice? Resident #1 no longer resides in the facility. For Resident #4, medication orders were clarified and corrected as needed, and provider guidance was obtained regarding missed doses. 2.

The resident’s physician’s orders, MARs, dated 10/01/25 through 01/12/26, and progress notes, dated 10/12/25 through 01/12/26, were reviewed. Staff were interviewed and the following was noted: Resident 1 had physician’s orders for the following PRN psychotropic medications: * Haloperidol 2 mgs by mouth every three hours, as needed, for breakthrough agitation or physical aggression; and * Lorazepam 1 mg every four hours, as needed, for severe agitation or physical aggression. The resident received PRN lorazepam five times from 10/31/25 to 11/23/25, and PRN haloperidol twice from 11/20/25 to 12/22/25. On 01/15/26 at 11:50 am, Staff 20 (MT) was able to show the pop-up screen in the electronic MAR system that prompted MTs to document the non-drug interventions tried and failed. Staff 20 confirmed there were no non-drug interventions tried and failed documented in Resident 1’s record. On 01/15/26 at approximately 12:15 pm, Staff 3 (RCC) stated the documentation of non-drug interventions tried and failed prior to the administration of the PRN psychotropic would be on the resident’s progress notes and confirmed the information would not be documented anywhere else. There was no documented evidence that non-drug interventions were tried and failed prior to the seven administrations of a PRN psychotropic in the resident’s progress notes between 10/31/25 and 12/22/25. The need to document that non-pharmacological interventions had been tried with ineffective results prior to administering PRN psychotropic medications was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), and Staff 3 on 01/15/26 at 1:25 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

1. What actions will be taken to correct the deficient practice? Resident #1 no longer resides in the facility. Staff were re-educated on required documentation, and the resident’s service plan was reviewed to ensure non-pharmacological strategies were clearly identified. 2. How will the system be corrected so the violation does not happen again? The facility revised its psychotropic medication process to require documented non-pharmacological interventions prior to PRN psychotropic use and reinforced use of electronic MAR prompts. Staff education and routine audits were implemented to ensure appropriate use and documentation, with supervisory oversight to address noncompliance promptly. 3. How often will the area needing correction be evaluated and who is assigned to evaluate efforts? The Resident Care Coordinator and or designee will conduct weekly audits for 30 days of PRN psychotropic medication administration and documentation. After 30 days, audits will occur monthly for three months. Audit results will be reviewed during QAPI meetings, and corrective actions will be implemented as needed. 4. Who on your staff will be responsible to ensure corrections are completed and monitored? The Executive Director is responsible for ensuring compliance

Plan of Correction

1. What actions will be taken to correct the deficient practice? The facility conducted an environmental review of resident-use and common areas to identify cleanliness and maintenance concerns and completed immediate cleaning and debris removal, prioritized repairs with leadership and maintenance, and removed unsafe or damaged items from resident-use areas pending repair or replacement. 2. How will the system be corrected so the violation does not happen again? The facility revised its environmental maintenance and housekeeping oversight process, implemented routine environmental inspections, assigned repair tracking and prioritization to the Maintenance Director, reinforced cleaning and reporting expectations with staff, and incorporated environmental standards into ongoing training with leadership monitoring through routine rounds. 3. How often will the area needing correction be evaluated and who is assigned to evaluate efforts? The Maintenance Director and or designee will conduct weekly environmental rounds for 30 days. After 30 days, rounds will occur monthly for three months. Findings and corrective actions will be reviewed during QAPI meetings to ensure sustained compliance. 4. Who on your staff will be responsible to ensure corrections are completed and monitored? The Executive Director is responsible for ensuring compliance

This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure activity evaluations and individualized activity plans were completed for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1 and 2) whose service plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 1 and 2’s service plans and Resident Activities/Interests Assessments were reviewed and offered some information, but the facility had not fully evaluated the residents' activity needs in one or more of the following areas: * Emotional and social needs and patterns; * Physical abilities and limitations; * Adaptations necessary for the resident to participate; and * Activities which could be used as behavioral interventions, if necessary. There were progress notes that documented Resident 1 enjoyed listening to classical music while in his/her apartment. On 01/15/26 at 10:37 am, Staff 18 (CG) reported she was not aware of a radio or any other device for the resident to listen to music on in his/her room. She stated that Resident 1 will watch television and listened to music in the dining room “sometimes”. Staff 18 confirmed the resident did not like a loud environment. Resident 1 lacked a resident-specific activity plan that was developed from the information gathered and detailed what, when, how, and how often staff should offer and assist with relating to his/her individualized activities. The need to ensure activity evaluations were completed for all residents and individualized activity plans were developed and implemented was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (Interim RN), Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Activity Director) on 01/14/26 and 01/15/26. They acknowledged the findings.
