The following was identified: The resident's service plan was not reflective of his/her current needs and/or did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas: * Resistance to receiving care; * Dentures; * Staff responsibility for communication devices, including glasses; * Communication ability; * Pain, including how the resident expresses pain, location of pain, use of pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions; * Evacuation assistance; * Skin concerns, including hematoma to right thigh and swelling to lower extremities; * Who would provide incontinence care items, including briefs; and * Dining preferences, including location, use of straw with drinks, and increased time required during meals. The resident had a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease and was observed to have a significant tremor and required increased time for ADL care, with ambulation, and when eating. Staff stated s/he had dentures until approximately one year prior, when the dentures were lost. Since that time, s/he has not had any dental appliances and had been on a mechanical soft diet texture since 07/2025. S/he required one person assistance for all ADLs and mobility, and staff stated s/he had no history of behaviors or care refusals. Staff stated the resident had significant pain since returning to the facility in 12/2025, benefiting from PRN pain medication and non-pharmaceutical interventions such as elevating and icing his/her leg. The need to ensure service plans were reflective and provided clear direction to staff was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (Health Services Director) on 02/12/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings. Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were reflective of resident care needs, provided clear instruction to staff, and included a written description of who should provide the services and what, when, how, and how often the services should be provided, for 1 of 2 sampled residents (# 2) whose service plan was reviewed.

If resident participation is not possible, documentation must reflect the facility's attempts to determine the resident's preferences. This Rule is not met as evidenced by:
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 observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure resident-specific actions or interventions were determined, documented, and communicated to staff on all shifts for short-term changes of condition and residents were monitored consistent with their evaluated needs at least weekly until the condition resolved, for 1 of 2 sampled residents (# 2) who experienced changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 2 moved into the facility in 07/2017 with diagnoses including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and dysphagia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed, the resident was observed, and staff and the resident were interviewed. The following was identified: a. On 11/09/25, staff documented in progress notes concern the resident had a urinary tract infection and had a “foul odor” coming from his/her groin. There was no documented evidence that actions or interventions were determined, communicated to staff, and progress was monitored at least weekly through resolution. b. On 12/23/25 the resident returned to the facility with skin concerns, including swelling to his/her right leg, a hematoma on his/her right thigh, bruising to his/her right arm, and a scab on his/her right cheek. There was no evidence the skin concerns were monitored at least weekly through resolution. On 02/10/26 at 1:40 pm, Staff 2 (Resident Care Manager/LPN) confirmed there was no additional documentation of monitoring these areas at least weekly. Staff 2 confirmed the resident continued to have a hematoma on his/her right thigh. During the survey, the resident was observed to have a scabbed area, with dried blood at times, on his/her right cheek. c. On 01/14/26 staff documented increased bilateral lower extremity swelling with pitting and sent a fax to the resident’s physician. There was no evidence actions or interventions were determined, communicated to staff on all shifts, or progress monitored at least weekly through resolution. d. On 01/22/26, staff identified a new skin concern consisting of redness in the resident’s groin. There was no evidence actions or interventions were determined, communicated to staff on all shifts, or progress monitored at least weekly through resolution. e. On 01/27/26 staff documented a home health LPN visit note from 01/26/26 which stated the resident had a wound on his/her “right toe.” There was no evidence actions or interventions were determined, communicated to staff on all shifts, and progress monitored at least weekly through resolution. The need to ensure the facility determined and documented what actions or interventions were needed for short-term changes of condition, communicated the interventions to staff on all shifts, and monitored the short-term changes of condition through resolution, with progress documented at least weekly, was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (Health Services Director) on 02/12/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings. Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure resident-specific actions or interventions were determined, documented, and communicated to staff on all shifts for short-term changes of condition and residents were monitored consistent with their evaluated needs at least weekly until the condition resolved, for 1 of 2 sampled residents (# 2) who experienced changes of condition.

1. The actions that will be taken to correct the rule violation are the community will ensure resident-specific actions or interventions are determined and documented, and communicated to the team on all shifts for Resident 2 in regards to UTI, skin concerns, and any other short-term changes that may be occuring with this resident. These will be monitor until the conditions are resolved. 2. The system will be corrected so that this violation will not happen again by ensuring all resident specific actions or interventions are determined, documented, and communicated to staff through the use of a TSP for all short term changes of condiiton. The resident will be monitored consistent with the evaluated needs until the condition is resolved with progress documented. 3. The area needing correction will be evaluated weekly. 4. The Registered Nurse and Executive Director will be responsible to see that the corrections are completed/monitored.
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:

A licensed nurse must provide individual and group education activities as required by individual service plans and facility policies.(F) Intermittent Direct Nursing Services. If a resident requires nursing services that are not available through hospice, home health, a third-party referral, or the task cannot be delegated to facility staff, the facility must arrange to have such services provided on an intermittent or temporary basis. Such services may be of a temporary nature as defined in facility policy, admission agreements and disclosure information. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#2) who experienced a significant change of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 2 moved into the facility in 07/2017 with diagnoses including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and dysphagia. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, the resident was observed, and staff were interviewed. The following was identified: On 09/19/25, the resident’s service plan was completed and stated the resident was independent with mobility/ambulation, had no pain, had a mechanical soft diet texture, was independent with eating, and did not require assistance from staff to transfer from sitting to standing. On 11/23/25, the resident sustained a fall and was admitted to the hospital and, subsequently, to a rehabilitation facility. Upon the resident’s return to the facility on 12/23/25, s/he had experienced a significant change of condition and required: * One person assistance with mobility/ambulation and at times use of a wheelchair; * One person assistance with transfers from sitting to standing; * Puree diet texture; * Assistance with eating; and * Use of a PRN narcotic medication for significant pain which at times inhibited his/her mobility. There was no documented evidence of an RN assessment until 12/29/25, six days after the resident returned to the facility. The RN assessment failed to include interventions made as a result of the assessment. There was no documented evidence of instructions to staff or an update to the resident’s service plan until 01/07/26, 15 days after the resident’s significant change of condition and return to the facility. During an interview with Staff 2 (Resident Care Manager/LPN) on 02/10/26 at 1:40 pm, she stated she was unable to state why the RN assessment and service plan update had not occurred timely, and the RN was no longer employed by the facility. She stated the facility was currently in the process of hiring a facility RN. The need to ensure an RN assessment, including interventions made as a result of the assessment, was completed timely after a significant change of condition was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (Health Services Director) on 02/12/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings.
1. The actions that will be taken to correct the rule violation are the RN will ensure assessments are completed on Resident 2 for significant changes of condition which include mobility and ambulation changes, transfer assistance, puree diet texture, assistance with eating, and use of PRN narcotic medications used for significant pain. This will include interventions, instructions to the team, and updated service plan. 2. The system will be corrected so that this violation will not happen again by the RN assessing all residents in a timely manner when there is a significant change of condition. This would include interventions, documenting instructions to the team, and updated service plans. 3. The area needing correction will be evaluated weekly or with significant changes of condition. 4. The RN, Health Services Director, and the Executive Director will be responsible to see that the corrections are completed/monitored.

(c) The facility is exempt from the coordination of outside health services for residents who are capable and choose to independently arrange and manage their health care needs. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure the facility management or licensed nurse was notified of the services provided by the outside provider to ensure staff were informed of new interventions, and the service plan was adjusted if necessary, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 2) who received home health services. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 2 moved into the facility in 07/2017 with diagnoses including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and dysphagia. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, and staff were interviewed. The following was identified: On 01/27/26, Staff 11 (MT) transcribed an outside provider note dated 01/26/26 from a home health LPN which described a wound to the resident’s “right toe” and noted the wound was healing. The LPN recommended applying lotion to the resident’s feet daily to help prevent cracking and drying. There was no evidence the communication had been reviewed by facility management or a licensed nurse. In an interview on 02/10/26 at 12:47 pm, Staff 2 (Resident Care Manager/LPN) stated that there were many home health notes she had not received for review and was not sure where many notes were. She stated she was unable to find any additional outside provider communication regarding when the resident’s right toe wound was identified or evaluated by home health and had previously been unaware of the note from 01/26/26, the wound to the resident’s right toe, or the recommendation to apply lotion to the resident’s feet. On 02/11/26, Staff 2 stated she had contacted the home health agency and provided a fax from the agency dated 02/11/26 which showed the resident had been evaluated by the agency on 01/12/26 and the case had been closed by the provider on 02/10/26. Staff 2 stated the facility had no record of these visits or communication with the outside provider regarding services rendered or recommendations. The need to coordinate on-site health services with outside service providers such as home health, and the need to ensure facility management or a licensed nurse was notified of the services provided to ensure staff were informed of new interventions, was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (Health Services Director) on 02/12/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings.
1. The actions that will be taken to correct the rule violation are that the community will ensure that all outside provider information is recorded as a visit, updates are completed in Resident 2's service plan, and that all care staff are informed of the new interventions. 2. The system will be corrected so that this violation will not happen again by ensuring on-site health services coordinate with outside service providers to obtain a record or documentation of all visits regarding services rendered and recommendations from the visit. The community will also ensure all management or licensed nurse are notifed of the services provided to ensure staff are informed of new interventions. 3. The area needing correction will be evaluated on a weekly basis. 4. The RN and the Executive Director will be responsible to see that the corrections are completed/monitored.
