OAR 411-054-0025 (4) Reasonable Precautions (4) Reasonable precautions must be exercised against any condition that could threaten the health, safety, or welfare of residents. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to exercise reasonable precautions against any condition which could threaten the health, safety, or welfare of residents for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 7) who had a known history of physical and verbal behaviors toward other residents and staff. This placed residents at risk and constituted an immediate threat to the residents' physical and emotional health and safety. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 7 moved to the facility's MCC in 08/2025 with diagnoses including dementia. During the acuity interview on 02/17/26 at 2:02 pm, Resident 7 was identified to require two people present for all care needs due to increased agitation and “possible exit-seeking behavior.” The resident's service plan that was available to staff, dated 12/18/25, incident reports, and observation notes were reviewed, observations of the resident were made, and interviews with staff were conducted. The following was identified: * The service plan noted Resident 7 “does not have current history of disruptive, aggressive, verbal or socially inappropriate behavior” and provided no instructions to staff on de-escalation interventions in case the resident acted in an aggressive manner towards other residents; * An incident report dated 10/20/25 noted Resident 7 “hitting [MT] repeatedly with a closed fist in the stomach and back handing [sic] this med techs abdomen and hips while yelling [expletive deleted] repeatedly”; * An incident report dated 10/21/25 noted Resident 7 was observed by staff yelling at another resident and “shoving” that resident away; * An incident report dated 12/29/25 noted an unsampled resident of the MCC reported being “hit in the stomach by [Resident 7] and it was hard for [him/her] to breathe.” Consequently, the other resident was sent out for evaluation and admitted to the hospital due to “2 broken ribs and a bruise to [his/her] lung.” The incident was witnessed by another unsampled resident of the MCC; and * An incident report dated 02/12/26 noted a statement from Staff 4 (MT) reporting Resident 7 “swung [his/her] closed fist from the side, hitting the soft lower part of [MT] head/upper neck…. Resident went to continue to punch me when [Staff 10 (CG)] stepped into assist. [Resident] grabbed [Staff 10] neck leaving a welt then continued to hit and grab us.” During the survey, Resident 7 was observed alternatively pacing throughout the perimeter of the MCC or sitting in a chair in the television room. On 02/18/26 at 10:30 am, an unsampled resident was ambulating through the television room with a walker. While that resident was passing, Resident 7 hit the front right wheel of the walker with [his/her] foot, causing the unsampled resident to momentarily lose balance. Staff 29 (CG) came over and redirected the unsampled resident. On 02/19/26 at 10:16 am, Resident 7 loudly addressed another member of the survey team, “There you are again. Why are you walking around, this is my apartment, and I want you to get out.” The surveyor replied she was sorry and was leaving, and walked away from Resident 7. The incident was observed by Staff 4 who told the surveyor, “[S/he] choked me… [S/he] really shouldn’t be in this setting.” It was determined staff were aware of Resident 7's history of physical and verbal aggression toward other residents and staff. In an interview on 02/18/26 at 12:54 pm, Staff 4 stated Resident 7 “can be verbally and physically abusive. We have no prn meds, just have to make sure other residents are safe when [s/he] gets agitated. When [Resident 7] gets agitated, we are unable to re-direct. [S/he] moved here from jail due to assault. If we have agency staff, we tell them about the aggression. It is only verbal communication.” In an interview on 02/19/26 at 10:50 am, Staff 29 stated Resident 7 was easily agitated and combative, got “pretty angry with interactions, even with activities” and “gets verbally [abusive] at least once-twice daily… Usually [s/he] is the aggressor.” Staff 29 indicated the interventions used to de-escalate are based on her working experience but Resident 7 “does not respond to it 9 out of 10 [times].” There was no documented evidence what precautions or interventions the facility took to ensure the safety of residents. The facility's failure to evaluate behavior, determine interventions, and take actions to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of residents placed other residents at risk and constituted an immediate threat to other residents’ physical and emotional safety. An immediate plan of correction was requested on 02/19/26. The facility provided a plan of correction that was accepted on 02/19/26 at 3:31pm, prior to the survey team’s exit. The immediate risk was addressed; however, the facility must evaluate the overall systemic failures associated with this specific violation. The need to ensure the facility exercised reasonable precautions against any condition which could threaten the health, safety, or welfare of residents was discussed with Staff 22 (ED) and Staff 23 (Administrator) on 02/19/26 at 4:52 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0028 (1-3) Reporting & Investigating Abuse-Other Action (Amended 12/15/21)(1) The facility must have policies and procedures in place to assure the prevention and appropriate response to any incident. In the case of incidents of abuse, suspected abuse, or injury of unknown cause, policies and procedures must follow the requirements outlined below. In the case of incidents that are not abuse or injuries of unknown cause where abuse has been ruled out, the facility must have policies and procedures in place to respond appropriately, which may include such things as re-assessment, monitoring, or medication review. (2) ABUSE REPORTING. Abuse is prohibited. The facility employees, agents and licensee must not permit, aid, or engage in abuse of residents who are under their care. (a) STAFF REPORTING. All facility employees are required to immediately report abuse and suspected abuse to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, the facility administrator, or to the facility administrator's designee. (b) FACILITY REPORTING. The facility administrator, or designee, must immediately notify the local SPD office, or the local AAA, of any incident of abuse or suspected abuse, including events overheard or witnessed by observation. (c) LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY. The local law enforcement agency must be called first when the suspected abuse is believed to be a crime (e.g., rape, murder, assault, burglary, kidnapping, theft of controlled substances, etc.). (d) INJURY OF UNKNOWN CAUSE. Physical injury of unknown cause must be reported to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, as suspected abuse, unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably concludes and documents that the physical injury is not the result of abuse. (3) FACILITY INVESTIGATION. In addition to immediately reporting abuse or suspected abuse to SPD, AAA, or the law enforcement agency, the facility must promptly investigate all reports of abuse and suspected abuse and take measures necessary to protect residents and prevent the reoccurrence of abuse. Investigation of suspected abuse must document: (a) Time, date, place and individuals present; (b) Description of the event as reported; (c) Response of staff at the time of the event; (d) Follow-up action; and (e) Administrator's review. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure injuries of unknown cause were reported to the local Seniors and People with Disability (SPD) office as suspected abuse, unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably concluded and documented the injury was not the result of abuse for 3 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1, 2 and 4) whose incidents were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 moved into the community in 05/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. On 09/01/25, staff created an ISP (interim service plan) identifying a “cut (scabbed/ inflammed [sic])” on the resident’s left index finger. On 09/26/25, staff created an ISP identifying a “ping pong size yellow bruise on right shoulder blade.” There was no documented evidence that either injury of unknown cause was immediately investigated to rule out abuse. During an interview at 1:20 pm on 10/08/25, Staff 1 (Administrator) confirmed the above injuries lacked investigation and had not been reported to the local SPD office. The surveyor requested the above injuries be reported to the local SPD office, and confirmation was received at 3:44 pm on 10/08/25. The need to ensure injuries of unknown cause were reported to the local SPD office as suspected abuse unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably ruled out abuse was reviewed with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:00 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 4 moved into the community in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed, and the following was revealed: * 08/07/25 – Injury of unknown cause, staff identified a bruise to the resident’s right shoulder; * 08/14/25 – The resident experienced a fall and sustained a skin tear and bruising to the left knee; * 09/19/25– Injury of unknown cause, staff identified a scab on the resident’s right upper thigh. On 10/08/25 at 1:48 pm, Staff 1 (Administrator) acknowledged there was no investigation to rule out abuse or neglect for the above incidents. The facility failed to promptly investigate the resident's fall with injury and injuries of unknown cause to rule out abuse or report the injuries to SPD as suspected abuse. The facility was instructed to report the fall with injury and injuries of unknown cause to the local SPD office. Proof of reporting was received by the survey team prior to survey exit. The need to ensure all injuries including injuries of unknown cause were reported to the local SPD office as suspected abuse, unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably concluded and documented the physical injury was not the result of abuse, was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 10:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 2 moved into the community in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed, and the following was revealed: On 09/28/25 the resident had an injury fall while “ambulating without [his/her] walker and wheelchair not within reach”. The description of the event also noted s/he “had one shoe on.” The resident returned from the hospital with a wrist fracture. On 10/07/25 at 12:40 pm, Staff 1 confirmed she completed the follow-up action while investigating the fall with injury but had not ruled out abuse. The facility failed to promptly investigate the resident's fall with injury to rule out abuse or report the injury to SPD as suspected abuse. Survey requested the facility report the injury fall to the local SPD office, and confirmation was received at 10/08/25 at 3:40 pm. The need to ensure all incidents contained all required areas of documentation including if abuse could be ruled out, and if not, incidents were reported to the local SPD office, was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0030 (1)(c-d) Resident Services: Activities (c) A daily program of social and recreational activities that are based upon individual and group interests, physical, mental, and psychosocial needs, and creates opportunities for active participation in the community at large; (d) Equipment, supplies and space to meet individual and group activity needs; This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to provide a daily program of social and recreational activities based upon individual and group interests, and physical, mental, and psychosocial needs. Findings include, but are not limited to: The MCC was divided into two separate units that included two distinct areas within each locked unit. At the time of the survey, the MCC was home to 34 residents. Observations during the survey, from 02/17/26 to 02/19/26, showed a lack of scheduled and unscheduled activities provided for residents living in the MCC. The activity calendar for February 2026 was provided and indicated scheduled activities for each day of the week. The activities scheduled according to the calendar for 02/18/26 and 02/19/26 included the following: 02/18/26: * 08:00 am -Coffee and Chronicle * 10:00 am – Chair Yoga * 10:30 am - Baking * 1:00 pm – Wednesday Craft Club-Paper Marbling * 3:00 pm – Word Search Game Observations at 10:00 am, 10:30 am, 1:00 pm and 3:00 pm were made and the activities did not take place. 02/19/26: * 8:00 am – Coffee and Chronicle * 10:00 am – Seated Calisthenics * 10:30 am – Virtual Tours * 1:00 pm – Craft-Winter Water coloring * 3:00 pm - Game Observations were made at 10:00 am, 10:30 am, 1:00 pm, and 3:00 pm, and the only activity observed was the 10:00 am Seated Calisthenics facilitated by Witness 2 (OT Assistant). Four residents participated in balloon batting. Interviews with Staff 27 (CG/MT) and Staff 28 (CG/MT) on 02/17/26 at 3:55pm indicated staff were responsible to perform activities with the residents. Staff 27 pointed at the posted activity calendar on the wall and acknowledged the activities on the calendar did not happen. “We have a calendar of what we’re supposed to do but 99% of the time we don’t know what the activity is and where it is happening.” She referred to Chair yoga and Coffee and Chronicles activities as examples. An unsampled resident’s family member was seated in the dining room and added, “There is nothing ever happening on that schedule.” During the survey multiple staff acknowledged the activity person was rarely present and believed the only activity staff was the Activity Director who was responsible for the entire campus, which included two MCCs and the assisted living facility. Throughout the survey, residents were observed wandering the units, sleeping in chairs in the common areas for long periods, sitting in front of the television, or remaining in their rooms, unengaged in individual or group activities. On 02/19/26 at 4:15 pm, Staff 22 (ED) acknowledged the lack of scheduled and unscheduled activities. She reported they had hired a new Activity Director, as the prior one left in 01/2026, and they are planning to hire additional activity staff. The need to ensure the facility provided a daily program of social and recreational activities that were based on individual and group interests and physical, mental, and psychosocial needs was discussed with Staff 22 and Staff 23 (Administrator) on 02/19/26 at 4:15 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: Observations during the survey on 04/16/26 showed there was a lack of scheduled and unscheduled activities provided for residents living in the MCC. The MCC consisted of two wings, Riverside and Mountainside. An activity calendar was posted which noted scheduled activities for each day of the week. The activities noted for 04/16/26 included the following: · 10:00 am - Seated Yoga (Riverside); · 10:30 am – Seated Yoga (Mountainside); · 11:00 am – Lunch and Chronicles; and · 2:00 pm – Birthday Party. Observations made on 04/16/26 confirmed seated yoga did not take place at 10:00 am in Riverside or at 10:30 am in Mountainside. The scheduled activity at 11:00 am consisted of the chronicles page placed on the dining tables. The birthday party took place in the assisted living side of the facility, and staff determined which residents from the MCC they thought would like to attend. Three residents from Mountainside were observed being taken to the party. No other residents were included from Mountainside. The television remained on in the common areas of both Riverside and Mountainside throughout the period of the survey, with multiple residents present, some watching and some sleeping. Other residents were observed wandering the hallways or sitting at tables in the dining room. Residents who were in their apartments were not approached for activity invitations during observations. Staff 25 (MT) was asked during an interview on 04/16/26 at 10:49 am if she observed a structured activity program and responded “No, I don’t.” The need to ensure the facility provided a daily program of social and recreational activities that were based on individual and group interests, and physical, mental, and psychosocial needs was discussed with Staff 23 (Administrator) on 04/16/26 at 2:45 pm. Staff 23 acknowledged the activities program was “not where it needed to be.”

A service plan dated 09/19/25 was provided by the facility at 3:15 pm on 10/06/25, but this was not available to staff at the time of survey entrance. b. The 09/19/25 service plan was not reflective of the resident’s current care needs, and/or lacked clear instructions in the following areas: * Emergency evacuation assistance; * Outside provider services, including HH PT and OT; * How the resident exhibits anxiety and agitation; * Non-pharmaceutical interventions for behaviors; * Preferences for sleeping and bathing; and * Ability to communicate and understand others. During an interview on 10/09/25 at 1:15 pm, Staff 4 (CG) acknowledged communication with Resident 2 was “hard to figure out” because s/he was emotional, “cries more” and then takes time to figure out what s/he is trying to communicate. The need to ensure residents’ current service plans were readily available to staff, were reflective of the resident’s status and care needs, and provided clear instructions to staff regarding the delivery of services was reviewed with Staff 1(Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0036 (1-4) Service Plan: General (1) If the resident has a Person-Centered Service Plan pursuant to 411- 004-0030, the facility must incorporate all elements identified in the person centered service plan into the resident's service plan. (2) SERVICE PLAN. The service plan must reflect the resident's needs as identified in the evaluation and include resident preferences that support the principles of dignity, privacy, choice, individuality, and independence. (a) The service plan must be completed: (A) Before resident move-in, with updates and changes as appropriate within the first 30-days; and (B) Following quarterly evaluations. (b) The service plan must be readily available to staff and provide clear direction regarding the delivery of services. (c) The service plan must include a written description of who shall provide the services and what, when, how, and how often the services shall be provided. (d) Changes and entries made to the service plan must be dated and initialed. (e) When the resident experiences a significant change of condition the service plan must be reviewed and updated as needed. (f) A copy of the service plan, including each update, must be offered to the resident or to the resident's legal representative. (g) The facility administrator is responsible for ensuring the implementation of services. (h) Changes to the service plan, including updates due to a significant change of condition and quarterly updates must be reflected in the facility’s ABST care elements. (3) SERVICE PLAN REQUIREMENTS BEFORE MOVE-IN. (a) Based on the resident evaluation performed before move-in, an initial service plan must be developed before move-in that reflects the identified needs and preferences of the resident. (b) The initial service plan must be reviewed within 30-days of movein to ensure that any changes made to the plan during the initial 30- days, accurately reflect the resident's needs and preferences. (c) Staff must document and date adjustments or changes as applicable. (4) QUARTERLY SERVICE PLAN REQUIREMENTS. (a) Service plans must be completed quarterly after the resident moves into the facility. (b) The quarterly evaluation is the basis of the resident's quarterly service plan. (c) If the resident's service plan is revised and updated at the quarterly review, changes must be dated and initialed, and prior historical information must be maintained. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents’ current service plans were readily available to staff, reflective of residents’ current care needs, and provided clear direction to staff regarding the delivery of services, for 3 of 3 sampled residents (#s 5, 6, and 7) whose service plans were reviewed. This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 07/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and stage III kidney disease. Resident 5’s most recent service plan, dated 01/21/26, and temporary service plans were reviewed. Observations were made, and interviews with staff were conducted. The service plan was not reflective of the resident’s status and did not provide information or instructions to staff in the following areas: * Use of a side rail; * Emergency evacuation ability; * Hospice services; and * Home health counseling. Observations during the survey showed a side rail in use and review of records confirmed hospice services and home health counseling. The need to ensure residents’ current service plans were reflective of the resident’s status and care needs and provided clear instructions to staff regarding the delivery of services was reviewed on 02/19/26 at 11:45 am with Staff 23 (Administrator). She acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 6 moved into the community in 09/2025 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s dementia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed, observations were made, and interviews were conducted. The following was identified: a. During the acuity interview on 02/17/26, facility staff reported service plans were stored in the service plan binder located in the MT office in each unit for direct care staff to review. Upon observation of the binder in the Mountainside unit at 3:25 pm on 02/17/26, the service plan for Resident 6 was dated 10/21/25. A service plan, dated 02/02/26, was provided by the facility at 1:47 pm on 02/18/26, but this was not available to staff at the time of survey entrance. b. The 02/02/26 service plan was not reflective of the resident’s current care needs and lacked clear instructions in the following areas: * Outside provider services, including hospice RN and shower aide; * How the resident exhibits\ed anxiety and agitation, including possible triggers; * Pain, including location and how the pain was exhibited; * Non-pharmaceutical interventions for behaviors; * Dressing, personal hygiene and grooming assistance, including what interventions were effective when resistant to care; * Incontinence care, including who provided the services; * Bathing, including one- to two-person assist due to behaviors; * Cognition, including confusion and difficulty finding words; and * Preferences for sleeping. The resident’s service plan indicated the resident was independent with bathing, grooming, personal hygiene, dressing, and toileting, was continent of bowel and bladder, had no impairment with communication, and experienced occasional disorientation that did not interfere with functioning. The resident was taking a PRN psychotropic medication for agitation/anxiety but the non-pharmaceutical interventions were not on the service plan for staff to try prior to administering the medication. Observations during the survey showed the resident preferred to sleep in past 9:30 am and required assistance from staff for ADL care including dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, and toileting assistance. In an interview with the resident, s/he was not able to complete sentences or answer questions about the care received. During interviews with care staff and the hospice RN between 02/17/26 through 02/19/26, they noted the resident was incontinent of bowel and bladder, confused and needed assistance locating the bathroom, resistant to care, and typically required one additional staff to assist the shower aide. The resident had pain in his/her hip and knee but was not always able to state where or reliably rate the pain. The need to ensure residents’ current service plans were readily available to staff, were reflective of the residents’ status and care needs, and provided clear instructions to staff regarding the delivery of services was reviewed with Staff 22 (ED) and Staff 23 (Administrator) on 02/19/26 at 4:15 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 7 was admitted to the facility in 08/2025 with diagnoses including dementia. Observations were made of the resident on 02/18/26 and 02/19/26, interviews with the resident and facility staff were conducted, and the service plan, dated 12/18/25, and the MARs from 01/08/26 through 02/17/26 were reviewed. Resident 7's service plan was not reflective of the resident's current needs and lacked clear instructions to staff in the following areas: * Instructions for bleeding precautions and interventions while on anticoagulation therapy (Eliquis 5mg); * Instructions for behaviors related to verbal and physical aggression towards residents and staff; and * Instructions to staff regarding resident’s smoking. The service plan had no record of resident’s smoking habits. According to the MARs, the resident was taking varenicline 1mg twice daily for smoking cessation. On 02/19/26 at 3:39 pm, Resident 7 was observed smoking a cigarette in the interior courtyard. During an interview on 02/19/26 at 3:41 pm, Staff 4 (MT) confirmed the resident was a smoker who needed to be accompanied by staff when smoking and kept his/her cigarettes on the medication cart. The need to ensure service plans reflected residents' current needs and provided clear instructions to staff regarding the delivery of services was reviewed with Staff 22 (ED) and Staff 23 (Administrator) on 02/19/26 at 4:52 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 observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents who had short-term changes of condition were evaluated, resident-specific instructions or interventions were developed, interventions were communicated to staff, the condition was monitored at least weekly to resolution and interventions were re-evaluated to determine effectiveness and/or failed to evaluate residents who experienced a significant change in condition, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan for 4 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1, 2, 3 and 4) who experienced changes of condition. Resident 2 experienced severe ongoing weight loss and ongoing falls with injuries including a wrist fracture and Resident 4 experienced severe ongoing weight loss. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 4 moved into the community in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. Resident 4’s weight record noted the following: * 05/05/25 – 117.2 pounds; * 06/04/25 – 106.9 pounds; * 07/14/25 – 96.4 pounds; * 08/02/25 – 101.2 pounds; * 09/07/25 – 97.9 pounds; * 10/05/25 – 90 pounds; and * 10/07/25 – 96 pounds. Between 05/05/25 and 06/04/25, the resident was noted to have lost 10.3 pounds, or 8.78% of his/her total body mass in one month. This constituted a severe weight loss and required an RN assessment. There was no documented evidence the facility evaluated Resident 4, referred to the facility nurse, documented the change, and updated the resident’s service plan when the severe weight loss was discovered. The resident continued to lose weight. * 08/08/25 - The facility communicated with the resident’s PCP, noting the resident’s weight loss and resulting in an order to increase administration of protein shakes from twice daily to three times daily at 8:00 am, 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm; and * 08/14/25 - Progress note “…Resident has had a significant [weight] loss of 17 pounds in the last six months, PCP has been notified and orders received, encourage protein shakes and monitor caloric intake as well as weigh weekly. In an interview with Staff 1 (Administrator) on 10/08/25 at 11:02 am, she confirmed the facility did not evaluate Resident 4 for the severe weight loss, refer the resident to the facility nurse, document the change and update the resident’s service plan when the severe weight loss was initially discovered. She confirmed the facility had not monitored the interventions for Resident 4’s severe ongoing weight loss for effectiveness or determined if new interventions were needed and the resident continued to lose weight through 10/05/25. The facility's failure to evaluate Resident 4 for severe weight loss when first detected, put the resident’s health and safety at risk for further weight loss. b. Review of Resident 4’s progress notes dated 07/06/25 through 10/06/25, it was noted the following short- term changes of condition: * 08/07/25 - Injury of unknown cause, bruise to the right shoulder; * 08/14/25 - The resident experienced a fall with a skin tear and bruising to the right knee; and * 09/19/25 - Injury of unknown cause, scab on right upper thigh. There was no documented evidence these reportable events were monitored with progress noted at least weekly to resolution. The need to evaluate residents who experienced significant changes in condition, refer to the facility nurse, document as required, monitor interventions for effectiveness and monitor short-term changes of condition with progress noted at least weekly to resolution was reviewed with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 10:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident's 09/19/25 service plan, 07/07/25 through 10/06/25 progress notes, weight records, and interim service plans (ISP) were reviewed. a. The service plan indicated Resident 2 required a gluten free diet and needed “reminding/cueing to maintain adequate intake." Resident 2 was on thin liquids and a regular texture diet. Resident 2’s weight records were reviewed during the survey and revealed the following: * 08/07/25: 119.8 pounds; * 09/05/25: 111.8 pounds; and * 10/09/25: 107 pounds (requested during the survey). Between 08/07/25 and 09/05/25 the resident experienced a severe weight loss of 8 pounds, or 6.7% of his/her total body weight, in one month. This change in weight constituted a severe loss and indicated a significant change of condition. There was no documented evidence the facility evaluated the resident, referred the significant weight loss to the facility nurse for assessment, documented the weight loss and updated the service plan. A current weight for Resident 2 was requested on 10/07/25 at 12:26 pm. On 10/09/25 at 10:36 am the resident weighed 107 pounds. From 09/05/25 through 10/09/25, the resident continued to lose weight, an additional 4.8 pounds, or an additional 4.3% of his/her total body weight. During the survey the following was observed: * On 10/07/25 for breakfast, Resident 2 consumed 50% of his/her scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon, and a fruit cup. S/he initially attempted to eat with his/her fingers until intermittent assistance was provided from a care staff. * On 10/09/25 for breakfast, Resident 2 consumed 100% of pears and 50% of scrambled eggs and cottage cheese. A care staff provided meal assistance until Resident 2 was finished. During an interview on 10/07/25 at 3:05 pm, Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (RCC) acknowledged Resident 2 had not been evaluated and referred to the facility nurse for the severe weight loss identified on 09/05/25. Resident 2 experienced a severe weight loss on 09/05/25. The facility’s failure to ensure the resident’s severe weight loss was evaluated and referred to the facility nurse put the resident’s health and safety at risk. Resident 2 continued to experience additional weight loss after 09/05/25. An immediate plan of correction was requested by the survey team on 10/09/25. The facility provided a plan of correction on 10/10/25 at 8:26 am, prior to survey exit. The immediate risk was addressed; however, the facility will need to evaluate the overall system failure associated with the licensing violation. b. Fall prevention interventions listed on the 09/19/25 service plan included a wheelchair was used for mobility and Resident 2 required two person assistance for ambulation and transfers with use of a gait belt. On 08/10/25 Resident 2 experienced a fall and sustained a femur (hip) fracture that required surgical repair. S/he returned to the facility on 08/18/25. An evaluation was initiated on 08/19/25 with an ISP completed on 08/26/25 which instructed staff ensure Resident 2 “is in common area to reduce fall risk. When resident is in bed provide hourly checks. Ensure floor is free of clutter [sic] she is wearing appropriate footwear and is toileting frequently.” Following the 08/10/25 fall, Resident 2 experienced the following four unwitnessed falls between 08/29/25 through 09/28/25: * 08/29/25: Fall with skin tear to right arm; * 09/24/25: Fall with “goose egg” to back of head and additional bruising was identified on 09/25/25; * 09/27/25: Non-injury fall, found on floor in bedroom; and * 09/28/25: Fall with wrist fracture, found with one shoe off. On 08/31/25 the facility ISP instructed staff to "place on alert charting for 72 hours. Monitor for: Bruising, changes in mobility, decreased range of motion, increased need for assistance with ADL’s, or changes in condition. Provide increased amount of assistance as needed. Cue and remind resident to call for assistance with ADL’s, reaching for objects, answering the phone, etc. as needed and when feeling dizzy or weak. Remind the resident to use walker or wheelchair for mobility, to decrease further risk of falls." Additionally, an ISP dated 08/29/25 instructed staff to check on resident three times per shift to offer assistance and also monitor for dizziness/weakness. An ISP, dated 09/24/25, for the 09/24/25 fall, had the same pre-determined instructions as the 08/31/25 ISP. No ISP had been completed for the non-injury fall on 09/27/25. Although the facility completed ISPs for two additional falls on 08/29/25 and 09/24/25, there was no documented evidence the current interventions were reviewed for effectiveness or new interventions were developed, to help prevent possible future falls. On 09/28/25 Resident 2 had an additional fall and sustained a wrist fracture with an emergency room visit, resulting in a significant change of condition. During an interview on 10/09/25 at 9:59 am, Staff 21 (CG) indicated he needed to “keep a close eye” on Resident 2. When the resident was awake, staff would ensure s/he was in the common area and when in bed, staff would complete hourly checks. He stated Resident 2 liked to stand up from the wheelchair often. Observations of Resident 2 during the survey on 10/06/25 through 10/09/25 identified Resident 2 required staff to provide wheelchair escort, was not ambulatory, and needed two person assist with transfers. Staff provided hourly checks when s/he was in his/her room. During an interview on 10/07/25 at 12:40 pm, Staff 1 (Administrator) confirmed there was no additional documentation current fall prevention interventions were reviewed for effectiveness following subsequent falls and if not determined effective, new interventions were put in place. There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the existing fall prevention interventions at the time of each fall or for patterns related to the falls, determined and documented what new interventions were needed for the resident subsequent to each fall. The resident continued to have falls with injury and an emergency room visit that included a significant change of condition. c. The facility lacked documented evidence the following short-term changes of condition were monitored at least weekly until resolution: * 08/18/25: Return from the hospital; * 08/18/25: Surgical incision following hip surgery; * 08/29/25: Fall; * 08/29/25: Skin tear to right arm; * 09/24/25: Fall; * 09/24/25: Bruising to back of head; and * 09/25/25: Bruising to left bottom, right calf and left wrist. d. On 09/29/25 the resident was prescribed oxycodone 5 mg 0.5 to 1 tablet PRN for severe pain following an emergency room visit for a wrist fracture. There was no documented evidence the resident had been monitored through resolution as to whether the pain control measures were effective and any adverse effects from the opioid pain medication. The need to evaluate changes of condition, refer changes to the facility nurse when needed, determine actions or interventions and communicate them to staff, and monitor through resolution, with at least weekly documentation, was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 1 moved into the community in 05/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s clinical record was reviewed and revealed the following: The following short-term changes of condition lacked documentation the facility determined what resident specific action or intervention was needed for the resident, communicated the determined action or intervention to staff, and/ or documented weekly progress until the condition resolved: The facility created ISPs for three of four changes in dosage or administration frequency to PRN Lorazepam, however, the ISPs were not resident specific, nor was there evidence staff monitored the resident until resolution; 09/01/25: staff created an ISP identifying a “cut on left index finger,” but did not determine interventions or monitor for weekly progress until resolved; 09/12/25: staff created an ISP for a new order for Bupropion HCl (anti-depression medication) after it was discontinued for one week and reordered with dosage change, however, the ISP was not resident specific as to what side effects to monitor, nor did staff monitor the resident until resolution; 09/22/25: progress notes documented “red and irritated… cluster of pimple-like spots on resident’s right upper buttock,” but this was not communicated to staff, interventions were not determined, and the condition was not monitored through resolution; 09/26/25: staff created an ISP documenting a “ping pong sized yellow bruise on right shoulder blade,” however, interventions were not determined, nor was the condition monitored through resolution; and 10/03/25: staff created an ISP for a witnessed fall resulting in the resident hitting the “back of head,” however, the ISP did not specify what staff should monitor, and the condition was not monitored through resolution. The need to ensure the facility documented short term changes of condition and determined resident specific interventions, communicated these interventions to staff, and monitored the resident for progress at least weekly until resolution was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Operations Director) on 10/10/25 at 11:00 am. They acknowledged the findings. 4. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 09/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and depression. A review of the resident’s clinical record and chart notes indicated the following: Between 09/20/25 and 09/23/25 the resident started four new medications and had a dosage change to one of these new medications. The facility created ISPs informing staff of potential side effects, directing them to report changes from resident’s baseline to MT/LN. There was documentation from staff noting resident’s progress however no indication these short term changes of condition were resolved and monitoring discontinued. The need to ensure changes of condition were monitored, at least weekly, through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (RCC) on 10/09/25 at 11:31 am. They acknowledged the findings and no further documentation was provided.

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:

OAR 411-054-0045 (1)(a-f)(A)(C-F) Resident Health Services Resident Health Services (1) RESIDENT HEALTH SERVICES. The facility must provide health services and have systems in place to respond to the 24-hour care needs of residents. The system must:(a) Include written policies and procedures on medical emergency response for all shifts.(b) Include an Oregon licensed nurse who is regularly scheduled for onsite duties at the facility and who is available for phone consultation.(c) Assure an adequate number of nursing hours relevant to the census and acuity of the resident population. IICs must meet contract requirements concerning nursing hours.(d) Ensure that the facility RN is notified of nursing needs as identified in OAR 411-054-0034 (Resident Move-In and Evaluation) or OAR 411-054-0036 (Service Plan - General).(e) Define the duties, responsibilities and limitations of the facility nurse in policy and procedures, admission, and disclosure material.(f) Licensed nurses must deliver the following nursing services:(A) Registered nurse (RN) assessment in accordance with facility policy and resident condition. At minimum, the RN must assess all residents with a significant change of condition. The assessment may be a full or problem focused assessment as determined by the RN. A chart review or phone consultation may be performed as part of this assessment. The RN must document findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of this assessment. The assessment must be timely, but is not required prior to emergency response in acute situations.(C) Monitoring of Resident Condition. The facility must specify the role of the licensed nurse in the facility's monitoring and reporting system.(D) Participation on Service Planning Team. If the resident experiences a significant change of condition and the service plan is updated, the licensed nurse must participate on the Service Planning Team, or must review the service plan with date and signature within 48 hours.(E) Health Care Teaching and Counseling. 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 observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an RN assessment included documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment for 2 of 3 sampled residents (#s 2 and 4) who experienced a significant change of condition. Residents 2 and 4 experienced ongoing, significant weight loss. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident's service plan, dated 09/19/25, progress notes, dated 07/07/25 through 10/06/25, weight records, and interim service plans were reviewed. a. Weight records showed Resident 2 experienced a severe and ongoing weight loss between 08/07/25 and 10/09/25: * 08/07/25: 119.8 pounds; * 09/05/25: 111.8 pounds; and * 10/09/25: 107 pounds. Between 08/07/25 and 09/05/25 the resident experienced a severe weight loss of 8 pounds, or 6.7% of his/her total body weight, in one month. This change in weight constituted a severe loss and indicated a significant change of condition, which required an RN assessment. There was no documented evidence an RN assessment had been completed that included findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment, after Resident 2’s severe weight loss was identified on 09/05/25. A current weight for Resident 2 was requested on 10/07/25 at 12:26 pm. On 10/09/25 at 10:36 am the resident weighed 107 pounds. From 09/05/25 through 10/09/25, the resident continued to lose weight, losing an additional 4.8 pounds, or an additional 4.3 % of his/her total body mass. Refer to C 270, example 2a. b. Resident 2 experienced the following: * On 08/10/25 the resident experienced a fall with a right hip fracture and was hospitalized for surgery from 08/10/25 through 08/18/25. * On 09/28/25 the resident experienced a fall with a left wrist fracture and resulted in an emergency room visit. The hip and wrist fractures constituted a significant change of condition, for which an RN assessment was required. On 10/07/25 an RN assessment for the hip and wrist fractures were requested. During an interview on 10/07/25 at 2:28 pm, Staff 17 (Health Services Director) acknowledged she had not completed an RN assessment for Resident 2’s left wrist fracture. She was recently hired in 09/2025 and was not employed when Resident 2 returned to the facility following surgery for the hip fracture. During an interview on 10/10/25 at 12:15 pm, Staff 1 (Administrator) indicated there was no documented evidence an RN assessment had been completed for the hip or wrist fracture which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment. No further documented evidence was provided. The need to ensure significant changes of condition were assessed by an RN and included findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment was discussed with. Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 4 moved into the community in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. Review of the resident’s 09/12/25 service plan and interviews with direct care staff noted the resident ate a regular diet with thin liquids. Staff were instructed to provide finger foods when available. The resident required cueing and occasional feeding assistance. Resident 4 had a physician’s order for a wellness protein shake, one bottle, three times a day at 8:00 am, 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm. Resident 4 was observed to consume the following foods during the survey: * On 10/07/25 for breakfast, the resident consumed two medium sized pancakes with maple syrup and two sausage links; * On 10/07/25 for lunch, the resident received assistance with feeding and consumed 100% of a Mexican casserole and steamed cauliflower and a small pastry for dessert; and * On 10/08/25 for breakfast, the resident consumed a bowl of scrambled eggs with bacon and 10 oz of wellness protein shake. Resident 4’s weight record noted the following: * 04/08/25 – 121.4 pounds; * 05/05/25 – 117.2 pounds; * 06/04/25 – 106.9 pounds; * 07/14/25 – 96.4 pounds; * 08/02/25 – 101.2 pounds; * 09/07/25 – 97.9 pounds; * 10/05/25 – 90 pounds; and * 10/07/25 – 96 pounds. Between 05/05/25 and 06/04/25, the resident was noted to have lost 10.3 pounds, or 8.78% of his/her total body mass in one month. This constituted a severe weight loss and required an RN assessment. There was no documented evidence an RN completed an assessment after Resident 4’ s severe weight loss was identified on 06/04/25. From 06/04/25 through 10/05/25, the resident continued to lose weight, losing an additional 16.9 pounds, or an additional 15.8 % of his/her total body mass. A current weight for Resident 4 was requested on 10/08/25. At 1:32 pm the resident was observed to weigh 96 pounds. In an interview with Staff 1 (Administrator), on 10/08/25 at 11:02 am, she confirmed the lack of an RN assessment, which included findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment, for Resident 4's severe and ongoing weight loss. The facility's failure to ensure an RN assessment, which included findings, resident status and interventions made as a result of the assessment, was completed for Resident 4's severe and ongoing weight loss put the resident's health and safety at risk. The need for the facility RN to assess significant changes of condition and document findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment was discussed with Staff 17 (Health Services Director/RN) on 10/08/25 at 11:46 am and with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 10:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. ?

1. We will coordinate onsite health services with outside providers through outside provider forms, to ensure staff are notified of new interventions through ISP's, and service plans are updated with new information when needed. 2. We will provide outside providers an outside provider form to be completed after each visit outling any new instructions. This form will be turned into the MT to process, who will chart the new instructions in progress notes,complete an ISP, and place ISP in RA ISP binder. All paperwork is processed through a three person check. First check is the MT, second check is the RCC, third check is the RN, all to ensure instructions are relayed to staff and service plans are updated. ISP's will be created for resident #2 for the most recent HH visit with their instructions to communicate with direct care staff. 3. This will be evaluated weekly at the clinical meetings. 4.

Implemented: ORS 443.004, 443.400-443.455, 443.991 This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation and interview, it was determined the facility failed to follow established infection prevention and control protocols to ensure a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment for 2 of 3 sampled resident (#s 2 and 4) whose ADL care was observed, and for multiple sampled and unsampled residents during meal service. Findings include, but are not limited to: During general resident observations on 10/07/25 at 9:41 am, Staff 6 (CG) was observed entering the unit carrying a plate of bite-sized pancake pieces and a cup of juice, setting them next to a resident whose wheelchair was positioned at the table. Without performing hand hygiene or donning gloves, she sat beside the resident and proceeded to hand the pieces of pancake to the resident. The need to ensure infection prevention and control protocols were maintained to provide a safe, sanitary and comfortable environment was reviewed on 10/10/25 at 11:00 am with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations). They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 4 moved into the community in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident was identified as requiring occasional assistance with feeding during meal service. Observations of meal service were completed between 10/06/25 and 10/09/25. Direct care staff were observed to serve meals and beverages to the residents, provide physical feeding assistance to Resident 4, collect soiled dishes and clean tables during meal service. On 10/07/25 at 11:28 am, Staff 6 (CG) and Staff 12 (CG) were observed eating their individual lunches during the facility’s lunch meal service. Staff 12 was observed standing at the kitchenette counter, eating from her plate of food. Staff 12 reached into a container and handed a resident a pastry using her bare hand. Staff 12 then began clearing resident’s dishes and pouring drinks for several residents. Staff 12 was not observed to perform hand hygiene after eating and before serving the pastry or pouring drinks for the residents. At 12:28 pm, Staff 12 was observed to use a paper towel to wipe her mouth and then used the same paper towel to wipe the kitchenette counter before throwing it in the garbage can. At 12:26 pm, Staff 6 was observed seated at the kitchenette counter, next to Resident 4, rotating between feeding the resident with a fork out of the resident plate of food and feeding herself with a fork out of her own bowl of food using the same hand. Staff 6 was not observed to perform hand hygiene after eating and before feeding the resident. The need to ensure infection prevention and control protocols were maintained was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 10:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. A review of his/her current service plan and interviews with staff revealed s/he was dependent on two staff for toileting tasks. On 10/08/25 at 9:53 am, the surveyor observed two staff provide incontinence care for Resident 2 in bed. Prior to removing the soiled brief, a clean brief was pulled up onto the resident’s thighs. Resident 2 was assisted onto his/her side, the soiled brief was removed, not bagged and placed on the resident’s sheets and draw sheet, near the head of the bed. One staff used wipes to clean the perineal area and tossed the wipes onto the soiled brief. Prior to assisting the resident roll onto his/her back, the soiled brief and wipes were not bagged and tossed onto the floor. Additionally, staff did not change gloves between “clean” and “dirty” tasks and with the same soiled gloves were observed touching the resident’s legs, clean brief, draw sheet, bedding, and the pillow placed under the resident’s legs. The need to ensure infection prevention and control protocols were followed was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0055 (1)(e) Systems: Tracking Control Substances (e) The facility must have a system approved by a pharmacist consultant or registered nurse for tracking controlled substances and for disposal of all unused, outdated or discontinued medications administered by the facility. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to have a system in place for tracking controlled substances administered by the facility, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 2) whose MARs and Controlled Substance Drug Disposition logs were compared for accuracy. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. Resident 2’s 09/29/25 through 10/07/25 MARs and Controlled Substance Disposition Log, dated 09/29/25/25 to 10/06/25, were reviewed and showed the following: * Physician orders for oxycodone 5 mg to give 0.5 to 1 tab as needed every four hours for severe pain; * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 09/29/25 at 1:40 pm. The MAR reflected it was administered at 2:54 pm; * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 10/01/25 at 8:00 am. The MAR reflected it was administered at 8:44 am; * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 10/04/25 at 6:00 pm, and the dose was not reflected on the MAR; * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 10/05/25 at 8:30 am, and the dose was not reflected on the MAR; * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 10/05/25 at 5:00 pm. The MAR reflected it was administered at 4:14 pm; and * A dose was signed out in the disposition log on 10/06/25 at 3:00 pm. The MAR reflected it was administered at 3:55 pm. The inconsistencies were reviewed on 10/07/25 at 2:28 pm with Staff 17 (Health Services Director). She indicated she was recently hired and was not aware of a process to review the Controlled Substance Drug Disposition logs for accuracy. Comparison of the medication tablet bottle to the disposition log showed the amount of medication left was reflected accurately on the log. The need to ensure the facility had an effective system for tracking controlled substances was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator) on 10/07/25 and on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am with Staff 1, Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations). They acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0055 (2) Systems: Medication Administration (2) MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION. An accurate Medication Administration Record (MAR) must be kept of all medications, including over-the-counter medications that are ordered by a legally recognized prescriber and are administered by the facility.(a) Documentation of the MAR must be completed using one of the following processes. An alternative process may be used only with a written exception from the Department.(A) The MAR may be signed as the medications are set-up or poured. Medications must not be set-up in advance for more than one administration time. If a medicine cup or other individual container is used to set-up the medications, it must be placed in a closed compartment labeled with the resident's name. Changes to the MAR that occur after the medication is delivered, must be documented by the same staff person who administered the medication.(B) The facility may choose to sign the MAR after the medication is administered to a specific resident and prior to the next resident-specific medication or treatment.(b) MEDICATION RECORD. At minimum, the medication record for each resident that the facility administers medications to, must include:(A) Current month, day and year.(B) Name of medications, reason for use, dosage, route and date and time given.(C) Any medication specific instructions, if applicable (e.g., significant side effects, time sensitive dosage, when to call the prescriber or nurse).(D) Resident allergies and sensitivities, if any.(E) Resident specific parameters and instructions for p.r.n. medications.(F) Initials of the person administering the medication. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an accurate MAR was kept for all medications that were ordered by a legally recognized provider and administered by the facility for 3 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1, 2 and 4) whose MARs were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 4 moved into the community in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. Resident 4’s 09/01/25 through 10/06/25 MARs were reviewed and the following orders were noted: * Acetaminophen 650 mg suppository, one every six hours PRN (for moderate pain); * Acetaminophen 650 mg suppository, one every six hours PRN (for mild pain or fevers); and * Acetaminophen 325 mg tablet, two tablets every six hours PRN (for mild to moderate musculoskeletal pain, headache or fever above 100 degrees F). The MAR did not indicate resident specific parameters and instructions for the PRN Acetaminophen suppository and tablets including the sequential order for administration of the medications which were prescribed for the same diagnoses. On 10/10/25 at 10:26 am, the need to ensure MARs included resident specific parameters and instructions for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC) and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations). They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. Resident 2's MARs, dated 09/01/25 through 10/09/25 were reviewed. a. Resident 2 had two PRN medications for pain with conflicting parameters regarding sequential order of administration: * Acetaminophen 325 mg give 2 tablets every four hours PRN mild pain; and * Oxycodone 5 mg give 0.5 tablet PRN every four hours. “Additional Physician Directions: Take 0.5 tablet (one half) to 1 (one whole tablet) every 4 hours PRN for severe pain. Additional notes: give another 0.5mg if pain is severe.” According to the 09/29/25 through 10/09/25 MAR, when both acetaminophen and oxycodone were prescribed, the resident was administered acetaminophen seven times and oxycodone 10 times. b. Resident 2 had four PRN medications for constipation with conflicting parameters regarding sequential order of administration: * Lactulose give 30 ml once daily PRN constipation or if resident eats gluten with no BM (bowel movement) in 24 hours; * Milk of magnesia give 30 ML once a day if no BM in 3 days or if pt (patient) reports constipation; * Polyethylene glycol give once a day as needed *start 72 hours after no BM; and * Senna-Time 8.6 mg give 2 tablets once a day as needed for constipation. Resident 2 had been administered lactulose one time in September and one time in October. Milk of magnesia was administered two times in October. Polyethylene glycol and senna-time had not been administered. During an interview on 10/08/25 at 1:30 pm, Staff 4 (MT) acknowledged the lack of instructions for which medication to take first for pain and/or constipation. “I use my best judgement” regarding which PRN medication she provided for constipation. “If [s/he] is super impacted I will use the milk of magnesia over polyethylene glycol.” The need to ensure medications on the MARs included reason for use, and resident-specific parameters for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 1 moved into the community in 05/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s MAR dated 08/01/25 - 10/06/25, corresponding physician orders, and progress notes dated 07/11/25 through 10/05/25 were reviewed. The following was identified: Resident 1 had orders for Lorazepam 0.5 mg sublingual tablet: give two tablets as needed for mild agitation/ anxiety/ dyspnea. Progress notes documented administration of the Lorazepam on five occasions in August and once in September, but these administrations were not on the MAR. The need to ensure residents’ MARs were accurate was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:00 am. They acknowledged the findings.

This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 6 moved into the community in 09/2025 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s dementia. Resident 6's MARs, dated 01/08/26 through 02/17/26, were reviewed. a. The resident had a new physician’s order on 01/29/26 for routine acetaminophen 500 mg two tablets at 8:00 pm and acetaminophen 500 mg two tablets PRN mild fever/pain. Parameters for both acetaminophen medications included the instruction, “No more than 3000 mg in 24 hours.” The parameters for both of the new medications were not transcribed on the MAR. The MAR also lacked parameters for the PRN acetaminophen tablet to be used for “mild fever/pain.” b. Resident 6 had three PRN medications for pain with no sequential order of administration: * Acetaminophen 500 mg tablets, give two tablets three times a day PRN pain or fever, was discontinued on 01/29/26, and the order was changed from three times to twice a day PRN pain; * Acetaminophen 650 mg suppository, give one suppository every six hours PRN pain/fever; and * Oxycodone 5 mg give one tablet every two hours PRN pain. According to the 01/08/26 through 02/17/26 MAR, the resident was administered acetaminophen tablets two times and oxycodone eight times. c. Resident 6 had two PRN medications for constipation with no sequential order of administration: * Bisacodyl 10 mg suppository once a day PRN constipation; and * Senna-Time 8.6 mg give two tablets once a day as needed for constipation. Resident 6 had not been administered either PRN medication for constipation from 01/08/26 through 02/17/26. During an interview on 02/18/26 at 2:50 pm, Staff 4 (MT) acknowledged the lack of instructions for which medication to take first for pain and constipation. She stated, “It depends on the situation. If [Resident 6] can tell me [his/her] head or leg hurts, I’ll try Tylenol (Acetaminophen) first. But if [s/he] was screaming in pain then I’ll go straight to oxycodone.” Staff 4 indicated that for constipation, the suppository was for “end of life” and would only give if hospice “told me to.” She confirmed the instructions to call hospice prior to administering the bisacodyl suppository for constipation were not on the MAR. The need to ensure medications on the MARs included instructions and resident-specific parameters for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 22 (ED) and Staff 23 (Administrator) on 02/19/26 at 4:15 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 5’s 01/08/26 through 02/17/26 MARs were reviewed and the following orders were noted: * Acetaminophen 325 mg give one tablet by mouth every six hours as needed; * Morphine sulfate 15 mg give half- tablet (7.5 mg) by mouth every two hours as needed for pain or shortness of breath; and * Oxycodone HCL oral tablet 5mg give one tablet by mouth every four hours as needed. The MAR did not indicate resident-specific parameters and instructions for the PRN pain medications including the sequential order for administration of the three medications which were prescribed for the same diagnoses. During an interview on 02/18/26 at 11:00 am, Staff 4 (MT) acknowledged the lack of clear instructions for which medication to take first if Resident 5 had pain. On 02/19/26 at 11:00 am, the need to ensure MARs included resident-specific parameters and instructions for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 23 (Administrator). She acknowledged the findings.

This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 10 moved into the community in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. Resident 10's MARs, dated 04/06/26 through 04/16/26, were reviewed. a. Resident 10 had two PRN medications for pain with no sequential order of administration: * Acetaminophen 325 mg tablets, give 2 tablets by mouth every six hours as needed for pain or fever; and * Morphine 15 mg tablet, give 1 tablet by mouth every four hours as needed for pain or shortness of breath. Resident 10 had not been administered any PRN medications for pain from 04/06/26 through 04/16/26. b. Resident 10 also had three PRN medications for agitation and/or anxiety with no sequential order of administration: * Haloperidol lactate oral concentrate, 2 mg/ML, 1 milliliter by mouth every four hours for agitation; * Lorazepam, 0.5 mg tablet, give 1 tablet by mouth every four hours as needed for anxiety, or restlessness or agitation; and * Hydroxyzine, 25 mg, 1 capsule by mouth as needed two times per day for anxiety. Resident 10 had not been administered any of the PRN medications for agitation/anxiety from 04/06/26 through 04/16/26. During an interview on 04/16/26 at 11:51 pm, Witness 3 (Agency MT) acknowledged the lack of instructions for which medication to take first for pain and agitation. When asked how she would know which medication to use first, she stated, “I would not, to be honest.” Regarding the pain medication, she stated “I always know hospice wants you to try Tylenol first.” This surveyor and Witness 3 reviewed the electronic MAR and confirmed it did not indicate the sequential order PRN medications should be administered. The need to ensure medications on the MARs included instructions and resident-specific parameters for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 23 (Administrator) on 04/16/26 at 2:45 pm. She acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 9 moved into the community in 08/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and left femur fracture. Resident 9's MARs, dated 04/06/26 through 04/16/26, were reviewed. The MAR indicated that staff were to administer Tylenol every six hours as needed for mild pain and oxycodone every two hours as needed for severe pain. However, there were no clear parameters defining what constituted mild pain versus severe pain for the resident. Oxycodone was administered 13 times and Tylenol was administered five times between 04/06/26 and 04/16/26. During an interview on 04/16/26 at 11:57 am, Staff 5 (CG/MT) acknowledged the lack of clear parameters for which medication to administer first if Resident 9 had pain. The need to ensure medications on the MARs included instructions and resident-specific parameters for PRN medications was discussed with Staff 23 (Administrator) and Staff 31 (Charge Nurse) on 04/16/26 at 1:55 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

The following was identified: The resident had orders for PRN two Lorazepam 0.5 mg sublingual tablets every two hours for mild agitation/ anxiety/ dyspnea. The MAR indicated the resident received the medication 25 times between 08/01/25 and 10/06/25. The resident’s record lacked documented evidence non-pharmaceutical interventions were attempted and/ or documented as ineffective for 23 of the 25 administrations. The record also lacked instruction to staff on when to contact a health professional regarding side effects. For four of the six Lorazepam administrations not recorded on the MAR, there was no documented evidence staff attempted non-pharmaceutical interventions and/ or documented them as ineffective prior to administering the medication. On 10/07/25 at 11:23 am, Staff 3 (MT) confirmed there was no information on the MAR as to non-pharmaceutical interventions staff should attempt prior to administering the Lorazepam, nor was there information regarding how or when to contact the prescriber if the resident experienced adverse side effects. The need to ensure PRN medications administered to treat a resident’s behavior had resident specific parameters and non-pharmacological interventions were documented as attempted with ineffective results prior to the administration of PRN psychotropics was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:00 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 09/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. Review of the resident's MAR dated 09/01/25 through 10/09/25, current physician orders, and progress notes identified the following: The resident had orders for Lorazepam 0.5 mg every eight hours as needed for anxiety or agitation. The MAR indicated the resident received the medication 11 times between 09/01/25 and 10/08/25. The MAR did not contain resident-specific parameters for staff describing how the resident expressed anxiety or agitation and there was no documented evidence that non-pharmacological interventions had been tried first with ineffective results. Additionally, the record lacked instruction to staff on when to contact a health professional regarding side effects. During an interview on 10/07/25 at 12:25 pm, Staff 4 (MT) acknowledged the MAR lacked non-pharmacological interventions to be attempted prior to administration of the PRN lorazepam. She also confirmed there were no instructions on when to call if the resident experienced side effects from the lorazepam. The need to ensure medications given to treat a resident's behavior had resident-specific parameters, non-pharmacological interventions were attempted and documented as ineffective prior to the administration for psychotropic medications, and when to contact the prescriber if the resident experienced adverse side effects was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (RCC), and Staff 20 (Regional Director of Operations) on 10/10/25 at 11:45 am. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 09/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and depression. Review of the resident's MAR dated 09/01/25 through 10/13/25, current physician orders, and progress notes identified the following: Risperidone 0.5 mg every twelve hours as needed for agitation. The risperidone PRN dose was administered on 09/25/25, 9/28/25 and 10/06/25. The MAR did not contain resident-specific parameters for staff describing how the resident expressed agitation and there was no documented evidence non-pharmacological interventions had been tried first with ineffective results. The need to ensure medications given to treat a resident's behavior had resident-specific parameters and non-pharmacological interventions were attempted and documented as ineffective prior to the administration for psychotropic medications was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (RCC) on 10/09/25 at 11:31 am. They acknowledged the findings.
