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 immediately report abuse relating to resident- to-resident altercations, ensure incidents including injuries of unknown cause were immediately investigated to rule out abuse or suspected abuse, and report to the local Seniors and People with Disabilities (SPD) office when abuse could not be reasonably ruled out for 4 of 4 sampled residents (#s 2, 4, 5, and 6) who had documented incidents. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 5 moved into the community in 02/2022 with diagnoses including bipolar disorder and traumatic brain injury.

(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 service plans were updated quarterly and with significant changes of condition, were reflective of residents' needs, provided clear direction to staff regarding the delivery of services, and were implemented for 1 of 2 sampled residents (#8) whose service plans were reviewed. This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 8 moved into the facility in 01/2023 with diagnoses including Type 1 diabetes and right below-the-knee amputation. Upon entering the facility on 12/01/25, the current service plan available to staff was dated 07/16/25. At 3:24 pm on 12/01/25, Staff 1 (Executive Director) confirmed that this was the most recent service plan. The service plan had not been updated quarterly or with the resident’s significant change of condition which occurred on 11/19/25. On 12/02/25, Staff 1 provided an updated copy of the resident’s service plan, now available to staff, to review. The resident's current service plan available to staff, and progress notes and temporary service plans dated 09/15/25 through 12/01/25 were reviewed. Interviews with staff and the resident were conducted, and the resident was observed. The resident's service plan was not reflective of current needs, was not implemented, and/or did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas: * Difficulty with hearing; * Name (service plan referred to the resident using an incorrect name multiple times); * Shower preference time of day; * Frequency of assistance needed for grooming tasks, including shaving and teeth brushing; * Location of meals; * Meals cut up into bite sized pieces; * As-needed nutritional supplement availability; * Incontinence care assistance and location; * Number of staff assisting with transfers; * Side of amputated limb; * Assistance to provide when donning or doffing prosthesis, including presence of sock underneath; * Use of straw with drinks; * Use of blanket to prop left side when seated; and * Care of wheelchair, including cleaning and lack of arm and leg rests on wheelchair. The need to ensure service plans were updated, reflective, implemented, and provided clear direction to staff was reviewed with Staff 1 and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) at 8:30 am on 12/03/25. They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

The facility immediately reviewed Resident #8’s service plan upon identification of the deficiencies. Errors and omissions were corrected, and the service plan was updated to reflect the resident’s current needs, preferences, diagnoses, and required assistance. The updated service plan was made available to staff. To prevent reoccurrence, the Facility RN will collaborate with the licensed nurse to ensure service plans are reviewed and updated at least quarterly and with any significant change in condition. Staff will be trained of the importance of following the most current service plan and documenting changes in resident needs. The Facility RN or licensed nurse will monitor compliance by completing three random service plan audits per week until compliance is met to ensure service plans are accurate, current, implemented, and provide clear direction to staff. Any identified issues will be corrected promptly. Monitoring will continue as needed to support ongoing compliance.

OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING. The facility must have written policies to ensure a resident monitoring and reporting system is implemented 24-hours a day. The policies must specify staff responsibilities and identify criteria for notifying the administrator, registered nurse, or healthcare provider. The facility must: (a) Monitor each resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs and service plan; (b) Train staff to identify changes in the resident's physical, emotional and mental functioning and document and report on the resident's changes of condition; (c) Have a reporting protocol with access to a designated staff person, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, who can determine if a change in the resident's condition requires further action; and (d) Provide written communication of a resident's change of condition, and any required interventions, for caregivers on each shift. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to determine resident-specific interventions for residents following a change of condition, communicate those actions or interventions to staff on each shift, monitor each resident consistent with their evaluated needs, and/or monitor and document weekly progress until the condition resolved for 5 of 5 sampled residents (#s 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) who experienced changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 5 moved into the community in 02/2022 with diagnoses including bipolar disorder and traumatic brain injury. The resident’s progress notes dated 04/01/25 through 07/11/25, corresponding temporary service plans, and documented weights from 01/14/25 through 07/03/25 were reviewed, and interviews with staff were conducted. a. Progress notes documented the following resident-to-resident altercations: * 04/10/25 – “Resident bullying another resident by calling them [two expletives and a pejorative].” * 04/23/25 – An unsampled resident hit Resident 5 on the hand, who then hit the unsampled resident on the head. There was no documented evidence the facility determined and documented actions or interventions and monitored the resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs after the altercations. b. During the acuity interview on 07/14/25 the resident was identified as having a recent significant weight loss. A significant change of condition assessment for severe weight loss, dated 07/15/25, documented “[Resident] has been on meal monitoring…” Staff 2 (Director of Nursing) reported on 07/15/25 that the resident had been on meal monitoring since 07/02/25 and had been eating “100% of lunch and dinners.” Meal documentation logs from 07/02/25 through 07/15/25 documented multiple refusals of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. Staff 2 reported that she had not been monitoring the meal logs, and that there should have been a notification on the computer for staff to alert her when the resident wasn’t eating. There was no documented evidence the facility had monitored the resident consistent with his/her evaluated needs. The need to ensure the facility determined and documented what resident-specific action or interventions were needed for changes of condition, including resident-to-resident altercations, and monitored the resident at least weekly according to their evaluated needs through resolution, was Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2, Staff 3 (RN), and Staff 4 (Lead RCC) on 07/16/25 at 10:15 am. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 6 moved into the facility in 10/2023 with diagnoses including schizophrenia, auditory hallucinations, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The resident’s record was reviewed, including the resident’s current service plan, dated 04/30/25, behavioral support plan, dated 04/29/25, temporary service plans, dated 05/02/25 through 07/10/25, progress notes, dated 04/15/25 through 07/14/25, side rail assessment, dated 05/13/25, and outside provider documentation. Interviews with staff were conducted, and the following was identified: * 04/22/25: New hospital bed; * 04/23/25: Resident to resident verbal altercation; * 04/30/25: Change in toileting behaviors and increased assistance required; * 05/13/25: New bilateral side rails; * 05/20/25: Open sore on left shin; and * 06/11/25: Graduated from hospice services and no longer had additional outside support. There was no documented evidence the facility determined resident-specific interventions, communicated the determined actions or interventions to staff on each shift, and/or monitored each change of condition with weekly progress noted through resolution, for the above noted changes of condition. The need to ensure each change of condition was identified, had documentation of resident specific interventions, the determined interventions were communicated to staff on each shift and were monitored weekly through resolution, was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) on 07/17/25 at 1:11 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 3 moved into the facility in 04/2025 with diagnosis including type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension. The resident’s record was reviewed, including the resident’s current service plan, dated 05/11/25, behavioral support plan, dated 05/05/25, temporary service plans, dated 04/01/25 through 07/11/25, progress notes, dated from 04/01/25 through 07/14/24, and weight records, dated 04/01/25 through 06/24/25. Interviews with staff were conducted, and the following was identified: Weight record review showed the following: * 04/01/25 – 193 pounds (admission); * 05/09/25 – 184.6 pounds; and * 06/24/25 – 179 pounds. There was no documented evidence an evaluation of the resident’s status was conducted, any interventions determined, interventions communicated to staff on each shift, or that the resident was monitored following the weight loss trend. On 07/16/25 at 2:21 pm, the resident’s weight record was reviewed with Staff 3 (RN). When asked who was responsible for monitoring the resident’s weight, she reported no one was assigned to review or monitor them. The need to ensure each change of condition was identified, had documentation of resident-specific interventions, the determined interventions were communicated to staff on each shift and were monitored weekly through resolution was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) on 07/16/25 at 1:45 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 4. Resident 2 moved into the facility in 08/2023 with diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder. The resident’s progress notes, dated 04/01/25 through 07/14/25, a temporary service plan, dated 06/20/25, MARs, dated 06/01/25 through 07/14/25, and outside provider notes, dated 04/01/25 through 05/08/25, were reviewed, and staff were interviewed. Resident 2 experienced the following changes of condition: * 05/01/25: Resident-to-resident altercation which resulted in Resident 2 falling out of his/her wheelchair; * Potential skin injuries related to fall on 05/01/25; * Two pressure wounds located on buttocks; and * 06/07/25: Red rash identified in the fold of the resident's skin. There was no documented evidence the facility determined actions or interventions for the changes of condition, communicated those actions or interventions to staff on each shift, or monitored with weekly progress noted through resolution. The need to determine actions or interventions for the resident’s changes of condition, communicate the determined actions or interventions to staff on each shift, and monitor with weekly progress noted through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 3 (RN), and Staff 4 (Lead RCC) on 07/15/25 at 2:44 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 5. Resident 4 moved into the facility in 06/2024 with diagnoses including a traumatic brain injury. The resident's progress notes, dated 04/14/25 through 07/13/25, were reviewed and staff were interviewed. The following changes of condition were noted: * 05/01/25: Resident-to-resident altercation; * 05/20/25: Documentation of the resident "bullying" another resident; and * Multiple entries of the resident refusing medications that treated high cholesterol, Korsakoff Syndrome (neurological disorder that affects memory), and aggression. There was no documented evidence the facility determined actions or interventions for the changes of condition, communicated those actions or interventions to staff on each shift, or monitored with weekly progress noted through resolution. The need to determine actions or interventions for the resident’s changes of condition, communicate the determined actions or interventions to staff on each shift, and monitor with weekly progress noted through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) on 07/17/25 at 2:26 pm.

This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure a timely RN assessment was completed for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#5) who experienced a significant change of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 5 moved into the community in 02/2022 with diagnoses including bipolar disorder and traumatic brain injury. During the acuity interview on 07/14/25 the resident was identified as having a recent severe weight loss. The resident's monthly weights dated 01/14/25 through 07/03/25 were reviewed, observations were made, and interviews with staff were conducted during the survey. The resident's weights were recorded as follows: * 01/14/25 – 114.2 pounds; * 06/13/25 – 111.6 pounds; and * 07/03/25 – 104.0 pounds. On 07/15/25 the surveyor requested a current weight for Resident 5. The resident weighed 105.8 on 07/15/25. From 06/13/25 to 07/03/25 the resident lost 7.6 pounds, or 6.8% of his/her body weight in 20 days, which constituted a severe weight loss that required an RN assessment.

Plan of Correction for C0290 – OAR 411-054-0045(2): On- and Off-Site Health Services (Page 75) Deficiency Summary: The facility failed to ensure that staff were informed of new interventions and that the service plans were updated following the provision of on-site health services for 2 of 3 sampled residents. Recommendations from outside providers, including wound care and therapy services, were not integrated into the service plans or communicated to direct care staff. 1. Immediate Correction (Completed by): A full chart review was conducted for all residents currently receiving home health or hospice services. Identified missing or outdated outside provider recommendations were reviewed by the Director of Nursing (DON) and Resident Care Coordinators (RCCs) and promptly integrated into service plans. All affected residents were reassessed to confirm that care was being provided according to current clinical recommendations. Providers were contacted to re-send documentation where gaps existed. Staff were updated on current interventions during a scheduled huddle and documentation was verified. 2. Implementation of Third-Check Protocol (Effective 7/22/25): A Third-Check Protocol has been implemented to ensure proper integration of outside provider recommendations into resident care. Process: Upon receipt of outside provider documentation (e.g., wound care, PT/OT/ST, hospice, etc.), the RCC or assigned Licensed Nurse must perform a three-point verification (third check): Review the provider’s written documentation. Confirm service plan is updated to reflect the recommendation. Verify the intervention is documented on the appropriate task sheet or MAR (if applicable). 4.Responsible party. Director of Nursing (DON): Oversees the third-check process and reviews audit results weekly. Ensures the nursing team implements outside provider recommendations appropriately and promptly. Provides coaching or disciplinary follow-up for staff failing to comply with the protocol. Works with RCCs to revise workflows and documentation systems for sustainability.

Tag C0295 – OAR 411-054-0050(1–5): Infection Prevention & Control (page 83) During the survey conducted on 07/15/25, the facility was found to be out of compliance with infection prevention and control standards required under OAR 411-054-0050. The following issues were identified: Meal Service Hygiene Issues: Staff were observed serving resident meals without wearing protective barriers (such as aprons) over potentially contaminated clothing. This posed a risk for cross-contamination during food service and preparation in the kitchen. Inadequate Use of Universal Precautions During Care: A caregiver failed to change gloves after handling a soiled brief and wiping fecal matter during incontinence care. The same gloves were then used to touch clean supplies and the resident’s blanket. Additionally, improper use of double-gloving was observed, where only the outer glove was removed before applying barrier cream. These findings indicate that the facility failed to consistently follow universal precautions and maintain effective infection control practices in both dining and resident care areas. Leadership acknowledged these concerns during the exit interviews. Completion Date: 1. Immediate Corrective Action Taken As of (7/22/25 ), all direct care staff were immediately re-educated on proper PPE use, including wearing clean protective covering (gown or apron) over clothing during food service.

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.

The resident's MARs, dated 06/01/25 through 07/14/25, physician orders, and progress notes, dated 04/14/25 through 07/13/25, were reviewed. The following inaccuracies were noted: a. Staff signed the MAR as a medication was administered but documented in a progress note the resident had refused to take the medication. b. Per interview with Staff 1 (ED) on 07/17/25 at 2:26 pm, the facility directed staff to obtain the initials of two staff members when administering certain medications. This was implemented relating to the verification of the resident's refusals of medications. There were 137 times out of 181 total entries lacking the initials of the second staff member. c. The facility directed staff to preform safety checks on Resident 4 at 10:00 am, 1:00 pm, 4:00 pm, 7:00 pm, and 10:00 pm. During those safety checks, staff were to answer "yes" or "no" if the resident was out of the facility or if s/he was sleeping. Staff left the answers blank eight times. d. Staff were directed to document the resident's vitals once a month. There were blanks on 06/04/25 and 07/01/25 with no explanation from staff of why the vitals were not obtained. e. The MAR directed staff to obtain Resident 4's weight twice weekly. There was a space for staff to initial that the weight was obtained and a space for staff to document the resident's weight. Although staff did initial four times confirming the weight had been obtained, there was no weight documented. Additionally, there were seven times when staff documented that the weight was held, or not obtained, but there was no documentation as to the reason why Resident 4 was not weighed. The need to ensure residents’ MARs were accurate was discussed with Staff 1 and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) on 07/17/25. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 6 moved into the facility in 10/2023 with diagnoses including schizophrenia and auditory hallucinations. The resident’s physician orders, dated 07/08/25, and MARs, dated 06/14/25 through 07/14/25, were reviewed, and interviews with staff were conducted. The following was identified: The MAR lacked a reason for use for the following medications: * Candesartan 16mg tab; and * Metoprolol succinate XL 25 mg. On 07/17/25 at 12:09 pm, Staff 3 (RN) confirmed the lack of reason for use for the above medications. The need to ensure each medication had a reason for use documented was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) on 07/17/25 at 1:11 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

Plan of Correction – C0310: Medication Administration (page 96) Summary of Findings: During the survey, it was found that the facility failed to maintain accurate Medication Administration Records (MARs) for two residents (#4 and #6). For Resident 4, there were multiple discrepancies including: medication refusals incorrectly signed as administered, missing second staff initials for medications requiring dual verification, incomplete safety check documentation, missing vital sign records, and inconsistent weight documentation. For Resident 6, MARs lacked required “reason for use” for prescribed medications. These lapses indicate a breakdown in MAR accuracy and medication administration protocols. Corrective Actions Taken: 1.Immediate Staff Re-Education: All med techs and licensed nursing staff were immediately re-educated on MAR documentation requirements, including: Documenting medication refusals accurately. Ensuring that two staff initials are present when dual signature verification is required. Recording vital signs and weights as ordered, with explanations if skipped. Including the reason for use for all prescribed medications on the MAR. Re-education completed by 07/24/25. 2. Resident Record Updates: For Resident 4: All MAR entries for June–July were audited. Missing documentation, reasons for refusal, and required follow-ups were corrected. Vitals and weight documentation protocols reinforced. For Resident 6: MARs were updated to include the reasons for use for Candesartan and Metoprolol as per the physician’s intent. Systemic Measures Implemented: 1. MAR Documentation Standardization: Standard operating procedure updated to require all MARs to be reviewed for: Complete medication details (including reason for use). Proper initialing and documentation after administration. Correct documentation of refusals and explanations for missed entries (e.g., weights or vitals). 2. Daily MAR Audit Process: RCCs or designee will conduct daily report audits of MARs to ensure: No missing initials or documentation errors. Proper entries of all clinical and safety protocols (vitals, weights, refusals, etc.). Findings will be reviewed by the DON or designated nurse to address trends or retraining needs.

OAR 411-054-0070 (1) Staffing Requirements and Training: Staffing (Amended 6/9/21)(1) STAFFING REQUIREMENTS. Facilities must have qualified awake direct care staff, sufficient in number to meet the 24-hour scheduled and unscheduled needs of each resident. Direct care staff provide services for residents that include assistance with activities of daily living, medication administration, resident-focused activities, supervision, and support.(a) If a facility employs universal workers whose duties include other tasks (e.g., housekeeping, laundry, food service), in addition to direct resident care, staffing must be increased to maintain adequate resident care and services.(b) Prior to providing care and services to residents, direct care staff must be trained as required in sections (2) - (4) of this rule.(c) The following facility employees are ancillary to the caregiver requirements in this section:(A) Individuals whose duties are exclusively housekeeping, building maintenance, clerical, administrative, or food preparation.(B) Licensed nurses who provide services as specified in OAR 411-054-0045 (Resident Health Services).(C) Administrators.(d) The Department retains the right to require minimum staffing standards based on acuity, complaint investigation or survey inspection.(e) Based on resident acuity and facility structural design there must be adequate direct care staff present at all times, to meet the fire safety evacuation standards as required by the fire authority or the Department.(f) The licensee is responsible for assuring that staffing is increased to compensate for the evaluated care and service needs of residents at move-in and for the changing physical or mental needs of the residents.(g) A minimum of two direct care staff must be scheduled and available at all times whenever a resident requires the assistance of two direct care staff for scheduled and unscheduled needs.(h) In facilities where residents are hosed in two or more detached buildings, or if a building has distinct and segregated areas, a designated caregiver must be awake and available in each building and each segregated area at all times.(i) Facilities must have a written, defined system to determine appropriate numbers of direct care staff and general staffing based on resident acuity and service needs. Such systems may be either manual or electronic.(A) Guidelines for systems must also consider physical elements of a building, use of technology if applicable and staff experience.(B) Facilities must be able to demonstrate how their staffing systems work. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to have a sufficient number of care staff to meet the minimum required staffing standards based on the acuity and needs of each resident. Findings include, but are not limited to: During the acuity interview on 07/14/25, it was identified the facility had three different buildings and was home to 67 residents. The facility’s posted staffing plan indicated the facility staffing levels were: * Bachelor Building: Day shift – six care staff; * Bachelor Building: Night shift – four care staff; * Broken Top Building: Day shift – six care staff; * Broken Top Building: Night shift – three care staff; * Washington Building: Day shift – six care staff; and * Washington Building: Night shift – four care staff. The facility’s staffing schedule was reviewed on 07/16/25 for the week of 07/07/25 through 07/13/25. The facility had two shifts during 24 hours; 6:00 am to 6:30 pm and 6:30 pm to 6:00 am, thus 42 shifts were reviewed. Thirteen out of those 42 shifts, or 30.95%, were not staffed according to the facility’s posted staffing plan. On 07/17/25 at 2:26 pm, the need to ensure the facility had a sufficient number of care staff to meet the minimum required staffing standards based on the acuity and needs of each resident was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator). They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

Plan of Correction – C0360: Staffing Requirements (page 103) Summary of Findings: During the survey, it was determined that the facility did not consistently staff each building according to the posted staffing plan. The facility operates three buildings (Bachelor, Broken Top, and Washington), serving 67 residents. A review of staffing schedules from 07/07/25 through 07/13/25 showed that 13 of the 42 reviewed shifts (30.95%) were under-staffed compared to the posted staffing plan. This failure does not meet OAR 411-054-0070 requirements for ensuring sufficient, qualified, and awake direct care staff based on resident acuity and structural layout. Corrective Actions Taken: 1. Immediate Staffing Adjustment: Staffing was immediately adjusted to ensure all three buildings are staffed according to the posted plan at all times. Float staff and on-call team members were assigned to fill schedule gaps starting (7/22/25). Systemic Measures Implemented: DON and Administrator now perform a monthly acuity-based staffing review to match staffing levels with residents' changing physical, behavioral, and clinical needs. Adjustments to staffing plans are made based on the acuity assessment outcomes. Ongoing Monitoring: Daily Monitoring: The Administrator and RCCs will conduct daily reviews of schedules to ensure full shift coverage and verify staffing compliance by building.

They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

Plan of Correction – C0362: Acuity-Based Staffing Tool (ABST) (Page 109) Summary of Findings: During the survey, it was identified that the facility failed to maintain an accurate and individualized Acuity-Based Staffing Tool (ABST) that captured all required care elements being provided to residents as outlined in their service plans. In a sample of five residents, three (Residents #2, #3, and #4) had ABST documentation that did not accurately reflect the actual care services provided, such as behavioral monitoring, non-drug interventions, treatments, cueing, bathing assistance, and response to call lights. This inconsistency violates OAR 411-054-0037 (1)(b–g), which requires individualized, up-to-date staffing tools based on actual resident care needs. Corrective Actions Taken: Immediate ABST Audit and Revision: The ABSTs for all residents, beginning with Residents #2, #3, and #4, were reviewed and revised by the Administrator to accurately reflect current care elements being provided. Service plans and behavior support plans were cross-referenced to ensure complete alignment with the ABST. Systemic Changes Implemented: The Administrator will coordinate all updates related to service plans, including changes in condition, new skin concerns, behavioral changes, and other relevant clinical information. This coordination will occur in collaboration with: •Resident Care Coordinators (RCCs) •Licensed Nurses •Director of Nursing (DON) •Behavioral Support Specialist As changes occur, the Administrator will ensure that the ABST (Assessment-Based Service Tool) is updated promptly to reflect the current needs of the resident. This collaborative approach ensures accuracy, consistency, and timely updates to support individualized resident care.

Facilities must complete or update and review the ABST evaluation for each resident according to the following schedule. (a) Before a resident moves in. (b) Whenever there is a significant change of condition as defined in OAR 411-054-0040(1)(b). (c) No less than quarterly at the same time the resident’s service plan is updated as required by OAR 411-054-0034. (5) DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN UPDATED POSTED STAFFING PLAN. Each facility should use the results of an ABST to develop and routinely update the facility’s posted staffing plan. The staffing plan must outline the staffing numbers required to meet the scheduled and unscheduled needs of all residents in the facility, for each shift. The ABST and staffing plan must be reviewed at the frequency required in paragraph (4) of this rule. The facility must review the following and ensure accuracy between the posted staffing plan and ABST: (a) The total ABST care time required for the individual care elements as referenced in paragraph (3) of this rule.

Staffing required by a Specific Needs Contract (Contract), as described in OAR chapter 411, division 027, must be included in a facility’s ABST. (a) If all residents within the facility are receiving service through a Contract: (A) The facility’s staffing plan must include the number of staff required by the Contract and additional staff time, if required to meet the scheduled and unscheduled needs of the residents. (B) If the ABST staffing analysis indicates numbers higher than the Contract, the facility must staff to the numbers indicated by the ABST. (b) If certain residents within the facility are served under Contract, and other residents are not served by a Contract: (A) The facility must maintain a posted staffing plan that includes the staffing required for residents served by the Contract as well as the staffing required for residents not served by the Contract. (B) The facility must prepare two distinct ABST reports: one for residents served by the Contract and the other for residents not served by the Contract. (C) If the ABST indicates higher staffing numbers than the Contract for residents who are served by the Contract, the facility must staff to numbers indicated by the ABST. (c) If the facility has any residents funded by an exceptional payment, as provided in OAR 411-027-0050, that must be included in the ABST and the facility must staff to the greater of the exception or the ABST. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure the acuity-based staffing tool (ABST) evaluation was updated and reviewed quarterly, at the same time as the service plan update, and/or with a significant change of condition for 1 of 2 sampled residents (#8), failed to use the results of the ABST to develop and routinely update the facility’s staffing plan, and failed to ensure documentation of consistently staffing to meet or exceed the posted staffing plan. Findings include, but are not limited to: a. Resident 8 moved into the facility in 01/2023 with diagnoses including Type 1 diabetes and right below-the-knee amputation. The resident experienced a significant change of condition on 11/19/25 when s/he returned to the facility after being at a hospital and a skilled nursing facility for approximately six weeks. The resident’s ABST was last updated on 08/07/25. b. During the acuity interview on 12/01/25, it was identified the facility had three different buildings and was home to 63 residents. Staff 1 (Executive Director) stated and documented on the ABST entrance questionnaire that the facility staffed a day shift and a night shift, with care staff working 12-hour shifts from either 6:00 am to 6:30 pm or 6:00 pm to 6:30 am. The facility’s ABST was divided into three shifts, day, swing, and night. During an interview with Staff 1 on 12/01/25, at 4:09 pm, she stated that she was not currently using the ABST to develop or update the facility’s posted staffing plans, as the three shifts shown on the ABST did not align with the two shifts scheduled by the facility. She stated she staffed based on the minimum specific needs contract staffing requirements. She acknowledged that this did not account for situations where resident acuity may require increased staffing levels above the specific needs contract minimums. She acknowledged that the Oregon Administrative Rules stated facilities must use the ABST, in addition to the specific needs contract requirements, to determine minimum staffing requirements. c. Staff 1 stated the facility currently had residents in three buildings: Bachelor, Broken Top, and Washington. The facility’s posted staffing plan indicated the facility staffing levels for 11/20/25 through 11/30/25 were: * Bachelor Building: Day shift – six care staff; * Bachelor Building: Night shift – four care staff; * Broken Top Building: Day shift – six care staff; * Broken Top Building: Night shift – four care staff; * Washington Building: Day shift – six care staff; and * Washington Building: Night shift – four care staff. The facility’s staffing schedule dated 11/20/25 through 11/30/25 was reviewed, and Staff 7 (Assistant Administrator) confirmed on 12/02/25 that the schedule included all staff, including agency staff, who had worked during that time period. Of the 66 shifts reviewed, 14 shifts, or 21%, were not scheduled to meet or exceed the facility’s posted staffing plan. The need to ensure residents’ ABST evaluations were updated at least quarterly and with significant changes of condition, the ABST was used to develop and update the posted staffing plan, and that the facility ensured consistent staffing to meet or exceed the posted staffing plan was discussed with Staff 1 and Staff 7 on 12/03/25 at 8:30 am. They acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

The facility immediately updated the Acuity-Based Staffing Tool (ABST) to reflect the facility’s current 12-hour staffing shifts. The ABST for Resident #8 was reviewed and updated to reflect the resident’s current condition following the significant change on 11/19/25. To prevent reoccurrence, the Administrator will coordinate with licensed nursing staff to ensure the ABST is reviewed and updated at least quarterly, at the same time as service plan updates, and with any significant change in resident condition. The facility will use the ABST, in addition to specific needs contract requirements, to develop and update the posted staffing plan. Staffing assignments will be adjusted as needed to meet identified acuity needs. The Administrator or designee will monitor compliance by reviewing ABST updates, posted staffing plans, and staffing schedules to ensure staffing meets or exceeds the posted plan. Reviews will occur at least monthly and when significant changes in resident acuity are identified. Any discrepancies will be addressed promptly to support ongoing compliance.
