(3) Ensuring that the use of oxygen equipment meets the following requirements: (B) “No Smoking-Oxygen in Use” signs shall be posted in the appropriate areas. This requirement is not met as evidenced by: Deficient Practice Statement Based on observation, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above in that room #1 had an oxygen tank in the room but no signs of " No Smoking-Oxygen in Use " signs were observed outside the resident room door or in appropriate areas, which poses/posed a potential health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.
POC Due Date: 09/18/2025 Plan of Correction Administrator shall ensure that a No Smoking-Oxygen In Use sign is posted when oxygen tanks are in the facility. Facility staff printed a sign and posted it outside room #1. *Cleared during the visit.
(e) For every prescription and nonprescription PRN medication for which the licensee provides assistance there shall be a signed, dated written order from a physician on a prescription blank, maintained in the resident's file, and a label on the medication. Both the physician's order and the label shall contain at least all of the following information. (2) The exact dosage. This requirement is not met as evidenced by: Deficient Practice Statement Based on record review, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above in that resident (R3's) Rx order (1/6/2023) Lisinopril 20 mg/hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg, is listed on resident records as " Lisinopril HCTZ 10-12.5 mg”. Therefore, the exact physician order dosage was incorrectly documented on R3's records, staff acknowledged they had not noticed that there was a difference in dosage on the medication bottle and their records and no physician order was on file, which poses an immediate health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.

This requirement is not met as evidenced by: Deficient Practice Statement Based on observation, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above in that a total 4 residents [ R2, R3, R5 & R6] had full and/or two half rails side by side, converting it into full rails on each side, but none of the residents are receiving hospice services, which poses an immediate health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.
POC Due Date: 09/22/2023 Plan of Correction Administrator shall submit copies of R2, R3, R5, & R6's physican order for half bed rails. Pictures were taken. NOTE: During the visit Licensee/Administrator called the resident's physicians and requested bed rail physician orders.
