resident's clinical condition demonstrates
that a reduction in range of motion is
unavoidable; and
§483.25(c)(2) A resident with limited range of
motion receives appropriate treatment and
services to increase range of motion and/or to
prevent further decrease in range of motion.
§483.25(c)(3) A resident with limited mobility
receives appropriate services, equipment, and
assistance to maintain or improve mobility
with the maximum practicable independence
unless a reduction in mobility is
demonstrably unavoidable.
Based on interview and record review, the facility
failed to ensure restorative services were provided
as recommended for 4 of 4 residents reviewed for
restorative services. The deficient practice had
the potential to effect 21 of 28 residents who had
recommendations for restorative services.
(Resident 25, Resident 12, Resident 21, and
Resident 6)
Findings include:
1. The record review for Resident 25 began on
5-1-2018 at 2:00 p.m. Diagnoses included but were
not limited to, Parkinson's Disease, lack of
coordination, weakness, diabetes with
neuropathy, difficulty in walking, and restless leg
syndrome.
The quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set)
assessment dated 4-14-2018, indicated Resident 25
had a
BIMS (Brief Interview of Mental Status) score of
15/15 (cognitively intact). The functional
assessment indicated the resident required an
extensive assist of 2 for bed mobility, an extensive
F 0688 F688
It is the practice of this facility
to assure that residents
identified with limited range of
motion receive services to
increase range of motion
and/or prevent further
decrease in range of motion.
The correction action taken for
those residents found to be
affected by the deficient practice
include:
Residents #6, #12, #21, and #25
have been reviewed and are now
receiving restorative services in
accordance with the plan of care.
Other residents that have the
potential to be affected have
been identified by:
All residents have been reviewed
to assure that if there were
recommendations from
therapy/nursing for restorative
services that they are receiving the
services as recommended.

On 5/1/18 at at 9:00 a.m., the 2018 resident council
meeting minutes were reviewed. The March 27,
2018 meeting minutes indicated the following:
"...Concerns...will be nice to have ( CNA 1 name)
back on restorative..." The response from facility
of concern was "We are in the process of trying
to hire additional CNAs to fill our staffing needs.
We are working with a company called (name of
company) that trains and places CNA's in a HC
(healthcare) setting...as we fill our CNA shortages
the restorative aide will have more time to focus
on the restorative program..." The April 24, 2018
minutes were also reviewed with the following
observed: "...do (sic) to lack of staff there are
things not getting done or not getting done
right..." The facility response to "Do (sic) of staff
there are things not getting done or not getting
done right...We are trying to improve staffing, as
new staff is hired we will make sure training is
properly completed..."
On 5/3/18 at 9:35 a.m. the Physical Therapy (PT)
Supervisor was interviewed. She indicated the
resident has finished PT on 12/1/17. The PT
supervisor indicated after PT was completed, the
restorative program had been recommended to
begin. She indicated if a prior restorative plan was
in place before PT had been started, the resident
was to continue with the prior restorative
program. The PT supervisor indicated the
program that would have rolled over was the
5/19/17 "Therapy Comm/inservice to nursing."
The PT Supervisor indicated the
treatment/recommendations documented on
5/19/17, did not include a "frequency" for the
AROM and the gait with the rolling walker
because the restorative CNA 1, had been trained
on the program and was aware of the "frequency"
of the program. She indicated she thought CNA 1

was the "Restorative CNA" but CNA 1 had been
working as a CNA and not as a Restorative CNA.
The PT Supervisor indicated the resident's
cognition did vary. She indicated Resident 6
would need to be reminded to ambulate to and
from the dining room, but the resident was able to
ambulate independently in her room with her
walker. The PT Supervisor indicated the resident
started back with physical therapy on 4/13/18.
She indicated "about every 3 months," the
residents in the restorative program were reviewed
to see if anyone had experienced a decline. She
indicated physical therapy had observed this
resident as this resident was cognitively unable to
tell if she had declined. The Physical Therapy
Supervisor indicated in the facility "Morning
meetings", the status of residents were reviewed
and anyone with a potential decline would be
screened.
On 5/3/18 at 9:55 a.m. the DON (Director of
Nursing) was interviewed. She indicated the
resident's ADL status had been reviewed in April
2018 and the resident had been started back on PT
on 4/13/18. She indicated this was a result of the
Quality Measure meeting where ADL
performances were reviewed for the residents.
The DON indicated staff were expected to go back
and offer restorative services again if the resident
initial
ly refused or was unavailable for restorative
services when initially offered. The DON
indicated she was unable to differentiate
what the "8" meant on the "POC Response
History" Task form. She indicated it was
important to know what specifically the "8"
represented as services would be reoffered
if the resident had been unavailable and/or

refused. The DON indicated for
"supervision oversight" the resident has to be
in the staff's sight, not necessarily right
beside the resident. The DON indicated
CNA 1 had been providing restorative
services for close to a year. The DON
indicated due to staffing issues, CNA 1 had
been working second shift as a CNA and
not day shift, performing her restorative
duties. She indicated when CNA 1 worked
second shift, the day shift CNAs were to
provide restorative programs, as indicated,
for the residents they were caring for. The
DON indicated optimally, the restorative
CNA was to just perform restorative tasks.
On 5/3/18 at 11:12 a.m., CNA 2 was
interviewed. She indicated she worked 6:00
a.m. to 2:00 p.m. She indicated she was
caring for 9-10 residents today. She
indicated she was not providing restorative
services for her residents as she had never
been trained on how to perform restorative
services. She indicated the second shift
CNA, CNA 1, performed restorative
services but CNA 1 had been pulled to
work as a "regular CNA." On 5/3/18 at
1:24 p.m., the DON was interviewed. She
indicated today the day shift CNAs were to
provide restorative services for the residents
they were caring for as CNA 1 was now
working second shift as a CNA. On 5/3/18

directly from local producers, subject to
applicable State and local laws or
regulations.

practices.
(iii) This provision does not preclude residents

Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to ensure sanitary
practices were followed for food preparation and
food service. This deficiency had the potential to
affect 28 of 28 residents who ate their meals from
the facility kitchen.
Findings include:
1. During an observation of the walk in kitchen
refrigerator with the Dietary Manager on 4-30-2018
at 7:50 a.m., a box of eggs were observed on the
bottom shelf without the "P" printed on the eggs.
An interview with the Dietary Manager at this
time indicated, the eggs were used for fried eggs
and over easy eggs as the residents order. The
Dietary Manager indicated the eggs were
pasteurized. An observation at this time indicated
the Dietary Manager picked up several eggs,
looked at the labeling on the box and was unable
to find the "P" printed on the eggs and unable to
find "pasteurized" printed on the box. The box
label indicated 30 dozen eggs (360) inside the box

Based on interview and record review the facility
failed to ensure employee records were completed
for 4 of 7 employee records reviewed. This
included 2 of 7 employee records reviewed for
orientation to the facility and 2 of 7 employee
records reviewed for their job description. This
practice had the potential to affect 28 of 28 of the
resident who resided in the facility's Health Care
Units. [CNA (Certified Nursing Aide) 8,
Housekeeping 9, DON (Director of Nursing) and
ADON (Assistant Director of Nursing)]
Findings include:
On 5/4/18 at 11:00 a.m., the employee records were
reviewed. The employee's orientation to the
facility were lacking for the employee files for
CNA 8 with a start date of 1/4/18 and
Housekeeping Staff 9 with a start date of 1/31/18.
The employee files for the DON and ADON were
lacking the signed Specific Job Descriptions for
the DON position and the ADON position. The
