Room Size Deficiency in Multiple Resident Rooms
Summary
The facility did not meet the minimum room size requirement of 80 square feet per resident in multiple resident rooms and 100 square feet for single resident rooms. Specifically, in Building 1, Rooms 2, 3, 4, and 5, and in Building 2, certain rooms were found to be below the required square footage per resident. The Client Analysis of Accommodations indicated that six out of 24 resident rooms did not meet the minimum room size requirement. Despite this, the variations in room size were not observed to adversely affect the residents' health, safety, quality of care, or quality of life during the survey. The facility administrator confirmed the room sizes and presented a waiver from CMS for the affected rooms.

Summary
The facility failed to provide single resident rooms with at least 100 square feet of living space, as required. During a survey, it was confirmed through interview with the Administrator and review of the space/occupancy certification waiver that six single rooms, each occupied by a resident, measured less than the required 100 square feet. The specific room sizes ranged from 91.50 to 97.75 square feet. This deficiency affected six residents who were residing in these undersized single rooms at the time of the survey.
