Failure to Maintain Clean, Safe, and Homelike Environment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a clean, safe, and homelike environment for three residents as observed during a survey. In one room, the wall near the entrance and under the heating element was dirty with built-up grime, the floor mat was soiled with white and gray markings, and the bathroom had five visibly cracked floor tiles. Another resident's bathroom had three cracked floor tiles around the base of the commode. In a third room, gnats were observed flying around a bedside table that still had an old meal tray from breakfast, the wall under the heating element was corroded with grime, and an air conditioning unit was left sitting on the floor. These conditions were confirmed by the Nursing Home Administrator during a tour and interview.
