Summary
The facility failed to maintain a safe, clean, and home-like environment for one resident, as required by policy and regulation. Housekeeping was scheduled to clean the resident's room daily between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., but interviews and multiple observations over several days confirmed that the room had not been cleaned. A dried, light brown substance was observed under the resident's urinary drainage bag and remained present for at least four days, as verified by staff and surveyors. The resident reported that housekeeping had not cleaned the room for several days, and there was no documentation indicating that the resident had refused housekeeping services. The Nursing Home Administrator confirmed these findings.
