Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility failed to maintain a clean, comfortable, and homelike environment for residents on Unit 30. Specifically, broken wooden wall molding trim was found in three resident rooms, and two broken ceiling tiles were noted in another room, with one tile having a piece of paper towel inserted into the hole. Interviews with the Maintenance Director revealed that only two staff members were assigned to the Maintenance Department, and that environmental rounds were not conducted; instead, maintenance issues were addressed only when reported through the TELS system by nursing staff. Additionally, it was noted that a resident refused to leave their room, which prevented repair of the wall trim behind their bed.
