Summary

The facility failed to provide a clean, safe, and sanitary environment for 14 residents residing on the North Hall, as evidenced by the presence of a black substance covering approximately 50% of an air vent in the hallway near the dining area and meal tray staging room. Observations on multiple occasions revealed the black substance on both the air vent and surrounding ceiling tiles, extending to the wall. The Director of Nursing acknowledged awareness of the mold or mold-like substance and reported bringing it to the Administrator's attention, but the issue remained unaddressed as of subsequent observations. Facility policy requires environmental surfaces to be cleaned and disinfected according to CDC recommendations and OSHA standards, but these procedures were not followed, resulting in unsanitary conditions for the affected residents. No information regarding corrective or follow-up actions is included in the report.
