Summary
The facility failed to provide the required minimum of 80 square feet of space per resident in multiple occupancy rooms, as mandated by regulation. During an observation of the facility's floor plan, it was found that 16 out of 25 resident rooms did not meet this requirement, with individual resident space ranging from 64.92 to 78.40 square feet per bed in affected rooms. This deficiency was confirmed by the Nursing Home Administrator during an interview, who acknowledged that the room sizes were less than the required 80 square feet per resident. The findings were based on direct measurement and review of the facility's room dimensions.
