Summary
The facility failed to maintain a clean and sanitary environment in resident rooms, specifically regarding the condition of couches. During observations, three residents' rooms were found to have couches with visible stains: one couch had multiple dark stains on the seat cushion, another had multiple white stains on the seat cushion, and a third had multiple dark stains on both the seat cushion and armrest. The Director of Nursing, present during these observations, acknowledged the presence of stains and confirmed that the couches needed to be cleaned. These findings demonstrate that the facility did not ensure that resident room furnishings were kept clean and in accordance with expectations for a homelike environment.
