Summary
The facility failed to maintain cleanliness in the resident environment, specifically in one of three resident bathrooms reviewed. On multiple occasions, surveyors observed a dry, brown substance present on the surface and within the opening of the toilet seat riser in the bathroom of a specified room. These observations were made at various times over several days. During an interview, the Administrator acknowledged that the toilet seat riser was soiled and required regular cleaning. A review of the facility's Resident Rights policy confirmed that residents are entitled to a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment.
