Failure to Maintain Clean and Homelike Resident Bathrooms
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility failed to maintain a clean, comfortable, and homelike environment in four resident bathrooms across multiple units. Specifically, the Apple unit bathroom had a shower floor missing approximately eight tiles and a wall with broken and missing tiles. The Rosemont unit bathroom contained a soiled Band-Aid on the shower floor, a broken wall at the shower entrance with missing tiles and bent metal, and another wall with missing and broken tiles. In the [NAME] unit bathroom, a broken plastic light cover was found lying on the floor by the entrance door. The Rehab unit bathroom had a wall separating two showers with broken and missing tiles. Interviews with the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the need for repairs in each area, and a resident reported that broken tiles had been present for some time, with instances of soiled bandages and dirty wash rags left on the bathroom floor during showers.
