Summary
The facility failed to support and encourage residents to organize and participate consistently in Resident Council meetings for 2 of 5 sampled residents, R6 and R38. The Resident Handbook stated that residents may voice grievances during Resident Council meetings, but the facility’s monthly activity calendars from 02/2025 through 07/2025 did not show any scheduled Resident Council meetings. The Resident Council minutes provided for 02/2025 through 06/2025 also showed no other meetings during that time frame. During the Resident Council meeting on 08/20/2025, the Ombudsman was present with five resident participants, and both R6 and R38 expressed concern about the lack of consistent Resident Council meetings. R6’s quarterly MDS with an ARD of 05/07/2025 showed a BIMS score of 11 out of 15, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. R38’s quarterly MDS with an ARD of 04/11/2025 also showed a BIMS score of 11 out of 15, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. The Ombudsman stated she had not been notified of ongoing council meetings and asked for the Social Services Director to convene one for July 2025, and the facility complied. The Administrator stated there had been a lapse in the regularity of the meetings since the Resident Council president transferred to another facility and that there were no meetings from 02/2025 through 06/2025.

Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to store frozen green beans appropriately in the main kitchen freezer in building B. On 08/19/2025, surveyors observed that staff had removed the frozen green beans from their original cases, placed them on a shelf in the walk-in freezer, discarded the boxes, and did not date the product according to the date on the box or the facility’s labeling process. The facility policy titled, Food and Supply Storage, revised 01/2025, required food to be stored to prevent contamination and maintain safety and wholesomeness, and required staff to use the Daymark labeling system or a permanent marker to mark the received date on items removed from the original shipping box and complete all sections of a food label sticker. In interviews, the Senior of Dining Services, DHS, and Administrator each stated that food should be dated according to the facility’s process.
