The agreements did not grant the right to rescind within 30 days and did not state that signing was not a condition of admission. These issues were confirmed by the Regional Director of Operations.

Failure to Implement Smoking Policies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to implement smoking policies for a resident identified as a smoker. The resident was admitted to the facility and did not have a smoking assessment to assess for safety of smoking, nor was there a care plan for smoking. The resident had been signed out to smoke on multiple dates, and interviews confirmed that the resident smokes outside, with lighters kept at the nursing station and cigarettes kept in the resident's room. The facility's policy requires residents who smoke to be assessed for safety and to have a care plan, which was not followed in this case.
Deficient Arbitration Agreements
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure their arbitration agreement contained all the necessary elements for three residents. Specifically, the agreements did not grant the residents or their representatives the right to rescind the agreement within 30 calendar days of signing it. Additionally, the agreements did not explicitly state that neither the resident nor their representative is required to sign an agreement for binding arbitration as a condition of admission. These deficiencies were confirmed during an interview with the Regional Director of Operations.
Failure to Ensure Convenient Arbitration Venue
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that the arbitration agreement provided for the selection of a venue that is convenient to both parties for three residents reviewed for binding arbitration. During the review, it was found that the signed arbitration agreements for these residents did not include provisions for selecting a mutually convenient venue. This finding was confirmed through interviews with the Regional Nurse and the Regional Director of Operations.
