Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Cypress Woods Care Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Surveyors found that several residents sharing a bathroom had their visibly used toothbrushes stored together in a single cup on the countertop, with the bristle heads touching and one brush worn down to the handle. A CNA admitted the brushes belonged to different residents, were kept together for convenience, and acknowledged they should have been stored individually in labeled zip lock bags. An LVN confirmed that each resident should have separate, sanitary storage for personal hygiene items and agreed that shared storage could lead to infection. The DON stated that this bristle-to-bristle storage failed to ensure a sanitary environment, increased the risk of bacterial transfer, and noted there was no policy for storing residents’ personal hygiene items.
A facility failed to obtain necessary lab services for a resident prescribed atorvastatin and levothyroxine, despite a pharmacist's recommendation and physician's agreement. The resident, with a history of cerebral infarction, hypothyroidism, and hypertensive heart disease, did not receive the required lipid and thyroid panels. Interviews revealed a breakdown in the process of ordering and following up on lab tests, with the DON, MDS nurse, and Medical Records staff unable to determine where the failure occurred.
A long-term care facility failed to ensure a safe environment for eight residents by barricading an exit door with plywood, creating a dead-end corridor. This was done to accommodate portable air conditioning ducts due to malfunctioning units. The residents, who had various medical conditions and required assistance, were not moved to another hall with an unobstructed exit. Staff interviews revealed a lack of awareness about the implications of the barricaded exit, and the facility's policy on safety was not followed.
The facility failed to implement fall prevention interventions for a high-risk resident, including the use of a fall mat and keeping the bed in the lowest position. Staff were unaware of the interventions, and there was a lack of communication and adherence to the care plan, placing the resident at risk for injury.
Improper Group Storage of Toothbrushes Causing Unsanitary Conditions
Penalty
Summary
The deficiency involves the facility’s failure to maintain a safe, clean, and sanitary environment by improperly storing multiple residents’ toothbrushes together. Record review showed a resident statement reporting dirty and unsanitary conditions, including all residents’ toothbrushes being kept together in a single cup. During an observation on 01/13/2026 at 9:10 a.m., surveyors observed a plastic cup on a shared bathroom countertop used by four residents, containing four visibly used toothbrushes stored together with the bristle heads touching. A subsequent observation at 9:15 a.m. revealed that the toothbrushes were dirty, and the bristles of one toothbrush were worn down to the handle. During an interview at 9:25 a.m., CNA #1 confirmed the toothbrushes belonged to four different residents and acknowledged they were stored together to keep them in one place, despite stating that toothbrushes should be kept in individual plastic zip lock bags labeled with each resident’s name. CNA #1 also stated that storing toothbrushes together in one cup could cause residents to get sick or infected. At 10:00 a.m., an LVN stated that although the residents shared the bathroom, each should have individual, sanitary storage for personal hygiene items and agreed that storing toothbrushes together in one cup could cause infection or illness. At 11:30 a.m., the DON stated that storing four residents’ toothbrushes in one cup with bristle-to-bristle contact failed to ensure a sanitary environment and increased the risk of bacterial transfer among residents, and also acknowledged there was no policy or procedure for storing residents’ personal hygiene items.
Failure to Obtain Necessary Lab Services for Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to obtain necessary laboratory services for a resident, identified as Resident #31, who was prescribed atorvastatin and levothyroxine. The resident, a female with a history of cerebral infarction, hypothyroidism, and hypertensive heart disease, was supposed to have a lipid panel and thyroid panel conducted to ensure the medications were at correct levels. Despite a pharmacist's recommendation on September 4, 2024, and the physician's agreement on September 23, 2024, the lab tests were not ordered. This oversight was discovered during a review of physician orders on January 7, 2025, which showed no active orders for the requested labs. Interviews with the Director of Nursing (DON), MDS nurse, and Medical Records staff revealed a breakdown in the process of ordering and following up on lab tests. The DON acknowledged that the signed form from the physician was an order that should have been completed, but it was unclear where the process failed. The MDS nurse was responsible for following up on signed orders but was unsure why the order was not completed. The Medical Records staff indicated that after receiving the signed form, it was given to the MDS nurse for further action, but the lab tests were never ordered. The facility's policy requires staff to process test requisitions and arrange for tests, which was not adhered to in this case.
Barricaded Exit Creates Hazard in LTC Facility
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that the environment was free from accident hazards and that residents received adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents. Specifically, eight residents were unable to evacuate in the event of an emergency due to plywood bolted down to an exterior door, which barricaded the exit on Hall A. This created a dead-end corridor, leaving the residents with only one exit path. The residents affected had various medical conditions, including severe cognitive impairments, mobility issues, and other health concerns that required substantial assistance from staff. The deficiency was observed when the exit door at the end of Hall A, near resident rooms 101-106, was found to be physically barricaded with plywood. This was done to accommodate portable air conditioning ducts due to malfunctioning air conditioning units in the facility. The Administrator admitted that the plywood was installed by a local contractor to cool Hall A, and it had been in place for two days. Despite the potential risk, the residents were not moved to another hall with an unobstructed exit, and the Administrator stated that interviewable residents were asked about moving but chose to remain in their rooms. Interviews with staff and residents revealed a lack of awareness and understanding of the implications of the barricaded exit. Some staff members expressed concern about the situation but assumed that the necessary approvals had been given. The Maintenance Director, who had no prior experience with air conditioning, was unaware that the plywood created a dead-end corridor. The Director of Nursing, who was on vacation during the installation, was not informed of the situation until her return. The facility's policy on safety and supervision emphasized the importance of maintaining an environment free from accident hazards, but this was not adhered to in this instance.
Failure to Implement Fall Prevention Interventions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for Resident #1, who was at high risk for falls. Despite the care plan interventions specifying the use of a fall mat and keeping the bed in the lowest position, these measures were not in place during multiple observations. Resident #1, an elderly female with diagnoses including muscle weakness, abnormal gait/mobility, cerebrovascular accident, and dementia, was observed in bed without the fall mat and with the bed not in the low position on several occasions on 5/8/2024. Interviews with staff revealed a lack of awareness and communication regarding the fall prevention interventions. CNA A, who was assigned to Resident #1, was not informed about the fall mat intervention and did not know why the bed was not in the lowest position. Similarly, LVN A admitted to not realizing the fall mat intervention had started, and the Central Supply staff was not informed about the need for a fall mat until the day of the survey. The DON acknowledged that the interventions were discussed in morning meetings but could not explain why they were not implemented. The facility's policies on comprehensive person-centered care plans and fall prevention were not followed, leading to the failure to implement the necessary interventions for Resident #1. The care plan and fall prevention protocols required that all staff ensure the interventions were in place, but this did not occur, placing Resident #1 at risk for injury. The lack of communication and adherence to the care plan among the staff contributed to this deficiency.
