Staff stated that care provided is documented, including toileting and brief changes, and that staff respond to R1’s requests for assistance as promptly as possible. Staff stated that care plans and hospice plans are available and followed, and that care is individualized based on R1’s preferences and needs. Staff denied concerns of neglect and stated that R1 has not complained about incontinent care. During the resident interview, R1 stated that the facility provides her with everything she needs and that staff treat her well. R1 expressed satisfaction with her living environment and stated that her overall health is good. R1 stated she does not like hospice services and would prefer to return to her prior routine.

W2 stated that reminder signages are posted in R1’s room for caregivers to see and that care is adjusted to meet R1’s preferences.

W2 stated their role is oversight and care coordination, with caregivers providing direct incontinence care per the care plan. W2 stated that they do not believe the facility neglects residents and would feel comfortable having their own family reside at the facility. Based on the investigation conducted, including interviews with staff, witnesses and residents and review of relevant records, there was insufficient evidence to support the reported allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Unsubstantiated Allegation: Staff did not ensure that resident received medical treatment in a timely manner. It has been alleged that R-1 has not received physical therapy since sustaining an injury a few months ago. Staff interviews revealed that R-1 sustained an injury on 07/01/25 which resulted in R-1 requiring physical therapy services. Interviewed staff indicated that R-1 was sent to the hospital on 07/01/25 for treatment and was discharged on 07/05/25 to the on-site Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) for rehabilitation. Per interviews (including interview with R-1’s Physical Therapist), R-1 received therapy during their stay at the SNF.

Per interviews, due to hospice care being in place, there was a delay with obtaining billing authorization for R-1 to receive physical therapy services. Per interviews, R-1’s POA was aware of the pending authorization for therapy services (meeting was held with R-1’s POA on 08/07/25). Per R-1’s Physical Therapist interview, R-1 began receiving therapy on 08/27/25 at this facility (once the authorization request was approved). Per interviews, the delay for physical therapy services for R-1 was due to the pending authorization approval and not due to staff not ensuring R-1 received medical treatment in a timely manner. Resident interviews revealed that they receive medical treatment in a timely manner and that they do not have any concerns. Interviews and documentation reviewed do not corroborate this allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
