The facility failed to ensure fire safety requirements required by city or county inspections were met. Specifically, the facility was using an incorrect fire inspection form intended for a Foster Care Home rather than a Family Care Home. Consequently, the local 911 system would not properly alert the fire response team that the facility is a licensed home with three non-ambulatory residents.

The facility failed to ensure the Resident Register was completed within 72 hours of admission for one resident. The resident's family member had not returned the completed register despite multiple follow-up attempts by the facility.

The facility failed to implement physician orders for one resident because a two-page medication order (FL2) was faxed to the pharmacy as only a single page. As a result, several medications including furosemide, diclofenac gel, polyethylene glycol, and sennoside were not entered into the eMAR or received by the pharmacy.

The facility failed to ensure the Resident Register was completed and signed within 72 hours of admission for one of the three sampled residents. A review of the resident's record revealed that no signed Resident Register was present.
