Key Review Excerpts
“The staff is compassionate, attentive, and treats residents with dignity and respect. You can tell they genuinely care—not just about medical needs, but about the people themselves.”

42 CFR 482.41 Nursing Home The facility must meet the applicable provisions of the 2012 Edition of the Life Safety Code of the National Fire Protection Association This is a recertification survey for Medicare under LSC 2012, Chapter 19, Existing Health Care Occupancies The entire facility was surveyed on November 13, 2024. The facility meets the standards, based on acceptance of a plan of correction.
Based on observations, the facility failed to display a current hydraulic plate on the sprinkler riser. Failure to ensure that the sprinkler riser hydraulic plate was in place could result in errors during modifications and failure of the sprinkler system. NFPA 25 2011 Standard for the inspection, testing, and maintenance of water-based fire protection systems. 5.2.6* Hydraulic Design Information Sign. The hydraulic design information sign for hydraulically designed systems shall be inspected quarterly to verify that it is attached securely to the sprinkler riser and is legible. .5.2.6 The hydraulic design information sign should be secured to the riser with durable wire, chain, or equivalent. (See Figure .5.2.6.) Paragraph 5.2.6 requires that the hydraulic design information sign (also called a nameplate or placard) be inspected on a quarterly basis. NFPA 13 requires a hydraulic design information sign on hydraulically designed systems so that the design criteria and system demand can be readily determined. The hydraulic design information sign can provide useful information to the owner. If the design information sign is missing, the owner should contact a design professional to determine the demand for the system, which can be written on a new design information sign. The details are also documented on the approved plans and hydraulic calculations, but these plans can be misplaced and may not be available when the property changes owners. A hydraulic design information sign that is securely fastened to the riser can provide the details when these other data are missing (see Exhibit 5.21). If the sign becomes loose or is difficult to read, it must be repaired or replaced. Findings include: Observations made while touring the facility on November 13, 2024, revealed the sprinkler riser was missing the required hydraulic plate. The quarterly inspections did not identify the missing plate. During the exit conference on November 13, 2024, the management team confirmed that the sprinkler riser hydraulic plate was missing.
Based on observation the facility failed to maintain several doors in the building. Failing to maintain doors in the facility could allow heat and/or smoke to transfer which will cause harm to the patients and/or staff. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, 2012 edition, Chapter 19, Section 19.3.6.3.5. "Doors shall be provided with a means for keeping the door closed that is acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction." Findings include: Observations made while on tour on November 13, 2024, revealed the following; 1) Room 219 not latching 2) The room across from the Activities Storage has a \'bc inch gap at the upper handle side, and 7/8 inch at the bottom 3) Room designated as the new employee break room had excessive gap across the top of the door During the exit conference conducted on November 13, 2024, the above findings were again acknowledged by the management team.
