Based on policy review, resident interview, staff interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident has a right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment. Through a random opportunity for discovery, it was found Resident #23 had a busted up air conditioning unit that was in disrepair. This failed practice had the potential to affect a limited number of residents. Resident identifiers: #23. Facility census: 111. Findings included: a) Resident #23 During initial screening process on 06/02/19 at 2:30 PM, Resident #23's dresser and HVAC (centralized heating ventilation and air conditioning system) unit in her room were found to be in disrepair and maintained in an unsafe manner. The front of the middle wooden dresser drawer was observed to be busted out, loosely hanging off the base of the drawer only to be attached by one nail in the left-hand corner. The Resident's HVAC unit in her room was found to be in poor condition with the plastic framing that enclosed the heating busted in several places, along the top and sides. The HVAC unit was loose and had came unattached from the right-hand side of the heating unit sliding down over the temperature control knob, causing the temperature control knob to be very difficult to turn. On 06/02/19 at 2:33 PM, Resident #23 stated that she could not access her dresser drawers due to the front of the middle drawer falling apart. Resident stated, I told maintenance a while back, and he said he would have to go to into town and get some wood glue to fix the drawer, but he has never come back to fix it. The Resident also stated she had not been able to fully utilize her dresser for quite some time due to the broken dresser drawer, and she was unable to adjust the heat on the HVAC unit due to the broken plastic frame, so she just left it on one setting (high heat) and had gotten used to hot temperature. At 9:05 AM on 06/05/19 during an interview, the Administrator agreed the Resident's dresser drawer was in disrepair and inaccessible to Resident, and it needed repaired immediately. The facility's Administrator stated, I will get with our maintenance guy and have him get whatever supplies he will need to fix it today. In regard to the broken plastic framing around the HVAC unit, the Administrator stated, I will have our maintenance guy go to storage right now and see if we have another HVAC unit that we can use to replace this immediately, this is not acceptable.	2020-09-01
