Inspectors wroteBased on observations, interviews, record reviews, and a review of facility policies and procedures, the facility failed to provide adequate fingernail care for four (Residents #57, #72, #118 and #140) of 57 sampled residents.

The facility failed to properly store and dispose of razors and hair shears used by Resident #89 who shared a room with Resident #103. Resident #103 was severely cognitively impaired and independently mobile. This placed both residents and any other resident who could access this room at risk for accidents with injury.
