Specifically, the issues involved inaccurate coding for Section A - Identification Information (Resident #96) and Section N - Medications (Resident #2, #8, #50, #54, #66, and #86). This is evidenced by, but not limited to, the following: The facility policy Resident Assessment Instrument Minimum Data Set, last reviewed September 2016, included the facility must complete an accurate, standardized, reproducible assessment of each resident's care problems on admission and periodically thereafter. 1.

Specifically, the nurse staffing information was not posted daily at the beginning of each shift during the survey, and the information on the form was not updated to reveal current dates and staffing changes. This is evidenced by the following: The undated Daily Nurse Staffing Data Protocol documented: The Scheduling Coordinator is responsible Monday to Friday for ensuring the nurse staffing data is posted in the lobby daily.

Inspectors wroteBased on observations, interviews and record review conducted during a Recertification Survey completed on 3/24/23, it was determined that for one (Resident #46) of three residents reviewed for skin conditions, the facility did not revise the resident's care plan to reflect the resident's current needs. Specifically, Resident #46's Comprehensive Care Plan (CCP) and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) [NAME] (care plan used by CNA for daily care) was not revised to include the presence of recurring skin issues with related goals, and interventions to prevent such. This is evidenced by the following: Review of facility policy Care Planning Process, dated revised April 2022, revealed that the CCP includes a health assessment beginning on the day a resident is admitted and at least every 90 days after the resident's initial review, and more often if their medical condition changes.

Specifically, there was no documented evidence that concerns and issues, identified by residents on a Resident Council Precautionary Isolation Questionnaire provided to residents (in place of resident council meetings during COVID-19), completed April 2021 through June 2021, were addressed. This was evidenced by the following: Review of the facility policy Grievance Procedure, dated May 2006, included that a grievance is brought to the attention of the Social Worker (SW) by the resident, family, or staff member verbally or in writing.

Staffing

Hours of care per resident per day, from the payroll records every home sends CMS. Higher means more staff time with each resident.

Measure	This home	New York	United States
All nursing staff (RN, LPN and aides)	3.53	3.63	3.86
Registered nurses	0.60	0.71	0.69
All nursing staff on weekends	3.12	3.18	3.42
Nurse aides	1.99

Nursing staff turnover (share who left in a year)	48.7%	40.3%	45.8%
Registered nurse turnover	25.0%	39.8%	42.9%
Administrators who left	0

CMS expects 3.45 hours a day for residents as sick as this home's (its case-mix figure). The staffing star compares the two.

Staffing by quarter, from daily payroll records

Every nursing home sends CMS its staff hours for each day (the Payroll Based Journal). Here they are added up by quarter. The latest quarter is the one behind the figures above. In January to March 2026, nursing staff hours per resident were 3.70 on weekdays and 3.12 on weekends, 16% lower on weekends (nationally, weekends ran 15% lower). Contract or agency staff worked 1.2% of nursing hours, against 5.3% nationally. Total nursing hours per resident went from 3.69 in April to June 2025 to 3.53 in January to March 2026.

Quarter	All nursing staff	Registered nurses	Weekdays	Weekends	Contract staff share	Days with no RN hours	Residents a day
Jan to Mar 2026	3.53	0.60	3.70	3.12	1.2%	0 of 90	98
Oct to Dec 2025	3.76	0.61	3.90	3.43	0.0%	0 of 92	101
Jul to Sep 2025	3.78	0.65	4.01	3.20	0.0%	0 of 92	100

United States, Jan to Mar 2026	3.75	0.62	3.92	3.33	5.3%	0.5% of days
New York, Jan to Mar 2026	3.55	0.68	3.72	3.13	9.8%	0.1% of days

Hours per resident per day: staff hours in the quarter divided by resident days (the daily census CMS derives from resident assessments). Registered nurses include the director of nursing and RNs with administrative duties; aides include nurse aides in training and medication aides, as in CMS's own staffing measure. How these are calculated.
