Finding: On 7/30/19 during a tour of the Homestead unit, a surveyor observed a resident sitting in a wheelchair with a pummel cushion in place. On 7/30/19 during 2 anonymous interviews with a surveyor it was stated that the pummel cushion helps keep him/her in their chair. On 7/30/19 at 11:45 a.m. during an interview with the charge nurse it was stated that the pummel cushion is to help remind him/her to stay sitting, it helps him/her sit up straight in the chair.

On 7/31/19 at 1:00 p.m. a surveyor confirmed during in an interview with the Center Nurse Executive that Resident #10 did not have an assessment or an order for [REDACTED]. 2020-09-01
