According to Medicare, this facility maintains an overall rating of one out of five stars, including one out of five stars concerning health inspections, two out of five stars for staffing issues, and three out of five stars for quality measures.
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to ensure that one resident was free from inappropriate use of physical restraints.” A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) provided a written statement indicating that when the family left, the resident “became anxious and confused; he was pulling at his gown and trying to get up.”
At that time, “the nurse and I decided it would be best if I stay with him for a while until he fell asleep. The patient began to pull at and kick off his bedsheets, so I pulled the curtain so he would not be exposed to the hallway.”
The Respiratory Therapist “came back, pulled the curtain open, and even more angrily (said) that I had to get back out on the floor. She said he had to have his gown back on, and she began trying to force him to put the gown over his head.” At that time “the patient put his arm up to block her, and I told her to stop, he does not want it on, and she needs to leave and let him be.”
The CNA stated, “she then told me that I had to help her tie down the sheets to the bed rail so I can get back out on the floor. I told her I was not going to help her and that she needed to stop. I said I was going to get the nurse.”
The Certified Nursing Assistant stated that the Respiratory Therapist “yelled at me to help her, that I did not need to get the nurse. I ran out of the room to get the nurse. I found the nurse and told her what was going on, and she ran back to the room with the nurse. We found the resident under the sheet, and the sheet was tied to both side rails. He was covered from the neck down. We immediately untied the resident and checked them for any injury. He did not have any. I stayed with the patient, and the nurse ran to get the house supervisor.”
