- Failure to Develop, Implement and Enforce Policies and Procedures That Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Mistreatment – citation #F607 date October 23, 2018
- Failure to Provide Appropriate Pressure Ulcer Care Prevent New Ulcers from Developing – citation #F686 date November 2, 2018
The state investigators determined the nursing home "failed to implement its policy and procedure for Abuse Investigations for [one resident] by a failure to separate and remove the Activity Director from duty until the results of the abuse investigation have been reviewed by the Administrator.”
The nursing home also failed to “report the allegations of verbal abuse to the Department of Public Health within twenty-four hours” and “failed to ensure a Registered Nurse (RN), who is the facility’s Abuse Coordinator,” was aware of the allegation. The nursing home did not “retrain the Certified Nursing Assistant on abuse training upon obtaining the CNA position on March 8, 2018. These deficient practices violated [the resident’s] right and had the potential to violate other residents’ rights to be free from abuse.”
The facility “failed to provide the necessary services to promote healing and prevent pressure ulcer infection for [one resident]. This resident had “a stage IV pressure ulcer to the sacro coccyx (the bottom of the spine in the tailbone area) and the facility failed to implement its facility’s policy and procedure by a failure to identify factors that placed [the resident] at risk for worsening pressure ulcers.”
The nursing home also failed to “maintain a complete weekly pressure ulcer assessment for [this resident] that included pressure ulcer/wound measurement and the description of the wound characteristics.”
The nursing staff also failed to “modify and implement new Care Plans when the current interventions were not effective. These deficient practices resulted in [the resident’s] pressure ulcer increasing in size on August 20, 2018 and had the potential for the resident to develop new pressure ulcers.” As a result, the state investigators made an unannounced visit to the facility “to investigate a complaint allegation regarding Quality of Care.”
The investigators reviewed the resident’s Wound worksheet on August 10, 2018, August 17, 2018, and August 24, 2018. However, “there was no description of the wound characteristics including if there was tunneling (a narrow opening or passageway underneath the skin that can extend in any direction), undermining tissue of the wound base and tissue surrounding the wound.”
