According to Medicare, this facility maintains an overall rating of one out of five stars, including one out of five stars concerning health inspections, one out of five stars for staffing issues and three out of five stars for quality measures.
According to state investigators, “the facility failed to notify the resident’s family or resident representative of new orders.” The incident involved a resident who “requires the extensive assist of two staff members for bed mobility, transfers, toileting, and personal hygiene.”
The resident received new Physician’s orders. However, “there was no family notification.” The surveyors reviewed the resident’s laboratory test results involving hemoglobin and hematocrit that showed results that were critically low at 6.4 g/dL. A review of the resident’s Nurse’s Notes indicated that the “nurse practitioner was notified of the critically low abnormal [lab results], and new orders were received.” The resident was transferred to the emergency room.
The nursing home “failed to ensure care planned interventions were in place for a resident at risk for falls.” The incident involved a resident who “requires the extensive assistance of one staff member for bed mobility, dressing, personal hygiene, and set up assistance with meals.” The resident did not ambulate and required two staff members to transfer. The resident’s Care Plan shows they were at risk for falls.”
The nursing staff is given interventions including placing the bed in the lowest position and placing mats on the sides of the bed. However, an observation of the resident on the morning of August 30, 2018, revealed that the resident “was in bed with the head of the bed elevated and a fallen and rolled in half laying on the floor beside the bed, there was a pillow on top of the mat.”
At that time, the bed “was not in the lowest position, and there was a bedside table positioned next to the resident “without a meal tray on it.” As a part of the investigation, the surveyors interviewed in Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) who “verified the bed was not in the lowest position in the mat was not positioned correctly.” This deficiency substantiated the Complaint Number OH 946.
