- Failure to Develop, Implement and Enforce Policies and Procedures That Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Mistreatment – citation #F607 date April 13, 2018
- Failure to Ensure the Nursing Home Area Remained Free of Accident Hazards and Risks and Provides Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F323 date August 11, 2017
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to implement its policy and procedure on Patient Abuse by failing to ensure [one employee] received appropriate training on abuse prevention.”
This “deficient practice resulted in [a Licensed Vocational Nurse] not being knowledgeable on abuse prevention and how to appropriately respond to an aggressive resident, which had the potential of exposing [the resident] and other residents to all types of abuse.”
The state investigators reviewed a facility-reported incident dated December 25, 2017. The document indicates that “there was an altercation between [a Licensed Vocational Nurse and a resident] that occurred on December 23, 2017, at 6:45 PM.” The facility called the police the same day. The police “found no evidence of battery or assault by staff.”
However, the Licensed Vocational Nurse’s “employee file indicated the employee was not trained on abuse prevention and how to manage a response to an aggressive resident.” The Administrator stated that the Licensed Vocational Nurse “was relieved of his job due to his behavior and poor attendance.” The Director of Staff Development stated that she had conducted in-services to all staff members at the facility. However, that specific Licensed Vocational Nurse “did not attend that day.”
The facility “failed to provide care and services to prevent falls for [one resident] who was assessed to have the tendency to lean forward when in a seated position, in accordance with assessments, Care Plans, and Physician’s orders.”
The nursing staff failed to ensure that the resident’s reclining wheelchair was tilted back to prevent the resident from falling forward. The nursing home failed to “provide a wedge seat cushion (a cushion used to help prevent wheelchair-bound individuals from sliding forward) in the reclining wheelchair to prevent [the resident] from leaning forward.”
These deficient practices resulted in the resident “sustaining a fall with a right ankle laceration and was sent out to the hospital for sutures.”
