- Failure to Develop and Implement a Care Plan That Meets All the Resident’s Needs – citation #F656 date November 21, 2018
The state investigators determined that “the facility failed to implement Care Plan interventions for smoking to ensure safety and compliance with smoking policy and procedures.” The investigation involved four smokers “who required supervision” and four other independent smokers.” This “failure contributed to [one resident] sustaining a burn on her abdomen while smoking without supervision and placed her and other residents at risk for serious injury/impairment/death from [smoking-related] fires.”
The investigators determined that “the facility’s failure to implement Care Plan interventions to ensure safety and prevent accidents resulted in non-compliance at an Immediate Jeopardy level as of September 10, 2018, which was determined to be ongoing as of the exit date” of the investigation.
The facility’s policy and procedure for smoking with an effective date of June 1, 1996, and revised on July 24, 2018, “revealed the facility permits smoking in designated areas only.” The document defined supervised smoking as ‘the observer must be in the direct area of the smoker, with eye contact, and able to respond to emergency situations.”
The investigators reviewed a resident’s Medical Records to determine that the severely, cognitively impaired resident had limited range of motion of her arm and leg on one side. The resident’s Smoking Evaluation revealed that the resident “required supervision with smoking due to poor memory, inability to demonstrate the location of the designated smoking area, unsafe smoking habits including smoking inside the facility.”
The investigator stated that “despite the development of care plans with intervention to ensure [the resident’s] safety, Nursing Progress Notes indicated the facility staff did not provide adequate supervision with smoking.” A Nursing Documentation revealed repeated incidents where the resident smoked “inside and outside the facility with neither staff supervision nor a smoking apron.”
A Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) regularly assigned to the resident stated that “she was not aware [that the resident] required supervision with smoking until after the incident when she sustained a burn to her abdomen.” The LPN “acknowledged she did not monitor or supervise [the resident] as indicated in the Care Plan because she thought she was a safe smoker at that time.”
