Kenosha Wisconsin Nursing Home Safety Concerns

One Star Rating

The federal government and Wisconsin Department of Public Health website update comprehensive information containing historical details of all citations and violations.

According to Medicare, this facility maintains an overall rating of one out of five stars, including two out of five stars concerning health inspections, one out of five stars for staffing issues and one out of five stars for quality measures.

  • Failure to Immediately Notify the Resident, the Resident’s Doctor or Family Members of a Change in the Resident’s Condition Including a Decline in Their Health or Injury – citation date August 14, 2017
  • According to state investigators, “the facility did not inform the resident representative when [one resident] had an injury to her hand.” The resident “sustained a one-inch long wound to her left hand.”

    The resident’s sister, “who is the resident’s representative, was not informed of this injury.” The state survey team received a complaint regarding the resident’s injuries on August 9, 2017. The complainant indicated that the resident “had a Band-Aid on her hand and [said that the resident] had caught her hand on the Hoyer lift.

  • Failure to Report and Investigate Any Act or Reports of Abuse, Neglect or Mistreatment of Residents – citation #F225 date October 17, 2018
  • The nursing home “did not ensure [two residents] with reportable incidents had a thorough investigation into the incidents and the incidents were reported timely and to the State agency.” The resident “sustained an injury of unknown origin and the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) did not immediately report the injury.”

    A separate resident “had two resident-to-resident altercations that were not thoroughly investigated [nor] reported to the State agency.” That resident “had reported a missing [wrist] watch that was not thoroughly investigated and reported to the State agency.”

  • Failure to Provide Residents Proper Treatment to Prevent the Development of New Bedsores or Allow Existing Pressure Wound to Heal – citation #F314 date August 14, 2017
  • The facility “did not ensure residents receive pressure injury prevention interventions. This [failure] was observed with [two residents] at risk for pressure injury.” In one incident, the resident “did not receive a barrier cream to the buttocks after being incontinent [and another resident] did not receive pressure injury intervention to prevent a heel injury.”

    The surveyors observed two Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) providing toileting care using a ‘sit-to-stand’ lift to transport the resident to the toilet from their wheelchair. While the staff provided peri-care, there “was no barrier cream applied after urinary incontinence.”

    A review of the resident’s Care Plan indicated that they were “at risk for pressure injury and “had no control over their bladder” making them susceptible for skin breakdown “related to impaired mobility and bowel and bladder incontinence.” The staff is instructed to provide a moisture barrier product to the perineal area when necessary.

    The second resident had a right heel pressure injury that was unstageable. A review of that resident’s Care Plan shows that there were no interventions involving heel prevention.

★★★★★
Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa

After I read Jonathan’s Nursing Home Blog, I decided to hire him to look into my wife’s treatment at a local nursing home. Jonathan did a great job explaining the process and the laws that apply to nursing homes. I immediately felt at ease and was glad to have him on my side. Though the lawsuit process was at times frustrating, Jonathan reassured me, particularly at my deposition. I really felt like Jonathan cared about my wife’s best interests, and I think that came across to the lawyers for the nursing home. Eric
