- Failure to Respond Appropriately to All Alleged Violations – citation #F610 date October 26, 2018
- Failure to Ensure Services Provided by the Nursing Facility Meet Professional Standards of Quality – citation #F6588 June 20, 2019
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to investigate and report results of an abuse allegation for [two residents] to the State Survey Agency within five working days” as required by law. This “failure had the potential to place other residents at an increased risk of abuse.”
The facility’s Director of Nursing stated that “I know I was supposed to do an investigation within five days, but I did not do [it] at this time.” A Licensed Vocational Nurse stated that “today the resident ran down the hallway with sudden, unpredictable, angry outbursts.” The resident “had two aggressive outbursts toward staff today.”
The Interdisciplinary Progress Note dated September 18, 2018, at 3:30 PM indicated that the resident “was noted taking the wheelchair alarm [off] and hitting another resident on the left side of her face, causing her to fall.”
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to implement wound treatment according to Physician’s orders for [one resident]. This failure had the potential to result in delayed healing.” The nursing home also failed to “implement medication administration according to policy and procedure for [another resident]. This failure had the potential to result in [this resident] not taking her medication and for other residents to take her medications.”
The state investigators conducted an interview and concurrent observation of the resident “with an uncovered wound on her left arm approximately 1” x 4” in size and draining with a clear, whitish mixed with reddish discharge.” The resident “verified the wound was a skin tear.”
A review of the medical records verified “the findings and stated the Treatment Nurse should have put the dressing on according to Physician’s orders.”
An observation was made of the second resident at 8:47 AM. The resident was in the room with “a small, white paper cup containing six pills, observed on the bedside table in front of [the resident, who stated that] there were too many pills. She could not take them all at once and she wanted to take the pills after breakfast.”
This resident stated that the Medication Nurses “leave her pills every day.” The resident stated, “I can take them myself. I do not need someone looking over me.”
A Licensed Vocational Nurse stated that morning that “he did leave [the resident’s] medications at her bedside for her to take” and “I was wrong.”
