- Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F689 date March 2, 2018
- Failure to Ensure Services Provided by the Nursing Facility Meet Professional Standards of Quality – citation #F281 date August 10, 2017
The state investigators determined that the nursing home "failed to implement an individualized Care Plan for Smoking for [one resident].” This “failure has a potential for [the resident’s] safety needs to be unmet, which can place [the resident] at risk for injury or even death.”
A review of the resident’s Smoker at Risk Assessment indicated that the resident “was a non-independent smoker and required supervision.” However, a review of the Care Plan for Smoking documented by the Social Services Director indicated that the resident “needs no supervision while smoking.” Alternatively, the Interdisciplinary Team documented that the resident “was oriented to the facility smoking policies and procedures [and] was not informed that he is supposed to smoke under staff supervision.”
The state investigators interviewed and observed the resident at 7:16 AM in the hallway. The resident stated that “he is a smoker and smokes any brand of cigarette [saying that] for some time he smokes alone or sometimes most was with staff supervision.” The resident indicated that “he did not know he requires staff supervision for smoking.”
The “facility failed to notify the physician that an appointment was canceled and needed to be rescheduled for [one resident] who had an appointment for a right shoulder magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to pain, to rule out a rotator cuff tear.” This failure “had the potential for [a resident] to develop more tears on the right shoulder and to receive a delay in treatment and care due to late confirmation of the diagnosis.”
The investigators interviewed the resident who stated that he had gone for an MRI the month previously, “but it was not done because he got dizzy during the procedure.” The resident stated, “when I talked to the nurse to ask when the next MRI is, they say they will let me know. They are giving me the runaround. It has been a month now.”
Investigators interviewed a Licensed Vocational Nurse and asked if he had called the General Acute Care Hospital. The nurse stated that “I did not document that I called him [the doctor]” to “notify him and verify that [the resident] still wants the MRI done.”
