One Star Rating

Families can visit Medicare.gov and the Ohio Department of Public Health website to obtain a complete list of all violations, citations, and deficiencies identified by investigators and surveyors.

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

  • Failure to Develop and Implement Policies and Procedures That Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Theft – citation #F607 date May 10, 2018
  • According to state surveyors, “the facility failed to implement their abuse and misappropriation policy to prevent misappropriation of a resident’s narcotic medications.” The incident occurred when 31 residents were receiving opioid narcotic medications at the nursing home.”

    As a part of the investigation, it was determined that the resident “had taken narcotic pain medication for the past seven days of the assessment.” At that time, the resident “was at risk for pain due to their medical condition of pain in the wrist. Interventions included narcotic pain medication as needed.”

    However, a review of the resident’s Medication Administration Record (MAR) indicated that on the pain scale the resident was having “no pain.” The resident reveals that she had requested the medication on only a single occasion on April 16, 2018.”

    The Self-Report Incident form indicated that the facility “was able to locate all controlled drug receipt/record/disposition forms” except for the resident’s narcotic medications that contain 60 tablets. The facility notified the police and all nurses who had access from the cart between April 13, 2018, and April 17, 2018 “were drug tested and the results were negative.”

  • Failure to Provide Necessary Care and Services to Maintain the Resident’s Highest Well-Being – citation #F309 date November 2, 2017
  • The nursing home “failed to ensure residents receive adequate care and services for wounds.” In one incident, the resident “had incontinence” associated with their medical condition “located on his right gluteal fold and fungal rash on his groin.”

    The resident’s MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessment “also revealed the resident was admitted to the facility with a Stage III pressure ulcer to his buttocks.” The survey team reviewed the resident’s Treatment Administration Record that indicated in the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) “had already signed off on the day shift treatment as completed, even though there was no Zinc Oxide Ointment or [medicated] powder observed on the resident’s buttocks, gluteal fold or groin, as Physician ordered.

    The surveyors immediately interviewed the LPN who stated “she had signed off on all of her other treatments that morning, but not as of yet completed the treatments. She stated she planned on doing treatments later that day. She confirmed she should not have signed off on the Treatment Administration Record until the treatments were actually completed.”

Client Reviews

★★★★★
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
