- Failure to Protect Every Resident from a Wrongful Use of the Resident’s Belongings or Money – citation #F602 date December 7, 2018

The state investigators determined the nursing home "failed to prevent misappropriation of property when an employee stole a resident’s bank debit card and used the card to make unauthorized withdrawals of money from the resident’s bank account.” The investigation involved a cognitively intact resident who “needed the assistance of two people for bed mobility and transfers.”
The Initial Allegation Report, dated May 26, 2018, revealed there was “an allegation made that [a Nursing Assistant] had stolen and used a resident’s bank debit card to make unauthorized charges.” The Police Report involving the investigation revealed an officer was “called out to the facility, and a report regarding the allegations had been done.”
The investigation found that the staff member returned the bank debit card to the resident and “reimbursed $575.00 of unauthorized charges. The facility found there was reasonable suspicion of a crime and the allegation was substantiated.” The Nursing Assistant was terminated.
The “facility failed to maintain safe hot water temperatures at or below 160°F in seven bathrooms checked for hot water temperatures.”
One resident said that “she had not noticed the hot water in the bathroom [was] very hot. The hot water was turned on and found to be very hot. At 3:35 PM [that day], the Maintenance Director checked the hot water in [that resident’s] bathroom sink with his calibrated thermometer.” The water “registered 138.6°F.”
The bathroom sink temperatures were checked in numerous rooms and found to range between 110°F to 140°F. The Maintenance Director said that “he had been working with the boiler and the meter for the week [before] in finding that high temperature.” The Administrator stated that they were “ aware of the problem with the meter.”
The Administrator indicated that “temperature checks would be done daily until two weeks of consistently acceptable temperatures were recorded. The Administrator expected that [the water temperatures] would be safe.”
