Avon Indiana Nursing Home Safety Concerns

One Star Rating

The state of Indiana and the federal government regularly updates its long-term care home database system with complete details of all deficiencies, 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 four out of five stars for quality measures.

  • Failure to Ensure the Residents with Reduced Range of Motion Get Proper Treatment and Services to Increase the Range of Motion – citation #F318 date September 15, 2017
  • According to investigators, “the facility failed to provide services to ensure that a resident with limited range of motion received appropriate treatment and services to increase range of motion and further prevent a decrease in range of motion.” The investigation involved a resident that currently “had a contracture (defined as a condition of fixed high resistance to passive stretch of a muscle) of the right upper extremity.”

    The resident “did not wear a splint or receive range of motion (ROM) exercise.” At that time, the resident “was observed sitting in a wheelchair at the nurse’s station” while “not wearing a splint on her right upper extremity.

    The surveyors reviewed the resident’s Care Plan that indicated the resident had “a loss of a range of motion related to physical limitations.” The Care Plan included interventions including “apply splints to the right elbow as indicated, report signs and symptoms of alteration and skin integrity. Assess for and report any discomfort during the range of motion exercises or care related to contractures.”

    The resident’s current Physician’s orders included a “right hand splint to be worn during the day as tolerated, checked for skin issues.” However, when the investigators reviewed the Progress Notes over the last thirty days, the notations “did not reveal any documentation related to splint use or range of motion.”

  • Failure to Develop and Implement a Program That Investigates, Controls and Keeps Infection from Spreading – citation #F4418 September 15, 2017
  • The nursing home “failed to keep residents free of lice (a parasitic insect of the human scalp, exclusively feeding on human blood) for [four residents] living in the facility.” The nursing home also “failed to prevent urinary catheter tubing from touching the floor for [two residents] randomly observed with urinary catheter tubing on the floor.”

    The Director of Nursing at the facility provided a Lice Investigation Timeline showing that the resident “received services in the beauty shop.” One of the three residents “was found with lice and treated; all other residents were cleared of lice by a head check.”

★★★★★
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
