- Failure to Develop Programs That Investigate, Control and Keep Infections from Spreading – citation #F441 date June 2, 2017
- Failure to Keep Accurate, Complete and Organize Clinical Records on Each Resident That Meet Professional Standards – citation #F514 date June 2, 2017
The facility “failed to perform hand hygiene to prevent the spread of infection.” The state investigators observed the 100 Hall Nurse’s Station that revealed a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) preparing the resident’s medication. At that time, the LPN donned gloves and walked into the resident’s room, knocked on the door, “stopped the tube feeding pump, turned on the faucet with her gloved hand, obtained a cup of water, and turned the water off with her gloved hand.”
The LPN “then disconnected the feeding tube, checked placement by aspiration and auscultation [listening to the body’s internal sounds], flushed the tube with water, administered the medication to the tube, flushed the tube with water, reconnected the feeding, discarded her trash, rinsed the syringe used to administer the medication and placed the syringe in the bag.”
However, the LPN “failed to remove her soiled gloves and perform hand hygiene [before] administering medication to [the resident].” The Director of Nursing confirmed that it was unacceptable “to put on gloves at the nurse’s station, touch items in the room, obtain water from a faucet, turn off the faucet, and administer medications through a Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) tube without performing hand hygiene and changing gloves.”
The nursing home “failed to ensure the medical record was complete and accurate for [one resident].” The state investigators reviewed facility documentation guideline policies and the Nurse’s Notes/Progress Notes used to record the patient status and track changes in their condition.
Next, the investigator’s reviewed the medical record of a resident who had expired at the facility. The Nurse’s Note indicated that the resident “was alert and oriented, receiving oxygen at liters per minute, and had no shortness of breath or pain.”
The document indicates that the staff was “tending to the roommate, then proceeded to check on the patient and found him with no blood pressure, no pulse, and no respirations.” The resident was “discharged to the nursing home.”
Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F689 date June 20, 2018
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to keep the environment free of accident hazards as evidenced by the presence of mouthwash and aerosol cans in [two resident rooms].” The Director of Nursing confirmed that it was unacceptable “to have aerosol cans of hairspray at the bedside.”
