  • The state investigators determined that the nursing home failed to ensure a resident’s “nebulizer mask was stored, covered on two of two days of the survey, and the laundry staff applied Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) [before] handling dirty linen on June 1, 2017. These deficient practices “affected [one resident] observed with a nebulizer machine and had the potential to affect 133 residents utilizing linen at the facility.”

  • Failure to Provide and Implement an Infection Protection and Control Program – citation #F880 date July 19, 2018
  • The facility “failed to ensure licensed staff did not follow protocol and without gloves [and] without washing her hands, returned to the medication cart to prepare the resident’s medication.”

    The nursing home also failed to ensure that “a licensed staff did not drop a tablet on the medication cart, then pick up the tablet with her bare hands and place it on a pill splitter. She further failed to wash her hands when leaving [the resident’s] room and returned to the medication cart.”

    Further, the clothing and other items from both residents “were not removed from [the second room] after bed bugs were also discovered in that room.” Further, the second room “was not cleaned and vacuumed as outlined in the facility’s Quality Assurance Committee Action and Bed Bugs Policy.”

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
