- Failure to Ensure Residents are Free From Significant Medication Errors – citation #F760 date March 15, 2019
- Failure to Honor the Resident’s Right to a Dignified Existence, Self-Determination, Communication, and Exercise His or Her Rights – citation #F550 date February 23, 2018
The state investigators determined that the nursing home failed to apply and remove medication patches, containing medications “to manage localized pain”, according to Physician’s orders. The investigation involved a moderately cognitively impaired resident, observed to “have medicated patches applied to her skin.”
On March 13, 2019, at 7:50 AM, a nurse administered medications to the resident. Before applying the patches, the nurse removed other patches from the resident’s back with a date of March 10, 2019, [that came] off the shoulder, one dated March 11, 2019, [that came] off the left hip, and one dated March 11, 2019, [that came] off the left knee.
The Physician’s Assistant helped provide care to the resident and found patches with dates that had been applied to the resident. The Physician’s Assistant said that “she would expect the [patches] to be applied to the resident for twelve hours, then removed, and for the patches to remain off [of] her [for] twelve hours, [according to] orders.”
The “facility failed to provide care in a dignified manner for [one resident], by failing to be at a high level while feeding assistance was provided.” The nursing staff “told the resident he was heavy, placed a paper napkin under the resident’s chin without consent, attempted to feed the resident while he slept, and dressed the resident [in a] visibly torn hospital gown.”
While attempting to feed the resident, a Nursing Assistant “placed his hand on the resident’s chin and stated, ‘you have to wake up,’ before feeding the resident a spoonful of oatmeal.” In response, the resident “spit the food out and [the Nursing Assistant said], ‘do not spit your food out. Come on, stay awake so you can eat.’ He then attempted to place another spoonful of oatmeal into the resident’s mouth.”
