  • Failure to Respond Appropriately to All Alleged Violations – citation #F610 date September 5, 2019
  • The state investigators determined the nursing home "failed to investigate an allegation of neglect and report the results of the investigation to the State Survey Agency within five working days,” as required by law.

    On September 5, 2019, during the morning hours, the resident “indicated requiring help from staff for mobility and hygiene care.” The resident reported that “staff did not provide care [timely].” The resident reported “trying not to poop out of fear he would not receive assistance.” The resident described “going up to twenty-four hours without care [and explained that] staff did not talk to him, and he felt ignored.”

    The resident “recalled reporting the issue to a staff member but was not sure which staff member [and indicated that] the facility had not informed [him] of a response to the concern.”

    The Director of Nursing indicated “being responsible for investigating and reporting allegations of abuse and neglect, in conjunction with the Administrator.” The Director indicated that “abuse allegations were investigated by interviews with staff and residents. The investigation was completed within five days of the notification.”

    However, the Director verbalized that “the resident reported not having received incontinence care, lying wet and soiled for periods of up to three days.” The Director recalled the resident, “verbally reported an allegation of neglect during a care conference meeting.” The Director “was unable to provide documented evidence an investigation had been performed regarding [this resident’s] allegation.”

  • Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F689 date December 12, 2018
  • The “facility failed to ensure a Physician’s order to place the bed in the lowest position was performed for [one resident].” The Physician’s order documented that the bed would remain in the lowest position with floor mats on every shift, as a fall precaution.

    However, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) confirmed that the resident “was a fall risk and there was an order for [keeping the bed in the lowest position] and using fall mats.” The LPN indicated that “if the fall intervention was not signed or documented, it was considered not done at all.”

    The Director of Nursing explained that “staff was expected to follow the Physician’s orders [and confirmed] there was a fall prevention order for the bed in the lowest position and floor mats at the bedside and [it was] not signed in the Medication Administration Record for several occasions.”

★★★★★
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
