The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to ensure an alleged violation involving verbal abuse was reported within two hours to the Division of Licensing” as required by law.
On June 26, 2018, “the Division of Licensing and Certification received from the facility the facts which indicated an allegation of verbal abuse toward [five residents] by a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) who was witnessed raising his/her voice in a derogatory manner.” The CNA was using “profanity while working with the residents.”
The Nursing Facility Reportable Incident Form revealed “the date of the alleged incident to have occurred on the evening of June 22, 2018.” The facility Administrator confirmed during an interview that “the facility did not notify the Division of Licensing and Certification of the allegation of alleged verbal abuse until [four days] after the initial alleged incident” in violation of state and federal laws.
The facility “failed to ensure that a resident was free from injury when the facility failed to properly transfer a resident, causing the resident to sustain a laceration resulting in receiving twenty-six stitches.”
Additionally, based on observations and interviews, “the facility failed to ensure that hot water temperatures, accessible to residents, did not exceed 120°F on one of four days of the survey.”
In one incident, a review of a resident’s records indicated that this resident “requires extensive assist with bathing, dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, and bed mobility.” The Division of Licensing and Certification received a facility Reportable Incident Form that indicated that on November 29, 2018, at 8:30 AM, the resident “was being transferred out of bed to the wheelchair received a laceration to the right rear lower extremity.”
The nursing home notified emergency medical services, and the resident was transferred to the hospital. The investigation revealed that a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) was not in the room with another CNA when the resident was “transferred with the total lift from the bed.” The Event Summary Report indicates that the “employee was attempting to transfer the resident [alone] and failed to get a second person and did not remove the leg rest.”
