Federal rules call for a standard inspection at least every 15 months, plus a visit whenever a complaint is filed. Each mark below is one citation, colored by how serious inspectors rated it. How to read a citation.
Under each citation, the quoted text is the inspector's own summary from the federal statement of deficiencies (CMS form 2567), word for word apart from a privacy scrub; CMS removes residents' and staff names before it publishes the text. The full notes are on Medicare.gov.
CMS rates every citation by how much harm it caused (rows) and how many residents it touched (columns). The count in each box is this home's, across all 11 health citations on file.
Inspectors wroteBased on staff interviews and record review, the facility failed to protect four of four male residents (R) (R127, R12, R105, and R106) right to be free from sexual abuse by R147. Specifically, the facility failed to protect R127, R12, R105, and R106 from R147s' known inappropriate hypersexual behaviors.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and review of the facility policy titled, Restraints, the facility failed to ensure one of one Resident (R) (R102) reviewed for physical restraints was not physically restrained by being in bed with a Geri-chair and a regular chair placed up against her bed, blocking her ability to get out of her bed on one side.
Inspectors wroteBased on staff interviews, record review, and review of the facility policy titled, Abuse Prohibition-Reporting and Investigating, the facility failed to report allegations of sexual abuse for two of four male residents (R) (R106, and R107) reviewed for abuse related to R147's inappropriate hypersexual behaviors.
Inspectors wroteBased on staff interviews and record review, and review of the facility's policy titled, Abuse Prohibition-Reporting and Investigating, the facility failed to investigate allegations of abuse for two of four male residents (R) (R106, and R107) related to R147's known inappropriate hypersexual behaviors. The facility failed to identify and investigate allegations of resident-to-resident sexual abuse after resident R147 was observed in R106's room and sitting on R106's lap and then stroking and rubbing R105's face. This failure had the potential for additional male residents to be sexually abused by R147.
Inspectors wroteBased on observations, record review, staff interviews, and review of the facility policy titled, Fall Management, the facility failed to properly assess one of four Residents (R) (R45) for the use of a Geri-chair. The use of a Geri-chair without a proper therapy assessment created the potential for R45 to sustain falls with potential injuries.
Inspectors wroteBased on interviews and document review, the facility failed to ensure one of one Resident (R) (R1) urinalysis was completed timely. This had the potential to delay the resident's treatment of abnormal laboratory results.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and review of facility policies titled, Personal Hygiene, the facility failed to properly don (put on) a hair restraint while working in one of three kitchenettes (an area in which the food was served). This had the potential to increase the risk of foodborne illnesses that would affect 54 residents receiving an oral diet.
Inspectors wroteBased on observations, interviews, record review, review of the facility policy titled, Transmission-Based Precautions, and Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidance, the facility failed to adhere to infection control practices and policies for one of two residents Resident (R) (R130). Specifically, the facility failed to ensure staff wore a gown for a resident on Enhanced Barrier Precautions while bathing and during wound care. The deficient practice increased the risk for cross contamination and infections.
Inspectors wroteBased on interview, record review, and review of the facility's policy titled, Laboratory, Radiological, and other Diagnostic Services, the facility failed to ensure that laboratory tests were obtained as ordered by the physician, for one of 13 sampled residents (R) (R1).
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and review of the facility's Wound Care manual, the facility failed to ensure that pressure ulcers were thoroughly and routinely assessed for two of 10 residents (R) (R8 and R9).
Inspectors wroteBased on observations, record review, staff interviews, and review of facility policies titled, Skilled Nursing Services Handwashing and Pharmacy Services Oral Inhalation and Nebulizer Administration, the facility failed to maintain infection control standard precautions by not performing proper hand hygiene during administration of eye drops, not cleaning the mouthpiece of inhalers after administration, and not properly disinfecting a basket used for medication administration. The deficient practice had the probability to increase the potential for residents to contract an infectious disease.
