Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Bonnie Brae Skilled Nursing during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A facility failed to maintain an effective pest control program, as evidenced by the observation of a cockroach at the nurses' station and daily sightings reported by a resident with multiple chronic conditions. Staff acknowledged the issue as related to cleanliness and infection control, and facility policies required ongoing pest control, but cockroaches remained present despite regular pest control visits.
The facility failed to protect residents from abuse, as a resident with known behavioral issues was not provided with necessary psychiatric evaluations, leading to a verbal and physical altercation with another resident. Despite being aware of the resident's disruptive behavior, the facility did not take appropriate action to prevent the incident, resulting in physical injury.
The facility failed to complete annual competency and performance evaluations for two CNAs, three LVNs, and an RN, as required by policy. The evaluations were either outdated or missing, potentially compromising resident care. The Administrator confirmed the oversight, which was the responsibility of the Director of Staff Development.
The facility failed to properly label, store, or discard medications, including insulin, Aplisol, and Pneumovax 23, according to professional standards. Insulin vials were found without proper labeling, and expired medications were not removed from storage. An expired emergency medication kit was also not replaced, posing a risk to resident safety.
The facility failed to document discussions and provide written information about advance directives for two residents with severe cognitive impairments. Both residents' acknowledgment forms lacked signatures from responsible parties, confirming receipt of information. The Social Services Director confirmed the oversight, violating residents' rights to be informed about advance directive options.
Two residents in an LTC facility had inaccurate MDS assessments, leading to potential delays in care. One resident's COPD diagnosis was omitted, while another's psychiatric diagnoses were not continued after hospital readmission, despite receiving related medications. The facility's policies on accurate MDS completion and psychotropic medication management were not followed, contributing to these deficiencies.
A resident with limited ROM did not receive required quarterly joint mobility assessments, increasing the risk of contractures. Despite an initial assessment showing limitations, no follow-up assessments were documented. The DON and PT acknowledged the oversight, citing high demands and lack of specific policy on assessment timing.
The facility failed to label and date oxygen humidifier bottles for two residents with COPD, as confirmed by an LVN and the DON. This oversight increased the risk of infection control issues, potentially leading to resident discomfort or infection.
The facility did not complete annual performance evaluations for two CNAs, as required by its policy. CNA 1 and CNA 2, hired in 2016 and 2020 respectively, lacked documented evaluations in their files. The Administrator confirmed that the Director of Staff Development was responsible for ensuring these evaluations were completed. This oversight increased the risk of not identifying staff weaknesses, potentially affecting resident care.
Two residents experienced medication errors, resulting in a 12% error rate. A resident was not instructed to properly use their Qvar inhaler, leading to improper dosage. Another resident received a crushed ferrous sulfate tablet instead of the prescribed liquid form and pantoprazole at the wrong time. The errors were acknowledged by the LVN and confirmed by the DON, highlighting a failure to follow physician orders and facility policies.
A resident with Type II diabetes mellitus received insulin injections at the same site repeatedly, contrary to facility policy and manufacturer guidelines. This practice, confirmed by the RN and DON, increased the risk of adverse effects such as lipodystrophy. The facility's policies emphasized the importance of rotating injection sites to minimize adverse consequences.
A facility failed to coordinate hospice care for a resident with severe cognitive impairment and schizophrenia, as there were no documented visits from hospice staff and no hospice care plan. Interviews with staff confirmed the absence of necessary documentation and coordination, which is required by the facility's hospice policy.
A resident's oxygen nasal cannula was found on the floor, posing an infection risk. The resident, with COPD, had a physician's order for oxygen via nasal cannula. An LVN confirmed the cannula should not be on the floor, and the DON stated it should be covered in a plastic bag when not in use. The facility's policy also required this practice.
The facility failed to meet the required square footage per resident in 10 rooms and two single rooms, as observed by the Maintenance Supervisor. Despite some residents and a CNA reporting no issues with room size, the facility's policy mandates specific space requirements, which were not met, resulting in a deficiency.
Failure to Maintain Effective Pest Control Program
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain an effective pest control program, resulting in the presence of cockroaches within the building. During an observation at the nurses' station, a large cockroach was seen crawling on the floor. A registered nurse confirmed the insect was a cockroach and acknowledged that its presence was related to cleanliness and posed a pest control and infection control issue. A resident reported seeing cockroaches daily and expressed concern about the cleanliness of the environment, stating that the situation was not right and could lead to illness. The interim Director of Nursing also stated that cockroaches in the facility could cause residents to become ill, particularly those with weakened immune systems. A review of the facility's pest control policy indicated that the facility was supposed to maintain an ongoing pest control program to keep the building free of insects. The administrator stated that the pest control company visited the facility monthly and as needed, with the most recent visit occurring earlier in the month. Despite these measures, the continued presence of cockroaches was observed and reported by both staff and a resident. The facility's infection prevention and control policy also referenced pest control as part of maintaining a safe and sanitary environment.
Failure to Prevent Resident-to-Resident Abuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect residents from abuse, specifically resident-to-resident verbal and physical abuse, involving two residents. Resident 1 exhibited behavioral symptoms, such as entering other residents' rooms without permission and shouting at them. Despite these behaviors, the facility did not provide necessary behavioral health assessments or refer Resident 1 for psychiatric or psychological evaluations as required by the care plan. This lack of intervention allowed Resident 1's disruptive behavior to continue unchecked. On a specific day, Resident 1 engaged in verbal abuse towards Resident 2, leading to a physical altercation. Resident 1 was yelling and irritating Resident 2, who then struck Resident 1 with a cellphone, causing physical injury. Resident 1 sustained redness and bruising on the right side of the face and complained of blurry vision. The facility's failure to address Resident 1's behavioral issues and provide timely psychiatric consultation contributed to the escalation of the situation. Interviews with staff and residents revealed that Resident 1 was known to be loud and disruptive, often going into other residents' rooms and causing disturbances. Despite these known behaviors, the facility did not perceive Resident 1 as a threat and did not take appropriate action to prevent the altercation. The facility's policies and procedures for resident assessment and abuse prevention were not effectively implemented, resulting in a failure to protect residents from abuse.
Failure to Complete Annual Competency and Performance Evaluations
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that two Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), three Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs), and one Registered Nurse (RN) had completed their annual competency and performance evaluations. This deficiency was identified through interviews and record reviews, revealing that the evaluations were either outdated or missing entirely. Specifically, CNA 1's last competency evaluation was completed in August 2023, while CNA 2's was last done in October 2021. LVN 3 had no records of competency or performance evaluations, LVN 4 had a recent performance evaluation but no competency evaluation, and LVN 5's last competency evaluation was in April 2021. RN 2 also lacked both competency and performance evaluations. The Administrator confirmed that the Director of Staff Development was responsible for ensuring timely completion and updating of these evaluations in employee files. The facility's policy mandates that job performance and competency evaluations be conducted annually. The failure to adhere to these policies potentially compromised the quality of care provided to residents, as acknowledged by the Administrator during the interview.
Medication Storage and Labeling Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that medications were labeled, stored, or discarded according to current professional standards. During an observation, it was found that insulin Humulin R vials for two residents were improperly stored at room temperature without appropriate labeling of the open date. One vial was found without any date indicating when it was opened, while another vial was labeled with an expired date. This oversight led to the potential risk of administering expired insulin, which could be ineffective in managing blood sugar levels. Additionally, in the medication room, two Aplisol multi-dose vials were found stored in the refrigerator with labels indicating they were opened beyond the manufacturer's recommended 30-day usage period. An unopened Pneumovax 23 syringe was also found stored at room temperature, contrary to the manufacturer's requirement for refrigeration. Furthermore, an expired emergency medication kit was not removed or replaced, increasing the risk of using ineffective medications in emergencies. Interviews with the LVN and the DON revealed a lack of adherence to the facility's policies and procedures regarding medication labeling and storage. The DON acknowledged that the emergency medication kit and expired medications should have been removed and replaced. The facility's failure to follow its own policies and the manufacturer's guidelines resulted in the presence of expired and improperly stored medications, posing a risk to resident safety.
Failure to Document Advance Directive Discussions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that residents' medical records were updated to reflect discussions and provision of written information regarding advance directives for two residents. Resident 2, who was admitted with diagnoses including dementia, dysphagia, and gastrostomy, was found to have severe cognitive impairment and was unable to make decisions. The Advance Directive Acknowledgment form for Resident 2, dated January 30, 2024, indicated the resident's incapacity to sign, and there was no signature from the responsible party acknowledging receipt of information about the resident's right to formulate an advance directive. Similarly, Resident 4, admitted with diagnoses of senile degeneration of the brain and schizophrenia, also had severe cognitive impairment and was unable to make decisions. The Advance Directive Acknowledgment form for Resident 4, dated February 1, 2021, similarly lacked a signature from the responsible party. During an interview and record review, the Social Services Director confirmed that written information regarding the right to formulate an advance directive was not provided to the responsible parties for both residents. This oversight violated the residents' rights to be fully informed about their options for advance directives.
Inaccurate Resident Assessments Lead to Care Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure accurate assessments for two residents, leading to deficiencies in their care. Resident 18's Minimum Data Set (MDS) did not include a diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), despite the resident's history and physical records indicating this condition. The MDS Nurse acknowledged the omission and emphasized the importance of including all diagnoses to prevent delayed treatment. The Director of Nursing (DON) also confirmed that all active diagnoses should be reflected in the MDS to avoid missing critical information that could delay care. Resident 25's MDS failed to list psychiatric diagnoses such as depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, despite the resident receiving medications for these conditions. The MDS Nurse noted that these diagnoses were not continued upon the resident's return from the General Acute Care Hospital (GACH), leading to a potential delay in care continuity. The Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) confirmed the importance of matching diagnoses with medications to ensure proper treatment. The DON explained that the admitting nurse should verify all diagnoses during re-admission, but this process was not followed, resulting in the omission. The facility's policies and procedures require accurate completion and signing of the MDS assessment form, as well as proper management of psychotropic medications, including monitoring for efficacy and adverse effects. However, these protocols were not adhered to, leading to the deficiencies observed in the residents' care. The failure to accurately document and continue diagnoses upon re-admission contributed to the potential for delayed treatment and improper medication management.
Failure to Conduct Quarterly Joint Mobility Assessments
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident with limited range of motion (ROM) received quarterly joint mobility assessments, as required. Resident 11, who was admitted with a diagnosis of muscle weakness, had an initial joint mobility assessment indicating limitations, but no subsequent assessments were documented. This lack of follow-up assessments increased the risk of contractures and hindered the ability to monitor and maintain the resident's mobility. Interviews with the Director of Nursing (DON) and the Physical Therapist (PT) revealed that the facility lacked a specific policy on the timing of joint mobility assessments, although a general policy on resident mobility and ROM existed. The DON acknowledged that quarterly assessments should occur every three months, but no recent assessments were found for Resident 11. The PT admitted that despite a low workload, the demands were high, and many residents, including Resident 11, had not been reassessed, leaving no measurement of progress.
Failure to Label Respiratory Equipment in COPD Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide necessary respiratory care services for two residents diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Both residents, identified as Resident 18 and Resident 34, had oxygen humidifier bottles that were not labeled or dated, which is a requirement according to the facility's policy. This oversight was confirmed during observations and interviews with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1) and the Director of Nursing (DON). The lack of labeling on the oxygen humidifier bottles increased the risk of infection control issues, potentially leading to resident discomfort or infection. Resident 18 was admitted with a diagnosis of COPD and had a physician's order for oxygen at two liters per minute via nasal cannula as needed. The resident's care plan indicated a risk for respiratory distress, yet the oxygen humidifier bottle was not labeled or dated. Similarly, Resident 34, also diagnosed with COPD, had a physician's order for oxygen administration under specific conditions. During an observation, it was noted that both the oxygen humidifier bottle and nasal cannula were not labeled or dated. The DON confirmed the importance of labeling respiratory equipment to ensure timely changes and prevent potential health risks.
Failure to Complete Annual Performance Evaluations for CNAs
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that two Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) had completed annual performance evaluations, which is a requirement according to the facility's policy and procedure. CNA 1, hired on April 23, 2016, and CNA 2, hired on August 13, 2020, both lacked documented performance evaluations in their employee files. During an interview and record review with the Administrator, it was confirmed that the Director of Staff Development was responsible for ensuring these evaluations were completed and updated in the files. The absence of these evaluations was acknowledged by the Administrator, who noted the potential risk to the quality of care provided to residents due to this oversight. The facility's policy, revised in 2024, mandates that employee job performance be reviewed and evaluated at least annually. The failure to adhere to this policy resulted in an increased risk of not identifying areas of weakness in staff performance, potentially affecting the services provided to residents.
Medication Administration Errors Lead to High Error Rate
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a medication error rate of 5% or lower, resulting in a 12% error rate during a survey. This was due to three medication errors observed among 35 opportunities for two residents. Resident 34 was not instructed to properly use their Qvar inhaler, leading to medication escaping and not being fully inhaled. This was contrary to the manufacturer's instructions, which require a full seal around the mouthpiece to ensure proper dosage. Resident 36 experienced two medication errors. The resident was administered a crushed ferrous sulfate tablet instead of the prescribed liquid form, and the pantoprazole oral packet was given at an incorrect time. The Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) acknowledged these errors, noting that the administration did not follow the physician's orders or the facility's policy, which allows a 60-minute window for medication administration. The Director of Nursing confirmed these errors, emphasizing the importance of following physician orders and manufacturer instructions to prevent potential harm. The facility's policies on medication administration and error prevention were not adhered to, contributing to the observed deficiencies.
Failure to Rotate Insulin Injection Sites
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from significant medication errors related to insulin administration. Specifically, the facility did not rotate the subcutaneous injection sites for insulin administration for a resident with Type II diabetes mellitus. The resident was prescribed Humulin 70/30 insulin to be administered subcutaneously once a day in the morning and in the evening. However, the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for November 2024 showed that the insulin was repeatedly administered in the same site, the right arm, by several licensed nurses over multiple days. Interviews with a Registered Nurse (RN) and the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that the failure to rotate injection sites was against facility policy, standard practice, and manufacturer guidelines. This practice increased the risk of adverse effects such as lipodystrophy and cutaneous amyloidosis. The facility's policies and procedures emphasized the importance of rotating injection sites to minimize adverse consequences, as outlined in the manufacturer's guide for Humulin 70/30.
Lack of Coordination in Hospice Care for Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure consistent coordination of care for a resident receiving hospice services, leading to a deficiency in the provision of necessary care. Resident 4, who was admitted with diagnoses including senile degeneration of the brain and schizophrenia, was supposed to receive hospice care as per the physician's orders. However, a review of the hospice records revealed that there were no signatures from a skilled nurse or home health aide on the sign-in sheets, indicating a lack of documented visits. Additionally, there was no hospice care plan in place for Resident 4, which is crucial for addressing the specific needs of the resident. Interviews with facility staff, including a Registered Nurse and the Director of Nursing, confirmed the absence of documented hospice visits and a care plan. The RN acknowledged the importance of ensuring hospice staff visits and having a care plan, while the DON emphasized the need for hospice staff to sign in and maintain a care plan to prevent compromising the resident's care. The facility's policy on hospice care mandates coordination with hospice representatives to meet the resident's needs, which was not adhered to in this case.
Infection Control Deficiency: Oxygen Cannula on Floor
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide a safe and sanitary environment for a resident, identified as Resident 34, when the resident's oxygen nasal cannula was observed on the floor. This incident was noted during an observation and interview with an LVN, who confirmed that the nasal cannula should not be on the floor due to infection control concerns. The resident, who was admitted with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), had a physician's order for oxygen administration via nasal cannula as needed for shortness of breath and low oxygen saturation levels. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that the nasal cannula should be covered in a plastic bag when not in use to prevent infection, as the floor is considered a dirty surface. The facility's policy on infection prevention for respiratory therapy also indicated that oxygen cannulae and tubing should be kept in a plastic bag when not in use. Despite these guidelines, the nasal cannula was found on the floor, posing a risk of contamination and infection to the resident.
Deficiency in Room Size Requirements
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that 10 out of 22 rooms met the required 80 square feet per resident in multiple occupancy rooms and failed to ensure that two rooms met the required 100 square feet for single occupancy. This deficiency was identified during an observation and interview process. The Maintenance Supervisor measured several rooms, and it was found that Rooms 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 15, 18, 13, and 24 did not meet the required space per resident. Additionally, two single rooms did not meet the 100 square feet requirement. The measurements were consistent with a client accommodation analysis conducted earlier. Interviews with residents and staff revealed that some residents, such as Resident 3 and Resident 12, did not express concerns about the room sizes, indicating they were able to move around without issues. A Certified Nurse Assistant also reported no concerns with the room size while providing care. Despite these individual experiences, the facility's policy requires specific square footage per resident, which was not met, leading to the deficiency.
