Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Magnolia Ridge Health And Rehabilitation Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to properly store food in the main kitchen and 700 Hall Nourishment Room, with unlabeled and undated food items found in both areas. The ice machine in the kitchen also had a brownish buildup. The Dietary Assistant confirmed these issues, which violated the facility's policies requiring food to be labeled, dated, and stored properly, and for ice machines to be regularly cleaned.
The facility failed to complete timely MDS assessments for several residents. Two residents did not have their Medicare 5-day assessments completed within the required timeframe, and two other residents were discharged without a completed discharge MDS. The Regional MDS Coordinator confirmed these deficiencies during interviews.
The facility failed to ensure accurate assessments for two residents. A resident's MDS inaccurately showed anticoagulant use without an active order, while another resident's MDS recorded an incorrect admission date from a previous stay. These inaccuracies were confirmed by the Regional MDS Coordinator.
A facility failed to verify the placement of a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) before administering water and medication to a resident, potentially leading to aspiration or vomiting. An LPN administered substances through the G-tube without aspirating stomach content to confirm correct placement, contrary to the facility's policy and standard procedures. The Director of Nursing outlined the correct procedure, which includes checking placement by listening for air and assessing residuals, but these steps were not followed.
The facility failed to follow infection prevention and control practices during medication administration via G-tube. A nurse placed medications on a table with a urinal without providing a barrier, and another nurse administered enteral feeding to a resident with a G-tube without using appropriate PPE, despite enhanced barrier precautions being required. The DON confirmed these actions were against facility policy and CDC guidelines.
Improper Food Storage and Sanitation in Kitchen and Nourishment Room
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper storage of food products in the main kitchen and one of the nourishment rooms, specifically the 700 Hall Nourishment Room. During an initial tour of the main kitchen, surveyors observed two unlabeled and undated bags of unidentified patties, with one bag open and unsealed, and one unlabeled and undated bag of mixed vegetables in the reach-in cooler. The Dietary Assistant confirmed that these food items should have been labeled, dated, and sealed. Additionally, the ice machine in the kitchen was found to have a brownish, soft buildup at the lip of the inside top rim, which the Dietary Assistant acknowledged. In the 700 Hall Nourishment Room, surveyors found plastic-wrapped burritos and an opened ice cream container in the freezer that were not labeled or dated. The Dietary Assistant stated that these food items should also have been labeled and dated. The facility's policies and procedures, last reviewed in July 2024, require that all food items be covered, labeled, and dated, and that ice machines and equipment be cleaned regularly to maintain sanitary conditions. These observations indicate a failure to adhere to the facility's established food storage and sanitation protocols.
Failure to Complete Timely MDS Assessments for Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to complete comprehensive assessments for the Admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) for four residents. Resident #41 and Resident #176 did not have their Medicare 5-day assessments completed or accepted, as their admission assessments were not opened within the required timeframe of days one to eight. The Regional MDS Coordinator confirmed that these assessments were not in compliance with the date requirements. Additionally, Resident #112 was admitted and later discharged home, but there was no discharge MDS completed within the required 21 days after discharge. Resident #57 was discharged home with his daughter, but the facility did not complete a discharge MDS for this resident either. During an interview, the Regional MDS Coordinator acknowledged the absence of the discharge MDS for Resident #57 and confirmed that it should have been completed. These deficiencies indicate a failure in the facility's process for timely and accurate completion of MDS assessments for residents upon admission and discharge.
Inaccurate Resident Assessments for Anticoagulant Use and Admission Dates
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure accurate resident assessments for two residents. For Resident #90, the Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment inaccurately indicated the resident was receiving anticoagulant medication, despite there being no active order for such medication. The resident had a previous order for Eliquis, an anticoagulant, which had ended, but this was not reflected in the MDS assessment. The Regional MDS Coordinator confirmed the absence of an active order during an interview. For Resident #27, the Entry MDS inaccurately recorded the admission date as the date from a previous stay, rather than the current admission date. This error was acknowledged by the Regional MDS Coordinator during an interview, indicating a failure to update the resident's records accurately.
Failure to Verify G-Tube Placement Before Medication Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the proper verification of gastrostomy tube (G-tube) placement before administering water and medication to a resident, which could lead to possible aspiration or vomiting. During an observation, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) administered water and Guaifenesin Syrup through a resident's G-tube without aspirating the stomach content to verify the correct placement of the tube. The LPN allowed the substances to drain via gravity without performing the necessary checks for tube placement. The Director of Nursing (DON) explained that the standard procedure for administering medications through a G-tube includes checking for placement by putting air through the tube and listening with a stethoscope, as well as assessing for residual by pulling back with a syringe. The facility's policy, last reviewed in July 2024, also requires verification of tube placement by aspirating gastrointestinal content. However, the LPN did not follow these procedures, leading to a deficiency in the care provided to the resident.
Infection Control Lapses During Medication Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper infection prevention and control practices during medication administration via gastrostomy (G-tube). During an observation, a registered nurse placed medications on an overbed table that also held a urinal half full of dark yellow liquid, without removing the urinal or providing a barrier or clean surface between the urinal and the medications. The nurse acknowledged the oversight during an interview, and the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that using a surface with bodily fluids for medication storage is an infection control issue. Additionally, a licensed practical nurse administered a bolus dose of enteral feeding to a resident with a G-tube while wearing only gloves, without using additional personal protective equipment (PPE) such as a gown or goggles, despite the resident being on enhanced barrier precautions. The facility's policy and the CDC guidelines require gown and glove use during high-contact resident care activities, including device care or use like feeding tubes, to prevent the transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). The DON confirmed that enhanced barrier precautions should have been followed for residents with G-tubes.
