Health deficiencies cited at Newton Village Health Care Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment and multiple diagnoses was not provided with adequate support to maintain her walking abilities after moving from assisted living to a nursing facility. Despite a care plan that included the use of an AFO for walking, the resident was not engaged in walking activities, and staff misunderstood her previous abilities. The facility's therapy program only included seated exercises, and there was no restorative aide available to assist with ambulation.
Failure to Maintain Resident's Ambulation Abilities
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide appropriate services to maintain or improve the ambulation abilities of a resident with severe cognitive impairment and multiple diagnoses, including non-Alzheimer's dementia and muscle weakness. The resident, who previously walked with supervision in an assisted living facility, was not provided with adequate support to maintain her walking abilities upon admission to the nursing facility. Despite a care plan that included a functional maintenance plan and the use of an Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) for walking, the resident was observed not wearing the AFO and was not engaged in walking activities. The facility's records showed a lack of documentation regarding the resident's ambulation, and interviews with staff revealed a misunderstanding of the resident's previous abilities and current needs. The Director of Nursing (DON) and therapy staff were under the impression that the resident was not walking prior to admission, despite family reports to the contrary. The facility's therapy program only included seated group exercises, and there was no restorative aide available to assist with ambulation. The DON acknowledged a lack of communication with the family regarding the resident's walking abilities and confirmed that therapy was not recommended beyond seated exercises. The facility's policy on restorative nursing and functional maintenance was not effectively implemented, resulting in the resident not receiving the necessary support to maintain her functional abilities.
