Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Odebolt Specialty Care during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility inaccurately documented medication use for three residents in their MDS assessments. One resident was incorrectly recorded as receiving hypnotic medications, another as receiving anticoagulants, and a third as taking antianxiety medication, despite no corresponding physician's orders or administration records. Staff interviews confirmed these discrepancies.
The facility failed to provide comprehensive care plans for two residents regarding their high-risk medications. A resident with anxiety disorder and non-Alzheimer's dementia was receiving antidepressants, but their care plan lacked focus, goals, or interventions for these medications. Another resident with a history of stroke and intellectual disabilities was on antiplatelet medication, yet their care plan did not reflect this. Both a Registered Nurse and the Director of Nursing confirmed the expectation for accurate care plans, as per the facility's policy.
A facility failed to document vital signs and conduct a nursing assessment for a resident who returned from the ER after experiencing chest pain. Despite the resident's history of schizoaffective disorder and chronic lung disease, the facility did not follow its policy on managing acute condition changes, as confirmed by the DON.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment and high fall risk fell in the bathhouse when a CNA assisted them without a gait belt, contrary to facility policy. The resident, on anticoagulant medication, slipped on a wet floor, resulting in a bruise after hitting the whirlpool tub.
A resident with a suprapubic catheter was at risk for infections due to staff failing to follow enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) during catheter care. Two CNAs did not wear gowns as required, did not change gloves between tasks, and handled supplies without barriers. Despite being trained on EBP, the staff forgot to wear gowns, leading to a deficiency in infection prevention protocols.
A resident with cognitive impairments and a history of wandering fell down 13 concrete stairs in her wheelchair after kitchen staff left doors propped open and unsupervised. The resident sustained multiple injuries, including a laceration to her forehead and bruising. The facility's failure to secure doors and provide adequate supervision led to the accident.
Inaccurate Medication Documentation in MDS Assessments
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to accurately assess and document the medication use of three residents during the observation period of the Minimum Data Set (MDS). For Resident #26, the MDS indicated the use of hypnotic medications for seven days, but the Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR) showed no physician's order for such medication. Similarly, Resident #27's MDS reported the use of anticoagulant medications for seven days, yet the EHR lacked any corresponding physician's order. Interviews with a Registered Nurse and the Director of Nursing confirmed that these residents were not on the medications as documented in the MDS. Additionally, Resident #24's MDS assessment inaccurately recorded the use of antianxiety medication over the last seven days, despite the Medication Administration Record showing no such medication was administered. The MDS Coordinator acknowledged the error in coding the MDS for Resident #24. The facility's policy on certifying the accuracy of resident assessments emphasizes that the information should reflect the resident's status during the observation period, which was not adhered to in these cases.
Deficiency in Comprehensive Care Plans for High-Risk Medications
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide comprehensive care plans for two residents regarding their high-risk medications. Resident #26, diagnosed with anxiety disorder and non-Alzheimer's dementia, was receiving antidepressant medications, including Trazadone and Escitalopram, daily. However, the care plan for Resident #26 did not include any focus, goals, or interventions related to these antidepressant medications. This oversight was confirmed by a Registered Nurse (RN) during an interview, who acknowledged that the care plan should have reflected the medication regimen. Similarly, Resident #27, who had diagnoses of non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, stroke, and moderate intellectual disabilities, was receiving antiplatelet medication. However, the care plan for Resident #27 did not include any focus, goals, or interventions for antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications. The RN confirmed that Resident #27 was not on an anticoagulant but was taking an antiplatelet medication, and the care plan should have reflected this. The Director of Nursing (DON) also confirmed the expectation for accurate care plans to be completed, aligning with the facility's policy for comprehensive, person-centered care plans.
Failure to Document and Assess Resident Post-ER Visit
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide necessary assessment and interventions for a resident who returned from the emergency room (ER) after experiencing chest pain. The resident, who had intact cognition and a history of schizoaffective disorder, anxiety disorder, shortness of breath, and chronic lung disease, was sent to the ER due to chest pain and low blood pressure. Upon return from the ER, the facility did not document the resident's vital signs or conduct a nursing assessment, which was expected by the Director of Nursing (DON) for 72 hours post-return. The clinical record lacked documentation of the resident's condition upon return from the ER, and there was no follow-up focus nursing assessment related to the chest pain. The facility's policy on acute condition changes required that any acute changes be identified and managed properly, including reviewing hospitalization details to identify potential complications. However, this was not adhered to, as evidenced by the lack of documentation and assessment upon the resident's return.
Inadequate Supervision Leads to Resident Fall
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide adequate nursing supervision to prevent accidents and injuries for a resident with severe cognitive impairment and a high risk for falls. The resident, who required partial to moderate assistance with daily activities and had a history of falls, was involved in an incident where a CNA assisted the resident out of a whirlpool chair without using a gait belt, resulting in a fall. The resident, who had multiple diagnoses including atrial fibrillation and non-Alzheimer's dementia, was on anticoagulant medication, which increased the risk of injury from falls. The incident report documented that the resident slipped on a wet floor in the bathhouse, hitting the right side of their back on the whirlpool tub, resulting in a bruise that could potentially develop into a hematoma. The facility's policy required the use of appropriate techniques and devices, such as gait belts, to ensure resident safety during transfers. However, the staff failed to adhere to these protocols, leading to the resident's fall and subsequent injury.
Failure to Follow Enhanced Barrier Precautions During Catheter Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a safe and sanitary environment to prevent the transmission of infections for a resident with a suprapubic catheter. The resident, who had moderately impaired cognition and required substantial assistance with daily activities, was at risk for infections due to the catheter. The care plan directed staff to perform catheter care every shift and follow enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) during high-contact care activities. However, during an observation, staff did not adhere to these precautions. During the observed catheter care, two certified nursing assistants (CNAs) did not wear gowns as required by the EBP policy. They washed their hands and wore gloves but failed to change gloves between dirty and clean tasks. The CNAs handled supplies without using a barrier and did not change gloves when moving from cleaning the resident's abdominal area to handling the catheter tubing and other tasks. The CNAs acknowledged their failure to wear gowns and reported they had been trained on EBP but forgot to put the gowns on during the procedure. The facility's policies on hand hygiene and EBP emphasize the importance of using gloves and gowns to prevent the spread of infections. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the expectation for staff to use barriers with supplies, wear gowns during catheter care, and change gloves between tasks. Despite these policies, the staff's actions during the observed catheter care did not align with the facility's infection prevention protocols, leading to a deficiency in maintaining a sanitary environment for the resident.
Resident Falls Down Stairs Due to Unsecured Doors
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to prevent an accident involving a resident with cognitive impairments who was known to wander. The incident occurred when kitchen staff left the main kitchen door propped open and unsupervised, allowing the resident to self-propel into the kitchen, through two more doors, and ultimately fall down 13 concrete stairs in her wheelchair. The resident was found at the bottom of the basement stairs by a kitchen staff member who heard her yelling for help. The resident sustained multiple injuries, including a laceration to her forehead and bruising to her face, neck, and arms. The resident had a history of cognitive impairments and was at risk for falls, as documented in her care plan. She was known to propel herself throughout the facility in her wheelchair independently and had a history of wandering. On the day of the incident, the resident was last seen at the nurse's station before she was found at the bottom of the stairs. Staff members were unaware of her whereabouts during the time she accessed the kitchen and fell down the stairs. The facility's investigation revealed that the kitchen door was left open during meal service, which was a common practice, and the basement door was also open. Staff interviews indicated that the resident was known to wander and required supervision, but the doors leading to non-resident areas were not secured, allowing her to access hazardous areas. The facility's failure to ensure that doors were closed and locked, and to provide adequate supervision, directly contributed to the resident's accident.
Removal Plan
- The facility audited all non-resident locked doors in the facility ensuring they were all locked and closed.
- The DON, Social Worker and Administrator began to call staff to educate them that all locked doors must remain shut and locked unless staff are present.
- Kitchen door will be audited upon completion of meal service daily for two weeks then weekly.
- Missing resident drills will be completed on varying shifts daily for two weeks then weekly.
