Health deficiencies cited at Scott County Nursing Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to follow infection control protocols, with CNAs not performing hand hygiene before and after glove use during resident care.

These deficiencies were observed across multiple instances, indicating a lapse in adherence to the facility's infection prevention policies.
A facility failed to prevent the misappropriation of a resident's Ativan by an LPN, who was caught on surveillance footage taking the medication from a locked refrigerator and leaving the facility with it. The medication was intended for a deceased resident and was awaiting destruction. The LPN denied involvement despite evidence, and the incident was reported to authorities. The LPN was suspended and terminated after the investigation.
Infection Control Deficiencies in Hand Hygiene and Barrier Precautions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to proper infection prevention and control protocols, specifically in hand hygiene and glove usage, for several residents. Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) were observed donning gloves without performing hand hygiene before and after resident care. For instance, CNAs V8 and V15 did not wash their hands before putting on gloves or after removing them while providing care to residents R25 and R13. This lack of hand hygiene was consistent across multiple instances, including when CNAs V7 and V8 provided care to residents R21 and R27, failing to perform hand hygiene before and after glove use. Additionally, the facility did not implement Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) for residents with chronic wounds, as required by their policy. Resident R12, who had a stage 2 pressure ulcer and other wounds, was not placed under EBP, and there was no signage indicating the need for such precautions. This oversight was noted when Registered Nurse V19 and another nurse were about to perform wound care without the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) until reminded. The facility's policies on glove changing and hand washing, as well as the Enhanced Barrier Precautions policy, were not followed, leading to potential cross-contamination and infection risks. The administrator acknowledged the importance of hand hygiene and the need for EBP for residents with wounds, but the staff did not consistently adhere to these protocols, as evidenced by the observations and interviews conducted during the survey.
Misappropriation of Resident's Medication by LPN
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to prevent the misappropriation of a resident's medication, specifically concentrated liquid Ativan, by a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). The incident involved the LPN removing approximately 29.75 ml of Ativan from a locked refrigerator in the nurse medication room. Surveillance footage captured the LPN taking the medication, placing it in her purse, and leaving the facility with it. The medication was intended for a resident who had passed away, and it was awaiting destruction in accordance with facility policy. The LPN denied any involvement despite the evidence from the surveillance footage. The facility's administrator was notified of the missing medication and initiated an investigation, which included reviewing surveillance footage and interviewing staff. The investigation revealed that the LPN had disposed of the medication box and pharmacy documents in a shred box. The facility reported the incident to local law enforcement, the Illinois Department of Public Health, and other relevant authorities. The LPN was suspended and subsequently terminated following the investigation. The facility had conducted a background check and license review prior to hiring the LPN, which showed no prior disciplinary actions or concerns.
