Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Deridder Retirement & Rehab Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A cognitively impaired resident was sexually abused by another resident with a history of inappropriate behavior. The impaired resident, unable to consent, was found in a compromising situation with the other resident, who had previously exhibited similar behaviors. Despite interventions in place, the facility failed to prevent the incident.
A facility failed to accurately code a resident's inappropriate behavior in the MDS, despite documentation in nurses' notes. The resident, with a history of cognitive and psychiatric disorders, attempted inappropriate contact with another resident, requiring staff intervention and one-on-one supervision. The facility's staff acknowledged the coding error, which did not reflect the behavior during the lookback period.
A resident with hemiplegia and a history of requiring two-person assistance for transfers was injured when a CNA attempted a transfer alone, resulting in a fall and a fracture. The resident's care plan specified the need for two-person assistance, which was not followed, leading to the incident.
The facility failed to provide necessary nail care for three residents who were unable to perform ADLs independently. A resident with chronic conditions and requiring substantial assistance was observed with untrimmed nails and a dark substance under the nail bed, despite expressing a desire for nail care. Another resident, dependent on staff for bathing, had similarly untrimmed nails. A third resident with moderate cognitive impairment also had long, unclean nails, and despite requests for care, the deficiency persisted. The DON and an LPN acknowledged the need for staff assistance in these cases.
A facility failed to manage respiratory equipment properly for a resident with chronic respiratory conditions. Observations showed that oxygen tubing was not changed or labeled as required, with tubing on the concentrator dated over a month old and the tubing on the wheelchair not covered or dated. Staff interviews confirmed that the weekend night nurse was responsible for these tasks, which were not completed as per protocol.
A resident with a history of diabetes, osteoarthritis, and a rotator cuff tear did not receive prescribed Belbuca for pain management due to a communication error between the facility and pharmacy. Despite being prescribed Tramadol, the resident continued to experience significant pain. The LPN was unaware of the medication's status, and the DON confirmed the pharmacy sent an authorization form to the wrong fax number, leading to a missed medication order.
Failure to Protect Resident from Sexual Abuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect a resident from sexual abuse by another resident. The incident involved a cognitively impaired resident who was unable to consent to sexual contact and a cognitively intact resident with a history of inappropriate sexual behavior. The cognitively intact resident entered the room of the cognitively impaired resident and was found engaging in non-consensual sexual contact. The cognitively impaired resident had multiple diagnoses, including cerebral palsy and aphasia, and was dependent on staff for all activities of daily living. The resident's care plan included interventions for communication impairment, such as asking direct yes or no questions and monitoring for indicators of discomfort or distress. Despite these measures, the resident was unable to protect herself from the inappropriate actions of the other resident. The cognitively intact resident had a documented history of inappropriate sexual behavior, including previous incidents where he attempted to engage in sexual activities with other residents. His care plan included monitoring behavior episodes and notifying medical staff of any incidents. However, the facility failed to prevent the resident from accessing the room of the cognitively impaired resident, leading to the incident of sexual abuse.
Inaccurate MDS Coding for Resident Behavior
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure an accurate assessment of a resident's behavior, leading to a deficiency in the coding of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) for behaviors. Specifically, the facility did not accurately document an incident involving a resident with a history of cognitive communication deficit, paranoid schizophrenia, and other disorders, who exhibited inappropriate sexual behavior towards another resident. This behavior was not captured in the resident's Discharge MDS, despite being documented in the nurses' notes and incident report. The incident occurred when the resident attempted to inappropriately touch another resident, requiring staff intervention and resulting in the resident being placed under one-on-one supervision. The facility's staff, including the MDS LPN, DON, and Administrator, acknowledged that the behavior was not accurately coded in the MDS, which should have reflected the inappropriate behavior exhibited during the lookback period. This oversight highlights a failure in the facility's assessment process, as the behavior was documented in other records but not in the MDS.
Failure to Provide Adequate Assistance During Transfer
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure adequate assistance was provided to prevent accidents for a resident, resulting in actual harm. On the evening of April 28, 2024, a CNA attempted to transfer a resident from a wheelchair to a bed without the required two-person assistance, as specified in the resident's care plan. During the transfer, both the CNA and the resident slipped, causing the resident to fall and sustain an injury. The resident, who had a history of hemiplegia following a cerebral infarction and required extensive assistance with transfers, was diagnosed with an impacted humeral head fracture with osteopenia following the incident. The resident's care plan clearly indicated the need for two-person assistance during transfers due to physical mobility impairments and a risk of falls. Despite this, the CNA proceeded with the transfer alone, contrary to the facility's policy on safe resident handling and transfers. The incident was documented in an incident report and confirmed through interviews with the resident, the CNA, and the Director of Nursing. The resident experienced pain and swelling in the left elbow following the fall, and subsequent X-rays confirmed the fracture.
Failure to Provide Necessary Nail Care for Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide necessary nail care for three residents who were unable to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) independently. Resident #32, who required substantial assistance for personal hygiene and was dependent on staff for bathing, was observed with fingernails approximately 1/8th of an inch past his fingertips and a dark substance under the nail bed. Despite expressing a desire for his nails to be cleaned and cut, observations on consecutive days showed no change in his nail condition. The Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged that Resident #32 required staff assistance for nail care, which should have been provided during his shower. Similarly, Resident #52, who was dependent on staff for bathing, was observed with fingernails about 1/4 inch past his fingertips. He also expressed a desire for his nails to be cut, but observations indicated that his nails remained untrimmed. The DON confirmed that Resident #52 required staff assistance for nail care. Resident #17, with moderate cognitive impairment and requiring substantial assistance with personal hygiene, was observed with fingernails 1/2 inch long and a brown substance under them. Despite the resident's request for nail care, the nails remained untrimmed, and an LPN confirmed the deficiency.
Failure to Properly Manage Respiratory Equipment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide respiratory care consistent with professional standards for a resident diagnosed with acute and chronic respiratory failure, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The resident's care plan included interventions such as administering oxygen therapy as ordered and changing tubing per protocol. However, observations revealed that the oxygen tubing connected to the resident's oxygen concentrator was dated 07/07/2024, indicating it had not been changed as required. Additionally, the oxygen tubing connected to the oxygen tank on the resident's wheelchair was neither covered nor dated, contrary to the facility's protocol. Interviews with facility staff, including an LPN and the ADON, confirmed that the night nurse on the weekend was responsible for storing, changing, and labeling oxygen tubing weekly. The ADON acknowledged that the oxygen equipment should have been stored in a bag and labeled, and confirmed that the tubing should have been changed and dated every weekend. The DON also confirmed that all oxygen equipment should have been changed and dated weekly by the night nurse, which was not done in this case.
Failure in Pain Management for Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide adequate pain management for a resident who required such services, as per professional standards and the resident's comprehensive care plan. The resident, who had a history of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, pain, secondary osteoarthritis, and a complete rotator cuff tear/rupture of the left shoulder, was prescribed Belbuca and Tramadol for pain management. Despite the prescription for Belbuca being sent to the pharmacy, the medication was not received by the facility, and the resident continued to experience pain levels ranging from 5 to 8 on the pain scale, even after taking Tramadol. Interviews revealed that the LPN was unaware of why the Belbuca medication had not arrived, and the resident believed the prescription had been canceled due to a lack of communication. The DON confirmed that the pharmacy had sent an authorization form to the wrong fax number, resulting in the facility not receiving it. Consequently, the medication was missed, and no follow-up was conducted to ensure the resident received the necessary pain management.
