Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Medilodge Of Taylor during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with impaired cognition and significant care needs experienced a fall that was not promptly reported to the guardian, physician, or DON. The fall was discovered by a CNA, and although no immediate injury was noted, a leg issue was identified the next day. Notification to the guardian and other responsible parties did not occur until after the resident was transferred to the hospital, contrary to facility policy.
The facility did not promptly report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft, nor did it communicate the results of its investigation to the proper authorities as required.
A resident with multiple chronic conditions and cognitive intactness was left on the toilet for nearly two hours after activating the call light for assistance. Despite the presence of family, staff did not respond promptly due to being occupied with meal service, causing the resident significant distress and discomfort. Facility policy required timely response to call lights, but this was not adhered to, resulting in the resident feeling neglected and anxious.
A resident with a Stage 4 pressure ulcer required enhanced barrier precautions, including PPE, during wound care as per physician orders and facility policy. Despite signage and PPE availability, an LPN was observed performing wound care without the required PPE. Interviews with staff confirmed knowledge of the protocol, but the failure to follow it resulted in a deficiency in infection prevention and control.
The facility failed to date-label food items and ensure a proper air gap for the coffee machine drain. Opened bread and cheese were undated, and the sour cream lacked an expiration date. The coffee machine's drain line did not meet the required air gap standards. The NHA acknowledged the labeling and maintenance issues.
A resident experienced frustration due to the facility's failure to update them on their request to move to another facility. Despite the resident's intact cognition and being their own responsible party, the social worker did not follow up or provide updates after sending a referral to the desired facility. The delay was partly due to the admission person being on vacation, and the social worker acknowledged the oversight in communication.
Two residents in a facility were found with unmet hygiene needs, including matted and greasy hair, due to inadequate grooming and bathing care. Despite being dependent on staff for activities of daily living, their care plans were not followed, and refusals were not consistently documented. Staff interviews revealed inconsistencies in care provision and reporting, leading to emotional distress and loss of dignity for the residents.
A facility failed to provide continuous tracheostomy humidification for a resident, as observed on multiple occasions with an empty humidifier canister. The resident, who was severely cognitively impaired and dependent on all ADLs, had a tracheostomy due to a traumatic brain injury and other conditions. The facility's policy on tracheostomy care was not followed, as confirmed by the DON.
A resident with a left below-the-knee amputation did not receive daily wound care as ordered, despite LPNs documenting that the care was provided. The DON was informed after an investigator found the treatment had not been administered since the initial dressing change.
Failure to Timely Notify Guardian of Resident Fall
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to promptly notify the guardian of a resident's fall, as required by policy. A resident with a history of right femur fracture, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and legal blindness, who was dependent for transfers and had moderately impaired cognition, experienced a fall next to the bed. The fall was discovered by a CNA, who notified an LPN, and together they assisted the resident back to bed. No new injuries were observed at the time, and the CNA did not notice anything wrong until the following day, when a leg issue was identified and reported to another LPN. Despite the incident, the guardian was not informed of the fall or the resulting leg injury until the resident was transferred to the hospital two days later. The facility's policy requires immediate notification of the resident's practitioner and family or representative following such incidents, but documentation and interviews confirmed that the guardian, physician, and DON were not notified until well after the event. The late entry in the progress note and interviews with staff and the guardian's office corroborated the delay in communication.
Failure to Timely Report Suspected Abuse, Neglect, or Theft
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and did not report the results of the investigation to the proper authorities. This deficiency was identified based on the facility's lack of prompt action in notifying the appropriate agencies when an incident of suspected abuse, neglect, or theft occurred. The report indicates that the required notifications and investigation results were not communicated as mandated.
Failure to Timely Respond to Call Light Leaves Resident Unattended on Toilet
Penalty
Summary
A resident with multiple medical conditions, including Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Peripheral Vascular Disease, Atherosclerotic Heart Disease, Chronic Fatigue, Age-Related Macular Degeneration, and Adjustment Disorder, was left on the toilet for an extended period after activating the call light for assistance. The resident, who was cognitively intact and required partial to moderate assistance with toileting hygiene and supervision or touching assistance with toilet transfer, reported waiting almost two hours for staff to respond to the bathroom call light. During this time, the resident's family attempted to locate staff but was unable to find anyone to help, and the resident expressed significant distress, stating they were begging for help and felt unimportant. The facility's call light system was designed to alert CNAs and, after ten minutes, notify the nurse if unanswered. On the day of the incident, staff were occupied with passing and feeding lunch trays, which delayed their response to the call light. The facility's policy required all staff to respond to activated call lights and ensure resident access to the system, but this was not followed, resulting in the resident being left unattended and experiencing discomfort, disrespect, and anxiety.
Failure to Apply Enhanced Barrier Precautions During Wound Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) were consistently applied during wound care for a resident with a Stage 4 pressure ulcer in the sacral area. The resident had a physician's order and a care plan in place requiring the use of EBP, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) during high-contact care activities such as wound care. Observations revealed that a sign and PPE storage were present outside the resident's room, indicating the requirement for PPE use. However, an LPN was observed entering the resident's room and performing wound care without donning the required PPE, despite the presence of red-colored drainage from the wound. Interviews with the LPN, the Assistant Director of Nursing, and the Infection Control Preventionist confirmed that PPE was expected to be worn during wound care and that staff had been in-serviced on these protocols. Record review of the facility's policy also documented the requirement for enhanced barrier precautions to prevent the transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms. The failure to follow these established protocols and physician orders resulted in a deficiency related to infection prevention and control practices.
Improper Food Labeling and Air Gap Deficiency
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to properly date-label food items in the kitchen and ensure the coffee machine's drain was properly air gapped. During an initial tour of the kitchen, it was observed that several loaves of bread and a bag of hotdog buns were opened and undated on the bread rack. The Registered Dietitian (RD) stated that food items should specify delivery, opened, and discard dates. Additionally, inside the reach-in cooler, an opened five-pound bag of shredded cheese was dated, but the Dietary Manager (DM) and RD could not identify if the date signified delivery, opened, or discard. An opened five-pound tub of sour cream also lacked an expiration date. Furthermore, the drain line from the coffee machine did not have the required minimum one-inch air gap, which is an unobstructed vertical space between the end of the drain line and the flood rim of the floor drain. The Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) acknowledged that kitchen items should be labeled when received, opened, and use-by, and that kitchen staff should have notified maintenance to adjust the coffee machine drainpipe. The facility did not provide any additional documentation or information before the end of the survey.
Failure to Update Resident on Move Request
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely communication with a resident regarding their preference to move to another facility, resulting in the resident experiencing frustration. The resident, who was cognitively intact and their own responsible party, expressed a desire to move to another facility. The social worker was notified of this request and sent a referral to the admissions department of the desired facility. However, due to the admission person being on vacation, there was a delay in receiving a response, and the social worker did not follow up or update the resident on the status of their request. The social worker acknowledged the oversight in not following up with the facility or updating the resident about the status of their move request. The Assistant Director of Nursing also noted that the social worker should have contacted the facility to confirm receipt of the referral and informed the resident of the status. The lack of documentation and follow-up led to the resident not being updated on their request to move, causing frustration.
Failure to Provide Adequate Grooming and Hygiene Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide adequate nail care, facial hair grooming, and hair washing for two residents, resulting in unmet hygiene needs, loss of dignity, and emotional distress. Resident R18 was observed with matted, greasy hair full of dandruff and overgrown facial hair. Despite being dependent on staff for grooming and bathing due to moderate cognitive impairment, R18's care plan was not followed, and no refusals were documented. Interviews with staff revealed inconsistencies in care provision, with some staff indicating that R18 often refused care, while others noted cooperation with familiar staff. Resident R81 was also observed with disheveled, greasy hair and thick dandruff. Despite being dependent on staff for all activities of daily living, R81's care plan was not adequately implemented. The resident's medical records indicated a refusal to bathe on one occasion, but no other refusals or notifications were documented. Interviews with staff revealed a lack of familiarity with R81 and inconsistent reporting of care refusals. The facility's policy on activities of daily living emphasizes the importance of maintaining residents' grooming and personal hygiene. However, the observations and interviews indicate a failure to adhere to this policy, resulting in unmet hygiene needs for both residents. The Director of Nursing acknowledged the expectation for bathing and grooming on shower days, but the care was not consistently provided, leading to the identified deficiencies.
Failure to Ensure Continuous Tracheostomy Humidification
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide continuous tracheostomy humidification for a resident, resulting in a deficiency in respiratory care. Observations on multiple occasions revealed that the humidifier canister, which is essential for generating humidification, was completely empty. This was noted on two consecutive days, indicating a lack of proper maintenance and monitoring of the resident's respiratory equipment. The resident involved had a history of severe cognitive impairment and was dependent on all activities of daily living. The resident's medical history included a traumatic subdural hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, lung injury, and fractures, necessitating a tracheostomy. The facility's policy on tracheostomy care, which requires consistent care in line with professional standards and the resident's care plan, was not adhered to, as confirmed by the Director of Nursing during an interview.
Failure to Maintain Accurate Wound Care Records
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain complete and accurate medical records for a resident who required wound care following a left below-the-knee amputation. The resident, who had intact cognition and required assistance with activities of daily living, was admitted with a pertinent diagnosis of acquired absence of the left leg below the knee. Physician orders specified that the surgical incision should be cleansed and a dry dressing applied daily. However, the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) indicated that the dressing was only applied on the first day, and subsequent entries falsely documented that the dressing changes were administered on the following days. Interviews with the Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) involved revealed that they signed off on the TAR indicating that the wound care was completed, despite not administering the treatment. The Director of Nursing (DON) was made aware of the issue after a State Agency investigator observed that the treatment had not been administered since the initial dressing change. The DON acknowledged that documenting treatments as completed when they were not is against the standard of practice.
