Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Mission Point Nursing & Physical Rehab Center Of L during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to maintain cleanliness and repair of equipment, plumbing, and the physical environment, affecting all residents. Issues included a leaking sewer pipe in the dry storage room, debris accumulation in the ice machine room, a dimly lit spa room, and non-operational laundry equipment. The Environmental Services Manager was unaware of some issues and the facility faced compliance problems with the wastewater treatment plant.
A resident with a urinary catheter had their collection bag improperly positioned above bladder level, contrary to care plan instructions. Staff placed the bag on the back of the wheelchair due to leakage and preference issues, leading to urine backup. The DON and the resident's urologist confirmed the risk of infection from this practice.
The facility failed to date and discard an outdated PPD solution and two insulin pens, which were kept in active storage past their expiration dates. An LPN was unable to determine when the PPD vial was opened, and an RN confirmed that the insulin pens had no current orders and should have been discarded. The Director of Nursing acknowledged these oversights, which were against the facility's medication storage policy.
A facility failed to ensure proper use of PPE for a resident requiring Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) due to pressure ulcers. Despite needing multiple daily dressing changes, there was no EBP order, and a nurse performed dressing changes without a gown. The DON confirmed EBP should have been in place since admission. Facility policy mandates gown and glove use during high-contact activities like wound care for residents with chronic wounds.
A facility failed to implement effective communication interventions for a resident with aphasia and cognitive communication deficit. The resident's husband reported staff's inability to communicate effectively, and observations revealed no communication tools in place. The care plan included interventions for communication, but they were not effectively implemented, leading to miscommunication of care needs.
A resident with a history of hemiplegia and cognitive deficits experienced pain and abnormal behavior, indicating a possible UTI. Despite her husband's concerns and requests for a urinalysis, the facility's nursing staff failed to document and communicate findings effectively, leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment. The resident's condition worsened, and she was eventually transferred to the emergency department.
Facility Maintenance and Cleanliness Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain cleanliness and general repair of equipment, plumbing, and other aspects of the physical environment, which has the potential to affect all residents. During a tour of the dry storage room, a sewer gas odor was detected, and a leaking sewer pipe was found with makeshift repairs using duct and electrical tape. In the ice machine room, a black rubber insulated seal was dangling, and there was an accumulation of black debris and brown crusted debris on the ice machine. The ice machine was draining into a rust-stained sink used for hydration passes. In the east hall spa room, a non-functional light ballast left the shower area dim. In the central supply room, a leaking sewer line was damaging stored files and records, which were observed with mold-like accumulation. The Environmental Services Manager (ESM) G, who had been at the facility for less than a month, was unaware of some of the issues, such as the leaking sewer line in the central supply room. The laundry room had non-operational washers and dryers, which had been down since the last annual survey. ESM G mentioned that the facility was having compliance issues with the Michigan Department of Environment Great Lakes and Energy regarding the onsite wastewater treatment plant. The facility's vendor wastewater operator had not been fulfilling obligations, leading to discharge concerns and numerous violations.
Improper Positioning of Urinary Catheter Bag
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to properly position a urinary catheter collection bag for a resident, identified as Resident #20, who was admitted with diagnoses including flaccid neuropathic bladder and urine retention. The resident was cognitively intact, as indicated by a perfect score on the Brief Interview for Mental Status. The care plan for the resident, initiated in April 2024, instructed staff to position the urinary catheter bag below the bladder level. However, observations on two consecutive days revealed that the catheter bag was hung from the back of the resident's wheelchair, above the bladder level, causing urine to back up in the drainage tube. Interviews with staff, including CNAs and an RN, revealed that the catheter bag was placed on the back of the wheelchair due to the resident's preference and issues with the bag leaking or being pulled when placed under the wheelchair. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the improper positioning could lead to urine reflux and potential infection. The resident's urologist also noted the incorrect positioning during a recent appointment and educated the resident on the importance of keeping the bag below the bladder level to prevent urinary tract infections.
Failure to Discard Expired Medications
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to properly date and discard an outdated biological medication and two insulin pens, which were kept in active storage past their expiration dates. During an inspection of the medication room, a multidose vial of purified protein derivative (PPD) solution was found without a date indicating when it was placed in service. The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) present during the inspection was unable to determine the date the vial was opened and assumed the expiration date was the manufacturer's date on the vial. Additionally, two insulin pens were found in the North unit medication cart, both of which were past the manufacturer's recommended expiration date and had no current doctor's orders for use. The Registered Nurse (RN) responsible for the cart confirmed that the insulin pens should have been discarded. The facility's policy on medication storage requires that medications and biologicals be stored according to the manufacturer's recommendations, and that expired, contaminated, or deteriorated medications be immediately removed from inventory. The policy also specifies that multidose vials should be dated when opened and discarded after 30 days unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer. The Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged that the PPD solution and insulin pens should have been discarded according to these guidelines. The manufacturer's instructions for the insulin pens and PPD solution also indicated specific time frames for discarding after opening, which were not adhered to by the facility.
Failure to Implement Enhanced Barrier Precautions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the proper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for a resident under Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP). Resident #22, who was admitted with pressure ulcers, required multiple daily dressing changes. However, there was no order for EBP, and during an observation, a Registered Nurse performed dressing changes without wearing a gown. Additionally, there was no signage on the door indicating the need for PPE. The Director of Nursing confirmed that EBP should have been in place since the resident's admission due to the wounds requiring dressing changes. The facility's policy on EBP, reviewed in March 2024, mandates gown and glove use during high-contact activities such as wound care for residents with chronic wounds.
Failure to Implement Communication Interventions for Resident with Aphasia
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to effectively implement communication interventions for a resident with hemiplegia, hemiparesis, aphasia, and cognitive communication deficit. The resident's husband, who is also her Designated Power of Attorney, reported that the staff did not know how to communicate with her effectively, unlike him, who uses word cards and a computer program. During an interview, it was observed that the resident had no communication board or other modes of communication available in her room, and the Electronic Medical Records did not document any communication devices or baseline communication status. The Director of Nursing and the Nursing Home Administrator were unaware of any baseline communication or communication devices for the resident. The Speech Therapist reported difficulties in assessing the resident due to her unavailability and lack of baseline communication information. The therapist noted that nonverbal communication might be more effective for the resident, but he could not determine her communication pattern from the records. A Secure Conversation note indicated that the resident's husband requested an evaluation of her cognition, as she had been using a picture board to communicate. The resident's care plan included interventions to monitor and document communication skills, obtain speech therapy consults, and develop communication tools. However, these interventions were not effectively implemented, as evidenced by the lack of communication devices and baseline documentation. The care plan also mentioned the resident's potential for impaired cognitive function and included interventions to ask yes/no questions and report changes in cognitive function. Despite these plans, the facility did not adequately address the resident's communication needs, leading to miscommunication of her care needs.
Failure to Manage Resident's Care and Timely Diagnosis of UTI
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to effectively manage the care of a resident, resulting in unmet care needs. The resident, who had a history of hemiplegia, hemiparesis, aphasia, and cognitive communication deficit, was observed to be in pain and exhibiting abnormal behavior. Her husband, who is also her Designated Power of Attorney, reported that she was experiencing pain in her abdominal and vaginal area, which was unusual for her. Despite his concerns and requests for a urinalysis, the initial assessment by the nursing staff did not result in immediate action, and the resident's condition was not adequately documented or communicated to the physician. On the following day, the resident continued to experience pain, and a urinalysis was eventually conducted, revealing bacteria in her urine. However, due to a lack of knowledge and communication among the nursing staff, the urine sample was not sent to the lab in a timely manner. The resident's condition worsened, and she began refusing medications, which was not typical behavior for her. Observations noted that she was disengaged and had limited interaction with staff and visitors. Further assessments by different nursing staff revealed signs of a possible yeast infection and abrasions in the resident's genital area, but these findings were not consistently documented or reported. Eventually, the resident was transferred to the emergency department after a nurse practitioner was contacted. The facility's lack of clear procedures and communication regarding lab work contributed to the delay in diagnosing and treating the resident's urinary tract infection, as confirmed by a subsequent urinalysis.
