Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Pierz Villa Inc during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident experienced multiple syncopal episodes during transfers with an e-z stand lift, yet the facility failed to conduct necessary assessments or document vital signs after each episode. The resident's care plan lacked interventions to guide staff in safely managing these episodes. Interviews with staff confirmed the absence of required assessments and care plan guidance, and a policy on assessments was not provided.
The facility failed to submit accurate direct care staffing information to CMS for Quarter 1. The PBJ Report identified dates with insufficient licensed nurse coverage, but timecards showed nurses worked 24 hours. The issue arose from the scheduling system automatically deducting a half-hour break from 12-hour shifts, leading to inaccurate data submission.
The facility failed to ensure that four residents were appropriately vaccinated against pneumococcal disease upon admission and did not offer updated vaccinations per CDC recommendations. The documentation for these residents did not show any evidence of being offered the updated PCV-15 or PCV-20 vaccines, and RN-A relied on external pharmacies for vaccine eligibility without initiating the necessary steps.
Failure to Assess and Re-assess Resident After Syncopal Episodes
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to comprehensively assess or re-assess a resident, identified as R40, who experienced multiple syncopal episodes during transfers with an e-z stand lift. R40, who was cognitively intact and dependent on staff for various activities, had a history of pulmonary embolism, generalized weakness, and restless leg syndrome. Despite experiencing syncopal episodes on several occasions, the medical record lacked evidence of assessments, vital signs being taken, or re-assessment for transfer status after each episode. Additionally, the care plan did not include interventions to guide staff in safely transferring the resident in the event of a syncopal episode. Interviews with the registered nurse (RN-A) and the director of nursing (DON) revealed that the facility's protocol required immediate evaluation, vital signs assessment, and re-assessment for transfer safety following a syncopal episode. Both RN-A and DON confirmed that R40's medical record did not contain the necessary assessments or vital signs documentation after the episodes. Furthermore, the care plan did not provide specific guidance for staff regarding R40's history of syncopal episodes. A policy on assessments was requested but not provided, indicating a lack of adherence to established procedures for ensuring resident safety.
Inaccurate Staffing Data Submission
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to submit complete and accurate direct care staffing information to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for Quarter 1. The Payroll Based Journal (PBJ) Report 1705D identified specific dates where there was a failure to have licensed nurse coverage for 24 hours per day. However, a review of the nursing staff's timecards for those dates showed that licensed nursing staff had indeed worked 24 hours each day. The inaccuracy was due to the facility's scheduling system, which automatically deducted a half-hour break from the 12-hour shifts, making it appear that nurses only worked 11.5 hours. This discrepancy led to the submission of inaccurate data to CMS.
Failure to Offer Updated Pneumococcal Vaccinations
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that four residents were appropriately vaccinated against pneumococcal disease upon admission and did not offer updated vaccinations per CDC recommendations. Specifically, residents R20, R25, R29, and R34 had received previous pneumococcal vaccinations (PCV-13 and PPSV-23) but were not offered the updated PCV-15 or PCV-20 vaccines as recommended by the CDC guidelines. The documentation for these residents did not show any evidence of being offered the updated vaccines, which is a requirement for ensuring they are protected against pneumococcal disease. During an interview, RN-A stated that she relied on external pharmacies to determine vaccine eligibility and had not initiated the necessary steps to educate, obtain consent or declination, or administer the updated pneumococcal vaccines for the affected residents. The facility's policy, dated April 2023, indicated that pneumonia vaccinations should be offered to all residents per CDC recommendations, but this was not followed in the cases of R20, R25, R29, and R34.
