Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Pisgah Manor Health Care Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
During a COVID-19 outbreak, the facility did not implement broad-based testing for staff and residents when contact tracing failed to stop transmission, resulting in delayed identification of positive cases across multiple units. Staff testing was inconsistent, with many only tested if symptomatic, and there was no comprehensive tracking of test results. The facility also failed to implement source control measures such as universal masking and did not restrict staff from returning to work after testing positive, contrary to CDC guidance. Communication with the local Health Department was delayed, and the facility's policies were not updated to reflect current CDC recommendations.
Surveyors found that leftover breaded fish filets in the walk-in freezer were stored in an open, undated bag, with a thin white layer observed on the edges. Staff interviews confirmed that opened foods should be dated and sealed, but this was not done for the fish filets.
Failure to Implement COVID-19 Infection Control Measures During Outbreak
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to operationalize its infection prevention and control program in accordance with current CDC guidance during a COVID outbreak. Despite having a policy that outlined procedures for testing and outbreak response, the facility did not implement broad-based COVID testing for staff and residents when contact tracing failed to halt transmission. Instead, testing was limited to symptomatic individuals or those who requested it, and there was no comprehensive system for tracking or logging staff test results. This resulted in delayed identification of positive cases, with broad-based testing not initiated until several staff and residents had already tested positive across multiple halls. Staff interviews revealed inconsistent testing practices, with many staff members reporting they were only tested if symptomatic or after known exposure outside the facility. Several staff who worked on affected units were not tested or did not have repeat testing, and therapy staff were largely absent from testing logs. The facility also failed to implement source control measures, such as universal masking, during the outbreak, and did not restrict staff from returning to work after testing positive for COVID in accordance with CDC guidance. Additionally, the facility's COVID policies and procedures were not updated to align with current CDC recommendations for source control and work restrictions for healthcare personnel. Communication with the local Health Department was inadequate, as the facility did not promptly notify the department of the outbreak or seek guidance. The Health Department Nurse confirmed that she had not received timely notification and would have recommended immediate broad-based testing and source control measures had she been informed. The lack of a coordinated response, incomplete testing, and failure to follow established protocols contributed to ongoing transmission of COVID among residents and staff, with multiple residents requiring hospitalization due to COVID-related symptoms.
Failure to Date and Seal Leftover Frozen Food in Kitchen
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility failed to date and seal leftover frozen food stored in the walk-in freezer. Specifically, a clear plastic bag containing breaded fish filets was found open to air, not sealed, and without a date. The edges of the fish filets had a thin white layer around them. Both the Dietary Director and the Registered Dietitian confirmed during interviews that all opened foods should be dated and sealed. The Administrator also stated that opened food should be dated when returned to the refrigerator or freezer, but was unsure if sealing was required. The deficiency was identified during an initial kitchen observation and confirmed through staff interviews.
