Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Lincoln Park Renaissance during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to conduct regular pain assessments for a resident on palliative care, did not follow a physician's order for blood pressure monitoring before administering Losartan to another resident, and inaccurately documented the administration of Methadone for a cognitively impaired resident. These deficiencies highlight lapses in adherence to professional standards of practice and medication management.
The facility failed to assess and document vital signs and dialysis access site conditions for two residents returning from dialysis. One resident reported not being assessed promptly, and records lacked necessary documentation. Another resident's communication logs with the dialysis center were incomplete, missing vital information. The DON acknowledged these inconsistencies, which violated the facility's policy on dialysis care.
The facility failed to meet New Jersey's mandated staffing ratios, with deficiencies noted in CNA staffing on multiple day shifts. A resident was found with inadequate incontinence care due to the CNA's high workload, as observed by a surveyor. The DON acknowledged the staffing shortfall, which impacted resident care quality.
The facility failed to keep call bells within reach for two residents, both with severe cognitive impairments and requiring staff assistance. One resident's call bell was entangled with cords, and the other was similarly inaccessible. The CNA acknowledged the requirement but did not ensure compliance.
The facility failed to complete and transmit MDS assessments timely for two residents. One resident's Death in the Facility tracking discharge was 102 days overdue, and another resident's Discharge/Return Not Anticipated assessment was not completed within the required 14 days. The facility's policies did not adequately address these requirements.
The facility failed to accurately assess several residents' conditions in the MDS, leading to deficiencies. A resident's oral health issues, another's use of a hand splint, and a third's indwelling urinary catheter were not documented. Additionally, a resident with impaired cognition and a pressure ulcer was inaccurately assessed. These omissions indicate a lack of accurate documentation, crucial for ensuring appropriate care.
The facility failed to provide timely incontinence care to three residents, resulting in saturated briefs and strong odors. A resident was found with a saturated brief and pad, and the CNA admitted to providing care less frequently due to workload. Another resident was observed with a saturated brief and pad, and the CNA acknowledged the lack of recent care. A third resident was found in a similar condition, with the unit manager confirming the unacceptable state. Staffing issues contributed to the deficiency.
A facility failed to apply an orthopedic device as ordered for a resident with a right-hand contracture. The splint was observed on the over bed table instead of being applied during AM care, despite documentation indicating otherwise. Interviews confirmed that the documentation should have accurately reflected the splint's application.
Two residents in a facility were not administered oxygen therapy according to physician orders. One resident, with severe cognitive impairment, was observed with oxygen set at 1 LPM instead of the prescribed 2 LPM. Another resident, on palliative care, had their oxygen concentrator set at 1.5 LPM instead of 2 LPM. Staff confirmed the discrepancies and acknowledged the orders should have been followed.
A resident with chronic kidney disease and other conditions experienced a delay in treatment due to the facility's failure to promptly communicate an abnormal urine lab result to the physician. The lab report indicated a significant infection, but the resident was not evaluated and treated until four days later. The facility's policy required prompt notification of test results, which was not followed, leading to a delay in care.
Deficiencies in Pain Management and Medication Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to professional standards of practice in pain management for Resident #14. The resident, who was on palliative care due to a poor prognosis, had a history of chronic pain related to a non-healing right hip surgical wound, impaired mobility, and diabetic neuropathy. Despite the care plan indicating the need for regular pain assessments, the facility did not conduct these assessments every shift as required. The Unit Manager acknowledged the inconsistency in pain level documentation, which did not reflect assessments done every shift, as confirmed by the Director of Nursing. In another instance, the facility did not follow a physician's order for Resident #131 regarding the administration of Losartan, a medication for hypertension. The Registered Nurse (RN) failed to take the resident's systolic blood pressure immediately prior to administering the medication, as required by the physician's order. The RN admitted to taking the blood pressure earlier but not immediately before the medication administration, which is a deviation from the prescribed protocol. Additionally, there was a discrepancy in the administration of Methadone for Resident #367. The RN signed the Individual Patient's Controlled Drug Record (IPCDR) indicating the medication was administered, but it was not given to the resident. The resident, who was cognitively impaired, reported having pain every day and believed she had taken her Methadone that morning. The RN later acknowledged the error and administered the medication after the surveyor's intervention. The facility's records, including the electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR), did not accurately reflect the administration of the medication, highlighting a failure in medication management and documentation.
Inadequate Post-Dialysis Care and Documentation
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide appropriate post-dialysis care for two residents, as observed by surveyors. Resident #90, who is cognitively intact and has renal disease, reported not being assessed promptly upon returning from dialysis appointments. The facility's electronic medical records lacked documentation of vital signs and assessments of the resident's dialysis access site, as confirmed by the Unit Manager and Director of Nursing. Resident #134, also cognitively intact and diagnosed with end-stage renal disease and congestive heart failure, was observed to have incomplete post-dialysis assessments. The facility's communication logs with the dialysis center were often left blank, missing critical information such as pre- and post-dialysis weights and treatment complications. The facility staff documented the AV fistula assessment but failed to record vital signs consistently after the resident's return from dialysis. The Director of Nursing acknowledged the inconsistencies in documentation and assessment practices. The facility's policy on end-stage renal disease care requires thorough documentation of dialysis-related care and communication between the facility and the dialysis center, which was not adhered to in these cases.
Deficient Staffing Ratios and Resident Care in LTC Facility
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain the required minimum direct care staff-to-resident ratios as mandated by the state of New Jersey. Specifically, the facility was deficient in Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) staffing for residents on 13 of 14 day shifts during the two weeks prior to the standard survey conducted on October 10, 2024. The staffing levels were consistently below the required ratios, with instances such as having only 18 CNAs for 170 residents when at least 21 were required. Similar deficiencies were noted during the week of complaint investigations from May 5, 2024, to May 11, 2024, where the facility was deficient in CNA staffing on 5 of 7 day shifts. The deficiency in staffing ratios was further evidenced by the care provided to a resident observed on October 1, 2024. The resident was found in bed on a specialty mattress with a strong unpleasant odor in the room. The CNA assigned to the resident's care had 10 residents on her assignment and stated that she could only provide incontinence care twice during her shift due to time constraints. Upon inspection, the resident's incontinence brief and absorbency pad were saturated with urine, indicating inadequate care due to insufficient staffing. The Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged that despite the number of residents assigned to CNAs, incontinence care should be provided every two hours on the day shift. The report highlights the facility's failure to meet the mandated staffing requirements, which directly impacted the quality of care provided to the residents, as evidenced by the observations and interviews conducted by the surveyor.
Failure to Maintain Call Bells Within Reach for Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain the call bell within reach of residents, as observed by surveyors for two residents. Resident #59 was found in bed with a call bell that was intertwined with their roommate's call bell cord and entangled in bed electrical cords, making it unreachable. This resident had a history of hemiplegia, hemiparesis, dysphagia, and severe cognitive impairment, requiring staff assistance for personal hygiene and being non-verbal. The resident's care plan specifically included the intervention to keep the call light within reach, which was not adhered to. Similarly, Resident #127 was observed with a call bell that was also intertwined with their roommate's call bell and twisted in bed electrical cords, rendering it inaccessible. This resident had diagnoses of dementia, insomnia, and dysphagia, with a severe cognitive impairment indicated by a BIMS score of 3 out of 15. The resident required supervision and contact guard from staff for transfers and toileting, and their care plan included encouraging the use of the call bell for assistance. The CNA responsible for these residents acknowledged the requirement to keep call bells within reach but could not explain why this was not done.
Failure to Complete and Transmit MDS Assessments Timely
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to federal guidelines for the timely completion and transmission of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments for two residents. Resident #144, who was admitted with diagnoses including heart failure, passed away in the facility. However, the required Death in the Facility tracking discharge was not completed and was found to be 102 days overdue. The MDS-Director confirmed that the facility had 14 days to submit this tracking, but it was not started within the required timeframe. The facility's policy on Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) indicated that assessments should be conducted within 14 days of admission, upon significant changes, quarterly, and annually, but this was not followed in this case. Similarly, Resident #54 was discharged to home and was not expected to return. The MDS Discharge/Return Not Anticipated assessment for this resident was not completed within the required 14 days post-discharge. The RN Assessment Coordinator acknowledged that the assessment was late. The facility's policies did not specifically address discharge assessments, although the RN Assessment Coordinator stated that the facility follows the RAI 3.0 guidelines. These oversights were discussed with the survey team, the Licensed Nursing Home Administrator, the Regional Nurse, and the DON.
Inaccurate MDS Assessments Lead to Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to accurately assess several residents' conditions in the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment tool, leading to deficiencies in care. Resident #88 was observed with multiple broken and missing teeth, which were noted in a Speech Therapy evaluation but not recorded in the Admission MDS assessment. Resident #77 had a physician's order for a hand splint, but the use of the splint was not documented in the Annual MDS assessment. Resident #129 was admitted with an indwelling urinary catheter, but this was not identified in the Admission MDS assessment. These omissions indicate a lack of accurate documentation in the MDS, which is crucial for ensuring appropriate care. Additionally, Resident #25, who had a severely impaired cognition and an unstageable pressure ulcer, was inaccurately assessed in the MDS. The Admission MDS incorrectly documented the presence of a deep tissue injury upon admission, which was not the case. The RN/MDS Director confirmed the inaccuracies upon review with the surveyor. The facility's policy requires all personnel completing any portion of the MDS to certify its accuracy, yet these errors were present, highlighting a significant lapse in the assessment process.
Failure to Provide Timely Incontinence Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide timely incontinence care to three residents, leading to saturated incontinence briefs and unpleasant odors in their rooms. Resident #59 was observed in bed with a strong odor, and upon examination, their incontinence brief and pad were found to be saturated with urine. The CNA assigned to Resident #59 admitted to providing incontinence care less frequently than required due to a heavy workload. Resident #59's care plan indicated a need for incontinence care every two hours, which was not adhered to. Similarly, Resident #82 was found with a saturated incontinence brief and pad, emitting a strong urine odor. The CNA acknowledged that the resident had not received recent incontinence care, as evidenced by the extent of saturation. Resident #82's care plan required extensive assistance for personal hygiene, which was not provided. The resident's cognitive impairments and dependency on staff for personal hygiene were documented in their records. Resident #29 was also observed with a saturated incontinence brief, gown, and bed pad, indicating a lack of timely care. The unit manager confirmed the unacceptable condition of the resident. The facility's policy required residents to be cleaned after each episode of incontinence, which was not followed. The deficiency was further compounded by staffing issues, as one CNA left their shift early, leaving only one CNA to care for residents during a critical time.
Failure to Apply Orthopedic Device as Ordered
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to consistently follow a physician's order for the application of an orthopedic device for a resident with a right-hand contracture. The surveyor observed that the blue hand splint, which was supposed to be placed on the resident during AM care and removed during PM care, was left on the over bed table instead of being applied to the resident. This observation was made twice on the same day, once at 11:19 AM and again at 1:03 PM, indicating that the splint was not applied as per the physician's order. The electronic medical record showed a physician's order dated 4/26/24 for the application of a right-hand roll with wrist support during AM care. However, the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for 10/1/24 inaccurately indicated that the splint was placed during AM care and removed during PM care, despite the surveyor's observations to the contrary. Interviews with the nursing Unit Manager and the Regional Registered Nurse confirmed that the documentation should have reflected the actual application of the splint, which was not done in this case.
Failure to Administer Oxygen Therapy as Prescribed
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to administer oxygen therapy according to the physician's order for two residents, leading to a deficiency. Resident #29 was observed on multiple occasions with the oxygen tank set at 1 liter per minute (LPM) instead of the prescribed 2 LPM. The resident, who has severe cognitive impairment and a history of Alzheimer's disease, acute kidney failure, psychosis, and major depressive disorder, was non-responsive during these observations. The Unit Manager/Licensed Practical Nurse (UM/LPN) confirmed the discrepancy and acknowledged that the physician's order for 2 LPM should have been followed. Similarly, Resident #136 was observed with an oxygen concentrator set at 1.5 LPM instead of the prescribed 2 LPM. This resident, who is on palliative care and has a history of altered respiratory status, was also non-responsive during the surveyor's observations. The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) assigned to the resident confirmed the incorrect setting and acknowledged the need to adhere to the physician's order. The resident's medical record indicated a requirement for continuous oxygen therapy at 2 LPM, which was not being met. The facility's policy for oxygen administration, revised in May 2024, outlines guidelines for safe oxygen administration, which were not followed in these instances. Both residents had documented physician orders for oxygen therapy that were not adhered to, resulting in a failure to provide the prescribed level of care. The surveyor's observations and interviews with facility staff highlighted these deficiencies in the administration of oxygen therapy.
Delayed Communication and Treatment of Abnormal Urine Lab Result
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely communication and treatment of an abnormal urine lab result for a resident with chronic kidney disease, heart failure, and hyperparathyroidism. The resident, who had severely impaired cognition and occasional incontinence, was not monitored for signs and symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI) as part of their care plan. A urinalysis and culture were ordered, and the preliminary report indicated a significant infection, but there was a delay in notifying the physician and initiating treatment. The abnormal urine lab report, which showed a high colony count of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, was available on December 2, 2023, but the resident was not evaluated and treated until December 6, 2023. The Licensed Practical Nurse/Infection Preventionist stated that abnormal labs should be reported to the physician and documented in the electronic medical record, but there was no evidence that this was done. The Licensed Practical Nurse/Unit Manager was unable to provide documentation of communication with the physician regarding the lab results. The Nurse Practitioner involved stated that it was not acceptable for the resident to go untreated for four days after the lab results were available, but noted that the timing of the infectious disease prescriber's evaluation was beyond their control. The facility's policy required prompt notification of test results to attending physicians, but this was not adhered to in this case, leading to a delay in the resident receiving appropriate care.
