Health deficiencies cited at Canton Christian Home during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with a history of vascular dementia and left hemiplegia fell and sustained tibial fractures due to the facility's failure to implement a comprehensive fall prevention program. The resident, who required a mechanical lift for transfers, was found on the floor after staff did not respond promptly to her calls for help. The care plan interventions were not effectively monitored, contributing to the incident.
The facility failed to ensure proper transfer procedures using a mechanical lift, resulting in a resident sustaining a spiral femur fracture. Additionally, another resident was transferred using an unsafe method, posing a risk of injury.
Failure to Implement Fall Prevention Program Leads to Resident Injury
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive and individualized fall prevention program for a resident, resulting in a fall with major injury. The resident, who required a mechanical lift for transfers and was at high risk for falls, was hospitalized after sustaining right and left tibial fractures following an unwitnessed fall. Prior to the fall, a nursing assistant observed the resident yelling for help with her legs hanging out of bed but did not respond immediately, which contributed to the incident. The resident had a complex medical history, including vascular dementia, left hemiplegia, and diabetes, and was assessed as having moderately impaired cognition. The care plan included interventions such as ensuring the call light was within reach and educating the resident on the unsafe behavior of adjusting her bed height. However, these interventions were not effectively implemented or monitored, as evidenced by the resident's ability to adjust the bed height, which was a factor in the fall. The facility's investigation revealed that staff did not promptly respond to the resident's calls for help, and the resident was found on the floor with the bed in a high position. The facility's policy on fall prevention was not adequately followed, as staff failed to assist the resident when she appeared unsteady and did not modify the care plan in collaboration with the interdisciplinary team. This lack of timely intervention and supervision led to the resident's fall and subsequent injuries.
Improper Use of Mechanical Lift Results in Resident Injury
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure residents were properly transferred by mechanical lift, resulting in actual harm to Resident #22. On 05/05/24, two State Tested Nursing Assistants (STNAs) were transferring Resident #22, who had severely impaired cognition and was dependent on staff for transfers, using a mechanical lift. The STNAs failed to operate the lift properly, causing it to tip over. Despite the STNAs' efforts to catch and lower the resident to the floor, Resident #22 sustained a spiral femur fracture, which required surgery and hospitalization. The resident exhibited severe pain and distress following the incident and was eventually transferred to the hospital for further evaluation and treatment. Resident #22 had a history of Alzheimer's Disease, anxiety disorder, and polyosteoarthritis, among other conditions. The care plan for Resident #22 specified the use of a hoyer lift with two staff members for transfers. However, during the incident, the STNAs did not follow proper procedures, leading to the lift tipping over. Conflicting statements from the STNAs and subsequent interviews revealed that one STNA was in too much of a hurry, and there was a lack of clarity on who was operating the lift. The facility's investigation confirmed that the hoyer lift was in proper working condition, and the legs of the lift could not open without pressing the button on the remote. Additionally, the facility failed to ensure proper transfer procedures for Resident #44. During an observation on 05/23/24, two STNAs were seen transferring Resident #44 using a hoyer lift. One STNA tilted the resident's wheelchair backward onto its back wheels to position the resident in the chair, a practice taught by an agency aide. This method posed a risk of the wheelchair slipping and falling, which the STNA had not considered. The facility's policies required staff to demonstrate competency in using mechanical lifts, but the observed practice indicated a lack of adherence to safe transfer procedures.
