Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Carecore At Minster during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to protect residents from various forms of abuse and neglect, including physical, mental, and sexual abuse, as well as physical punishment, by any individual.
The facility failed to ensure the Activities Director was qualified, potentially affecting 28 residents who regularly attend activities. The Activities Director was hired as a part-time assistant with no prior experience and later promoted without documentation of qualifications. She was taking a certification program but did not have a certificate at the time of the survey.
The facility failed to maintain accurate and accessible accounting of resident trust accounts, affecting three residents. Discrepancies in account balances were found, and quarterly statements were not provided. The issue arose after a change in facility ownership, leading to a lack of transparency and adherence to policies regarding the management of residents' personal funds.
The facility failed to prevent resident-to-resident abuse involving two residents. One resident with Alzheimer's was assaulted by another with severe cognitive impairment and a history of behavioral issues. Despite previous incidents, the aggressive resident's care plan lacked interventions for managing behaviors. The facility's policy required assessment and care planning for such behaviors, but this was not followed.
The facility failed to maintain the laundry room wall in good repair, with missing drywall and a black substance observed on the wall and around the window. Staff confirmed the condition had persisted for over a year, potentially affecting 55 residents who use the facility's laundry services.

Unqualified Activities Director Affects Resident Engagement
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that the Activities Director was qualified, which had the potential to affect 28 residents who regularly attend activities. The employee file review revealed that the Activities Director, identified as AD #340, was hired as a part-time activities assistant with no previous activities experience. There was no documentation regarding when AD #340 transitioned to a full-time role or was promoted to Activities Director. During an interview, AD #340 stated she believed she was promoted approximately a year ago and went full-time about three months after being hired. She also mentioned that she was taking a certification program through a sister facility but confirmed she did not possess a certificate for the Activities Director role. This deficiency was investigated under Complaint Number OH00162380.
Deficiency in Managing Resident Trust Accounts
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a complete, accurate, and accessible accounting of resident trust accounts and did not provide quarterly statements to residents. This deficiency affected three residents who had their personal funds managed by the facility. The facility's policy required that funds be managed in accordance with federal and state requirements, including providing quarterly statements and maintaining accurate records of all financial transactions. However, the facility did not adhere to these policies, resulting in discrepancies in the residents' account balances and a lack of transparency regarding their financial status. Resident #1, who was moderately cognitively impaired, had a discrepancy of $65.00 in his account balance. His daughter, who was responsible for his finances, confirmed that she had not received any quarterly statements or updates regarding his account. Similarly, Resident #2, who was cognitively intact, had a discrepancy of $100.00 in her account balance and reported not receiving any recent statements. Resident #3, who was also cognitively intact, had a discrepancy of $10.00 in her account balance, and her Power of Attorney was not reachable for comment. All three residents were unaware of their current account balances due to the facility's failure to provide the necessary financial information. The issue arose when a new company took over ownership of the facility, and the Business Office Manager reported being unable to access the system to log accounting or run quarterly statements. The facility's corporate staff eventually provided some account details, but the information was not timely or accurate. The Administrator confirmed that account statements were not provided when the accounts were closed and transferred to the new company. The facility's failure to manage the residents' personal funds in accordance with their policies and federal/state requirements led to the identified discrepancies and lack of transparency in the residents' financial records.
Failure to Prevent Resident-to-Resident Abuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to prevent resident-to-resident abuse, affecting two residents. Resident #52, diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, was involved in an incident where another resident, Resident #45, who had severe cognitive impairment and a history of behavioral issues, shoved a pudding cup into her face. This incident occurred while Resident #52 was walking towards the nurse's station. Resident #52's care plan indicated a need for a secured unit, but there was no indication of measures to prevent such incidents. Resident #45, with a diagnosis of unspecified dementia and severe cognitive impairment, had a history of behavioral disturbances, including a previous incident involving a butter knife. Despite these behaviors, Resident #45's care plan lacked any goals or interventions for managing these behaviors. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the care plan had not been updated to include interventions for behaviors or the use of psychotropic medications. The facility's policy on abuse and neglect required assessment and care planning for residents with behaviors that might lead to conflict, but this was not followed in Resident #45's case. The facility unsubstantiated the incident due to Resident #45's dementia diagnosis, which was not in line with their policy.
Laundry Room Wall in Disrepair with Black Substance
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the laundry room wall was in good repair, with observations revealing missing drywall and a black substance on the wall and around the window. Interviews with staff, including two laundry aides and the maintenance director, confirmed that the wall near the folding table in the laundry room had been in this condition for over a year. The black substance was noted below the window, around the window, and under the air conditioning unit above the window. The window ledge was also deteriorated and missing parts. The maintenance director mentioned that the air conditioning unit had been replaced twice due to water leaking down the wall, although no recent water or roof issues were reported in that area. This condition had the potential to affect 55 residents who have their laundry washed at the facility, with three residents identified as not using the facility's laundry services. The administrator confirmed the observations and denied any recent concerns with water or roof issues in the affected area. The deficiency was investigated under Complaint Number OH00151864, highlighting the facility's non-compliance in maintaining a safe and clean environment in the laundry room. The facility census was 58, with 55 residents potentially affected by the laundry room's condition.
