Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Mckinley Nursing during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility did not ensure accurate documentation of medication administration and bathing records for two residents. One resident's IV antibiotic doses were not consistently signed off in the medication administration record, and nursing notes did not address these omissions. Another resident's bathing records were incomplete over several months, with missing entries for multiple shifts. The DON confirmed these documentation gaps.
A resident with cognitive impairment, multiple mental health diagnoses, and a recent leg fracture was found unable to reach her call light, which was stuck between the bed and the wall. The resident, identified as a high fall risk with recent falls, demonstrated her inability to access the call light, and an LPN confirmed and rectified the situation by retrieving the call light from the floor.
The facility failed to update menus and ensure correct portion sizes, affecting all residents. Outdated menus were used, and meal portions were inconsistent due to a lack of proper documentation and oversight. Residents' concerns about meal inaccuracies and small portions were not addressed, as the Dietary Manager was absent and meetings were not rescheduled.
The facility failed to maintain a sanitary kitchen and proper infection control during meal service. Observations showed unsanitary conditions in the kitchen, including littered floors and dirty equipment. A Dietary Aide handled food with ungloved hands, touching various surfaces and placing food on residents' plates, which was confirmed by the Assistant Dietary Manager. These deficiencies were investigated under specific complaint numbers.
A facility failed to ensure a clean and homelike environment for a resident with multiple medical conditions, including diabetes and gastroenteritis. The resident's room was found in disarray, with a strong odor, scattered food, and trash, and the resident reported being too ill to clean. Despite staff acknowledging the room's condition, it remained uncleaned, and the Director of Nursing confirmed that sanitation issues should have been addressed promptly.
A facility failed to eradicate cockroaches from a resident's room due to sanitation issues. The resident, with multiple health conditions, displayed behavioral symptoms leading to unsanitary conditions, including scattered food and waste. Despite multiple pest control treatments, the presence of personal items and poor sanitation hindered effective pest eradication.
The facility failed to ensure cinnamon rolls were properly prepared, resulting in them being hard, unpalatable, and unappetizing. Multiple residents and staff confirmed the issue, and the Dietary Manager acknowledged the preparation error.
An LPN failed to properly dispose of a used insulin syringe, which was found on the floor near the nursing station. The DON retrieved the needle without gloves and placed it in the sharps container. This incident had the potential to affect 31 residents.
The facility failed to ensure a timely discharge/transfer and did not provide a resident or their representative with the required documentation upon discharge. The resident's power of attorney reported no discharge instructions or assistance with belongings, and delays in sending necessary MDS data postponed the resident's admission to the new facility by a week.
The facility failed to ensure a discharge summary was completed for a resident with multiple diagnoses, including schizoaffective disorder and heart failure, at the time of discharge. The DON confirmed the absence of the discharge summary, which was required by the facility's policy.
Failure to Accurately Document Medication Administration and Bathing Records
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure accurate and complete documentation of medication administration and bathing records for two residents. For one resident with multiple diagnoses including diabetes, morbid obesity, and a surgical wound infection, there were several instances where the administration of IV cefepime was not signed off in the medication administration record on specific dates and times. Nursing progress notes did not address these missing entries, and the DON confirmed the omissions, attributing them in part to the lack of an IV-certified nurse on the unit and reliance on supervisors to administer the IV medication, who may have failed to document administration. For another resident with dementia, depression, and a history of strokes, bathing records over several months were found to be incomplete, with multiple shifts lacking documentation on whether a shower or bath was offered or provided. The DON verified that the bathing records were incomplete. These findings were identified during a complaint investigation and represent failures in maintaining accurate and complete medical records in accordance with professional standards.
Call Light Inaccessibility for High Fall Risk Resident
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency was identified when a resident with multiple diagnoses, including dementia, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, morbid obesity, and a recent left lower leg fracture, was found unable to access the call light in her room. The resident, who had a moderate cognitive deficit and was assessed as a high fall risk with two recent falls, was observed sitting on her bed with the call light hanging from the wall and lying on the floor between the bed and the wall. The resident reported being unable to reach the call light and demonstrated her inability to do so during the observation. Further observation and interview with an LPN confirmed that the call light was indeed inaccessible, as it was stuck between the bed and the wall. The LPN had to physically crawl over the bed and stretch to retrieve the call light and make it accessible to the resident. This incident was documented as a failure to ensure that call lights were accessible to residents, as required, and was identified during an investigation under a specific complaint number.
Failure to Update Menus and Ensure Correct Portion Sizes
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that menus were prepared in advance, updated periodically, and followed, which affected the nutritional needs of all 154 residents. The facility was using outdated menus from spring and summer 2024 instead of the current fall/winter menu. This discrepancy was confirmed by the Assistant Dietary Manager, who also reported issues with ordering and delivery that led to frequent menu changes without proper documentation. Additionally, the facility did not maintain a substitution log or track meals served, leading to inconsistencies in meal portions. Observations and interviews revealed that residents were not receiving the correct portion sizes as specified in the menu. For instance, a dietary aide used a non-measurable serving spoon to serve spaghetti, resulting in smaller portions than the prescribed eight ounces. Residents expressed concerns about incorrect meals and small portion sizes during resident council meetings, but these issues were not addressed due to the absence of the Dietary Manager. The Administrator and Director of Nursing were unaware of these concerns, and the facility had not rescheduled a canceled food committee meeting, further delaying the resolution of dietary issues.
Sanitation and Infection Control Deficiencies in Kitchen and Meal Service
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a sanitary kitchen and food storage areas, as well as ensure proper infection control during meal service. Observations revealed that the kitchen floors were littered with torn sugar packets, old food pieces, crumbs, and sticky substances. Walls had dried liquids, and the chemical dishwasher was covered with dust, food crumbs, dirty washcloths, and a dried-up sponge. Additionally, soup bowls were placed under a light used to kill gnats. The Assistant Dietary Manager confirmed these sanitation issues, attributing them to recent staff changes and a lapse in the cleaning schedule, which was not being signed off or located. During meal service, a Dietary Aide was observed handling food with ungloved hands after adjusting her hair net, touching various surfaces, and wiping her hands on her clothing. She placed breadsticks and cheese on residents' plates with ungloved hands and picked up dropped spaghetti from the tray line, placing it back on a resident's plate. These actions were confirmed by the Assistant Dietary Manager, highlighting a failure in maintaining proper hygiene and infection control during food preparation and service. This deficiency was investigated under Complaint Numbers OH00161141 and OH00161383.
Failure to Maintain a Clean and Sanitary Environment for a Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a clean, sanitary, and homelike environment for Resident #72, who was affected by this deficiency. Resident #72 had a medical history that included diabetes mellitus type one, an acquired absence of the left leg below the knee, major depressive disorder, and noninfectious gastroenteritis. The resident required supervision and touch assistance for toileting hygiene and showering and used a motorized wheelchair. Observations revealed the resident's room was in disarray, with a strong sour smell of vomit and feces, a full urinal, a basin of vomit, scattered food, and trash, and a dead cockroach. The resident was found in a fetal position on his bed, reporting illness since the previous night and expressing a need for assistance in keeping his room clean. Interviews with facility staff, including an LPN, CNA, housekeeper, and housekeeping supervisor, revealed that the resident's room was often messy due to his frequent illness and that housekeeping was responsible for cleaning it. However, on the day of observation, the room remained uncleaned despite the resident's compliance with care. The LPN confirmed the room's condition but did not attempt to clean it. The housekeeping supervisor claimed the resident refused cleaning in the morning, but this was not reported to the LSW. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the expectation was for staff to address sanitation issues promptly if the resident was compliant, which was not done in this case.
Failure to Eradicate Cockroaches Due to Sanitation Issues
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to eradicate cockroaches from a resident's room, affecting one resident out of three reviewed for pest control. The resident, who was admitted with diagnoses including diabetes mellitus type one, major depressive disorder, and noninfectious gastroenteritis, displayed behavioral symptoms such as defecating on the floor and in the trash can instead of using the provided bedside commode. Observations revealed unsanitary conditions in the resident's room, including a strong sour smell, a full urinal, a basin of vomit, scattered food, and a dead cockroach on a glue trap. Interviews and pest control service reports indicated that the room was treated for cockroaches on multiple occasions, but the presence of personal items and clothing throughout the room hindered thorough pest control efforts. The pest control company noted sanitation issues in the room, which contributed to the ongoing presence of cockroaches. The facility's administrator confirmed that the resident's sanitation issues were a factor in the failure to completely eradicate the cockroaches.
Improper Preparation of Cinnamon Rolls
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that cinnamon rolls were properly prepared, resulting in them being unpalatable and unappetizing. Observations and interviews revealed that the cinnamon rolls served were approximately the size of a 50-cent piece, hard, and crunchy. Multiple residents, including Resident #6 and Resident #7, complained that the cinnamon rolls were too hard to eat. Resident #6 had eaten only 10% of his lunch tray, and Resident #7 described the cinnamon roll as very hard and gross. Staff members, including a State tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) and a Registered Nurse (RN), confirmed the residents' complaints about the cinnamon rolls' texture and appearance. The Dietary Manager (DM) acknowledged that the cinnamon rolls served on the specified date were not properly prepared. The DM explained that a dietary cook failed to place the tray of cinnamon rolls over a steam table to allow the dough to rise before baking, resulting in the small size and hard texture. The DM confirmed that the cinnamon rolls were not palatable or appetizing and should not have been served to the residents. The dietary cook responsible for the preparation error was subsequently educated on the proper preparation of cinnamon rolls.
Improper Disposal of Used Insulin Syringe
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain appropriate infection control precautions when an LPN did not properly dispose of a used insulin syringe with a needle. The incident was observed when a used insulin syringe, with the sheath pulled over the needle, was found lying on the floor approximately five feet from the nursing station. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the presence of the needle on the floor and retrieved it without donning gloves, subsequently placing it into the sharps disposal container. This incident had the potential to affect 31 residents residing on the specified hall, with a facility census of 150 residents at the time of the observation. An interview with the LPN revealed that the insulin syringe was used to administer insulin to a resident and was likely missed when attempting to dispose of it in the sharps container. The DON and the LPN confirmed that the resident did not have any communicable diseases. The facility's policy on insulin administration, dated April 2007, mandates the proper disposal of needles in designated containers, which was not followed in this instance. This deficiency was discovered during a complaint investigation.
Failure to Ensure Timely Discharge and Provide Required Documentation
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a timely discharge/transfer and did not provide the resident or their representative with the required documentation upon discharge. This affected a resident with diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder, anxiety, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, asthma, and the use of anticoagulant therapy. The resident was discharged to another nursing facility, but the Discharge Planning form was not signed by the resident or their representative. Additionally, the resident's power of attorney (POA) reported that no discharge instructions or paperwork were provided, and there was no assistance with transporting the resident's belongings. The receiving facility experienced delays in obtaining necessary documentation, including the MDS assessment, which postponed the resident's admission to the new facility by a week. The Social Services Designee (SSD) was informed by the Business Office Manager (BOM) that the MDS data was not required for the resident's insurance, leading to a delay in sending the information. Despite multiple requests from the receiving facility's Admissions Coordinator, the MDS data was not sent until several days later. The Director of Nursing (DON) and the facility's Administrator confirmed the oversight, acknowledging that the MDS assessment data is part of the resident's medical record. The facility's policy on discharging residents was not followed, as it includes guidelines for assisting with the resident's personal effects and providing necessary documentation, which were not adhered to in this case.
Failure to Complete Discharge Summary
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a discharge summary, which included a recapitulation of the resident's stay, was completed for one resident at the time of discharge. The resident, who had diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder, anxiety, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, asthma, and was on anticoagulant therapy, was discharged to another nursing facility. A review of the resident's medical record revealed no evidence of a completed discharge summary. The Director of Nursing confirmed the absence of the discharge summary. The facility's policy required a discharge summary and post-discharge plan to be developed for anticipated discharges, but this was not adhered to in this case.
