Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at St Catherine's C C Of Fostoria during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with multiple complex medical conditions was discharged without prescribed medications due to incomplete discharge documentation and failure by nursing staff to complete a full discharge assessment, as confirmed by the DON. Required sections of the discharge form were left blank and the form was not signed or dated, resulting in non-compliance with facility policy.
A resident with a Stage IV sacral pressure ulcer and multiple complex medical conditions was admitted and remained dependent for all ADLs. The facility failed to perform required wound assessments or measurements during the stay, and the wound worsened, ultimately requiring a wound vac. Staff interviews and record review confirmed that wound monitoring and documentation were not completed as per facility policy.
A resident on a pureed diet due to dysphagia choked after consuming whole food left by another resident when staff were not present, requiring emergency intervention and hospitalization. The same resident experienced a fall when a required Dycem pad was not in place, and another resident fell when their bed was not locked as care planned. Both incidents were linked to lapses in supervision and failure to implement fall precautions.
Failure to Provide Prescribed Medications at Discharge
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that prescribed medications were sent with a resident upon discharge. Record review showed that a resident with multiple complex diagnoses, including acute kidney failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, bacteremia, sacral pressure ulcer, congestive heart failure, and atrial fibrillation, was discharged after a respite stay. The resident was dependent for all activities of daily living and had an intact cognition. The discharge documentation included a handwritten list of medications, but the sections indicating which medications were sent with the resident and which prescriptions were called in for pick-up were left blank. Additionally, the discharge form was not signed or dated. Interview with the DON confirmed that nursing staff did not complete a full discharge assessment and did not ensure that medications were provided to the resident at discharge. Review of the facility's discharge policy indicated that a discharge summary should include a reconciliation of all medications and a post-discharge plan of care, but these requirements were not met in this case.
Failure to Monitor and Assess Pressure Ulcer on Admission
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when the facility failed to adequately monitor and assess a resident's Stage IV sacral pressure ulcer during her respite stay. The resident, who was admitted with multiple complex diagnoses including acute kidney failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, bacteremia, congestive heart failure, and atrial fibrillation, was dependent for all activities of daily living and had intact cognition. Despite the presence of a severe pressure ulcer on admission, the medical record lacked any wound evaluations or measurements throughout her stay. Staff interviews confirmed that the facility did not measure or assess the resident's pressure ulcer as required. The resident's home health nurse reported that the wound worsened during the facility stay and subsequently required a wound vac, noting that the wound had been close to healing prior to admission. Facility policy required weekly monitoring and documentation of wounds, including measurements and detailed descriptions, but this was not completed for the resident in question.
Failure to Prevent Choking and Falls Due to Inadequate Supervision and Implementation of Precautions
Penalty
Summary
A resident with a history of cerebral vascular accident, schizoaffective disorder, epilepsy, mild intellectual disabilities, and congestive heart failure was placed on a pureed diet due to dysphagia and difficulty chewing. Despite these precautions, the resident was left unsupervised in the dining room when staff left the table to clean, allowing another resident to place a regular-texture fruit cup in front of him. The resident consumed the whole food, choked, and required the Heimlich maneuver, which was initially unsuccessful. Emergency services were called, and the resident was transported to the hospital with ongoing respiratory distress and altered mental status. The same resident was also identified as being at risk for falls due to a seizure disorder, history of stroke with mild right foot drop, mild developmental disability, and previous falls. The care plan included the use of a Dycem pad in the recliner to prevent sliding. However, the resident experienced an unwitnessed fall when the Dycem pad was not in place as required, resulting in the resident sliding out of the recliner. No injuries were reported from this incident. Another resident, recently admitted with diagnoses including rhabdomyolysis, acute kidney failure, dementia, epilepsy, and femur fracture, was assessed as high risk for falls. The care plan required the bed to be in the lowest locked position. The resident was found on the floor after the bed, which was not locked, moved while the resident attempted to get out of bed. No injuries were noted, but the incident was attributed to the failure to lock the bed as required by the care plan.
