Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at The Pavilion At Edgefield For Nursing And Rehabili during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Surveyors found that the facility failed to maintain sanitary conditions in all three linen closets used to store clean linens. In one closet, a large pile of socks was on the floor with dirty shoes on top, along with clothing, gowns, bedsheets, and trash stored on or near shelves with clean linens. In two other closets, an LPN observed bedsheets, trash bags, Styrofoam cups, and plastic bags on the floor and on shelves with clean linens, as well as visibly dirty shelves and sheets with black lint. The administrator confirmed that all residents use linens and towels from these closets, despite facility policy requiring separation of clean and soiled linens and reprocessing of any linen that falls to the floor.
A resident who was dependent on staff for transfers experienced two falls during a mechanical lift transfer when the lift pad strap broke and the lift's hydraulics failed, resulting in injuries. The resident, who had a history of falls and multiple medical conditions, was being assisted by two CNAs when the incidents occurred. The same lift was used for both attempts, with a different pad used after the first fall. The equipment was later removed from use following the incidents.
Two residents did not receive medications under proper infection control procedures when LPNs failed to perform hand hygiene at required times, including before and after medication administration and glove use, as confirmed by staff interviews and facility policy review.
Unsanitary Storage of Clean Linens in All Linen Closets
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors identified a deficiency in the facility’s infection prevention and control program related to unsanitary storage of clean linens in three of three linen closets. During an observation of the second-floor clean storage linen closet with a CNA, a very large pile of socks was found on the floor with a dirty pair of shoes placed on top of the socks. Multiple items of clothing, hospital gowns, and bedsheets were also on the ground, and various items of trash were sitting on shelving units alongside clean linens. The CNA confirmed these conditions at the time of the observation. Additional observations on the first floor with an LPN revealed similar issues in two separate linen closets. In the 100-hall clean linen closet, multiple bedsheets, trash bags, Styrofoam cups, and plastic bags were on the floor, and Styrofoam cups and plastic bags of trash were stored on shelves with clean linens. In the 400-hall linen closet, Styrofoam cups and plastic bags were on the floor, and the shelves holding clean linens had visible dirt and splatter stains. Multiple sheets stored there had black lint on them. The LPN verified these findings. The Administrator later confirmed that all residents use the linens and towels from these facility linen closets. Facility policy states that soiled and clean linen should be separated at all times, that clean linen will remain hygienically clean through measures to protect it from environmental contamination, and that any linen that falls onto the floor or is not visibly clean after processing should be reprocessed.
Failure to Maintain Mechanical Lift Equipment Results in Resident Falls
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when a facility failed to ensure that mechanical lift equipment was maintained in a safe and working condition, resulting in an avoidable fall for a resident. The resident, who had multiple diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder, metabolic encephalopathy, obesity, and a history of falls, was totally dependent on staff for transfers and required the use of a mechanical lift with two-person assistance. During a transfer from wheelchair to bed, the mechanical lift pad's strap broke, causing the resident to fall, hitting the bed and landing on the floor. Staff then attempted to use a different lift pad with the same mechanical lift, but the hydraulics failed, resulting in a second fall where the resident sustained injuries to the forehead, nose, left hand, and knee. The resident was assessed by nursing staff after each fall and was sent to the emergency room for evaluation. The resident reported pain and injuries, but no fractures were found. Witness statements from the CNAs involved confirmed that the lift pad was inspected prior to use and that the resident was balanced during the transfer attempts. Both CNAs and the nurse described the sequence of events, including the strap breaking and the hydraulic failure, which led to the resident falling from approximately waist height on both occasions. Observations and interviews confirmed that the same mechanical lift was used for both transfer attempts, with a different pad used for the second attempt. The mechanical lift and pad involved in the incidents were later removed from use. The facility's failure to ensure the mechanical lift and its accessories were in safe working condition directly led to the resident's falls and subsequent injuries.
Failure to Maintain Infection Control During Medication Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain proper infection control procedures during medication administration for two residents. For one resident with a history of cerebral infarction and chronic pain syndrome, an LPN did not perform hand hygiene before preparing medications, before donning gloves, after removing gloves, or before and after administering medications. The LPN handled the medication cart, computer, and administered medications without performing hand hygiene at any of the required steps. The LPN confirmed during interview that hand hygiene was not performed as required. For another resident with metabolic encephalopathy, an LPN washed hands before administering medications but failed to perform hand hygiene after completing medication administration. The LPN acknowledged forgetting to perform hand hygiene after the task. The Director of Nursing confirmed that facility policy requires hand hygiene before and after each resident interaction during medication administration, as well as before donning and after removing gloves. Facility policies reviewed emphasized the importance of hand hygiene as the primary means to prevent healthcare-associated infections and specified the required moments for hand hygiene.
