Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Edisto Post Acute during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with a history of falls and a fracture did not receive timely fall risk assessments as required by facility policy. Despite being at moderate risk for falls, the resident missed two assessments in 2024. Interviews with staff revealed that the floor nurses responsible for these assessments did not complete them, and the Assistant Director of Nursing confirmed the lack of updated assessments.
The facility failed to maintain resident dignity during meal assistance, as a CNA was observed standing over two residents while feeding them, contrary to policy. The DON acknowledged the protocol requiring staff to sit while feeding and noted recent training may not have covered this adequately.
A resident with metabolic encephalopathy, dementia, and depression was not accurately assessed in the MDS, as it failed to reflect the use of prescribed antipsychotic and antidepressant medications. The MDS Coordinator admitted to missing the coding, necessitating a modification.
A facility failed to develop a comprehensive care plan for a resident prescribed antipsychotic medication. The resident, with diagnoses including Dementia and Depression, was receiving Quetiapine Fumarate and Escitalopram Oxalate. The MDS assessment did not reflect the use of these medications, resulting in the absence of a care plan. The MDS Coordinator admitted to missing the coding, which led to this deficiency.
The facility failed to adhere to hand hygiene protocols during meal service, as a CNA was observed feeding two residents without washing hands between tasks. Staff interviews highlighted understaffing issues, which may have contributed to the deficiency. The DON confirmed the hand hygiene policy but noted a possible gap in training regarding feeding multiple residents.
Failure to Complete Timely Fall Risk Assessments
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to complete fall risk assessments in a timely manner for a resident, leading to a deficiency in ensuring the area was free from accident hazards and providing adequate supervision to prevent accidents. The facility's policy requires three quarterly assessments within a 12-month period unless there is a significant change in status or discharge. However, the resident, who was admitted with a history of falls and a fracture, did not receive the required assessments. The resident's care plan indicated a risk for falls due to various factors, including medication regimen and previous falls, but the necessary assessments were not conducted. Interviews with facility staff revealed that the resident missed two assessments in 2024, and the floor nurses responsible for conducting these assessments did not complete them. The registered nurse confirmed the oversight and stated that orders for assessments should be entered three days prior to charting, which would then appear on the EMAR when due. Despite this process, the assessments were not completed, and the Assistant Director of Nursing confirmed the lack of updated assessments for the resident.
Failure to Maintain Resident Dignity During Meal Assistance
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to uphold the residents' rights to dignity and respect during meal assistance, as evidenced by staff behavior observed during meal times. Specifically, a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) was seen standing over two residents while assisting them with eating, which is contrary to the facility's policy that emphasizes feeding residents with attention to safety, comfort, and dignity. The policy explicitly states that staff should not stand over residents while assisting them with meals, yet this was not adhered to during the observed incidents. During interviews, the Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged the protocol requiring staff to sit while feeding residents and confirmed that staff are aware of this requirement. However, the DON admitted that recent training may not have thoroughly covered the importance of not feeding two residents simultaneously or the necessity of sitting while assisting residents with meals. This oversight in training and adherence to policy contributed to the deficiency in maintaining the residents' dignity during meal times.
Inaccurate MDS Assessment for Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure an accurate comprehensive assessment for one of the residents reviewed. The resident, who was admitted with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy, dementia, and depression, had physician's orders for Quetiapine Fumarate (Seroquel) and Escitalopram Oxalate (Lexapro). Despite receiving these medications from late May to mid-June, the Admission MDS assessment did not reflect the use of antipsychotic and antidepressant medications. During an interview, the MDS Coordinator acknowledged missing the coding for these medications, indicating a need for modification of the MDS.
Failure to Develop Care Plan for Antipsychotic Medication
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a comprehensive person-centered care plan for a resident, identified as R77, who was prescribed antipsychotic medication. The medical record review revealed that R77 was admitted with diagnoses including Metabolic Encephalopathy, Dementia, and Depression. Physician's orders included Quetiapine Fumarate (Seroquel) and Escitalopram Oxalate (Lexapro), which were administered from late May to mid-June 2024. However, the Admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for R77 did not reflect the use of these medications, and consequently, a care plan for the antipsychotic medication was not developed. During an interview, the MDS Coordinator acknowledged the oversight in coding the medications, which led to the absence of a necessary care plan for the use of Seroquel.
Inadequate Hand Hygiene During Meal Service
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper infection prevention and control practices during meal service, as observed with two residents. During a lunch meal observation, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) was seen feeding one resident and then setting up another resident's meal without washing hands in between. Additionally, the same CNA was observed feeding two residents simultaneously without performing hand hygiene between assisting each resident. This action was contrary to the facility's hand hygiene policy, which emphasizes handwashing as the primary means to prevent the spread of healthcare-associated infections. Interviews with facility staff revealed challenges related to understaffing, which may have contributed to the observed deficiencies. A Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) mentioned that the facility had a high number of residents requiring assistance with eating but insufficient CNAs to provide adequate support. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the hand hygiene policy, stating that staff should wash their hands before and after assisting each resident. However, the DON acknowledged that recent training might not have covered the specifics of not feeding two patients simultaneously, indicating a potential gap in staff education on infection control practices.
