Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Summit Health & Rehab Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to document and reconcile a refrigerated antianxiety medication for four months, leading to a risk of misappropriation. An LPN and RN were unable to locate the medication in the narcotic book, and the RN admitted to counting it without proper documentation. The medication had expired, and the DON confirmed the lack of documentation. In-service training and facility policy required proper counting and documentation, which were not followed.
The facility failed to monitor refrigerator temperatures properly, leading to potential degradation of stored medications like flu and TB vaccines, and insulins. Despite policy requirements, the refrigerator was found at temperatures as low as 23 degrees Fahrenheit, confirmed by an LPN and RN. The IP and DON noted that staff did not report these abnormal readings, indicating a lack of understanding of the importance of temperature monitoring.
The facility failed to label food items in the walk-in refrigerator with use-by dates, risking food safety. Observations revealed multiple items, including turkey sandwiches and tuna salad, lacked proper labeling. The Dietary Manager acknowledged the risk of salmonella growth without timely use, and the Administrator confirmed the absence of a food storage policy.
A facility failed to maintain a resident's dignity and privacy during incontinence care. A CNA did not pull the privacy curtain or close the door completely while providing care to a resident with severe cognitive impairment. The facility lacked a specific policy for incontinence care, and staff interviews confirmed that proper procedures were not followed.
A facility failed to ensure staff wore PPE in a droplet precaution room for a resident with COVID-19. Despite signage and PPE availability, a CNA entered the room without proper protection, citing previous COVID-19 infections as a reason for non-compliance. The DON confirmed the requirement for PPE use to prevent disease spread.
Failure to Document and Reconcile Antianxiety Medication
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper documentation and reconciliation of a refrigerated antianxiety medication, which was not counted or appropriately reconciled each shift. An unopened, expired vial of the medication was not documented in the narcotic book for four months, leading to a risk of misappropriation. On observation, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and a Registered Nurse (RN) were unable to locate the medication in the narcotic book, and the RN admitted to counting the medication without proper documentation. The medication had expired in June 2024, and the RN confirmed it should have been returned to the pharmacy. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that proper reconciliation requires both the medication and the narcotic page to be in hand, and acknowledged the lack of documentation for four months. In-service training records indicated that both the LPN and RN had attended sessions on medication administration and narcotic counts, which outlined the procedures for counting and documenting controlled substances. The facility's policy required two licensed nurses to conduct a physical inventory of all controlled medications at shift changes, but this was not adhered to, resulting in the deficiency.
Improper Monitoring of Medication Refrigerator Temperatures
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper monitoring of refrigerator temperatures, which is crucial for the safe storage of medications such as influenza and TB vaccines, and insulins. The facility's policy requires medications to be stored according to supplier or manufacturer recommendations, with refrigerated medications kept within the CDC's specified temperature range. However, observations revealed that the medication room refrigerator was not maintained at the appropriate temperature, with readings as low as 23 degrees Fahrenheit, which is below the recommended range for storing these medications. This discrepancy was confirmed by both LPN #5 and RN #6, who noted the inappropriate temperature settings and the presence of 55 flu vaccines, TB vaccine vials, and insulin pens in the refrigerator. Interviews with the Infection Preventionist (IP) and the Director of Nursing (DON) further highlighted the issue, as they confirmed that the staff responsible for monitoring the refrigerator temperatures did not report the abnormal readings. The IP admitted that the staff seemed unaware of the importance of monitoring these temperatures, and no concerns had been reported to her despite the logs showing freezing temperatures. This lack of communication and understanding among the staff led to the potential degradation or deterioration of the vaccines and medications stored in the refrigerator.
Failure to Label Food with Use-By Dates
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that food items stored in the walk-in refrigerator were labeled with a use-by date, which is a critical component of food service safety standards. During observations on two consecutive days, the surveyor noted multiple food items, including turkey sandwiches, beef vegetable soup, cooked sausage, bacon, cornbread, ground beef, processed turkey slices, and tuna salad, lacked a use-by date. These items had preparation or pull dates but were missing the necessary labeling to indicate when they should be discarded to prevent potential foodborne illnesses. The Dietary Manager acknowledged the importance of labeling food with a use-by date to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria such as salmonella, which could pose a risk to residents if consumed. The Dietary Manager specifically mentioned that tuna salad and turkey slices should be used within three days of preparation or opening to avoid health risks. Additionally, the facility's Administrator admitted that there was no existing policy for food storage, which contributed to the oversight in labeling food items appropriately.
Failure to Ensure Privacy During Incontinence Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the dignity and privacy of a resident during incontinence care. The deficiency was identified when a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) did not pull the privacy curtain or completely close the door while providing peri care to a resident with severe cognitive impairment and multiple diagnoses, including Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, Depression, and Schizophrenia. This oversight was acknowledged by the CNA as a privacy and dignity concern. Further investigation revealed that the facility lacked a specific policy for incontinence care. Interviews with the Infection Preventionist/Treatment Registered Nurse and the Director of Nursing confirmed that the proper procedure for incontinence care should include knocking on the door, closing the door and blinds, and pulling the privacy curtain to ensure the resident's dignity and privacy. However, these steps were not followed during the observed incident.
Failure to Adhere to PPE Protocols in COVID-19 Precaution Room
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that staff adhered to proper infection prevention and control protocols by not wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in a droplet precaution room for a resident diagnosed with COVID-19. The resident, who had a medical history of dementia, type II diabetes, and heart disease, was placed under quarantine and droplet isolation precautions as per the care plan and order summary report. Despite the presence of PPE and droplet precaution signage outside the resident's room, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) was observed entering the room without wearing the required PPE, including a gown, gloves, mask, or eye shield. The CNA admitted to not being concerned about the lack of PPE because she had previously contracted COVID-19 multiple times, despite having received in-service training on infection control. The Director of Nursing confirmed that staff were expected to wear PPE when entering rooms of residents on COVID precautions and to dispose of PPE and wash hands upon exiting to prevent disease spread. The facility's infection control in-service training guide emphasized the importance of additional precautions for residents on droplet precautions, including the use of gowns, gloves, masks, and eye protection.
