Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Broward Nursing & Rehabilitation Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Two residents experienced significant weight loss due to the facility's failure to provide timely nutritional interventions. One resident lost 15.1% of body weight over several months, with inconsistent intake and delayed supplement administration. Another resident, with multiple pressure ulcers and medical conditions, experienced weight loss from 170 to 158.2 pounds, with delayed documentation and intervention. Staff interviews revealed inconsistencies in monitoring and addressing weight loss, contributing to the deficiencies.
A resident with multiple health conditions, including end-stage Parkinson's disease, did not receive oxygen therapy as per the physician's order. The resident was supposed to receive oxygen at 2 liters per minute, but observations showed the concentrator set at 4.5 liters. Staff interviews revealed a lack of awareness of the correct oxygen flow rate, and a hospice nurse was called after the resident's oxygen levels dropped.
The facility failed to ensure timely RD oversight of assessments and recommendations made by a DTR for two residents. The DTR inaccurately listed her title as a Dietitian, allowing her access to additional resident information and leading to delayed RD review of her work. This resulted in significant delays in RD oversight and documentation review, contributing to the deficiency identified by surveyors.
Failure to Address Significant Weight Loss in Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to identify significant weight loss and provide timely nutritional interventions for two residents. Resident #12 experienced severe weight loss over a period of months, with a 15.1% loss from November to January. Despite being cognitively intact and expressing dissatisfaction with some meals, the resident's nutritional needs were not adequately addressed. The resident's intake was inconsistent, and although supplements were recommended, they were not consistently administered. The facility's policy required prompt intervention for significant weight loss, but delays in implementing nutritional support were evident. Resident #13 also experienced weight loss, with a decrease from 170 pounds in October to 158.2 pounds in February. The resident had multiple stage 3 and 4 pressure ulcers and other medical conditions that increased susceptibility to weight loss. Although dietary supplements were ordered, there was a delay in their documentation and administration. The Registered Dietary Technician acknowledged the lack of documentation and monitoring, and the Director of Nursing confirmed the resident's susceptibility to weight loss due to underlying conditions. Interviews with staff revealed inconsistencies in monitoring and addressing weight loss. Staff A, responsible for tracking weights, was unsure of Resident #12's eating habits and delayed interventions. Similarly, for Resident #13, there was a lack of timely documentation and intervention despite known weight loss and medical conditions. The facility's failure to adhere to its policy on weight assessment and intervention contributed to the deficiencies observed in the care of these residents.
Oxygen Therapy Not Administered as Ordered
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident received oxygen therapy as per the physician's order. The resident, who had a history of essential hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic neuropathy, anemia, and end-stage Parkinson's disease, was dependent on staff for all activities of daily living and was using oxygen. The physician's order specified that the resident should receive oxygen via nasal cannula at 2 liters per minute continuously for shortness of breath and wheezing. However, observations on two consecutive days revealed that the resident's oxygen concentrator was set at 4.5 liters per minute, contrary to the physician's order. Staff interviews indicated a lack of awareness and adherence to the prescribed oxygen flow rate. A registered nurse admitted to not checking the oxygen machine flow rate, and the unit manager confirmed that the oxygen rate was set incorrectly. The Director of Nursing later provided documentation of a previous order allowing a range of 2-4 liters, which had been discontinued. The hospice nurse was called after the resident was reported to be desaturating, and a new physician order was obtained for 4 liters of oxygen as needed, highlighting the discrepancy in the administration of oxygen therapy.
Lack of Timely RD Oversight for DTR Assessments
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a Registered Dietitian (RD) provided and documented oversight of assessments and recommendations performed by a Dietetic Technician, Registered (DTR) for two residents. The DTR inaccurately listed her title as a Dietitian in the facility's electronic system, which allowed her access to additional resident information. This misrepresentation led to the DTR performing assessments and making recommendations without timely review or approval by an RD. For one resident, the DTR documented a Nutrition/Dietary Note indicating significant weight loss and made recommendations for nutritional interventions. However, the RD did not review or collaborate on this note until over a month later. Similarly, for another resident, the DTR authored an Enteral Nutrition Evaluation Note, but it was not reviewed by an RD until six weeks after the evaluation was written. These delays in RD oversight and documentation review were acknowledged by the facility's Director of Clinical Services and the DTR herself. Interviews with facility staff revealed that the DTR was entered into the electronic system as a Dietitian to access resident information, despite being a DTR. The facility's Director of Clinical Services and the contracted company's Owner/RD confirmed that the DTR's work should be reviewed by an RD within a specific timeframe, which was not adhered to in these cases. The lack of timely RD review and oversight of the DTR's assessments and recommendations contributed to the deficiency identified by the surveyors.
