Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Gulfside Health And Rehabilitation Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident was served the wrong lunch tray and initially received an alternate meal that included an ingredient she was allergic to, rather than the primary meal she expected. She reported repeated problems with meal delivery, including missing meals and incorrect items, and staff could not explain why the tray mismatch occurred. The resident later received the primary meal, and records showed an egg allergy, an EpiPen order, and an order to check trays against meal tickets before delivery.
A long-term care facility failed to provide adequate supervision and fall prevention for several residents, leading to multiple unwitnessed falls and injuries. Residents with severe cognitive impairments and high fall risks were not consistently monitored, and necessary safety interventions were not implemented. Documentation was incomplete, with missing neuro checks and post-fall reviews, and care plans were not updated to reflect necessary interventions, contributing to the continued risk of falls.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment experienced unwitnessed falls, resulting in significant facial injuries. Despite the severity, the incident was not reported as required. The resident was found with a laceration and swelling around the eye, and a CT scan revealed multiple facial fractures. The Nursing Home Administrator could not recall if the incident had been reported, and the facility's Reportable Event Tracking Log did not document the fall.
Meal Tray Served With Allergen Ingredient
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide one resident with a meal free from ingredients the resident was allergic to during lunch service. On 6/10/2026, the resident received a tray in her room that contained the alternate meal instead of the primary meal she expected, and the meal ticket showed chicken, rice, peas, and a roll. The resident stated she did not order the alternate meal, believed the kitchen should have served the primary meal unless requested otherwise, and reported that the kitchen had been getting her meals wrong almost every day, including not providing a meal the prior day and not sending condiments for various items. The resident was observed telling an LPN that she did not want what was served and that kitchen staff would not answer the phone so she could choose the primary meal she should have received. By 12:39 p.m., she still had not been provided her primary lunch meal. At 1:53 p.m., she was given another tray with meatloaf, mashed potatoes, peas and carrots, and a roll, which she ate. Review of the meal tickets showed the first tray served was the alternate meal and listed an egg allergy, while the second ticket identified meatloaf as the meal choice. The resident's record showed she had a BIMS score of 15 and was not on a therapeutic or mechanically altered diet. Her physician's orders included an EpiPen for allergic reaction and an order to check all resident trays before lunch and dinner to ensure the food and ticket matched.
Inadequate Supervision and Fall Prevention in LTC Facility
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide adequate supervision for four residents, leading to multiple unwitnessed falls and injuries. Resident #5, who was at high risk for falls due to severe cognitive impairment and other medical conditions, experienced several falls, including one that resulted in significant facial injuries. Despite being identified as a high fall risk, the resident's care plan interventions, such as increased monitoring and 1:1 supervision, were not consistently implemented. Neuro checks were not conducted as required, and there were lapses in monitoring, as evidenced by gaps in the 30-minute check documentation. Resident #6 also experienced multiple unwitnessed falls, with eight incidents recorded over a few months. The resident, who had severe cognitive impairment and a history of falls, was not adequately supervised, and necessary safety interventions, such as perimeter mattresses and fall mats, were not consistently in place. The facility's documentation was incomplete, with missing neuro checks and post-fall reviews for several incidents. The resident's care plan was not updated to reflect necessary interventions, contributing to the continued risk of falls. Resident #3, with severe cognitive impairment and a history of falls, suffered a fall resulting in a nasal fracture and required hospitalization. The resident's care plan included interventions like perimeter mattresses and 30-minute checks, but these were not effectively implemented. Neuro checks were not documented for a fall on 10/29/2024, and a recommended medication review was not performed. The facility's failure to update the care plan and implement necessary interventions contributed to the resident's fall and subsequent injuries.
Failure to Report Resident's Injury After Unwitnessed Fall
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to report an injury of unknown origin following an unwitnessed fall for one resident. The resident, who was admitted with severe cognitive impairment and required assistance with personal care, experienced unwitnessed falls on two occasions. On one such occasion, the resident was found sitting on the floor with a laceration and swelling around the eye, and blood was observed on the face and wall. The resident was sent to the emergency room for evaluation and treatment, where a CT scan revealed multiple facial fractures. Despite the severity of the injuries, the incident was not reported as required. During an interview, the Nursing Home Administrator could not recall if the incident had been reported. A review of the facility's Reportable Event Tracking Log confirmed that the fall with major injury had not been documented. This oversight indicates a failure in the facility's protocol for reporting significant incidents involving residents.
