Health deficiencies cited at Life Care Center Of Pensacola during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Failure to implement EBP for a resident with a recent colostomy and an unhealed surgical wound. Observations found no EBP signage or PPE outside the room, and the resident stated staff did not wear gowns or other protective equipment during wound care. The DON and Infection Preventionist confirmed EBP had been added to the care plan but was not followed during high-contact care activities, despite the resident’s wound care needs and facility policy requiring targeted gown and glove use.
A facility failed to ensure proper infection control measures for a resident on contact isolation precautions. A housekeeper was observed mopping a room with a C. diff diagnosis without wearing a gown, despite clear signage requiring PPE. The housekeeper misunderstood the requirement, partly due to language barriers, as signs were only in English. Interviews confirmed the resident's diagnosis and the facility's policy mandating gown and gloves for cleaning staff, highlighting a gap in effective staff training.
Failure to Implement Enhanced Barrier Precautions for Resident With Surgical Wound
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to implement Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) for Resident #131, who was newly admitted status post colostomy and had a small dehiscence to the proximal end of a midline abdominal surgical scar requiring wound care. Observations on 09/07/25 and 09/08/25 found no EBP signage posted and no PPE access outside the resident’s room. During interviews, the resident stated that staff did not wear additional gowns or protective equipment during wound care. The DON and Infection Preventionist stated that EBP had been added to the resident’s care plan on 09/05/25, but the signage with PPE instructions was not placed and PPE was not made readily available near the room entrance. They acknowledged that between 09/05/25 and 09/08/25, EBP were not followed during high-contact resident care activities. The physician’s orders, care plan, weekly wound care note, and TAR documented the wound and wound care provided, and the facility policy stated that EBP should be used for residents with wounds such as unhealed surgical wounds and skin openings requiring a dressing, with PPE and alcohol-based hand rub readily accessible.
Inadequate PPE Use for Contact Isolation Precautions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper infection prevention and control measures were followed for a resident on contact isolation precautions. During an initial facility tour, a housekeeper was observed mopping the floor in a room with contact isolation precautions without wearing the required personal protective equipment (PPE), specifically a gown. The room had clear signage indicating the need for gown and gloves upon entry, and instructions for handwashing with soap and water after care. The housekeeper, identified as Staff G, incorrectly believed that a gown was not necessary if the room door was open. This misunderstanding was compounded by the fact that Staff G was not a native English speaker, and the precautionary signs were only in English. Interviews with the Infection Preventionist and the Director of Environmental Services revealed that the resident in the room had been diagnosed with Clostridioides Difficile (C. diff), necessitating contact isolation precautions. The facility's policy on transmission-based precautions clearly stated the requirement for environmental service workers to don gown and gloves before entering rooms for cleaning, especially for patients with infections like C. diff. Despite this policy, the training provided to staff, including color-coded systems for those who may have difficulty reading English, was insufficient to prevent the breach in protocol observed.
