Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Washington Rehabilitation And Nursing Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Two residents experienced injuries—one a knee fracture during a transfer without a mechanical lift by an LPN, and another a hip fracture after contact with another resident's wheelchair—that were not reported as neglect in a timely manner. Facility leadership did not initiate required investigations or federal reports, citing their belief that the incidents did not constitute neglect, despite policy definitions and reporting requirements.
Staff failed to adhere to infection control protocols for two residents: a laundry aide entered a resident's contact isolation room without PPE and touched the resident's hand, while a wound care nurse did not change gloves or perform hand hygiene during a dressing change for a resident with pressure ulcers. Both actions were contrary to facility policy and posted instructions.
Failure to Timely Report Allegations of Neglect Resulting in Resident Injuries
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely reporting of allegations of neglect for two residents. In one case, a resident who required a mechanical lift for all transfers sustained a right knee fracture during a transfer performed by an LPN using a pivot turn, as the lift could not be located. The LPN did not report the incident immediately because there were no apparent issues after the transfer, and the resident only complained of knee pain later. The Administrator filed a state Adverse report for the fracture due to failure to follow the plan of care but did not initiate a neglect investigation, believing the issue was limited to not following the care plan. In another case, a resident was hospitalized with a fractured hip after an incident involving another resident's wheelchair coming into contact with her leg, causing her to yell out. A bruise was found the next day in the same area, but staff did not believe the incident was severe enough to cause injury and did not report it as neglect. The Administrator stated that a federal report was not filed because they did not feel the incident rose to the level of neglect. The facility's policy defines neglect as the failure to provide necessary goods or services to avoid harm, and federal requirements mandate timely reporting of such allegations.
Failure to Follow Infection Control Practices During Contact Precautions and Wound Care
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when staff failed to follow appropriate infection prevention and control practices for two residents. For one resident on contact precautions due to a multi-drug resistant organism, a laundry aide entered the resident's room without donning a gown or gloves as required by the posted signage and facility policy. The aide touched the resident's bare hand with her own bare hand and later stated she was unaware of the need to use personal protective equipment (PPE) and was unsure if she had received training on isolation procedures. The resident's medical record confirmed an active physician's order for contact isolation precautions. In a separate incident, a wound care nurse performed wound care for a resident with pressure ulcers without changing gloves or performing hand hygiene between removing soiled dressings and applying new ones. The nurse acknowledged after the procedure that she should have changed gloves but did not do so. The facility's policy for clean dressing changes specifies multiple points at which hand hygiene and glove changes are required during the procedure. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the expectation is for staff to follow these infection control practices.
