Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Westwood Nursing And Rehabilitation Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident room wall near the window was observed damaged and in disrepair, with a crack large enough for an ink pen to be inserted through it. The Maintenance Director said he knew about the damage after the resident reported it about 2 weeks earlier and believed it was caused by an AC leak. The damaged area covered about 6 square feet, while the Administrator said she was not aware of it and that the facility did not have a specific audit for wall or structural integrity checks.
Failure to Maintain ROM With Splint Use: A resident with hemiplegia/hemiparesis and a contracted hand had an OT-recommended resting hand splint program, but there was no physician order, no care plan, and no evidence of a splint application program. The resident said staff rarely applied the splint and that it had become painful to use because the hand had stiffened; staff interviews showed inconsistent awareness of the splint recommendation, and the DON stated she had no idea the resident was supposed to wear a splint.
Damaged Resident Room Wall Left in Disrepair
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide maintenance services to keep a resident bedroom in good repair. In room [ROOM NUMBER], the wall near the window was observed to be damaged and in disrepair, with a crack large enough that the end of an ink pen could be inserted through the wall. The observation was made during a surveyor visit, and photographic evidence was obtained. When the wall was re-observed with the Maintenance Director, he stated he was aware of the damage and said the resident in the room had reported it about 2 weeks earlier. He stated he believed the damage was caused by the air conditioning leaking. The damaged area covered about 6 square feet and extended about 12 inches up the wall. The Administrator later stated she was not aware of the damage and said the facility had room rounds but did not have a specific audit to inspect walls and structural integrity. The facility policy stated that environmental repairs and upkeep would be addressed and corrected in a timely manner, with resident safety taking priority over cosmetic repairs.
Failure to Maintain ROM With Ordered Splint Use
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide appropriate treatment and services to maintain and prevent further decrease in range of motion for a resident with limited ROM. Resident #8 had a diagnosis of hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting the left non-dominant side, and an OT evaluation and discharge summary documented a contracture and recommended a functional maintenance program for splint use, including wearing a resting hand splint on the left hand for 2 hours on and 2 hours off. However, the resident’s current physician orders contained no order for a splint, brace, or ROM to the left hand, and the comprehensive care plan contained no care plan related to limited ROM or splint use. During observation, the resident’s left hand was contracted and no splint was in place. The resident stated staff rarely put the splint on him and that an attempt to apply it was painful because his hand had become stiff again. Record review showed no evidence of a program to apply the splint, and the resident was not on the restorative nursing list. Staff interviews reflected inconsistent awareness of the splint recommendation: the OT stated nursing was verbally informed, the CNA stated restorative, a nurse, or a CNA usually applied the splint, the assigned RN stated the resident did not have a brace or splint, the Director of Therapy stated recommendations were communicated to nursing, and the DON stated she had no idea the resident was supposed to wear a splint.
