Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Avalon Health And Rehabilitation during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with severe dementia and behavioral disturbance physically assaulted another resident, holding her down by the hair and bending her finger back, which caused a bleeding hand laceration and an open displaced finger fracture. The assaulted resident was sent to the ER, while the aggressor was transferred to a psych facility under a 1013. Staff interviews and facility records showed the resident had a history of aggressive behaviors, and staff were not provided education on abuse, resident safety, or altercations after the incident.
Staff did not discard expired food and seasonings as required by facility policy, resulting in expired items such as tarragon leaf, cumin seasoning, vegetable oil, and salad mix being found in storage. The Dietary Manager, kitchen staff, and Administrator all confirmed that inventory checks and discarding of expired items are expected, but these procedures were not followed.
A resident with moderate cognitive impairment was found to have cleaning agents and aerosol cans stored in his room, in violation of facility policy. Staff confirmed that such items are not allowed and acknowledged their presence during interviews. The facility did not have a written policy for accidents and hazards available when requested.
Failure to Protect Resident from Physical Abuse by Another Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect one resident from physical abuse by another resident. On 07/06/2026, staff witnessed R87 holding R81 down by her hair and bending her 4th digit back while blood dripped from R81’s palm. R81 was found with an actively bleeding 1.75 cm laceration to the left hand and the 4th digit angled toward the 3rd digit, and she was sent to the emergency room for treatment. The hospital record documented an open displaced fracture of the proximal phalanx of the right ring finger and a laceration of the palm. R87 had been admitted with Alzheimer’s disease with late-onset dementia with behavioral disturbance, and the annual MDS showed severe cognitive impairment with behaviors including delusions, verbal behaviors toward others, rejection of care, and wandering. The care plan addressed behaviors with medication administration, identifying triggers, maintaining a calm manner, redirecting, and removing the resident from stressful situations. The physician ordered transfer to the hospital and R87 was sent to a psychiatric facility under a 1013 for restlessness and agitation. Facility documentation stated R87 assaulted R81, caused a physical injury, and was not transferred back because the facility was unable to meet R87’s needs and protect other residents. Interviews also revealed staff were not provided education on abuse, resident safety, or altercations after the incident.
Expired Food and Seasonings Not Discarded per Policy
Penalty
Summary
Staff failed to discard food and seasonings by their expiration dates, as required by the facility's policy on labeling and dating. During a kitchen tour, surveyors observed expired items including tarragon leaf, cumin seasoning, vegetable oil, and a bag of salad mix. The Dietary Manager confirmed that inventory checks are performed by both herself and kitchen staff, and that expired items should be discarded during these checks. However, the expired items were still present in storage at the time of the survey. Interviews with the Dietary Manager, Registered Dietician, and kitchen staff confirmed that all kitchen staff are responsible for inventory checks and discarding expired items. The Administrator also stated that his expectation is for all inventory items to be labeled, dated, and expired items discarded. Despite these stated procedures and staff training, expired food items were found in storage, indicating a failure to follow established food safety protocols.
Resident Found with Prohibited Chemicals and Aerosols in Room
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from accident hazards by allowing access to harmful chemicals and aerosols. During observations, a resident with moderate cognitive impairment, as indicated by a BIMS score of 11 and diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease and dementia, was found in possession of cleaning agents and aerosol cans in his room. The resident was observed with a bottle of cleaning agent and later revealed that he kept multiple cleaning products and aerosol cans in his dresser drawer. Staff interviews confirmed that residents are not permitted to have cleaning chemicals or aerosols in their rooms under facility policy. Both LPNs and the Director of Nursing acknowledged that these items were present in the resident's possession and confirmed that such items are prohibited. The facility did not have a written policy for accidents and hazards available upon request. The deficiency was identified through direct observation, resident interview, and staff confirmation.
