Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Place At Deans Bridge, The during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Surveyors found that open food items in storage areas were not securely wrapped, labeled, or dated, and expired food was not discarded as required by facility policy. The Dietary Manager confirmed the presence of expired and unlabeled food, and unmarked storage bins containing sugar and flour were also observed.
An LPN did not perform hand hygiene between glove changes during blood glucose testing for a resident with diabetes, and laundry staff transported clean resident clothing uncovered, allowing it to contact hallway surfaces and the floor. These actions did not comply with infection prevention and control policies.
Surveyors identified expired medications in both a medication storage room and a medication cart, including magnesium oxide, vitamin D, milk of magnesia, Geri Lanta, iron tablets, docusate sodium liquid, aspirin, and folic acid. Despite facility policy and staff responsibilities for removing expired drugs, these medications remained accessible during the survey.
Failure to Properly Store, Label, and Discard Food Items
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility failed to properly store, label, and date open food items in the dry storage area and walk-in freezer, as well as failed to discard food items past their expiration dates. Specifically, a container of chicken bouillon concentrate with a use-by date that had already passed was found in the walk-in freezer, along with opened and undated bags of breaded chicken tenderloin strips, sliced squash, tater tots, and chopped broccoli. Additionally, two floor dry storage bins containing sugar and flour were unmarked and undated. The Dietary Manager confirmed that the bouillon was expired and that the frozen chopped broccoli was leftover from a previous meal and had not been labeled. The facility's policy required labeling, dating, and monitoring of food items, but these procedures were not followed, and all staff were responsible for discarding expired food and rotating stock.
Failure to Follow Hand Hygiene and Linen Transport Protocols
Penalty
Summary
Staff failed to follow proper hand hygiene protocols during blood glucose testing for a resident diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic peripheral angiopathy. Specifically, an LPN changed gloves without performing hand hygiene between glove changes while conducting a finger stick blood glucose test. The LPN later acknowledged that hand hygiene should have been performed between glove changes but stated she was overwhelmed at the time. Additionally, infection control procedures were not followed during the transportation and handling of clean linen and resident clothing. A laundry attendant was observed transporting clean linen in a covered cart, but resident clothing was hanging uncovered from the cart's handlebars, coming into contact with hallway walls and handrails. Clean clothing was also observed with part of a garment resting on the floor in the laundry room. The laundry attendant confirmed a lack of awareness regarding the need to keep resident clothing covered and admitted to having transported uncovered laundry multiple times.
Expired Medications Found in Active Storage Areas
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors found that the facility failed to remove expired medications from active medication storage areas, including one medication storage room and one of two medication carts. During an observation, several expired medications were identified, such as magnesium oxide, vitamin D, milk of magnesia, Geri Lanta, iron tablets, docusate sodium liquid, aspirin, and folic acid, with expiration dates ranging from the previous month to the current month. These expired medications were accessible in both the storage room and a medication cart, despite the facility's policy requiring the removal and proper disposal of outdated or deteriorated medications. Interviews with facility staff revealed that the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) had recently checked the storage room and believed all expired medications had been removed, expressing surprise at the survey findings. The Director of Nursing (DON) stated that a pharmacy consultant conducts monthly audits of medication carts and that expired medications are supposed to be removed during these audits. The supply clerk is responsible for auditing and stocking the medication supply room, while nurses and managers are tasked with discarding expired medications. Despite these procedures, expired medications remained in active storage areas at the time of the survey.
