Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Life Care Center Of Boise during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with multiple diagnoses was allowed to keep Excedrin and Gas-X pills in an open bedside drawer without a completed self-administration assessment. Facility staff, including an LPN and the DON, confirmed that no assessment had been performed and that the resident was not authorized to self-administer medications, resulting in a failure to follow policy and ensure safe medication storage.
A resident did not receive the specialized rehabilitative services required for their care, as the facility failed to provide or obtain these necessary interventions according to the resident's care plan.
A resident with an indwelling urinary catheter and diagnoses of bladder-neck obstruction and obstructive uropathy did not have urinary output obtained and documented as ordered over multiple shifts. Staff interviews revealed that CNAs measured and reported output to nurses verbally or on sticky notes, but this information was not consistently documented in the medical record, and no specific form was used for CNA charting. The facility's policy required tracking output for residents with catheters, but lacked specific guidance on documentation.
Failure to Assess and Secure Medications for Self-Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to complete a self-administration assessment for a resident before allowing medications to be kept at the bedside. Facility policy requires that the interdisciplinary care team assess each resident for the safety and clinical appropriateness of self-administering medications, including the resident’s ability to identify medications, understand side effects, and store medications securely. Despite this, a resident with diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder, GERD, and chronic pain was found to have a cup containing Excedrin and Gas-X pills in the open drawer of the bedside table. The resident reported that staff provided these medications and allowed them to be stored in the drawer. Further review confirmed that there was no completed assessment for the resident’s ability to self-administer medications, and the medications were not stored in a locked compartment as required. Both an LPN and the DON confirmed that the resident did not have an assessment for self-administration and was not authorized to self-administer medications. The lack of assessment and unsecured storage of medications constituted a failure to follow facility policy and ensure safe medication practices.
Failure to Provide Required Specialized Rehabilitative Services
Penalty
Summary
A resident did not receive specialized rehabilitative services as required for their care. The facility failed to provide or obtain these services, which were necessary to meet the resident's assessed needs. This inaction resulted in the resident not receiving the appropriate rehabilitative interventions as indicated in their care plan.
Failure to Document Urinary Output for Resident with Indwelling Catheter
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to obtain and document urinary outputs as ordered for a resident with an indwelling urinary catheter. The resident, who had diagnoses including bladder-neck obstruction and obstructive and reflux uropathy, was admitted with a physician's order to record catheter output every shift. The resident's care plan also directed staff to monitor output every shift and observe for signs and symptoms of urinary tract infections. However, review of the Treatment Administration Records (TARs) over several months revealed multiple instances where urinary output was not obtained or documented across various shifts. Additionally, nursing progress notes did not contain documentation for the missing output amounts. Interviews with staff indicated that CNAs were responsible for emptying the catheter bag, measuring urinary output, and reporting it to the nurse, who was then responsible for documenting the output on the TAR. The process relied on verbal or written communication (such as sticky notes) from CNAs to nurses, with no specific form or direct CNA charting of the output. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the facility's goal was to have all charting completed, and acknowledged that if documentation was missing, it was considered not done. The facility's policy required tracking of output for all residents with indwelling catheters, but did not provide specific guidance on obtaining and documenting urinary output.
