Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Alden Valley Ridge Rehab & Hcc during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A facility failed to report a sexual abuse allegation involving a cognitively impaired resident to the Illinois Department of Public Health as required by their abuse policy. The incident was reported by a family member with psychiatric issues, and the facility's investigation found the claim unfounded. Despite this, the facility acknowledged the oversight in not reporting the allegation to the state agency.
The facility failed to ensure safe transfer and repositioning practices for four residents, leading to potential safety hazards. CNAs repositioned a resident by pulling her underarms, contrary to her care plan. Another resident was transferred without a gait belt, violating the facility's policy. Additionally, a resident with legal blindness and a history of falls was transferred without a gait belt, and another resident at risk for falls was also transferred without proper support. These actions were inconsistent with the facility's transfer techniques policy.
A LTC facility failed to maintain proper infection control measures, including isolating a COVID-19 positive resident, ensuring mask use for close contacts, and adhering to Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) for residents with medical devices. Staff did not follow hand hygiene protocols during incontinence care, increasing the risk of cross-contamination.
A resident with dementia and other health issues was not provided privacy during incontinence care, as CNAs failed to close the privacy curtain, exposing the resident to his roommate. This incident violated the State of Illinois Residents' Rights, which require privacy during personal and medical care.
Two residents dependent on staff for incontinence care experienced delays in receiving assistance, resulting in saturated briefs and leakage onto bedding. One resident, cognitively intact, reported waiting over five hours for care, while another resident with dementia and paralysis was found with a strong odor of urine and stool in the room. CNAs confirmed delays in providing care, acknowledging that incontinence care should occur every two hours.
A resident with dementia and chronic skin ulcers did not receive physician-ordered treatment for open areas on his buttocks. During care, staff observed multiple open areas and dried blood, with no dressing applied. The resident expressed pain, and the nurse was unaware of the dressing order, failing to adhere to the facility's skin care policy.
A resident with multiple sclerosis and quadriplegia developed a Stage III pressure injury due to inadequate repositioning and pressure-relieving interventions. The resident's care plan required regular repositioning and offloading of heels, which were not consistently followed. Additionally, the resident was found without a dressing on her wound, and there was stool contamination, indicating poor peri-care. The facility's policy on pressure injury prevention and treatment was not adhered to.
The facility failed to provide proper incontinence and catheter care for three residents, increasing the risk of urinary tract infections. CNAs were observed wiping stool from the peri area from back to front, contrary to policy, and a catheter bag was improperly positioned on a bed, causing urine back-flow. These actions did not align with infection prevention protocols.
A facility failed to label a tube feeding bag with the initiation time for a resident receiving continuous tube feeding. The bag was dated but lacked the time, which is crucial for ensuring the bag and tubing are changed within the 24-hour limit. This deficiency was confirmed by both a registered nurse and the DON, who emphasized the importance of including the formula, dose, date, and time on the label.
The facility failed to ensure medications were dispensed according to standards of practice and did not assess residents for self-administration. A resident was found with a medication cup containing pills without staff supervision, and two residents were self-administering nebulizer treatments without proper assessments or care plans. Facility policy requires assessments and physician authorization for self-administration, which were not conducted.
Failure to Report Abuse Allegation to State Agency
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to report an initial resident abuse allegation to the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) concerning an allegation of sexual abuse involving a resident with severe cognitive impairment. The facility's abuse policy requires immediate reporting of such allegations to the Department of Public Health. However, the facility did not comply with this policy. The incident involved a resident who was reported by a family member to have been exposed to inappropriate behavior by an unknown male. The facility's investigation deemed the allegation unfounded, and the incident was not reported to the state agency as required. The resident involved had multiple diagnoses, including dementia and chronic kidney disease, and was unable to converse or interact due to severe cognitive impairment. The family member who reported the incident was also noted to have psychiatric issues and was isolated due to COVID-19 restrictions, which limited contact with the resident. Despite these circumstances, the facility acknowledged that the report to IDPH was overlooked, and the police were later involved, finding no evidence to substantiate the claim. The failure to report the allegation to the state agency constitutes a deficiency in the facility's compliance with abuse reporting requirements.
Unsafe Transfer and Repositioning Practices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure safe transfer and repositioning practices for four residents, leading to potential safety hazards. For one resident, two CNAs repositioned her in bed by pulling her underarms, contrary to her care plan which required the use of an assistive device and a self-hugging position due to her limited range of motion and risk of bruising. Another resident, who had a history of falls and required substantial assistance, was transferred from the commode to a wheelchair without a gait belt, violating the facility's transfer policy. Additionally, a resident with legal blindness and a history of falls was transferred without a gait belt, with the CNA holding him by the back of his pants, despite his unsteadiness. Another resident, at risk for falls due to dementia and other conditions, was also transferred without a gait belt, with the CNA using the back of her pants for support. These actions were inconsistent with the facility's transfer techniques policy, which mandates the use of a gait belt for safe transfers.
Infection Control Deficiencies in LTC Facility
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain proper infection prevention and control measures, as evidenced by several deficiencies observed during the survey. A resident who tested positive for COVID-19 was not kept in isolation as required, and was seen in a common area near the nurses' station without staff intervention to redirect her back to her room. Additionally, another resident who was a close contact of a symptomatic individual was not wearing a mask while in a communal dining area, contrary to the facility's COVID-19 policy. Staff also failed to adhere to Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) for residents with indwelling medical devices or wounds. In one instance, two CNAs provided care to a resident with a urinary catheter without donning the required gowns. Similarly, residents with feeding tubes did not have appropriate EBP signage or PPE available outside their rooms, indicating a lack of compliance with CDC guidelines. Furthermore, there were lapses in hand hygiene practices during incontinence care. CNAs were observed not changing gloves or performing hand hygiene between handling soiled and clean items, which is a critical step in preventing cross-contamination. These actions were inconsistent with the facility's hand hygiene policy, which emphasizes the importance of hand hygiene in preventing the spread of infections.
Failure to Ensure Resident Privacy During ADL Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide privacy for a resident, identified as R17, during activities of daily living (ADL) care. R17, who was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including dementia, non-pressure chronic ulcer of skin, depressive episodes, and kidney disease, was observed on August 19, 2024, at 9:56 AM, receiving incontinence care from two Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), V4 and V5. During this care, R17's incontinence brief was folded downward, exposing his front peri area, while the privacy curtain was not closed. This exposure occurred in the presence of R17's roommate, who was in his bed facing R17 and conversing with the CNAs. The facility's failure to ensure privacy during care was confirmed through an interview on August 20, 2024, at 1:32 PM, with V14 CNA, who acknowledged that resident curtains should be closed during incontinence care to maintain privacy. This incident violated the State of Illinois Residents' Rights, which mandates that residents have a right to privacy and confidentiality during personal and medical care.
Failure to Provide Timely Incontinence Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide timely incontinence care for two residents who were dependent on staff for assistance with activities of daily living. The first resident, who was cognitively intact, reported waiting over five hours for incontinence care, resulting in a saturated brief and urine leakage onto the bed. This incident was observed when a CNA provided care for the first time that day, confirming the resident's brief was indeed saturated. The second resident, who had dementia, impaired cognition, and paralysis due to a stroke, was found in a room with a strong odor of urine and stool. The CNA responsible for the resident's care admitted to last changing the resident's brief several hours earlier. Upon inspection, the resident's brief was saturated with urine and stool, which had leaked onto the bedding, and the resident's buttocks appeared bright pink. The CNA acknowledged that incontinence care should be provided every two hours for residents requiring staff assistance.
Failure to Implement Physician-Ordered Skin Treatment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide physician-ordered treatment for a resident with open areas on his buttocks. The resident, who was admitted with diagnoses including dementia, non-pressure chronic ulcer of skin, depressive episodes, and kidney disease, did not have a care plan that addressed his skin issues. During incontinence care, multiple open areas were observed on the resident's buttocks, and there was no dressing or treatment in place. The resident expressed pain during care, and dried blood was noted on his incontinence brief. A CNA intended to inform the nurse about the condition, but no immediate action was taken. Further observations revealed that the resident's penis was raw and bright red, causing him pain during cleaning. The nurse, unaware of the sores, applied zinc to the buttocks and planned to contact the hospice nurse. The nurse later acknowledged not knowing about the dressing order for the resident's buttocks, which was supposed to be applied every evening shift. The facility's policy on skin alterations emphasized implementing preventative measures and revising care plans as needed, which was not adhered to in this case.
Failure in Pressure Ulcer Care and Prevention
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper pressure ulcer care and prevention for a resident with a history of pressure injuries, multiple sclerosis, spinal stenosis, and quadriplegia. The resident, who was cognitively intact, had a care plan indicating the need for regular repositioning and pressure-relieving interventions due to her inability to reposition herself and her history of bowel incontinence. Despite these measures, the resident developed a Stage III pressure injury on her left buttock, which had previously healed but reopened. Observations revealed that the resident's heels were not offloaded as required, and she was not repositioned adequately, contributing to the reopening of the pressure injury. On multiple occasions, the resident was found without a dressing on her wound, and staff failed to apply a new dressing after the wound was examined by the facility's wound physician. The resident expressed pain and discomfort due to the lack of a dressing, and there was evidence of stool contamination in and around the wound, indicating inadequate peri-care. The facility's policy on pressure injury prevention and treatment was not followed, as staff did not implement the necessary preventative measures and treatment modalities outlined in the resident's individualized care plan.
Improper Incontinence and Catheter Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide appropriate incontinence and catheter care for three residents, leading to potential risks of urinary tract infections. For one resident, the care plan indicated bowel and bladder incontinence due to multiple health conditions, including dementia and chronic kidney disease. During an observation, a CNA was seen wiping stool from the resident's peri area from back to front multiple times, contrary to the facility's policy of cleaning from front to back to prevent infection. Another resident with a urinary catheter also received improper care when a CNA wiped stool from the front peri area from back to front using the same wet wipe, which could increase the risk of infection. Additionally, the facility failed to maintain the catheter bag below the level of the bladder for a resident with a supra-pubic urinary catheter. During an observation, the catheter collection bag was found lying on the bed next to the resident's leg, causing urine back-flow in the tubing. This improper positioning of the catheter bag was acknowledged by a registered nurse, who stated that the bag should be hung below the bladder level to ensure proper drainage and prevent infection.
Failure to Label Tube Feeding Bag with Initiation Time
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper labeling of a tube feeding bag for a resident, identified as R60, who was receiving tube feeding. During an observation on August 19, 2024, it was noted that R60's tube feeding formula bag was dated but lacked the time it was initiated. This oversight was confirmed through interviews with a registered nurse and the Director of Nursing, who both stated that the tube feeding bags should be labeled with the formula, dose, date, and time, as they are only good for 24 hours before needing to be changed. R60's order summary indicated a continuous tube feeding order of 60 ml per hour for 24 hours, highlighting the importance of accurate labeling to ensure proper care and adherence to the order.
Failure to Assess and Authorize Self-Administration of Medications
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure medications were dispensed according to standards of practice and did not assess residents for self-administration of medications. This deficiency was observed in three residents. One resident was found with a medication cup containing sixteen different pills in their room without any nursing staff present, and there was no physician order or assessment for self-administration. The facility's policy requires that all medications be administered as prescribed and that residents be assessed and authorized by a physician to self-administer medications. Two other residents were self-administering nebulizer treatments without proper assessments or care plan entries. One resident had a medication package with multiple doses of nebulizer treatments in their room and stated they had been self-administering since a hospital stay. Another resident was found with nebulizer medication vials on their nightstand and reported self-administering treatments without any training or assessment. The facility's policy mandates that residents be assessed for cognitive, physical, and visual ability to self-medicate and that a care plan be in place, which was not done in these cases.
