Health deficiencies cited at Three Crowns Park during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with significant medical needs was physically abused by a CNA, who struck the resident's arm and hand and yelled at her during care, causing pain and emotional distress. The incident was witnessed by an RN who intervened after hearing the resident's cries for help. The resident had previously experienced rough handling by the same CNA, which had not been addressed. The facility failed to ensure the resident remained free from abuse as required by policy.
A resident with significant medical needs reported being struck multiple times by a CNA during care, resulting in immediate pain and distress. The RN on duty did not immediately remove the alleged perpetrator from resident contact, and the facility's investigation failed to adequately assess the resident's statements or apply the regulatory definition of abuse, ultimately concluding the allegation was unsubstantiated without proper evaluation.
A resident, who was cognitively intact and had multiple medical conditions, had her wallet stolen after using her credit card with the assistance of a staff member. The wallet was later found outside the facility with the credit card missing, which was then used for unauthorized purchases. The incident occurred while the resident was in her room with only one employee present, and the resident had not left the facility.
Two residents on contact isolation for MRSA and C. difficile were not provided with appropriate room placement or signage, and a breathing mask was left uncontained after use. One resident was observed sharing a room and moving throughout the facility despite care plan instructions to remain in their room, and there was no documentation to support discontinuation of isolation precautions.
A resident with chronic conditions and high fall risk was injured during an unsafe transfer by a CNA, resulting in lacerations to her toes requiring sutures. The CNA did not use the mechanical lift or seek assistance, contrary to facility policy, leading to the resident's fall and subsequent injury.
Failure to Protect Resident from Physical Abuse by CNA
Penalty
Summary
A cognitively intact resident with diagnoses including Parkinson's Disease, spinal stenosis, and scoliosis, who requires staff assistance for all activities of daily living, was subjected to physical abuse by a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) during care. The resident reported that the CNA hit her arm and hand multiple times while using a sit-to-stand machine, causing immediate pain and emotional distress. Despite the resident's pleas for the CNA to stop due to pain from improper use of equipment, the CNA continued, slapped the resident, and yelled at her to stop screaming. The incident was witnessed by a Registered Nurse (RN) who responded to the resident's cries for help and observed the CNA at the bedside. The resident also reported a history of the CNA being rough and rushing through care, though previous incidents had been overlooked. The RN reported the incident to the Director of Nursing (DON), who instructed that the CNA be sent home immediately after confirming the resident's allegation of abuse. The facility's executive director did not respond to initial communications regarding the incident, and the CNA was ultimately terminated for not meeting service standards. The facility's policy prohibits any form of resident abuse and requires staff to report and identify inappropriate behaviors, but the incident demonstrates a failure to protect the resident from physical abuse and to ensure staff adhered to abuse prevention protocols.
Failure to Properly Investigate and Respond to Alleged Resident Abuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to conduct a thorough and accurate investigation into an allegation of abuse involving a cognitively intact resident with Parkinson's Disease, Spinal Stenosis, and Scoliosis, who requires staff assistance for all activities of daily living. On two separate occasions, the resident was heard screaming for help, stating that a CNA was hurting her. The RN on duty responded and observed the CNA at the bedside, with the resident reporting that the CNA had hit her arm and hand multiple times during care, causing immediate pain. The resident consistently described being struck and experiencing distress during interviews. Despite the resident's clear and repeated outcries, the nurse on duty did not provide immediate protection by removing the alleged perpetrator from resident contact, instead attempting to reassign the CNA to a different resident. Only after direct instruction from the DON was the CNA removed from the building. The facility's investigation did not adequately evaluate the resident's distress or reconcile witness statements with the regulatory definition of abuse, which includes the willful infliction of physical pain regardless of injury or malicious intent. The investigation concluded that the allegation was unsubstantiated without properly assessing the credibility of the resident's statements or applying the federal definition of physical abuse. The CNA involved was terminated for not meeting service standards, but was not available for interview. The executive director did not participate in the surveyor's investigation, and the interim administrator who conducted the internal investigation was no longer with the facility. Facility policy defines abuse broadly, including physical and mental abuse, but the investigation failed to apply these standards to the incident.
Failure to Protect Resident from Misappropriation of Property
Penalty
Summary
A resident with a history of heart failure, heart valve replacement, hypertension, neoplasm of the breast, and hearing loss, who was cognitively intact, experienced misappropriation of property while residing in the facility. The resident's wallet was stolen after she had used her credit card to make an online purchase and placed the wallet back in her purse while in her room with only one employee present. Later, the wallet was found outside the facility by a postman, and it was discovered that the credit card was missing and had been used for unauthorized purchases. The resident had not left the facility during this time. The incident was reported to the police, who initiated an investigation and reviewed video footage. The resident identified that a female staff member had assisted her on the day of the incident, but could not provide further identifying details. The administrator confirmed that the staff member assigned to the resident was a Certified Nursing Assistant from an agency, but could not definitively identify the individual responsible. The facility's policy defines misappropriation as the wrongful use of a resident's belongings without consent and requires immediate reporting of such incidents.
Failure to Implement and Maintain Contact Isolation Protocols
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to follow established contact isolation protocols for two residents with infectious conditions. Specifically, the facility did not place the correct contact isolation signage on the resident's room door, did not ensure that a resident on contact isolation was placed in a private room, and did not properly contain a resident's breathing mask after use. One resident with a history of MRSA infection, pressure-induced deep tissue damage, and other significant medical conditions was observed sharing a room with another resident, with only enhanced barrier precaution signage posted. The resident's breathing mask was left open to air at the bedside, contrary to infection control protocols. The resident was also observed moving freely throughout the facility and attending group activities. Facility records indicated that the resident was still on contact isolation for MRSA and C. difficile, with care plans specifying that the resident should remain in their room and that staff should adhere to contact isolation protocols. However, there was no documentation from a physician or infection preventionist discontinuing the contact isolation, despite staff statements that the hospital had discontinued it. The facility was unable to provide documentation supporting the discontinuation of isolation, and the Director of Nursing confirmed that the resident should have been in a private room with appropriate signage and that the breathing mask should have been contained after use.
Unsafe Transfer Leads to Resident Injury
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to transfer a resident safely, resulting in the resident falling and sustaining lacerations to her right foot's 3rd, 4th, and 5th toes, which required sutures. The resident, who has chronic kidney disease, spinal stenosis, and chronic pain, is at high risk for falls due to impaired balance and requires staff assistance with transfers using a sit-to-stand lift. However, during the incident, the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) attempted to transfer the resident from bed to wheelchair without using the mechanical lift or seeking additional assistance, leading to the resident sliding down and injuring her toes. The incident occurred in the resident's room, and the CNA involved was an agency staff member who no longer works at the facility. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the CNA should have used the mechanical stand lift or asked for help to ensure a safe transfer. The facility's policy on safe lifting and transfers emphasizes the use of appropriate techniques and devices to protect the safety and well-being of both staff and residents. Despite these guidelines, the failure to adhere to the policy resulted in the resident's injury.
