Sanitation and Food Safety Deficiencies in Kitchen and Pantries
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain proper sanitation and food safety standards in its kitchen and unit pantries, affecting all 110 residents who received food prepared in the facility kitchen. During a kitchen observation, a bottle of lemon juice was found in a cooler without a manufacturer's expiration date, and Ziploc bags containing bananas were covered in ice and frost, indicating improper storage. Additionally, a bag of tater tots was not dated upon opening. Interviews with the Nutrition Services Manager and Dietary Manager revealed discrepancies in understanding the proper disposal timelines for these items. Further observations in the A-wing pantry and dementia unit revealed expired yogurt cups, undated lime sherbet, and ice cream containers with frost and no visible expiration dates. Black debris was also found in the ice machine, indicating a lack of cleanliness. Interviews with staff, including a Qualified Medicine Aide and a Licensed Practical Nurse, confirmed that these items should have been dated and discarded according to the facility's policies. The facility's policies on labeling, dating, and discarding foods, as well as ice machine maintenance, were not adhered to, leading to these deficiencies.
Failure to Utilize Non-Pharmacological Interventions Before Administering Anti-Anxiety Medication
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure non-pharmacological interventions were utilized prior to administering anti-anxiety medication to a resident with Alzheimer's disease, chronic pain, and anxiety. The resident's physician orders included Buspar and Ativan, with the latter prescribed on an as-needed basis for anxiety. Despite the availability of non-pharmacological interventions such as playing music or walking, the staff, particularly RN 3, often resorted to administering Ativan as the easiest solution to manage the resident's anxiety-related behaviors. The resident's records and progress notes revealed multiple instances where Ativan was administered without documented attempts of de-escalation techniques. For example, on several occasions, the resident exhibited anxiety-related behaviors such as packing belongings, refusing medications, and attempting to leave the facility. In these instances, the staff administered Ativan without documenting any non-pharmacological interventions or de-escalation techniques, contrary to the facility's policy. The facility's policies on behavioral health services and psychotropic medication emphasized the use of person-centered care approaches and non-pharmacological interventions. However, the staff failed to adhere to these policies, as evidenced by the lack of documentation of de-escalation techniques and the frequent use of Ativan. The administrator acknowledged that staff should document de-escalation techniques and their effectiveness, but this was not consistently done.
