Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Milner Community Health Care during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to complete MDS assessments on time for 6 residents. For each resident reviewed, the last completed MDS was several months old and the next quarterly MDS was still incomplete and in progress. During interview, the DON said the current MDS coordinator had just been hired, the prior coordinator had resigned and been absent for some time, and several MDS assessments were late; she also stated the facility did not have an MDS policy and followed state rules.
The facility failed to follow physician orders for medication administration and notify physicians of high blood sugar levels, affecting four residents. Medications were improperly administered despite hold parameters, and high blood sugar was not reported. Additionally, bowel movements were not monitored or documented for two residents, with no assessments or medications provided for constipation.
The facility failed to update the PASARR for two residents when new mental health diagnoses or psychiatric medications were added. One resident had major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder not reflected in the PASARR, despite being prescribed Cymbalta. Another resident's PASARR did not include a new diagnosis of major depressive disorder. The Social Services Director acknowledged these oversights and the lack of a PASARR policy.
A facility failed to conduct an accurate bed rail assessment for a resident who had bilateral bed rails at the head of the bed. The resident's clinical record showed conditions such as aphasia following a stroke, hemiparesis, hemiplegia, and hypertension. A prior assessment indicated the resident did not use bed rails for independent mobility, could not push away from the rail, and lacked a medical reason for bed rails. The DON acknowledged the need for a new assessment, as per the facility's bed rail policy.
The facility failed to properly label and store medications, including gabapentin, Prostat, and morphine sulfate, as observed during a survey. Medications lacked open dates and resident labels, contrary to facility policy. These deficiencies involved residents with conditions such as stroke, Alzheimer's, and diabetes.
Late MDS Assessments for Multiple Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure MDS assessments were completed timely for 6 of 6 residents reviewed for MDS assessments. The last completed MDS for Resident 15 was dated 3/17/25, and the MDS dated 6/20/25 was still incomplete and in progress. Resident 23’s last completed MDS was dated 3/19/25, with the 6/18/25 MDS still incomplete and in progress. Resident 32’s last completed MDS was dated 3/21/25, with the 6/20/25 MDS still incomplete and in progress. Resident 36’s last completed MDS was dated 3/12/25, and the 6/12/25 MDS remained incomplete and in progress. Resident 39’s last completed MDS was dated 3/13/25, and the 6/13/25 MDS remained incomplete and in progress. Resident 43’s last completed MDS was dated 3/20/25, and the 6/19/25 MDS remained incomplete and in progress. During interview, the DON stated the current MDS coordinator had been hired about a week earlier, the previous MDS coordinator had resigned and been absent from the facility for some time, and she knew several MDS assessments were late. The DON also stated the facility did not have a policy for MDS and followed state rules.
Failure to Follow Physician Orders and Monitor Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to physician-ordered hold parameters for medications for four residents, leading to inappropriate administration of medications. For Resident 34, medications such as metoprolol, midodrine, and torsemide were administered despite blood pressure readings that should have prompted a hold according to the physician's orders. The Assistant Director of Nursing indicated that the nurses misunderstood the hold parameters, believing both blood pressure and pulse needed to be out of range to hold the medications. For Resident 44, the facility did not notify the physician of a high blood sugar reading as required by the physician's order. The resident's blood sugar was recorded at 500, but there was no documentation indicating that the physician was informed. The Director of Nursing acknowledged that the physician should have been notified of the high blood sugar level. Additionally, the facility failed to monitor and document bowel movements for Residents 25 and 40. Resident 25 did not have a documented bowel movement for 12 days, and there was no record of an abdominal assessment or administration of as-needed medication for constipation. Similarly, Resident 40 did not have a care plan for constipation and lacked documentation of bowel movements for two separate four-day periods. The Assistant Director of Nursing confirmed that assessments were not completed or documented, and the residents were not given medications to promote bowel movements.
Failure to Update PASARR for New Mental Health Diagnoses
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to complete a new Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) for two residents when new mental health diagnoses or psychiatric medications were added. For Resident 31, the clinical record review revealed that the resident had diagnoses of major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, which were not included in the original PASARR dated 9/17/20. The resident was prescribed Cymbalta, an antidepressant medication, but this was not reflected in the PASARR. The Social Services Director acknowledged missing these diagnoses and medications, indicating that a new PASARR should have been initiated when these changes occurred. Similarly, for Resident 34, the PASARR level 1 screens dated 3/25/24 and 4/15/24 did not reflect the diagnosis of major depressive disorder, which had an onset date of 4/1/24. The Social Services Director was unaware of this diagnosis and admitted to not having a PASARR policy, instead following Indiana regulations. This oversight resulted in the failure to update the PASARR to reflect the resident's current mental health status.
Failure to Conduct Accurate Bed Rail Assessment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure an accurate bed rail assessment was completed for a resident who was reviewed for bed rails. During an observation, the resident was found to have bilateral bed rails at the head of the bed. The resident's clinical record indicated diagnoses including aphasia following a stroke, hemiparesis and hemiplegia, and hypertension. A facility document titled 'Bed Rail Appropriateness Assessment' dated prior to the observation indicated that the resident did not use bed rails to promote independent mobility, was unable to push himself away from the rail if he rolled against it, and did not have a medical reason requiring bed rails. During an interview, the Director of Nursing acknowledged that a new assessment should have been completed for the resident. The facility's bed rail policy, updated in 2021, stated that if the resident or their Power of Attorney and the facility felt bed rails might benefit the resident, a bed rail assessment would be conducted.
Medication Labeling and Storage Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper labeling and storage of medications, as observed during a survey. In the Talyst room, a 100-milliliter bottle of gabapentin was found in the refrigerator without an open date, which was confirmed by the Director of Nursing as a requirement. This medication was prescribed to a resident with a history of aphasia following a stroke, hemiparesis, hemiplegia, and hypertension, with orders to administer it twice daily. Additionally, a medication cart was found with an opened bottle of cherry-flavored Prostat, a liquid protein supplement, without a resident's name or label. This supplement was prescribed to a resident with Alzheimer's disease, hyperlipidemia, and heart failure. Furthermore, another medication cart contained a bottle of morphine sulfate without an open date, despite a sticker indicating it should be discarded 90 days after opening. This medication was prescribed to a resident with type 2 diabetes, anxiety, and fibromyalgia. The facility's policy requires medications to be labeled with open dates and resident-specific nonprescription medications to be identified with the resident's name.
