Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Arkansas City Presbyterian Manor during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Surveyors found that food items in the kitchen freezer were left unsealed and exposed to air, and cutting boards used for food preparation had deep grooves and scratches, compromising sanitary conditions. Dietary staff acknowledged these issues during the inspection.
A CNA assisted a cognitively impaired resident with wheelchair locomotion in a hallway without using foot pedals, despite the resident's care plan requiring their use due to a history of falls and impaired mobility. Staff interviews confirmed the expectation to use foot pedals, but the facility lacked a written policy on this practice.
Laundry staff did not perform hand hygiene when delivering laundry between multiple resident rooms, contrary to facility policy and expectations. Staff reported they believed this practice was no longer required, while administrative and housekeeping staff confirmed that hand hygiene should be performed with ABHR between rooms and with soap and water after several uses of ABHR.
The facility did not complete daily nurse staffing reports with the actual hours worked by licensed and unlicensed staff, as required by policy. An administrative nurse confirmed that the staffing sheets lacked this information for all residents during the review period.
The facility failed to store foods safely and in sanitary conditions due to staff not dating and properly sealing food items, and not removing undated bread items. Additionally, dietary staff were observed without beard guards in the food preparation area. These issues could potentially spread foodborne illnesses among residents.
The facility failed to ensure a sanitary environment for two residents during incontinent care. Staff did not change gloves or perform hand hygiene after handling soiled items and providing perineal care, increasing infection risks. The administrative nurse acknowledged the need for additional staff education, but no policy on proper procedures was provided.
Food Preparation and Storage Not Maintained Under Sanitary Conditions
Penalty
Summary
During an inspection of the facility's kitchen, surveyors observed multiple food safety concerns. In the freezer, two Ziplock bags containing hamburger patties and one containing chicken strips, as well as a bag of potato wedges, were found unsealed and left wide open, exposing the food to air. Additionally, two of the four cutting boards in the kitchen had deep grooves and scratches, while the other two had multiple scratches, compromising their sanitary condition. Dietary staff confirmed awareness that freezer items should be sealed and acknowledged the need for cutting boards to be free from grooves and scratches.
Failure to Use Wheelchair Foot Pedals During Assisted Locomotion
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) assisted a cognitively impaired resident with wheelchair locomotion in the hallway without the use of wheelchair foot pedals. The resident, who had diagnoses including dementia, long-term use of anticoagulants, and generalized muscle weakness, was documented as having severely impaired cognition and a history of falls with fractures. The resident's care plan specifically instructed staff to lock the wheelchair for all transfers and to position the resident's feet on the foot pedals for all assisted wheelchair locomotion. During the observed incident, the CNA assisted the resident without the foot pedals installed, requiring the resident to hold her feet off the floor while being moved. Interviews with facility staff, including a Licensed Nurse and an Administrative Nurse, confirmed that the standard practice and facility expectation was for all residents to have foot pedals installed and their feet placed on the pedals prior to assisted wheelchair locomotion. The facility had bags attached to wheelchairs for pedal storage, but staff failed to follow the established expectation. Additionally, the facility did not have a written policy regarding the use of wheelchair pedals, relying instead on standard practice. The failure to use foot pedals during assisted locomotion constituted an environment not free from accident hazards and did not provide adequate supervision to prevent accidents.
Failure to Follow Hand Hygiene Protocol During Laundry Delivery
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain an effective infection prevention and control program regarding hand hygiene practices during laundry delivery to resident rooms. On the specified date, two laundry staff members were observed delivering laundry to three resident rooms without performing hand hygiene before entering or after exiting each room. When interviewed, the laundry staff stated they had been informed by a former supervisor that hand hygiene between resident rooms was no longer required after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Further interviews with housekeeping and administrative nursing staff revealed that the facility's expectation was for all staff to perform hand hygiene with alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR) when moving from one resident's room to another, and to wash hands with soap and water after every fourth or fifth use of ABHR. The facility's hand hygiene policy, revised earlier in the year, required staff to comply with hand hygiene guidelines, including before and after direct contact with residents and before and after contact with inanimate objects in the vicinity of residents. The failure of the laundry staff to follow these protocols led to the identified deficiency.
Failure to Accurately Display Daily Nurse Staffing Information
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to display accurate and identifiable nurse staffing information for its 46 residents, as required. Review of the Daily Nurse Staffing Reports over a one-month period showed that the actual hours worked by licensed and unlicensed staff were not completed on the daily reports. This omission was confirmed by an administrative nurse, who acknowledged that the actual hours worked were not recorded as required by facility policy. The policy specified that at the beginning of each shift, the form should identify the actual shift hours expected to be worked by staff directly responsible for resident care.
Failure to Store Foods Safely and Maintain Sanitary Conditions
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to store foods safely and in sanitary conditions due to staff not dating and properly sealing food items, as well as not removing undated bread items, which could potentially spread foodborne illnesses. During an initial tour of the kitchen and a follow-up tour, several issues were observed: 17 facility-made sugar-free health shakes and 19 thawed health shakes lacked prepared dates, a hamburger patty in the freezer was in an open bag without a date, and several opened bags of chicken bites, broccoli, and carrots also lacked opened dates. Additionally, a loaf of bread and a bag of Hawaiian sweet rolls had no use-by dates, and one bag of rolls had mold. Two dented cans of artichoke hearts and dark kidney beans were also found. The small upright freezer had food particles with a gummy film on the shelves. Furthermore, dietary staff were observed in the food preparation area without beard guards on multiple occasions. Dietary staff D and E were seen without beard guards, and dietary staff D confirmed the concerns, stating that items should be dated and pulled after seven days. The facility did not provide a policy regarding the marking of open items and the use of beard guards in the food preparation area. This lack of adherence to proper food storage and preparation protocols could lead to the spread of foodborne illnesses among residents.
Inadequate Hand Hygiene and Glove Use During Incontinent Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide a safe and sanitary environment for two residents, R13 and R19, during incontinent care, leading to potential infection risks. On 03/05/24, CNA C and CNA F assisted R13 with toileting but did not perform hand hygiene or change gloves after removing soiled clothing and providing perineal care. This oversight occurred despite the resident's brief not being visibly soiled, as reported by CNA C. Similarly, on 03/06/24, CNA F and CNA G assisted R19 with toileting using a mechanical lift but failed to change gloves and perform hand hygiene after providing perineal care and handling soiled items. CNA F admitted to not changing gloves when moving from dirty to clean surfaces, which was confirmed during an interview. The administrative nurse acknowledged the need for additional staff education on proper hand hygiene and incontinent care. Despite a request for the facility's policy on these procedures, no policy was provided. The facility's failure to ensure proper glove use and hand hygiene during incontinent care compromised the sanitary environment and increased the risk of infection for the residents involved.
