Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Claridge Court during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Kitchen Hazards Left Unsecured and Unsupervised: Staff left the kitchen area open and unsupervised while residents had access, with both kitchen doors open and no staff present. Surveyors found an unsecured cabinet under the sink containing all-purpose cleaner, an unlocked electrical panel, a heated plate warmer, and three steam wells turned on to high with temperatures up to 374 degrees Fahrenheit. Dietary staff stated the steam table was turned on before breakfast and that the kitchen should be locked when not directly supervised.
Failure to Provide Transfer Notices and Bed Hold Information: A resident with quadriplegia, major depressive disorder, and convulsions was transferred to the hospital multiple times, but the facility lacked the required written transfer notices and did not provide bed hold notices with the per diem rate. Staff stated notifications were made by phone and that written notices were not provided to the legal representative.
A resident with dementia, DM, muscle weakness, CKD, and pressure ulcer risk had a low-air-loss mattress ordered and care-planned to be set at 170 lbs. Surveyors found the mattress pump repeatedly set to the maximum 350-lb setting instead of the ordered range, and an LPN verified the incorrect setting. Staff stated the setting should match the resident’s weight range and that the pump had recently been replaced.
The facility did not conduct required yearly performance evaluations for five CNAs, risking inadequate care for residents. Despite the facility's policy mandating formal performance reviews, no documented evaluations were available, and informal discussions were not recorded. Administrative staff confirmed the absence of formal evaluations, contrary to the facility's policy.
The facility failed to store food items safely and sanitarily after opening original packages. Observations included uncovered and undated food in refrigerators, food stored improperly on the stove and freezer floor, and unlabeled containers. Dietary staff confirmed the need for proper labeling and storage, as per facility policy, to prevent contamination and food-borne illness.
A resident with left-sided hemiparesis and hemiplegia did not have her care plan updated to include restorative services she was receiving, such as range of motion exercises. Despite staff awareness and provision of these services, they were not documented in the care plan or EMR, contrary to facility policy, risking impaired care due to uncommunicated needs.
A resident at risk for pressure ulcers had a low air-loss mattress set incorrectly for their weight, increasing the risk of skin breakdown. The resident, with a history of peripheral vascular disease, congestive heart failure, and incontinence, required pressure-reducing devices. However, the mattress was set for a body weight of 180 lbs, while the resident weighed approximately 109.6 lbs. Facility staff were expected to monitor the mattress settings, but the incorrect setting was attributed to an issue with the bed's head not inflating properly.
The facility failed to use wheelchair foot pedals while transporting two residents, both at risk for falls due to cognitive and physical impairments. Observations showed residents' feet dragging on the floor, contrary to staff expectations and facility policy, placing them at risk for preventable injuries.
A resident with chronic health conditions was at risk for unnecessary medication administration due to the facility's failure to consistently monitor and document the pulse before administering carvedilol. Despite the care plan's directive to monitor for side effects, staff only assessed vital signs weekly, contrary to the need for more frequent monitoring as acknowledged by a nurse.
A facility failed to document a physician's rationale for using Seroquel for a resident with dementia and major depressive disorder. The resident's records lacked evidence of unsuccessful non-pharmacological interventions before starting the medication, and the care plan did not document these attempts. The facility's policy required a clinical rationale and gradual dose reductions, which were not documented, placing the resident at risk for unnecessary psychotropic medication use.
Kitchen Hazards Left Unsecured and Unsupervised
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to secure potentially hazardous kitchen equipment in a safe, locked area and out of reach of six cognitively impaired, independently mobile residents. During a walkthrough on 01/12/26 at 07:00 AM, the hallway door to the kitchen was observed fully open, and both interior kitchen doors were also open. No staff were observed in the kitchen or surrounding dining area, and residents had access to the area. An inspection of the kitchen found an unsecured cabinet below the sink containing four spray bottles of all-purpose cleaner labeled with warnings including keep out of reach of children, hazardous to humans, can cause eye irritation, and harmful if swallowed. The inspection also identified an unlocked electrical panel labeled LP3 with a warning for hazardous voltage that could cause death or injury. In the kitchen, a heated plate warmer contained a plate and measured 167 degrees Fahrenheit. Three of five steam wells on the steam table were turned on to high settings, were empty, and were hot to the touch; their temperatures measured 238, 323, and 374 degrees Fahrenheit. Dietary staff stated the steam wells were turned on before food arrived to keep meals hot, and one staff member stated she was unsure whether it was okay to leave the area unsupervised during meal delivery upstairs. Another staff member stated the kitchen doors were to be locked when not directly supervised, and a third staff member stated staff were expected to monitor the kitchen area while it was open.
Failure to Provide Transfer Notices and Bed Hold Information
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide a written notice of transfer/discharge as soon as practicable and failed to provide a bed hold notice with the required information for R20. R20’s EMR documented diagnoses of quadriplegia, major depressive disorder, and convulsions. The record showed multiple facility-initiated transfers to the hospital, including an Alert Note on 06/04/25 at 01:16 AM and Health Status Notes on 06/26/25 at 07:27 PM, 07/21/25 at 05:02 PM, and 10/21/25 at 06:41 PM documenting that R20 was transferred to the hospital. The facility lacked a Bed Hold Notice that included the facility’s per diem rate to hold a bed and lacked the required written notification of transfer for these hospital transfers. On 01/13/26, Administrative Staff B provided only a bed hold dated 10/21/25 and stated she could not locate any other bed holds or written notifications for R20’s facility-initiated transfers to the hospital. She stated the nurse would notify the legal representative by phone and that the facility did not provide written notification to the legal representative. On 01/14/26, Administrative Nurse E stated the resident or legal representative would be notified at the time of transfer, that the legal representative would be notified if the resident was cognitively impaired, and that the nurse would be responsible for notifying the legal representative and providing the bed hold.
Low-Air-Loss Mattress Left at Incorrect Weight Setting
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure Resident 18’s pressure-reducing interventions were implemented correctly when her low air-loss mattress was not set within her current weight range. Resident 18 had diagnoses including dementia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, muscle weakness, and chronic kidney disease. Her quarterly MDS indicated a BIMS score of 7, substantial to maximal assistance with bathing, dressing, toileting, transfers, personal hygiene, and bed mobility, and that she was at risk for pressure ulcers. Her pressure ulcer CAA identified risk related to decline in mobility, incontinence, and decreased cognition. Her care plan documented that she was admitted with open areas to her coccyx, was to have skin inspected during each bathing occurrence, was to use a low-air-loss mattress, and was to receive side-to-side turning while in bed. The care plan also noted hospice provided the mattress and instructed staff to ensure it was set to 170 lbs., and a physician order dated 06/14/25 instructed staff to ensure the pump was set to normal pressure at 170 lbs. During observations on 01/12/26, 01/13/26, and 01/14/26, Resident 18’s low-air-loss mattress pump was found set to the maximum weight setting of 350 lbs. The mattress pump had fixed settings ranging from 80 lbs. to 350 lbs. On 01/14/26, LN G verified the bed was set to 350 lbs. and stated it should be set to the resident’s weight range, closest to 170 lbs.; he also stated the pump had recently been replaced and staff may have bumped the control panel while making the bed. Administrative Nurse D stated staff were expected to check the mattress settings each shift and ensure they were set to the care-planned settings. The manufacturer’s manual stated the mattress system was intended to reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers and that pressure levels and firmness were preset based on weight range and comfort settings.
Failure to Conduct Yearly Performance Evaluations for CNAs
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to conduct the required yearly performance evaluations for five Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs), which placed residents at risk for inadequate care. The CNAs, hired between 2001 and 2022, did not have any documented yearly performance evaluations available upon request. The facility's performance evaluation records lacked evidence of any formal evaluations, goals, or discussions regarding areas of improvement for these CNAs. This deficiency was identified during a review of the facility's records and interviews with administrative staff. Administrative Staff A acknowledged that the facility did not perform formal yearly performance evaluations on paper. Instead, they conducted informal meetings with staff to discuss merit increases and performance, but these discussions were not documented, and staff did not sign any documents to confirm what was discussed. The facility's Performance Management policy requires periodic performance reviews to assess team members' strengths, areas for improvement, and potential growth, supported by specific examples and facts. However, the facility did not adhere to this policy, as evidenced by the lack of documented evaluations for the CNAs reviewed.
Improper Food Storage Practices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that food items were stored in a safe and sanitary manner after the original sealed packages had been opened. During an initial tour, several deficiencies were observed, including a half-eaten brown cake in the refrigerator that was uncovered and undated, bags of sausage left on the cooking stove, and a canister of sugar under the work prep table that was neither labeled nor dated. Additionally, a cooler with a see-through glass door contained small bowls of various food items such as lettuce, tomatoes, ham, cheese, onions, and a container of fish, all of which were uncovered and undated. In the small freezer, a half-open bag of ravioli was exposed to the air and undated, while avocados and pea salad in the small side refrigerator were also undated. Further inspection revealed that the walk-in freezer had a box labeled 'pies' stored on the floor, and the walk-in refrigerator contained a steam table pan with red sauce and olives that was neither dated nor labeled. Dietary staff confirmed that all foods removed from their original containers should be dated and labeled, and no foods should be stored on the freezer floors. The facility's Production, Purchasing, and Storage Policy, revised in January, stated that all stored foods not in their original packages must be stored in approved containers with tight-fitting lids, and all containers must be labeled and dated. The facility's failure to adhere to these standards placed residents at risk for contamination and food-borne illness.
Failure to Update Care Plan with Restorative Services
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to revise the care plan for Resident 7 to include her implemented restorative services and goals, which was identified as a deficiency. Resident 7 had medical diagnoses of left-sided hemiparesis, hemiplegia, and a left-hand contracture, requiring substantial assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) and mobility. Her care plan, initiated in August, noted her risk for ADL self-performance deficit but did not document the range of motion exercises intended to maintain or improve her condition. Despite receiving restorative services for active range of motion, these were not reflected in her care plan, leading to a lack of communication about her care needs. Observations and interviews revealed that staff were aware of the restorative services provided to Resident 7, such as upper body range of motion exercises performed by a restorative aid several times a week. However, these services were not documented in the care plan or the task section of the electronic medical records (EMR), as confirmed by a review with an administrative nurse. The facility's policy required care plans to be updated with current care treatment goals and objectives, but this was not adhered to, placing Resident 7 at risk for impaired care due to uncommunicated care needs.
Incorrect Mattress Settings for Resident at Risk of Pressure Ulcers
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain the correct settings on a low air-loss mattress for a resident, identified as R2, who was at risk for pressure ulcer development. R2's medical history included peripheral vascular disease, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, and incontinence, which increased the risk for skin breakdown. The resident's care plan included interventions to prevent skin breakdown, such as the use of pressure-reducing devices and frequent monitoring of skin moisture. However, the care plan did not document the use of a low air-loss mattress, which was ordered for R2 to prevent skin breakdown. Observations revealed that R2's low air-loss mattress was set for a body weight of 180 lbs, despite R2 weighing approximately 109.6 lbs. This discrepancy was confirmed by both a licensed nurse and an administrative nurse, who acknowledged that the setting was too high for R2's weight. The incorrect setting made the mattress firmer, potentially contributing to skin breakdown, as noted by the licensed nurse. The administrative nurse stated that the hospice provided the mattress and was responsible for setting the pressure, but facility staff were expected to monitor it every shift. The facility's wound care policy emphasized the use of evidence-based practices for pressure injury prevention and treatment, yet the failure to adjust the mattress settings according to R2's weight placed the resident at increased risk for pressure ulcer development. The administrative nurse later discovered that the mattress was set to 180 lbs due to an issue with the bed's head not inflating properly, indicating a lack of communication and oversight in ensuring the mattress was functioning correctly for R2's needs.
Failure to Use Wheelchair Foot Pedals Puts Residents at Risk
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure an environment free from accident hazards by not utilizing wheelchair foot pedals while transporting two residents, identified as R18 and R22, around the facility. Both residents were at risk for falls due to their conditions, with R18 having severe cognitive impairment and R22 having poor gait/balance and muscle weakness. Observations revealed that R22 was pushed in her wheelchair without foot pedals, causing her shoes to drag on the floor, and R18 experienced similar issues with his feet contacting the ground during transport. Interviews with staff, including a Certified Nurses Aid (CNA) and an Administrative Nurse, confirmed that residents should not have their feet dragging while being pushed in wheelchairs. The facility's policy stated that residents' needs for adaptive equipment should be met, yet this was not adhered to in these instances. The failure to use foot pedals placed both residents at risk for preventable injuries and falls, highlighting a deficiency in the facility's adherence to safety protocols.
Failure to Monitor Pulse Before Carvedilol Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure consistent monitoring and documentation of a resident's pulse before administering carvedilol, a medication used to treat high blood pressure. The resident, who had a history of chronic respiratory failure, hypertension, ischemic cardiomyopathy, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, was at risk for unnecessary medication administration and potential adverse side effects due to this oversight. The resident's care plan required staff to monitor for side effects and effectiveness of anti-hypertensive medications, but the clinical record lacked evidence of consistent pulse monitoring prior to carvedilol administration. Interviews with facility staff revealed discrepancies in the monitoring practices. A licensed nurse acknowledged the need to monitor and document the pulse before administering beta-blockers like carvedilol, while an administrative nurse stated that vital signs were typically assessed only once a week, as per the pharmacist's guidance. The facility's medication administration policy required contacting the attending physician or medical director if a medication was believed to be inappropriate or associated with adverse consequences, but this protocol was not followed, leading to the deficiency.
Lack of Documentation for Antipsychotic Medication Use
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a documented physician rationale for the use of Seroquel, an antipsychotic medication, for a resident with dementia and major depressive disorder. The resident's medical records lacked evidence of multiple unsuccessful attempts at non-pharmacological interventions before the initiation of Seroquel. The resident's care plan included instructions for non-threatening approaches and redirection, but it did not document any unsuccessful behavioral interventions attempted prior to starting the medication. The facility's policy required a clinical rationale and gradual dose reductions, which were not documented in this case. The resident's electronic medical records showed an increase in Seroquel dosage over time without documented justification for the medication's necessity or effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions. Interviews with facility staff revealed that while non-pharmacological strategies like redirection and re-orientation were mentioned, there was no documentation of these attempts in the resident's records. The facility's failure to document these efforts placed the resident at risk for unnecessary psychotropic medication use and related complications.
