Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Glasgow State Nursing Facility during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Food storage and kitchen sanitation practices were not followed. Staff observed multiple frozen food items stored outside original containers without labels or dates, and a box of dinner rolls was not fully covered. In addition, a food service employee had uncontained hair and another had uncovered facial hair, despite facility policy requiring hairnets or restraints and beard coverings.
A resident with a history of cognitive impairment and high risk for wandering exited a secured unit without intervention from staff, leading to elopement. The resident followed a Dietary Aide who failed to secure the door and was not on close observation at the time. The resident passed by a Housekeeper and a Security Guard, neither of whom intervened, and was found 0.6 miles away by an RN. Staff interviews revealed a lack of adherence to care plan interventions, resulting in the resident's elopement.

Food Storage and Staff Hair Restraint Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to store, prepare, distribute, and serve food in accordance with professional food service safety standards. During observation of Freezer 1, a bag of chicken nuggets, a bag of fish sticks, a bag of soup, and two pound cakes were found stored outside of their original containers without labels or dates. A box of dinner rolls was also observed in its original box with the flaps partially closed, but the plastic packaging inside the box was not covered. The facility policy titled, Refrigerated Storage, required foods to be properly wrapped and/or stored in sealed containers and dated and labeled. The facility also failed to follow its sanitary practices policy for kitchen staff. One food service employee was observed with uncontained hair at the back neckline area and uncovered bangs, and stated she had forgotten to put on the other hair net even though she normally wore two hair nets because her hair was halfway down her back. A food service worker was observed with uncovered facial hair under his chin and along both jaw lines, and he stated beard covers were available and that he wondered if he should be wearing one. The facility policy required employees to wear hairnets or restraints, clean attire, and clean shoes, and staff interviews confirmed that hairnets and beard coverings were expected in the kitchen.
Failure to Implement Care Plan for High-Risk Wandering Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to implement the care plan for a resident identified as a high risk for wandering. The resident, who had a history of polysubstance abuse disorder, chronic schizophrenia, and neurocognitive disorder, was assessed with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score indicating moderate cognitive impairment. The care plan included interventions such as redirecting the resident away from doors, ensuring doors were securely closed, and maintaining close observation from 9:00 PM to 7:00 AM. However, on the morning of the incident, the resident exited the secured unit behind a kitchen staff member who did not ensure the door was closed, and subsequently left the facility without intervention from staff members who encountered him. The incident occurred when the resident exited the pod at 6:09 AM, following a Dietary Aide who failed to secure the door. The resident was not on close observation at the time, as the intervention was scheduled to end at 7:00 AM. The resident passed by a Housekeeper and a Security Guard, neither of whom intervened, allowing the resident to exit the facility. The Security Guard mistook the resident for a staff member and did not realize a resident was missing until informed by a nurse. The resident was found approximately 0.6 miles from the facility by an RN on her way to work and was returned to the facility at 6:31 AM. Interviews with staff revealed a lack of awareness and adherence to the care plan interventions. The Dietary Aide admitted to not ensuring the door was closed, and the Security Guard was unaware of the resident's identity. The Director of Nursing (DON) and other staff members acknowledged that the care plan interventions were not followed as required, and there was a failure to ensure the pod doors were closed and residents were monitored as per the care plan. This failure to implement the care plan interventions led to the resident's elopement, posing a risk of serious harm.
Removal Plan
- The facility provided an acceptable Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) Removal Plan.
- The facility alleged removal of the IJ.
- The State Survey Agency (SSA) validated the facility's IJ Removal Plan.
- The SSA validated the immediacy of the IJ had been removed.
- The facility was in substantial compliance.
Failure to Prevent Resident Elopement Due to Inadequate Supervision
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide effective monitoring and supervision to prevent the elopement of a resident assessed as high risk for wandering. The resident, who had a history of chronic schizophrenia, neurocognitive disorder, and polysubstance abuse disorder, was care planned for wandering risk with specific interventions. These interventions included ensuring all doors were securely closed, redirecting the resident away from doors, and observing for wandering behavior. However, on the morning of the incident, the facility staff did not adhere to these interventions, allowing the resident to exit the facility without staff knowledge. The incident occurred when a dietary aide failed to ensure the pod door was secured after exiting, which allowed the resident to leave the secured unit. The resident was then seen by a housekeeper in the hallway, who did not intervene, and subsequently exited the facility through the front door without being stopped by the security guard on duty. The security guard, who was responsible for monitoring the front desk and door, mistook the resident for a staff member and did not prevent the exit. The resident was later found walking on a sidewalk 0.6 miles from the facility by an RN on her way to work. Interviews with various staff members revealed a lack of communication and understanding of the procedures for handling residents at risk of elopement. The security guard, who had been employed for approximately four months, was not familiar with the residents and did not perform rounds on the units. The dietary aide admitted to being in a hurry and not ensuring the door was closed, while the housekeeper did not keep the resident in sight or report the situation immediately. These lapses in protocol and supervision contributed to the resident's ability to leave the facility unsupervised.
