Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Henson Park Health & Rehabilitation during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to follow professional sanitation standards, as an ice scoop was stored uncovered by an ice machine, and a dietary aide was observed towel drying plate covers instead of air drying them. The Dietary Director was unaware of the requirement for covered storage of the ice scoop, and the dietary aide was not informed about the proper drying procedure.
The facility failed to maintain a safe and homelike environment, with issues such as missing floor tiles and persistent urine odors in several rooms. Despite daily rounds and a reporting system, these deficiencies were not documented or addressed, indicating a breakdown in communication and maintenance processes.
The facility failed to provide eight consecutive hours of RN coverage on four days within a 104-day period. Interviews revealed the absence of a staffing policy and RN staffing waiver. Staff shortages led to reliance on staffing agencies, which were not always successful. The DON and Administrator acknowledged the difficulty in hiring RNs despite efforts like sign-on bonuses.
A medication storage refrigerator on A Hall was found unplugged, leading to an internal temperature of 62°F, outside the acceptable range. The incident occurred during a defrosting process not properly communicated between housekeeping and nursing staff. As a result, certain medications were discarded and reordered.
A facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program when an LPN did not properly dispose of used syringes after administering insulin to a resident with severe cognitive impairment and multiple health conditions. The LPN placed the syringes on the resident's bed without covering the needles, contrary to the facility's policy. Despite receiving training, the LPN admitted to forgetting to engage the safety needle due to nervousness.
Sanitation and Equipment Maintenance Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to professional standards for sanitation practices and equipment maintenance, leading to potential cross-contamination risks. During an observation on June 10, 2024, an ice scoop was found stored uncovered by an ice machine in the kitchen, which is used to provide ice to all residents. This practice is contrary to the 2017 United States Food and Drug Administration Food Code, which requires that ice scoops be stored in a covered container when not in use. The Dietary Director was unaware of this requirement and acknowledged the oversight. On June 11, 2024, during the lunch meal service, a dietary aide was observed towel drying plate covers instead of allowing them to air dry, as required by professional standards. The dietary aide, who had recently started working in the kitchen, was not informed that towel drying was not permitted. The Dietary Director explained that the staff resorted to towel drying because they were pressed for time. The Administrator expressed an expectation for the dietary staff to maintain clean and sanitary conditions for food preparation.
Facility Fails to Maintain Safe and Homelike Environment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment for residents in four of the 46 rooms. Observations revealed missing floor tiles in one room, which posed a potential fall risk. The Maintenance Director was initially unaware of the issue, despite having a work order dated earlier, and the Assistant Director of Nursing was also not informed until later. This indicates a lack of communication and follow-up on maintenance issues within the facility. In another room and its connecting bathroom, a strong urine odor and sticky flooring were observed. Despite attempts by a Certified Nurse Aide and housekeeping to clean the area, the odor persisted. Interviews with staff revealed that the issue had been ongoing, with the housekeeper acknowledging the need for tile replacement to resolve the problem. The Housekeeping Supervisor confirmed multiple unsuccessful attempts to eliminate the odor, highlighting a persistent environmental concern that had not been effectively addressed. The Director of Nursing and the Administrator were not aware of these issues until the survey, despite daily rounds and a system in place for reporting such concerns. The Guardian Angel rounds, intended to identify and address environmental issues, failed to document these deficiencies. This lack of awareness and documentation suggests a breakdown in the facility's processes for maintaining a homelike environment, as expected by the facility's policies and job descriptions.
Failure to Maintain Required RN Coverage
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide eight consecutive hours of Registered Nurse (RN) coverage on four specific days within a 104-day period. Interviews and record reviews revealed that the facility did not have an RN scheduled or working on these days, and there was no RN staffing waiver in place. The facility's Administrator acknowledged the lack of a staffing policy and the absence of RN coverage on the specified dates. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the absence of RN coverage and stated that the facility relied on staffing agencies to fill schedule gaps, but these efforts were not always successful. Interviews with staff, including a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), and the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), highlighted the challenges faced by the facility in maintaining adequate staffing levels. The CNA reported picking up extra shifts due to staff shortages, while the LPN noted the use of staffing agencies and the reluctance of nurse management to cover shifts. The Scheduler, who was unaware of the RN coverage rule until recently, confirmed the absence of RN coverage on the specified dates. The DON and Administrator both expressed difficulties in hiring RNs for the facility, despite efforts such as sign-on bonuses and advertisements.
Medication Storage Deficiency Due to Unplugged Refrigerator
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the safe storage and handling of medications in one of its medication storage refrigerators located on A Hall. An observation revealed that the refrigerator was unplugged, resulting in an internal temperature of 62 degrees Fahrenheit, which is outside the acceptable range of 36 to 46 degrees Fahrenheit as per the facility's policy. The temperature log indicated that the last recorded temperature was 38 degrees Fahrenheit the previous night. Interviews with staff revealed that the refrigerator was unplugged during a defrosting process, which was not properly communicated or coordinated between housekeeping and nursing staff. The Housekeeping Director stated that housekeeping was responsible for defrosting the refrigerators and that the night shift nurse was supposed to handle the A Hall refrigerator. However, there was a lack of clarity and communication regarding this task. The LPN on duty was unaware of the refrigerator being unplugged and acknowledged that the elevated temperature could pose potential harm to residents. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the responsibility for ensuring proper storage temperatures ultimately lies with the nursing staff. As a result of the incident, certain medications, including Procrit and TB Serum, were deemed unusable and had to be discarded and reordered.
Failure to Properly Dispose of Syringes After Insulin Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program, as evidenced by an incident involving a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) who did not properly dispose of used syringes after administering insulin to a resident. The LPN placed the used syringes on the resident's bed without covering the needles, contrary to the facility's policy on syringe and needle disposal. This policy mandates that used syringes and needles be immediately placed into sharps containers to prevent the spread of infections. The resident involved, identified as R8, was admitted with multiple health conditions, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, which required regular insulin administration. The resident's medical records indicated severe cognitive impairment, with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 7 out of 15. The resident's care plan included specific interventions for managing diabetes, such as administering medications as ordered and monitoring blood sugar levels. The LPN involved in the incident had been employed at the facility for about a month and had received training in infection control and safe sharps handling. Despite this training, the LPN admitted to forgetting to engage the safety needle due to nervousness. Interviews with the Director of Nursing (DON) and the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) confirmed that the LPN had been trained on proper medication administration and sharps disposal, and both expressed expectations for immediate disposal of sharps to prevent infection control issues.
