Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at River's Bend Retirement Community during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Expired medications were found in two medication carts and in the PRN drawers for several residents, including saline nasal gel, loperamide, lactulose, and multiple bisacodyl products. Staff said cart checks were done inconsistently, the DON expected weekly checks, and facility policy required expired drugs to be removed and medication expiration dates to be reviewed before administration.
Failure to Post Daily Nurse Staffing Information: The facility failed to keep the daily nurse staffing sheet updated and posted as required. The staffing information in the common area remained dated and unchanged for multiple survey observations, despite the facility policy requiring daily posting. RN and DON interviews confirmed the nightshift was responsible for updating the sheet, but agency staff had been working and the information had not been updated. The Administrator stated the staffing sheet was supposed to be posted daily so staff and families would know who was in the building.

Summary
Drugs and biologicals in the facility were not maintained in accordance with accepted professional principles because expired medications were found in medication carts and in resident-specific PRN drawers. On the Short-Hall medication cart, surveyors observed AYR Saline Nasal Gel for one resident with an expiration date of 03/18/2025, Loperamide capsules for another resident with an expiration date of 09/11/2025, and Lactulose liquid and Bisacodyl EC tablets for a third resident with expiration dates of 08/07/2025 and 04/14/2025. On the Long-Hall medication cart, surveyors observed Bisacodyl EC tablets for three residents with expiration dates of 04/22/2025, 04/30/2025, and 05/19/2025. The report also identified expired medications for six sampled residents total: R5, R8, R17, R18, R30, and R39. Facility staff acknowledged responsibility for checking medication carts for expired medications, but the KMA stated she tried to check them monthly, while the DON stated her expectation was that whoever used the cart would check medications at least weekly. The contract pharmacy AD stated consultant pharmacists came monthly for medication and chart reviews and sometimes checked the carts, but not very often. The Administrator stated staff were expected to follow facility policy and remove expired medications from the medication cart. Facility policies reviewed stated expired, discontinued, or deteriorated drugs were not to be used and should be returned to the pharmacy or destroyed, and that medication expiration dates should be reviewed before administration.
Failure to Post Daily Nurse Staffing Information
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to post daily nurse staffing information as required for 3 of the 3 State Survey Agency survey dates. The facility policy titled, General Nurse Staffing, initiated 08/29/2022, stated staffing numbers were to be posted and visible to staff and visitors daily. However, observation on 09/17/2025 at 4:45 PM showed the daily nurse staffing information sheet in the common area corkboard was dated 09/13/2025 and had not been updated. A second observation on 09/18/2025 at 12:50 PM showed the same staffing sheet still dated 09/13/2025 with the same information, confirming it remained unchanged. During interview, RN 2 stated the common area corkboard was the only known place where daily staffing would be posted and said the nightshift nurse was supposed to update the staffing sheets, although contract agency staff had worked the past couple of nights. The DON stated the daily staffing sheets were posted in the commons area by the nurse's desk and that midnight nurses were responsible for keeping them updated each day, but agency nurses had been working the past few nights and that was why the information had not been updated since 09/13/2025. The DON later stated her expectation was for the daily staffing sheets to be posted daily with correct information, and the Administrator stated the sheets were to be done daily and posted so staff and families would know who was in the building, adding that a nightshift nurse had been responsible but had dropped the ball and the responsibility fell through the cracks.
