Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Wellington Parc Of Owensboro during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Loose, unlabeled tablets were found in a medication cart drawer with no identifying information for the resident or medication. The tablets were identified as levothyroxine, escitalopram, and buspirone. Facility policy required medication labels to clearly show the resident name, drug name, strength, and dose, but staff were unsure what to do when the tablets were found, and the DON stated checking for loose pills was standard practice rather than a written policy.
The facility failed to report three separate resident-to-resident altercations to the State Survey Agency and DCBS as required by state law. In one case, a resident was hit on the head after touching another's walker. In another, a resident was hit with a fly swatter during an activity. The third incident involved a resident squeezing another's ankle. Despite documentation and staff awareness, these incidents were not reported due to a misunderstanding of reporting requirements, especially concerning residents with dementia.
Loose Unlabeled Tablets Found in Medication Cart
Penalty
Summary
Drugs and biologicals used in the facility were not stored and labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles. During observation of Medication Cart #30, three loose tablets were found in the third drawer on the left with no identifying information showing who they belonged to or what they were. The tablets were identified by pill identifier as Levothyroxine Sodium 125 mcg, Escitalopram Oxalate 5 mg, and Buspirone Hydrochloride 5 mg. The issue affected one of two medication carts observed out of three carts in the facility. Facility policy titled "Labeling of Medication" stated that medication is to be labeled to facilitate safe administration and that labeling must clearly indicate the resident full name, brand and/or generic name, strength, and prescribed dose. CNA 3 stated she checks the medication cart at the end of her shift and was unsure what the facility policy directed or what to do after loose tablets were found. The ADON stated medication technicians keep the carts clean and in order and that she was unsure what the policy is. The DON stated that after each medication pass the cart should be wiped down, trash thrown away, and loose pills checked for, but also stated this was standard practice and not written in a policy.
Failure to Report Resident-to-Resident Altercations
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to report allegations of abuse to the State Survey Agency and the Department for Community Based Services (DCBS) as required by state law. This deficiency involved three residents who were involved in separate incidents of resident-to-resident altercations. The facility's policy mandates immediate reporting of any alleged abuse, neglect, or exploitation to the Administrator, who is then responsible for notifying the appropriate authorities. However, in these cases, the incidents were not reported as required. In the first incident, a resident was hit on the head by another resident after touching the latter's walker. Despite the altercation being witnessed by staff and documented in progress notes, the incident was not reported to the necessary authorities. In the second incident, a resident was hit multiple times on the arm with a fly swatter by another resident during an activity. Although the staff separated the residents and notified the physician and Power of Attorney, the incident was not reported to the State Survey Agency or DCBS. The third incident involved a resident entering another resident's room uninvited and squeezing the resident's ankle. The staff documented the incident and placed the involved resident on 15-minute checks, but again, the incident was not reported to the appropriate authorities. Interviews with facility staff, including the Director of Nursing and the Administrator, revealed a misunderstanding of the reporting requirements, particularly in cases involving residents with dementia, which contributed to the failure to report these incidents as abuse.
