Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Aberjona Rehabilitation And Nursing Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to comply with food safety standards, as observed by surveyors. Multiple food items in the kitchen were found open and undated, and a box of frozen chicken was stored directly on the floor. Additionally, male dietary staff members with beards were not wearing beard nets during food preparation, contrary to facility policy and FDA guidelines. A staff member's lunch was improperly stored with resident food in the refrigerator.
A facility failed to meet professional standards by not documenting the total daily intake for a resident with a g-tube, as per physician orders. The resident, with dysphagia and esophageal cancer, had specific orders for nutritional intake and water flushes. However, the MAR showed only night shift intake was recorded. Staff interviews revealed the order was entered incorrectly, leading to incomplete documentation.
Deficiencies in Food Storage and Safety Practices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to professional standards for food service safety, as observed during a survey. The surveyor noted multiple instances of improperly stored food items in the kitchen's walk-in refrigerator, dry storage area, and walk-in freezer. These included various open and undated food items such as fish base, lobster base, cheese, milk, orange juice, and fresh spinach, among others. Additionally, a box of frozen chicken was found placed directly on the floor in the walk-in freezer. The facility's policy requires that food be labeled and dated, and stored in a clean, dry location, at least six inches above the floor, which was not followed. Furthermore, the facility did not enforce the use of beard nets for male dietary staff members with beards, as required by both the facility's policy and the 2022 U.S. FDA food code. During the survey, three male dietary staff members were observed without beard nets, two of whom were actively preparing food. The Food Service Director admitted to not requiring beard nets during food preparation. Additionally, an undated glass container with a staff member's lunch was found in the kitchen's walk-in refrigerator, which should not have been stored with resident food and ingredients.
Failure to Document Total Daily Intake for Resident with G-tube
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide services that met professional standards of quality for a resident with a gastrostomy tube (g-tube) due to non-compliance with physician orders. The resident, who was admitted with dysphagia and a malignant neoplasm of the esophagus, had specific physician orders for nutritional intake via the g-tube. These orders included administering Jevity 1.5 calorie/fiber oral liquid and specific water flushes, with a requirement to document the total daily intake every night shift. However, the facility's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for May 2024 showed that the night shift nurses only documented the intake for their shift, rather than the total daily intake as ordered. Interviews with facility staff revealed a lack of adherence to the physician's orders. Nurse #1 acknowledged that the total daily intake should have been documented but was not. Unit Manager #1 indicated that the order was entered incorrectly, leading to the incomplete documentation. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the total intake should reflect the entire day's volume, highlighting a failure in the facility's documentation process and adherence to professional standards of care.
