Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at St Andre Health Care Facility during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Surveyors found that an oxygen concentrator and tubing were left at the bedside of a resident who no longer required oxygen, and that two residents receiving oxygen therapy had their tubing improperly stored, with a nasal cannula found on the floor. Staff confirmed that tubing should be stored in a sanitary manner, but this was not done, resulting in unsanitary conditions.
Surveyors identified multiple sanitation deficiencies in the kitchen, including undated and unlabeled food items, stained and dusty ceiling tiles, rusted ceiling supports, cobwebs with insects, and significant dust and debris on equipment and surfaces. These issues were confirmed by the Food Service Director.
Surveyors identified widespread environmental deficiencies, including stained ceiling tiles, damaged walls and doors, missing or broken fixtures, and slow-to-heat water across all three units. These issues were confirmed during a facility tour with the Administrator.
A dumpster was observed to be left uncovered on one of the survey days, and this was confirmed by the Food Service Director, indicating a failure to properly dispose of garbage and refuse to prevent pest infestation.
Failure to Maintain Sanitary Respiratory Care Equipment
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that an oxygen concentrator remained at the bedside of a resident who reported not having used oxygen for a month, with the tubing still attached to the machine. The resident confirmed that they no longer required oxygen, yet the equipment was left in their room. This indicates a failure to remove unnecessary respiratory equipment in a timely manner, which is part of maintaining a sanitary environment. Additionally, in another room, surveyors found that the oxygen tubing for two residents was not stored in a sanitary manner. The tubing was draped over the concentrator, and the nasal cannula was found directly on the floor. Both residents had active or recent orders for oxygen therapy, but the tubing was not properly stored when not in use. Staff interviews confirmed that the tubing should have been coiled and stored in a bag, but this was not done, resulting in unsanitary conditions related to respiratory care.
Failure to Maintain Kitchen Sanitation and Food Storage Standards
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain the kitchen in a clean and sanitary condition as required. During multiple days of survey, surveyors observed several deficiencies including an open bag of cookie dough in the reach-in refrigerator that was neither labeled nor dated, stained ceiling tiles, rust-covered ceiling support struts, and cobwebs containing insects hanging from the ceiling. There was also a significant accumulation of dust and debris on ceiling tiles, particularly near the dish machine, which became airborne when disturbed. Additional observations included dust strings hanging from the ceiling, large cobwebs in various areas, a dust-covered glove holder positioned over clean bowls, and a large floor mixer covered with a plastic bag that, when removed, revealed dried debris around the machine. Dust was also noted on the exterior of the ice machine. These findings were confirmed by the Food Service Director during the survey. No information about residents or their medical conditions was included in the report.
Environmental Deficiencies Across All Facility Units
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed and confirmed multiple deficiencies related to the maintenance of a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment across all three units of the facility. On the third floor, issues included missing corner protectors, stained ceiling tiles in several rooms, gouged and damaged walls, holes in bathroom walls, and broken baseboards with missing tiles in the bathing suite. The second floor had holes in the walls behind the coffee bar in the common area, stained ceiling tiles in bathrooms, bathroom doors with holes, slow-to-heat water in a resident room, and multiple holes in a bathroom wall. On the first floor, deficiencies included stained ceiling tiles in the sun room, a damaged counter under a sink, bathroom doors and walls with holes, and a stained ceiling tile above a toilet. These findings were based on direct observation and confirmation during a facility tour with the Administrator. No specific residents or staff were identified as being directly involved in the observed deficiencies, and no additional medical history or resident conditions were noted in relation to the findings.
Improper Disposal of Garbage and Refuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper disposal of garbage and refuse to prevent pest infestation. On one of the three survey days, an observation was made at 9:50 a.m. that one of two dumpsters was left uncovered. This observation was confirmed by the Food Service Director at the time.
