Health deficiencies cited at Valley Care And Rehab Llc during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A dietary manager was observed repeatedly touching meal choice slips and then handling bread slices with the same gloved hands during meal service, without changing gloves or using utensils as required. This practice did not follow facility policy and had the potential to affect all residents served bread.
A nursing assistant at a long-term care facility took a photo of a resident covered in feces and posted it on social media, violating the resident's right to privacy and dignity. The resident, who had cognitive impairments and required assistance with daily activities, was not aware of the incident. The nursing assistant had previously been warned about inappropriate use of her cell phone and social media at work. The facility did not report the incident to the State Agency, considering it a result of poor judgment rather than a willful act.
A nursing assistant at an LTC facility took a photo of a resident's hand with stool and a leaking colostomy bag, posting it on social media with an inappropriate caption. Despite previous warnings, the assistant violated the facility's policy on electronic device use. The incident was not reported to the State Agency within the required timeframe, highlighting a failure to address potential mental abuse facilitated through technology.
Unsanitary Food Handling During Meal Service
Penalty
Summary
During a meal service, the dietary manager (DM) was observed handling food items in a manner that did not meet sanitary standards. After washing hands and donning gloves, the DM removed covers from food items and began preparing plates, using utensils for some items. However, the DM repeatedly touched meal choice slips with gloved hands and then handled bread slices directly, buttering them and placing them on plates without changing gloves between tasks. The meal choice slips had been filled out by residents, nursing assistants, or activity staff the previous day, and were considered dirty. The DM continued to alternate between touching the slips and handling bread, as well as operating the toaster, without consistently changing gloves or using utensils as required by facility policy. The DM later confirmed in an interview that the usual process was to avoid touching food with hands and to use utensils, and acknowledged that gloves should be changed after touching potentially contaminated items like meal choice slips. The facility's policy on food procurement and serving specifies that gloved hands are a food contact surface that can become contaminated, and that failure to change gloves and wash hands between tasks can contribute to cross-contamination. This practice had the potential to affect all residents who were served bread during the meal.
Nursing Assistant Posts Inappropriate Photo of Resident on Social Media
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect a resident from mental abuse when a nursing assistant (NA-A) took a photograph of the resident covered in feces and posted it on social media. The incident involved a resident with moderately impaired cognition, who required assistance with daily living activities due to medical conditions including a colostomy and urinary catheter. The photograph, which was taken without the resident's consent, showed the resident's hand and leg covered in stool, along with the colostomy bag and catheter tubing, and was posted with a demeaning caption. NA-A had previously been warned about inappropriate use of her cell phone and social media at work. Despite acknowledging the facility's social media policy, which prohibits sharing any resident-related images without consent, NA-A posted the image to her private social media account. The post was visible to at least 15 people, including coworkers, and was removed after an hour. NA-A admitted to taking the photo and posting it due to emotional distress, but did not consider the potential for the resident to be identified or the impact on the resident's dignity. The facility's Director of Nursing (DON) and administrator were informed of the incident by external sources, including a police officer. Although the resident was not aware of the incident due to cognitive impairment, the family expressed that the resident would have been embarrassed and humiliated if aware. The facility determined that the incident was a result of poor judgment rather than a willful act to harm the resident, and did not report it to the State Agency, as they believed it did not meet the criteria for a reportable event.
Failure to Report Alleged Abuse via Social Media
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to immediately report an allegation of abuse to the State Agency within the required two-hour timeframe. The incident involved a Nursing Assistant (NA-A) who took a photograph of a resident's hand with liquid stool on it, along with a catheter bag and a leaking colostomy bag, and posted it on a private social media account. The caption on the photo was deemed inappropriate and potentially humiliating. Despite previous warnings and education on the facility's social media policy, NA-A posted the image, which was later reported to the facility by the police and a citizen. The resident involved had moderately impaired cognition and required assistance with daily living activities, including the management of a urinary catheter and colostomy. The resident's care plan indicated a need for substantial assistance with personal hygiene and toileting. The photograph taken by NA-A did not include the resident's face, but the context and details could potentially allow for identification by those familiar with the resident's condition and care needs. Interviews with staff and the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed that the facility had a policy prohibiting the use of personal electronic devices on the floor, which NA-A violated. Despite the lack of explicit identifiers in the photograph, the act was considered a breach of privacy and dignity, as it was not necessary for care and was not consented to by the resident. The facility's failure to report the incident promptly to the State Agency was a significant oversight, as it involved potential mental abuse facilitated through technology.
