Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Brookridge Retirement Community during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident admitted with a PICC line for IV antibiotics did not have the required weekly dressing change performed as ordered. Nursing staff failed to change the original hospital dressing, and documentation was incorrectly completed, resulting in the dressing remaining in place beyond the recommended interval. The resident was at risk for infection, but no signs of infection were observed.
The facility failed to ensure facial hair was covered during food preparation, with dietary staff observed with exposed facial hair while cleaning and preparing meals. The Executive Chef and Kitchen Manager acknowledged the requirement and provided chin guards to the staff.
The facility failed to ensure proper containment of waste in the trash compactor, as observed on two separate occasions. Multiple large white bags of trash and a live opossum were found in the opened chute area. The Executive Chef stated that the trash compactor was emptied twice a month and that he routinely checked it twice daily. The dietary department used black trash bags, while the white/clear bags were used by the housekeeping department.
Missed Weekly PICC Line Dressing Change for Resident Receiving IV Antibiotics
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when the facility failed to change the dressing for a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) according to the physician's order for a resident receiving intravenous antibiotics for endocarditis and sepsis. The resident was admitted from the hospital with a PICC line and a clear dressing dated from the hospital stay. The care plan identified the resident as being at risk for infection related to the intravenous access, and an order was entered for weekly dressing changes on Sundays using aseptic technique. However, the initial dressing change was not performed as ordered, and the original hospital dressing remained in place beyond the recommended interval. Nursing documentation indicated that the dressing change was signed off as completed, but the nurse later admitted this was done in error due to a busy shift and issues with the electronic medical record. Multiple observations confirmed that the dressing had not been changed since the resident's admission, and interviews with the resident, nurse, administrator, and physician all corroborated that the required weekly dressing change was missed. The resident did not exhibit signs or symptoms of infection at the time of observation.
Failure to Cover Facial Hair During Food Preparation
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure facial hair was covered during food preparation, which had the potential for cross-contamination of food served to residents. During an initial tour of the kitchen, dietary staff were observed cleaning after breakfast and preparing lunch with exposed facial hair ranging from approximately 1/2 inch to 3 inches in length. Later, during the meal tray line service, seven dietary staff members, including the cook, Executive Chef, and Kitchen Manager, were observed with uncovered facial hair while performing various food service tasks. The Executive Chef and Kitchen Manager acknowledged the requirement for male dietary staff to cover all hair in food preparation areas and provided chin guards to the staff.
Improper Waste Containment in Trash Compactor
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper containment of waste in the trash compactor, as observed on two separate occasions. On 5/6/24, during an inspection of the trash compactor, multiple large white bags of trash and a live opossum were found in the opened chute area. The Executive Chef immediately notified the Maintenance Director to remove the opossum. A follow-up observation on 5/9/24 revealed multiple large bags of trash still present in the opened chute area. The Executive Chef stated that the trash compactor was emptied twice a month and that he routinely checked it twice daily. He also noted that the dietary department used black trash bags, while the white/clear bags were used by the housekeeping department.
