Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Hoboken University Medical Center Tcu during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A survey found deficiencies in kitchen sanitation and food storage at a facility. Opened food items in the walk-in freezer were unlabeled and unsealed, and trash cans in the food prep area were overflowing. The can opener and cooktop trays were unclean, and the facility's policies on food safety were not effectively implemented.
A medication administration error occurred when an RN failed to administer Metoprolol to a resident as per the physician's order. The RN signed off on the medication as administered, but it was later found in her pocket. The resident had a diagnosis of atrial fibrillation and hyponatremia, and the facility's policy lacked a procedure for reconciling medication omissions.
Deficiencies in Kitchen Sanitation and Food Storage
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain proper kitchen sanitation practices and safe food storage, as observed during a survey. In the walk-in freezer, several opened food items were found unlabeled and unsealed, including flatbread, whipped topping, tater tots, pate pizza, pizza crust, vegetable burgers, pretzels, and beef burgers. The Environmental Services Director/Food Service Director (EVD/FSD) was unable to provide information on when these items were opened or their expiration dates, indicating a lack of adherence to food labeling and storage policies. In the food preparation area, the surveyor noted that trash cans were overflowing with garbage and food debris, and were uncovered near food preparation tables. Additionally, the can opener and its holder were found with visible debris and sediment buildup, which could be scratched off, suggesting inadequate cleaning practices. The catch trays under cooktop units and the glass doors of convection ovens were also observed to have significant residue and were not cleaned properly. The Head Chef (HC) admitted to a lack of staff education regarding cleaning procedures and food storage in the freezer. The facility's policies on food storage and safety, including the Food Safety HACCP program, were reviewed. These policies emphasize the importance of labeling food with expiration dates and maintaining cleanliness to prevent contamination. However, the observations made during the survey indicate that these policies were not being effectively implemented, as evidenced by the unlabeled and improperly stored food items and the unclean kitchen equipment.
Medication Administration Error Due to Omission
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a medication was administered in accordance with the physician's order and professional standards of clinical practice. During a medication pass observation, a Registered Nurse (RN) was observed preparing medications for a resident. The RN reviewed the electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) against the medications in unit dose packaging, which included a physician's order for Metoprolol 50 mg to be given every 12 hours with meals for hypertension. However, the RN missed administering the Metoprolol during the medication pass. The RN had initially taken the resident's blood pressure and noted it on paper, but failed to enter it into the eMAR. After preparing the medications, the RN explained each medication to the resident, who self-administered them. The RN signed off on the administration of all medications, including the Metoprolol, which had not been given. Upon review by the surveyor, it was discovered that the Metoprolol was still in the RN's pocket, indicating it had been omitted from the administration. The resident involved had a diagnosis of atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and hyponatremia, and their cognition was intact as per the Admission Minimum Data Set. The facility's policy required that all medications be recorded on the MAR immediately after administration, but did not include a procedure for reconciling administered medications to capture omissions. The Director of Nursing acknowledged that the RN should have verified everything before signing off on the administration.
