Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Buena Vida Rehab And Nursing Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident experienced persistent diarrhea and significant weight loss while receiving tube feedings. The facility failed to provide adequate medical follow-up or increased weight monitoring, despite multiple formula changes and ongoing gastrointestinal distress.
The facility failed to report a resident's dislocated right shoulder of unknown origin within the required 2-hour timeframe. The resident, who was severely cognitively impaired, was found in pain and later transferred to the hospital. Both the DON and Administrator were unaware of the incident and reporting requirements.
Failure to Prevent Complications of Enteral Feeding
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident who is fed by enteral means receives the appropriate care and services to prevent complications of enteral feeding. Resident #1 experienced persistent diarrhea from March 2023 to October 2023 while receiving tube feedings and suffered a significant weight loss of over 20 percent. Despite these issues, there was no documented evidence that additional medical follow-up was attempted when the facility was unable to identify a cause for the persistent diarrhea or that increased weight monitoring was implemented when Resident #1 experienced significant weight loss. Resident #1 was admitted with multiple diagnoses, including cerebral infarction, aphasia, dysphagia, and hemiplegia, and had a feeding tube. The resident's weight was recorded as 138 pounds upon admission, but subsequent weights showed a significant decline, reaching as low as 100 pounds. The facility's documentation revealed numerous bouts of loose stool over several months, yet there was no evidence of a referral for additional evaluation or increased monitoring of the resident's weight. Interviews with the medical doctor and review of medical progress notes indicated that the resident's tube feeding formula was changed multiple times due to gastrointestinal distress and a national shortage of tube feeding formulas. Despite these changes, the resident continued to experience diarrhea and weight loss. The medical doctor acknowledged that the resident's condition was complicated by multiple comorbidities and a non-healing surgical wound, which also contributed to the weight loss. However, the facility did not take adequate steps to address the persistent diarrhea and significant weight loss effectively.
Failure to Timely Report Injury of Unknown Origin
Penalty
Summary
The facility did not ensure that all alleged violations involving injuries of unknown source were reported immediately to the New York State Department of Health, as required. Specifically, the facility failed to report a resident's dislocated right shoulder of unknown origin within 2 hours of the occurrence. The incident involved a resident with diagnoses of osteoarthritis, dementia, and hypertension, who was severely cognitively impaired and required assistance from two people for activities of daily living. The resident was found screaming in pain by a Certified Nursing Assistant, and a subsequent medical examination confirmed a right shoulder dislocation, leading to the resident's transfer to the hospital. The facility's policy mandates reporting any suspected abuse, neglect, mistreatment, or misappropriation of property to the New York State Department of Health. However, the facility reported the injury more than 2 hours after the occurrence, as documented in the Aspen Complaint Tracking System. Interviews with the Director of Nursing and the Administrator revealed that both were unaware of the incident and the reporting requirements, indicating a lapse in compliance with the mandated reporting timeframe.
