Health deficiencies cited at Hope Center For Hiv And Nursing Care during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment was forcibly given a haircut against their will in an LTC facility. Despite the resident's refusal and agitation, staff, including an LPN and a home health aide, restrained the resident to complete the haircut, violating the facility's policies on resident rights and abuse prevention.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment was restrained during a haircut in an LTC facility, despite expressing refusal and distress. The facility's policy requires a restraint-free environment unless medically necessary, but no alternatives were attempted, and no medical justification was documented. Staff, including a Social Worker Director and LPN, held the resident to complete the haircut, leading to a deficiency finding.
Resident Rights Violation: Forced Haircut
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to honor a resident's right to a dignified existence and self-determination, as evidenced by an incident involving a forced haircut. On the specified date, a recreational aide reported that a resident refused a haircut and became agitated and combative. Despite the resident's refusal, the Director of Social Work instructed staff, including an LPN and a home health aide, to restrain the resident and proceed with the haircut against the resident's will. This action was in direct violation of the facility's policy on resident rights, which mandates that residents be treated with kindness, respect, and dignity, and be supported in exercising their rights. The resident involved had a history of severe cognitive impairment, as indicated by a low score on the Brief Interview of Mental Status. During the incident, the resident was initially removed from a noisy environment to their room, where the haircut was attempted again. Despite the resident's continued agitation and verbal protests, staff members physically restrained the resident to complete the haircut. The facility's investigation confirmed that the haircut was performed against the resident's will, although no physical harm was reported. Interviews with staff members, including the home health aide, LPN, and the Director of Nursing, revealed that the decision to proceed with the haircut was influenced by the resident's unkempt appearance and an impending visit from the resident's guardian. The staff involved believed they were acting in the resident's best interest, but their actions contravened the facility's policies on abuse and neglect, which prohibit mistreatment and require the prevention and reporting of such incidents. The incident was not reported to the Registered Nursing Supervisor until the following day, indicating a lapse in communication and adherence to protocol.
Resident Restrained During Haircut Without Medical Necessity
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from physical or chemical restraints imposed for purposes of discipline or convenience, which are not required to treat the resident's medical symptoms. This deficiency was identified during an abbreviated survey, where it was found that a resident was physically restrained against their will during a haircut. The facility's policy on the use of restraints, dated December 2022, mandates a restraint-free environment unless restraints are necessary for the safety and well-being of the resident and only after alternatives have been attempted unsuccessfully. However, in this case, there was no documented evidence that restraints were medically necessary or that alternatives were attempted prior to restraining the resident. The incident involved a resident with severe impaired cognition, as indicated by a Brief Interview of Mental Status score of six. The resident was admitted with diagnoses including Antiviral Disease, Major Depressive Disorder, and Dementia. During the haircut, the resident became agitated and combative, leading the Director of Social Work to instruct staff to hold the resident's arms and legs to complete the haircut. Despite the resident's initial consent, they later expressed refusal and distress, which was not adequately addressed by the staff. The facility's documentation lacked physician's orders or justification for the restraint use, and no care plan for restraint was developed for the resident. Interviews with staff members, including a Home Health Aide, Barber, and Recreational Staff, confirmed that the resident was restrained during the haircut. The Social Worker Director and other staff members were involved in holding the resident to prevent them from harming themselves, despite the resident's combative behavior and verbal refusal. The Director of Nursing acknowledged that the resident's hair was cut against their will, and the facility's investigation concluded that the resident was provided a haircut without harm but against their will.
