Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at O'neill Healthcare North Ridgeville during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with cognitive impairment and multiple medical conditions sustained a significant leg laceration requiring ER treatment after being improperly transferred using a sit-to-stand mechanical lift. Two CNAs were involved in the transfer, and staff interviews revealed uncertainty about the exact cause of the injury, though it was determined to have occurred during the transfer process. The incident was associated with inadequate supervision and improper use of transfer equipment.
The facility failed to address pharmacy recommendations in a timely manner for two residents. One resident, with fluctuating blood sugar levels, did not receive a recommended hemoglobin A1C test despite physician agreement. Another resident, with a history of nicotine dependence, had a delayed implementation of a nicotine patch titration schedule. The DON acknowledged the oversight in both cases, which did not comply with the facility's policy for timely addressing non-urgent recommendations.
Improper Transfer Results in Resident Injury
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when a resident with significant medical conditions, including Parkinson's Disease, dementia, muscle weakness, and a history of brain stem stroke, was improperly transferred using a sit-to-stand mechanical lift. The resident was cognitively impaired and required substantial to maximum assistance for bed-to-chair transfers. During a transfer, the resident complained of leg pain, and staff discovered a bleeding laceration on the resident's leg, which ultimately required emergency room treatment and 14 sutures. Review of the incident revealed that two CNAs were involved in the transfer. One CNA reported that the resident complained of pain after being placed on the bed, and upon inspection, blood was found on the resident's pants. The other CNA could not recall the exact sequence of events but confirmed the use of the sit-to-stand lift and was unsure if the resident's leg had come into contact with the bed frame or another object. Staff interviews and documentation indicated uncertainty about the precise cause of the injury, with some suggesting the injury may have resulted from pressure or contact with equipment during the transfer process. Further investigation by facility leadership and therapy staff found no sharp edges on the bed or lift, but it was determined that the laceration likely occurred during the transfer, possibly due to a crushing injury or scraping against the wheelchair or bed frame. The incident log, witness statements, and staff interviews all confirmed that the injury was associated with the transfer process and that the resident's condition, including edema, may have contributed to the severity of the injury. There was a lack of correlating progress notes documenting the incident that led to the emergency room visit and subsequent treatment.
Failure to Address Pharmacy Recommendations Timely
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely addressing of pharmacy recommendations for two residents, leading to deficiencies in medication management. Resident #73, diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, diabetes mellitus, and generalized anxiety disorder, was receiving Lantus insulin with fluctuating blood sugar levels. A pharmacy recommendation dated 04/29/24 suggested obtaining a hemoglobin A1C laboratory value and considering an increase in Lantus dosage. Although the physician agreed with the recommendation on 05/13/24, the hemoglobin A1C test was not conducted by the time of review on 09/18/24. The Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged the absence of the test results and documentation indicating the physician's intention to perform the test during the next routine laboratory draw. Resident #117, with diagnoses including major depressive disorder, peripheral vascular disease, and a history of nicotine dependence, had a pharmacy recommendation dated 05/30/24 to add a stop date and titration schedule for a nicotine patch. The physician agreed to the recommendation but did not implement the titration order until 09/17/24, unrelated to the pharmacy's suggestion. The DON confirmed the oversight of the pharmacy recommendation and stated that the physician independently decided on the titration. The facility's policy required non-urgent recommendations to be addressed in a timely manner, but this was not adhered to in these cases.
