Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Mccormick Post Acute during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with bilateral lower extremity amputations and a history of falls was assisted by staff, including an LPN and several CNAs, into a boat using a Hoyer lift and secured with a sheet due to the absence of a seatbelt, following approval from the Operations Manager. The resident was transported on a highway and later experienced a boating incident where the vessel began to sink, requiring EMS intervention. The staff's actions did not follow safe transfer or supervision protocols, resulting in a deficiency related to accident hazards and supervision.
A resident with a complex medical history, including homelessness, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, respiratory failure, COPD exacerbation, and diabetes, was discharged to a motel 50 minutes away from the facility. The resident was discharged without essential medications such as insulin, antipsychotics, and respiratory medications, and did not acknowledge wound care instructions. The discharge was based on the resident's decision, despite concerns from the former Medical Director about funding and the appropriateness of the discharge location. The resident experienced breathing difficulties during transport, and there was a lack of follow-up and continuity of care post-discharge. The facility's policies on discharge planning and physician approval were not effectively implemented, leading to inadequate coordination and communication among staff and the medical team.
The facility failed to ensure accurate PASARR Level I screenings for two residents, missing critical diagnoses such as schizophrenia and major depressive disorder. The Social Services Director and Director of Nursing acknowledged the inaccuracies and the need for process improvements.
The facility failed to ensure oxygen was administered per physician orders and to have an order in place for oxygen administration for two residents. One resident received oxygen at 3 LPM instead of the ordered 2 LPM, and another resident had no physician order for continuous oxygen despite being on it.
A resident with COPD and pneumonia was observed with a nebulizer mask improperly stored, leading to potential infection control issues. The resident's care plan did not address their behavior of removing the mask from the bag, and staff were unclear on the proper storage policy.
Failure to Ensure Safe Transfer and Supervision During Resident Outing
Penalty
Summary
A deficiency occurred when facility staff failed to ensure a resident was free from accident hazards and provided with adequate supervision to prevent accidents. The resident, who was a bilateral lower extremity amputee with diagnoses including multiple sclerosis, bipolar disorder, acute kidney failure, and a history of falls, expressed a desire to go boating with a friend. Despite the resident's cognitive intactness, staff assisted him into a boat using a Hoyer lift and secured him to the boat seat with a sheet tied under his arms and behind the seat, as there was no seatbelt available. The resident was unable to remove the sheet himself, and this method of securing was not in accordance with safe transfer or transportation practices. The staff, including LPNs and CNAs, debated the appropriateness of the action and sought authorization from the Operations Manager, who approved the outing over the phone. The staff proceeded to transfer the resident into the boat, which was then driven on a highway to a dock approximately five miles away. During the boating activity, the boat began to fill with water and started sinking, prompting a call for emergency assistance. The resident was ultimately rescued by EMS and returned to the facility without physical injury, but described the experience as traumatic and stated he would not participate in such activities again. Interviews with staff and the resident's friend confirmed that the decision to use a sheet for restraint was made on the spot due to the lack of proper safety equipment, and that the staff's actions were based on the resident's request and the administrator's approval. The facility's policy on safe lifting and movement of residents emphasizes the importance of resident safety, dignity, and appropriate techniques, which were not adhered to in this incident. The event demonstrated a failure to protect the resident from foreseeable accident hazards and to provide adequate supervision and safe transfer methods, as required by federal regulations.
Discharge Planning and Medication Management Deficiency
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a safe and orderly discharge for Resident (R)1, who was discharged to a motel located approximately 50 minutes away from the facility. R1 had a complex medical history including diagnoses such as homelessness, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, respiratory failure, COPD exacerbation, and diabetes. Despite requiring home health services for nursing needs and a detailed post-discharge plan of care, R1 was discharged without essential medications, including insulin, antipsychotics, and respiratory medications. The discharge plan also included wound care instructions that were not acknowledged by R1, raising concerns about continuity of care and patient safety. During interviews, it was revealed that R1 expressed dissatisfaction with the facility and was discharged to a motel without proper arrangements for his medical needs. The Director of Nursing mentioned that R1 was discharged based on his own decision, despite concerns raised by the former Medical Director regarding funding issues and the appropriateness of the discharge location. The transport nurse reported that R1 complained of breathing difficulties during transport to the motel, indicating potential health risks that were not adequately addressed prior to discharge. Additionally, the facility's Social Services Director highlighted the focus on resident rights and choices in discharge planning, but failed to ensure a safe environment for R1 post-discharge. The deficiency in ensuring a safe discharge for R1 was further highlighted by the unsuccessful attempts to interview R1 and the transport nurse, indicating a lack of follow-up and continuity of care post-discharge. The facility's policies on discharge planning and physician approval were not effectively implemented in R1's case, leading to a situation where essential medications and wound care instructions were not provided to the resident upon discharge. The lack of coordination between the facility staff, inadequate communication with the medical team, and failure to address the resident's complex medical needs contributed to the deficiency in ensuring a safe transfer or discharge for R1.
Failure to Ensure Accurate PASARR Screenings
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) Level I screenings were completed correctly for two residents. Resident 64 was admitted with diagnoses of major depressive disorder and schizophrenia, but the PASARR Level I screening did not indicate any mental illness diagnosis. The Social Services Director (SSD) admitted that she did not verify the accuracy of the PASARR against the resident's diagnoses, which should have included schizophrenia and major depressive disorder. The Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged that PASARRs received from hospitals were not always accurate and that the facility had identified this issue during the survey. Similarly, Resident 65 was admitted with diagnoses of schizophrenia and major depressive disorder, and was taking an antipsychotic medication (Olanzapine). However, the PASARR Level I screening did not list schizophrenia as a diagnosis, only noting a general mental health disorder. The SSD admitted to missing the schizophrenia diagnosis and the use of antipsychotic medication in the PASARR. The DON confirmed that the PASARRs needed to be reviewed for accuracy and that the facility's process would need to be changed to catch such mistakes upon admission.
Failure to Administer Oxygen Per Physician Orders
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure oxygen was administered per physician orders and to have an order in place for oxygen administration for two residents. Resident 23, who was admitted with acute respiratory distress, was observed wearing a nasal cannula with the oxygen setting at 3 liters per minute (LPM) on multiple occasions, despite the physician's order and care plan specifying 2 LPM. The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) signed off on the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for 2 LPM without verifying the actual setting, which was confirmed to be incorrect during an interview with the LPN. Resident 103, admitted with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia, was observed wearing a nasal cannula with the oxygen setting at 2.5 LPM. However, there was no physician order for continuous oxygen in the resident's records. The LPN admitted there was no current order for oxygen and was unsure why it was missing. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that staff should check the oxygen settings before signing off on the Medication Administration Record (MAR) and that an order for oxygen should have been in place for Resident 103.
Improper Storage of Nebulizer Masks
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper storage of nebulizer masks for a resident diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia. The resident, who had moderate cognitive impairment, was observed on two separate occasions with the nebulizer mask not placed inside a bag. Instead, the mask was found lying underneath the bed and on top of the dresser, with the tubing hanging inside the trash can. This improper storage was noted despite the resident's care plan indicating a risk for respiratory complications due to COPD and the need for BIPAP as ordered. During an interview, an LPN acknowledged the nebulizer mask was left uncovered and exposed, and admitted uncertainty about the facility's policy on nebulizer mask storage. The Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that the resident had a history of removing the nebulizer mask from the bag but was not care planned for this behavior. The DON stated that staff were expected to store nebulizer masks in a plastic bag when not in use to prevent potential contamination and infection control concerns.
