Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Mccoy Memorial Nursing Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Kitchen Equipment and Surfaces Not Maintained in Cleanable Condition: The facility failed to keep the kitchen cleanable and maintained, as the gas stove had heavy carbon buildup, embedded food debris, grease, and food spatter, and the steam tables had rusted, disintegrated surfaces with exposed heating elements and insulation. Staff stated the stove had only been wiped with a sanitizer rag, the steam tables had been in use for over two years, and additional areas including vents, ceilings, and walls had lint and food spatter.
Unqualified Infection Preventionist Assigned: The facility failed to ensure a qualified IP was designated to oversee the infection prevention and control program for 115 residents. The IP stated she was still in the IP course and had not completed it, while the job description and facility policy required specialized IPC training and relevant qualifications before assuming the role. The IP reported relying on a notebook from the previous IP, the DON, and corporate resources, and the DON and Administrator acknowledged the IP was still working on certification.
Failure to Provide Timely Medicare Non-Coverage Notices: The facility did not ensure two residents received proper written notice of Medicare non-coverage through SNFABN/NOMNC. One resident’s form only documented a voicemail to the RP, with no signature, no clear contact documentation, and no proof the notice was mailed. Another resident did not receive a SNFABN even though Medicare Part A skilled services were ending and therapy continued beyond the family’s stated preference.
Surveyors found that an LPN left a cup containing seven loose pills on a resident's bedside table without confirming ingestion, contrary to facility policy requiring medications to be securely stored and administered under observation. The resident had a history of epilepsy and dementia and was moderately cognitively impaired. The DON stated that nurses are expected to observe medication administration and handle refusals according to protocol.
A resident with Alzheimer's and moderate cognitive impairment fell from a shower chair due to a CNA's failure to engage the wheel locks, resulting in major injuries. The facility's fall prevention policy was not followed, as confirmed by interviews with the CNA and DON.
Kitchen Equipment and Surfaces Not Maintained in Cleanable Condition
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the kitchen was cleaned and equipment was maintained to provide cleanable surfaces in one kitchen serving 113 of 115 residents. During observation with the Dietary Manager, the gas stove, which had been in the facility since the 1980s, had a thick black carbon buildup with a bubbled, disintegrated texture, uneven flaky carbonization, and food debris embedded in one nonfunctioning burner. The outside and sides of the stove, oven, and fryer had greasy buildup and food spatter, and the Dietary Manager stated the stove top had only been wiped with a sanitizer rag and that there was no plan for the stove top at that time. The five-well and four-well steam tables had exposed heating elements, rusted and disintegrated sides and bottoms, exposed insulation, and loose disintegrated metal and rusted debris, creating non-cleanable surfaces. The Kitchen Supervisor stated the steam tables had been in use for over two years, and the Dietary Manager confirmed exposed insulation inside the wells. Additional kitchen sanitation concerns were observed, including vents with excess lint, a ceiling above the steam table and food prep areas with food spatter and lint, and walls behind clean knife storage with food spatter. The Dietary Manager stated the vents had last been cleaned about six months earlier, and the Administrator confirmed a new five-well steam table had been ordered while there was no plan for the four-well steam table.
Unqualified Infection Preventionist Assigned
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a qualified Infection Preventionist (IP) was designated to oversee implementation of the infection prevention and control program for 115 census residents. The facility policy titled, Infection Preventionist, stated the facility would designate a qualified individual as IP and that the IP must have obtained specialized IPC training beyond initial professional training or education prior to assuming the role, with evidence of training through a certificate of completion or equivalent documentation. The job description for Infection Preventionist, signed by the IP, required relevant licensure or certification and education, training, experience, or certification in infection control and prevention, including completed specialized training in infection prevention and control through accredited continuing education. During interviews, the IP stated she was still in the IP course and had not completed it, was in Module 12, and had been in the position since April 2026. She stated she had been using a notebook from the previous IP, the DON as a resource, and two corporate staff resources were available. The DON stated there were two nurse consultants with IP certification and that she was aware of the IP training and education requirements. The Administrator stated the IP was working on her certification and had additional resources.
Failure to Provide Timely Medicare Non-Coverage Notices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely written notification of Medicare non-coverage for two residents reviewed for beneficiary notification. For one resident, the Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice of Non-coverage indicated that skilled services covered by Medicare Part A were expected to end and that the resident would convert to Medicaid, but the signature line only noted that a voicemail was left with the responsible party. The form did not contain the resident’s or authorized representative’s signature, and there was no documentation identifying who was contacted, documenting telephone contact attempts, or showing that the written notice was mailed when contact could not be verified. The resident remained at the facility. For another resident, the Business Office Manager did not provide a SNFABN for Medicare Part A skilled services that were scheduled to end, and the resident later discharged from the facility. During interview, the Business Office Manager stated that a call had been placed to the responsible party for the first resident and a message was left, but no follow-up occurred and no return call was received. The Business Office Manager also stated that the second resident’s family had said on admission they did not want the resident to stay beyond 20 days and believed this was a family-initiated discharge, so a SNFABN was not required, even though the resident stayed past 20 days and received therapy services.
Medications Left Unsecured at Bedside
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that medications were not properly stored and safeguarded in accordance with facility policy and professional standards. During an observation, a disposable cup containing seven loose pills was found on the bedside table of a resident. The facility's policy requires that medications and biologicals be stored safely, securely, and only accessible to licensed nursing or pharmacy personnel. The resident involved had a history of symptomatic epilepsy, epileptic syndromes with simple partial seizures, and unspecified dementia, and was assessed as moderately cognitively impaired with a BIMS score of 10 out of 15. The LPN assigned to the resident acknowledged that she had administered the medication but did not confirm ingestion, mistakenly assuming the resident had taken the pills after putting the cup to her mouth. The LPN admitted this was her first time working with the resident and recognized that medications should not be left at the bedside without ensuring they have been taken. The DON confirmed that nurses are expected to observe residents taking their medications and to discard and notify the physician if a resident refuses medication.
Failure to Engage Wheel Locks on Shower Chair Leads to Resident Fall
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect a resident from accident hazards in their environment, specifically due to the actions of a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). The CNA did not engage the wheel locks on a shower chair, which led to the resident falling and sustaining major injuries. The facility's policy on fall prevention, revised on 09/01/23, mandates that each resident should receive care and services according to their individualized level of risk to minimize the likelihood of falls. However, this policy was not adhered to in this instance. The resident involved was admitted with diagnoses including Alzheimer's, dementia, and osteoarthritis, and had a moderate cognitive impairment as indicated by a BIMS score of 09 out of 15. During the incident, the resident fell from the shower chair, resulting in comminuted fractures of the proximal tibia and fibula. Interviews with the CNA and the Director of Nursing confirmed that the shower chair's wheel locks were not engaged, which is against the facility's standard procedure for using such equipment during activities of daily living (ADL) care.
