Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Hermitage Health Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with multiple diagnoses, including atrial flutter and dementia, was incorrectly coded on the MDS assessment as having received antiplatelet medication during the 7-day look-back period, despite the medication being discontinued and not administered during that time. The error was confirmed by the MDS Coordinator and DON through review of the MAR and staff interviews.
A resident's medical record inaccurately documented the presence of both upper and lower dentures, when in fact the resident only had an upper denture and some natural lower teeth. This discrepancy was confirmed through observation, interviews with the resident's daughter, and facility staff, revealing that the lower denture had been discarded prior to admission and not replaced.
Inaccurate MDS Assessment for Antiplatelet Medication Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to accurately complete a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for one resident in relation to unnecessary medications. According to the report, the MDS assessment indicated that the resident received antiplatelet medication during the 7-day look-back period. However, a review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) showed that the resident's order for Aspirin, an antiplatelet, was discontinued and the last dose was administered prior to the resident's hospitalization. The resident did not receive any antiplatelet medication during the 7-day look-back period covered by the MDS assessment. Interviews with the MDS Coordinator and the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that the MDS assessment was incorrectly coded, as the resident had not received antiplatelet medication during the specified period. The DON stated that it was her expectation for MDS assessments to be accurate, and acknowledged that the assessment in question was not accurate regarding the administration of antiplatelet medications. The resident involved had a medical history including atrial flutter, anxiety, dementia, hypertension, and required assistance with personal care.
Inaccurate Medical Record Documentation of Dentures
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the accuracy of the medical record for one resident. The resident was admitted with multiple diagnoses, including congestive heart failure, anxiety, dementia, and prediabetes. Documentation in the medical record, including the Long Term Care Evaluation, indicated that the resident had both upper and lower dentures. However, observation and interviews revealed that the resident only had an upper denture and some natural teeth on the bottom, with missing lower teeth. The resident's daughter confirmed that the bottom denture had been discarded prior to admission and was not replaced, which was also corroborated by the DON and Administrator. Despite these facts, the medical record inaccurately documented the presence of both upper and lower dentures. The DON confirmed that the assessment stating the resident had both dentures was not accurate. The expectation was that nursing assessments should be complete and accurate, but this was not met in this instance, resulting in an inaccurate medical record for the resident.
