Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Groveton Nursing Home during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A medication room refrigerator contained an opened TB vial without an open date and an insulin lispro KwikPen for a resident without a current order. Nurses were responsible for daily refrigerator checks, but the items were still present during observation. The ADON, DON, and Administrator stated opened TB and insulin should be dated and removed when expired.
A resident’s arbitration agreement was missing a required provision giving the resident or representative the right to rescind within 30 calendar days of signing. The Administrator said she was responsible for the agreements, was not aware of the requirements, and stated the form came from corporate office; the facility also had no policy regarding arbitration agreements.
A resident who was incontinent and dependent on staff for toileting had a door sign for EBP requiring gloves and a gown. During incontinent care, two CNAs did not perform hand hygiene before care, did not use the required PPE, used the same soiled gloves for clean tasks, and left the room without hand hygiene. One CNA said she did not see the sign and the other said there was no PPE cart outside the door; an LVN stated the PPE had been removed but the sign remained.
A facility failed to implement proper infection control measures for a resident with ESBL resistance and a urinary tract infection. The resident required enhanced barrier precautions, but these were not in place, as evidenced by the absence of signage and PPE. A CNA left a used brief on the floor, and staff were unaware of the need for enhanced precautions. Observations showed that CNAs did not use gowns during care, highlighting a lack of communication and adherence to infection control policies.
Medication Refrigerator Storage and Dating Deficiency
Penalty
Summary
Drugs and biologicals used in the facility were not stored in accordance with accepted professional principles in the medication room refrigerator. During observation on 9/8/2025 at 10:15 AM, a vial of Aplisol (TB) 5 units/1 mL was found in the refrigerator with a pharmacy date of 7/25/2025, but it did not have a cap on top and did not have an open date noted on the vial. An insulin lispro KwikPen for Resident #16 was also in the refrigerator with a date of 7/14/2025 and an expiration date of December 2026, and the label indicated directions were PRN. Record review showed Resident #16 was admitted with diagnoses including encephalopathy, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. Her active physician orders dated 9/9/2025 did not include an order for the insulin lispro KwikPen. Her quarterly MDS indicated moderate impairment in thinking with a BIMS score of 9 and that she received insulin injections during the look-back period. Her care plan addressed diabetes and included administering medications as ordered and monitoring for side effects and effectiveness. During interviews, MA D stated nurses were responsible for checking medications stored in the refrigerator. LVN C stated nurses were responsible for daily refrigerator checks, including temperatures and expired medications, and said the TB vial had been used and should be discarded because it lacked an open date. She also said the insulin for Resident #16 should be discarded and was only good for 30 days. The ADON, DON, and Administrator each stated medications such as insulin and TB should have open dates and be removed when expired, and the DON said she planned to in-service nursing staff on medication storage with vaccines and insulins.
Arbitration Agreement Missing Required Rescission Right
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that the arbitration agreement contained all required elements for 1 of 1 arbitration agreements reviewed. Record review of an arbitration agreement dated November 2024 showed that it did not grant the resident or the resident’s representative the right to rescind the agreement within 30 calendar days of signing. During an interview, the Administrator stated she was responsible for the arbitration agreements, had not had anyone enter into a binding agreement, and was not aware of the requirements for the arbitration agreement. She also stated the agreement was supplied by corporate office and that the facility did not have a policy regarding arbitration agreements.
Failure to Follow Hand Hygiene and EBP During Incontinent Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to establish and maintain an infection prevention and control program for Resident #14 and two staff members during incontinent care. Resident #14 was an [AGE]-year-old female admitted with diabetes, had a BIMS of 15 indicating intact cognition, was always incontinent, and was dependent on staff for toileting. Her care plan identified an ADL self-care performance deficit and required staff times two for toileting assistance. On 09/08/25 at 9:50 AM, a sign on her door indicated enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) requiring gloves and a gown for care. During an observation on 09/08/25 at 2:07 PM, CNA A and NA B provided incontinent care to Resident #14 without performing hand hygiene before donning gloves, without using the PPE indicated for EBP, and without performing hand hygiene before leaving the room. CNA A cleaned the resident, removed the soiled brief, applied a clean brief using the same soiled gloves, and repositioned the linen and bed while still wearing those gloves. NA B assisted with turning the resident and care of the buttocks and peri area. In interviews, CNA A stated she did not see the sign and there was no cart by the door, while NA B stated she saw the sign but there was no PPE cart outside the door, so she proceeded without asking. LVN C stated the resident was no longer on EBP and the PPE had been removed but the sign remained. The DON and Administrator stated staff were trained on infection control, hand hygiene, and EBP, and that staff were expected to follow infection control protocols.
Inadequate Infection Control Measures for Resident with ESBL
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to establish and maintain an effective infection prevention and control program, which resulted in a deficiency related to the care of a resident with a history of Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase (ESBL) resistance and urinary tract infection. The resident, who had severe cognitive impairment and was always incontinent of bowel and bladder, required enhanced barrier precautions due to her condition. However, the facility did not implement these precautions, as evidenced by the absence of signage and personal protective equipment (PPE) in the resident's room, and the resident was not listed as being on enhanced barrier precautions. On one occasion, a CNA left a trash bag containing a used brief on the floor of the resident's room, which was against infection control protocols. The CNA admitted to being distracted and unaware that the resident required enhanced barrier precautions at the time. During an observation, two CNAs provided incontinent care to the resident without donning the necessary gowns, although they did use gloves and followed hand hygiene practices. The lack of proper signage and PPE in the resident's room contributed to the oversight in implementing the required precautions. Interviews with staff revealed that there was a lack of communication and awareness regarding which residents required enhanced barrier precautions. The Director of Nursing (DON) and other staff acknowledged the oversight and indicated that the resident should have been on enhanced barrier precautions due to her medical history. The facility's policies on enhanced barrier precautions and perineal care were not adequately followed, leading to the potential risk of infection transmission among residents.
