Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Seaside Hhc @ Atlantic Shore during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Survey Results Not Readily Available to Residents: Four alert and oriented residents stated they did not know where the prior survey results were located or that they could view them. A bulletin board notice directed people to inquire to see a copy, while the survey results were kept in a blue binder at the reception desk and were partially obscured by a letter organizer and resident comment cards. The Administrator and SW stated residents had been told the location on admission, but residents still reported they were unaware of it.
Care Plan Not Reviewed and Revised for CHF Monitoring: A resident with pneumonia, HF, and dementia had a BIMS score of 7/15, indicating severely impaired decision-making. The resident’s care plan included CHF monitoring and daily weight interventions, but the POS later showed a different weight order. The DON stated the order and care plan were different and needed provider clarification, showing the care plan had not been reviewed and revised to match the current order.
A resident with dementia and severely impaired decision-making abilities had documented preferences for bedtime, family involvement, secure storage, and clothing choices, but staff failed to consistently implement customary routines and preferences in the care plan. During ADL care, the resident displayed combative and sexually inappropriate behaviors toward staff and his spouse, and nursing notes showed redirection was ineffective; the DON stated redirection was the only documented intervention.
Expired COVID-19 test kits were found stored in the medication room, and three open bottles of lorazepam liquid were found in the medication refrigerator without dates showing when they were opened. The box instructions required discard 90 days after opening, while facility policy stated opened multi-dose vials must be dated and discarded within 28 days unless the manufacturer specifies otherwise. An LPN and the DON stated the nurse should date the bottle when opened.
The facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program in one nursing unit. A lab tech was observed leaving a resident room and walking in the hallway and to the nurse’s station while still wearing a disposable gown, despite staff stating PPE must be removed before leaving the room and the facility policy requiring PPE removal at the doorway or in an anteroom. The facility also did not have complete infection control surveillance/tracking logs, even though its policy required surveillance, data analysis, and antibiotic stewardship documentation.
Failure to Monitor Antibiotic Use: The facility did not maintain an effective antibiotic stewardship program or consistently complete required Infection Screening Evaluations and Antibiotic Time-Outs. An RN and an LPN were unaware of the program, the IP stated there were gaps in surveillance and tracking after the prior IP left, and the DON could not provide evidence that current residents with antibiotic orders had completed screening or time-out documentation. Review of the PIP showed incomplete or missing documentation of ongoing antibiotic need, indication, and duration.
Survey Results Not Readily Available to Residents
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that previous survey results were posted in a place readily available to residents, families, and visitors. During a group interview with four alert and oriented residents, all four stated they were not aware they could see the results of the previous survey and did not know where the results were located. In the entry hallway across from the receptionist's desk, a bulletin board displayed a notice stating that survey results were located at the reception desk and nurses station and that individuals should inquire to see a copy of the results. A silver three-part letter organizer was positioned in front of a black binder, and papers labeled Resident Comment Cards were placed in the organizer and obscured the words on the front of the binder. The Administrator stated the survey results were available at the receptionist's desk in a blue binder. After being informed of the residents' statements, the Administrator pointed to the sign on the bulletin board. The Social Worker stated she told residents the location of the survey results during admissions and said she would change the wording on the sign and discuss the location at the next Resident Council meeting. During end-of-day debriefing, the Administrator and DON stated residents should know where the survey results were located and not have to ask to see them.
Care Plan Not Reviewed and Revised for CHF Monitoring
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to review and revise the person-centered care plan for one resident. The resident was admitted and later readmitted after an acute care hospital stay, and had diagnoses including pneumonia, heart failure, and dementia. The admission MDS assessment with an ARD of 11/3/25 coded the resident as having completed the BIMS with a score of 7 out of 15, indicating severely impaired cognitive abilities for daily decision-making. The resident’s care plan contained a problem dated 10/27/25 for congestive heart failure with a goal of being free of peripheral edema through 2/3/26 and interventions that included monitoring and documenting signs and symptoms of CHF and daily weights with notification parameters for weight gain. A Physician’s Order Summary showed an order dated 11/21/25 for a weight upon admission and weekly times four, every 7 days. During interview, the DON stated that the order and the care plan were different and that she would speak with the Provider to clarify which was most appropriate for the resident.
Failure to Honor Resident Preferences and Manage Inappropriate Behaviors During ADL Care
Penalty
Summary
Facility staff failed to implement customary routines, interests, preferences, and choices for a resident with dementia who had severely impaired cognitive abilities for daily decision-making, with a BIMS score of 7 out of 15 on the admission MDS. The resident’s preferences documented in the MDS included choosing his own bedtime, having family or a close friend involved in care discussions, having a place to lock his belongings, and choosing what clothes to wear. His person-centered care plan identified impaired cognitive function and/or thought processes related to dementia and included keeping his routine consistent and using consistent caregivers as much as possible to decrease confusion. During ADL care, the resident exhibited inappropriate behaviors toward staff, including touching a staff member’s breast and punching her in the stomach, and later being combative and sexually inappropriate to staff and his spouse. Nursing notes documented that redirection was ineffective during these episodes. The DON stated that the resident had multiple episodes of inappropriate behavior during care and that redirection was the only documented intervention, which had not been effective. The resident was also observed outside with his spouse attempting to get up and frowning, and the spouse stated it was too windy outside.
Expired Test Kits and Undated Open Lorazepam Bottles Found in Medication Storage
Penalty
Summary
Drugs and biologicals used in the facility were not stored in accordance with currently accepted professional principles because expired COVID-19 test kits were found in the medication room and opened lorazepam liquid bottles were found in the medication refrigerator without dates documenting when they were opened. An inspection of the medication room revealed ten [NAME] brand COVID-19 test kits with an expiration date of 4/2025 and one iHealth brand kit with an expiration date of 4/25/25 stored in the cabinets. An inspection of the medication refrigerator also revealed three bottles of lorazepam liquid that were open but not dated upon opening: one dispensed 7/2/25, one dispensed 5/23/25, and one dispensed 6/11/25. The box instructions stated the medication was to be discarded 90 days after opening. During interviews, two LPNs and the DON stated that the nurse should date the bottle when it is opened, while the facility policy on medication labeling and storage stated that opened or accessed multi-dose vials are to be dated and discarded within 28 days unless the manufacturer specifies a shorter or longer date. The Administrator and DON were informed of the concerns at the end of the day, and no further information was provided.
Infection Control Program and Surveillance Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program in one nursing unit, including surveillance and infection control practices to prevent communicable diseases or infections. On 11/24/25, a female lab tech was observed exiting a resident room wearing a white disposable gown, then walking to the nurse’s station, looking at documents on the nurse’s desk, and walking back down the hall while still wearing the gown. The DON stated that staff are to remove gowns and gloves before leaving the room and that she had spoken to the lab tech about removing the gown before leaving the room. The lab tech, an LPN, and a CNA all stated that gowns and gloves are to be put on before entering an isolation room and removed before leaving the room. The facility’s PPE policy stated that, except for respirators, PPE is to be removed at the doorway or in an anteroom. The facility also did not have complete infection control surveillance/tracking logs as required by its policy. The Infection Preventionist stated that surveillance and tracking were in the electronic medical record system, but when asked for the past 3 months of surveillance/tracking logs, she stated they were not complete. The facility’s Infection Prevention and Control Program policy required surveillance, data analysis, and antibiotic stewardship documentation, including tracking of resident antibiotic regimens on a facility-approved form with specific infection and treatment details. The DON was made aware on 11/24/25 that the infection control surveillance/tracking logs were not complete, and no further information was provided.
Failure to Monitor Antibiotic Use
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to establish an effective infection prevention and control program that included an antibiotic stewardship program with antibiotic use protocols and a system to monitor antibiotic use for residents. During interviews, RN-2 stated she was not sure what the facility’s antibiotic stewardship program was and said the Infection Control Nurse handled it, and LPN-1 also stated she did not know what the program was. The Infection Preventionist stated the facility had identified gaps in its IPCP policies on surveillance and tracking and antibiotic stewardship for the required assessment of antibiotic use since the previous Infection Preventionist left a few weeks earlier, and that a Performance Improvement Plan had been written. Review of the Performance Improvement Plan showed the area of concern was that antibiotic stewardship practices were not consistently followed, including completion of the required Infection Screening Evaluation and Antibiotic Time-Out at 48-72 hours after initiation, and that documentation and reassessment of ongoing antibiotic need, indication, and duration were incomplete or missing. The plan called for review of all antibiotic orders daily and completion of Infection Control Screening Evaluation and time-out documentation within 24-48 hours, with audit logs and MAR review as evidence of completion, but the review did not provide evidence that the issue had been corrected for week 1, week 2, or week 3. The DON stated she was surprised the facility had not been consistently assessing antibiotic therapy and could not provide evidence that Infection Screening Evaluations and Antibiotic Time-Outs had been completed for current residents with antibiotic orders. The facility policy required review of all clinical infections treated with antibiotics, review of antibiotic utilization, notification of the provider of review findings, and documentation of all resident antibiotic regimens on the antibiotic surveillance tracking form.
