Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Dove Healthcare - Bloomer during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with severe cognitive impairment, dependence on staff for transfers, and a history of osteoarthritis and fractures experienced an incident during a Hoyer lift transfer that resulted in leg pain and subsequent imaging confirming a tibial fracture and a possible femoral neck fracture. Despite having a policy requiring immediate reporting of alleged abuse or serious bodily injury and submission of investigative findings within five working days, facility leadership did not report the incident to the State Survey Agency, believing there was no immediate impact. The facility completed an internal investigation but failed to submit the required misconduct incident report within the mandated timeframe.
Surveyors found that dietary staff did not consistently use proper hair restraints while preparing food, with one staff member's moustache left uncovered and another with facial hair not wearing a beard cover. Both were actively involved in food preparation, contrary to facility policy requiring all exposed hair to be covered in the kitchen.
Surveyors identified ongoing discrepancies between posted daily nurse staffing information and actual staff schedules, with mismatches in the number and type of staff present on various shifts. The DON confirmed that posted data was generated from software, while actual schedules were based on timecard punches, resulting in inaccurate information being displayed for residents and their representatives.
Failure to Timely Report Suspected Abuse/Neglect Incident Involving Fractures
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that an alleged violation involving potential abuse, neglect, exploitation, or mistreatment was reported immediately to the State Survey Agency and that investigative findings were submitted within five working days, as required by facility policy and regulation. The facility’s policy, revised in October 2025, requires that allegations involving abuse or serious bodily injury be reported not later than two hours after the allegation is made, and that investigative findings be submitted to the Division of Quality Assurance, Office of Caregiver Quality, within five working days of the initial report and the date the entity knew or should have known about the misconduct. For one resident, the facility completed a thorough internal investigation of an incident but did not submit the required misconduct incident report to DQA within five business days of discovery. The resident involved had dementia with severe cognitive impairment (BIMS score 5/15), a history of falls, unilateral post-traumatic left hip osteoarthritis, anxiety, and documented pain related to osteoarthritis and multiple fractures. The resident was dependent on staff for transfers, toileting, and bed mobility, used a wheelchair, and required a mechanical lift for transfers. On 10/26/25, the resident experienced an incident during a Hoyer lift transfer when lifting their arms in the sling caused them to slide and be lowered to the floor; a cradle sling was later added as an intervention. Following the incident, the resident reported leg pain and was observed yelling out in pain, leading to a provider notification, portable x-ray, and subsequent identification of a tibial plateau fracture and possible femoral neck fracture. During a surveyor interview, the Nursing Home Administrator acknowledged that the incident had not been reported to DQA and stated it was not reported because they believed there was no immediate impact and that pain did not occur until hours later, despite recognizing that symptoms can develop later and that the presence of great bodily harm/fracture should have triggered reporting and submission of the final report within five business days.
Failure to Enforce Proper Hair Restraint Use in Food Preparation Areas
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility did not consistently enforce its policy requiring proper hair restraints for dietary staff in the kitchen. Specifically, one staff member was seen wearing a beard cover that did not fully cover their moustache while preparing apple crisp, and another staff member with facial hair was not wearing a beard cover at all while preparing side salads. Both staff members were working in food preparation areas at the time of the observations. The facility's policy states that all exposed hair, including facial hair, must be restrained or covered with a hair net or beard cover while in the kitchen. Interviews with the staff revealed a lack of understanding regarding the requirement to cover moustaches and the length of facial hair that necessitates a beard cover.
Inaccurate Daily Nurse Staffing Postings
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that daily nurse staffing information posted was accurate, as required. Surveyors reviewed staffing schedules and the corresponding daily staff postings over a one-month period and found numerous discrepancies between the two sources. These discrepancies included mismatches in the number and type of staff (such as RNs, LPNs, Medication Technicians, and CNAs) listed on the posted information compared to the actual staff scheduled and present according to timecard punches. Specific examples included shifts where the staff posting indicated no Medication Technician present while the schedule showed one, or where the posting listed a Registered Nurse on duty but the schedule showed none. There were also instances where the number of CNAs posted did not match the number scheduled, and total hours worked as posted did not align with actual hours from the schedules. These inconsistencies were found across all shifts and on multiple days, affecting the accuracy of the information available to residents and their representatives. During an interview, the Director of Nursing acknowledged the discrepancies and confirmed that the posted staffing information was generated from a computer software program, while the actual schedules were based on timecard punches. The DON stated that the issue had been noticed months prior but was believed to have been corrected, indicating ongoing problems with the accuracy of posted staffing information.
