Inspection Report Summary for Columbus Hospice

The most recent inspection on May 11, 2022, identified deficiencies related to incomplete and inadequate plans of care for hospice patients, particularly concerning Foley catheter and PEG tube care. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues with updating comprehensive assessments and plans of care, especially regarding wound care and specific patient needs. A substantiated complaint investigation in early 2019 revealed multiple deficiencies in communication, pain management, wound care, and coordination with an assisted living facility, though follow-up surveys found those issues corrected. Complaint investigations since then were mostly unsubstantiated, and no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history indicates some recurring documentation and care planning challenges but also shows improvement following corrective actions.
