Inspection Report
Complaint Investigation
Deficiencies: 4
Date: Apr 16, 2021
Visit Reason
The inspection was conducted due to an allegation of physical abuse reported by Resident Identifier (RI) #28 against a Certified Nursing Assistant (EI #4). The visit aimed to investigate the abuse allegation and assess compliance with abuse prevention policies.
Complaint Details
The complaint involved an allegation of physical abuse by a CNA (EI #4) against Resident Identifier #28. The allegation was reported late to management and the Abuse Coordinator. The accused CNA was allowed to work for four additional days after the allegation was made. The facility investigation was unable to substantiate the abuse. The RN Supervisor received a warning for failure to report immediately. Corrective actions included suspension and termination of the CNA, resident assessment, notification of physician and sponsor, staff education, and a resident council meeting.
Findings
The facility failed to promptly investigate and report the abuse allegation, allowing the accused CNA to continue working for several days after the report. The abuse allegation was ultimately unsubstantiated. Additional deficiencies were found related to respiratory care, food safety and storage, and infection control practices.
Deficiencies (4)
Failure to ensure Resident Identifier #28 was protected from potential abuse after reporting physical abuse by a CNA; failure to assess for injuries, initiate investigation, remove accused CNA from care, and report allegation timely.
Failure to change oxygen tubing weekly for Resident Identifier #4, risking infection.
Failure to properly label and date opened food items, presence of broken eggs on top of unbroken eggs, and accumulation of dust on air conditioning vent above clean trays and cups in the kitchen.
Failure to change gloves after removing soiled brief and before applying clean brief during incontinent care for Resident Identifier #58, risking infection spread.
