10686 JACKIE WITHROW HOSPITAL 5.1e+110 105 SOUTH EISENHOWER DRIVE BECKLEY WV 25801 2009-07-02 323 E 0 1 DBCB11 Based on observation, a review of the material safety data sheets, and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure the locked unit, in which cognitively impaired residents resided, was kept safe and free from accident hazards. The janitor's closet on this unit was left unlocked, allowing access by the residents to its hazardous contents. This practice has the potential to result in more than minimal harm to all residents on this unit (Unit 3-C). Unit census: 17. Facility census: 81. Finding include: a) Unit 3-C During a tour of the locked unit (Unit 3-C) on 06/29/2009 at 2:00 p.m., the door to the janitor's closet was noted to be unlocked. This surveyor opened the door and looked around on the inside. The contents of this closet included heavy duty cleaner, disinfectant, floor cleaner, and Ajax. After the surveyor came out of the closet, a health services worker (Employee #111), who had been standing in the hall and observed the surveyor go into the closet, came and locked the door. She stated, "He must have forgot to lock the door. He took the residents outside to smoke." The housekeeping supervisor (Employee #14) was made aware of this observation on 07/01/09 at 10:00 a.m., and she was asked to provided the material safety data sheets (MSDS) for the chemicals observed in the unlocked closet. Review of the MSDS sheets revealed the chemicals in this unlocked closet could be hazardous to the residents if they ingested the products, got the Ajax on the skin, or inhaled the particles. . 2015-01-01
