The facility failed to ensure it had an effective system to ensure incidents of nonconsensual sexual contact were identified and effectively managed to ensure dependent, cognitively impaired women did not experience loss of dignity, or become anxious or fear additional unwanted contacts. As a result of this systemic failure, Residents #26, #39, #51, #49, #24, #37, and #1 were determined to have experienced actual harm. The facility also failed to ensure a resident (#10) received his scheduled daily morning insulin as prescribed by the attending physician. Eight (8) of twenty-six (26) residents were affected.

There was no system in place to ensure skin assessments were completed timely and accurately, that interventions were implemented, monitored, and revised as appropriate, and changes in condition were recognized, evaluated, and reported to the physician, and that staff were knowledgeable in identifying and caring for pressure ulcers. Resident #74 was admitted with pressure ulcers on both elbows and his history identified a recent pressure ulcer to his coccyx. Failure to provide preventative measures resulted in actual harm to the resident by the redevelopment of the sacral pressure ulcer, a deep tissue injury to the left heel, and multiple toe wounds. Additionally, during an observation of wound care for Resident #74's, the nurse did not employ appropriate infection control techniques to reduce the risk of infecting the wound.

The hard plastic-type corridor handrail outside of the pantry room in the first floor main hallway had a missing end piece leaving a sharp jagged edge on the existing center piece. In a resident's bathroom, the grab bar/safety rail on the right side of the toilet was not secured to the wall. In another resident's bathroom, the vinyl wallboard pulled loose from the wall when the grab bar/safety rail was utilized. This had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. Room numbers: #26 and #29. Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) A tour, accompanied by the Nursing Home Administrator #114, Maintenance Supervisor #42, and Housekeeping Supervisor #91 on 02/15/17 between 2:40 p.m. to 3:05 p.m., identified the following issues/concerns: 1.

An incident report dated 12/08/16, described that Resident #51 was sitting in a recliner chair by the nurses' station, when male Resident #62 pulled up her shirt, and fondled and stared at her breasts. According to the incident report, staff quickly removed the male resident and notified the nurse in charge of the event.

These findings had the potential to affect all residents residing in the facility. Resident identifiers: #21, #26, #52, and #49 Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) During the survey, complaints regarding staffing were voiced on both of the facility's two (2) units, the second floor unit (Nursing Care Facility Two (NCF2)) and Nursing Care Facility One (NCF1). The units are completely separate. NCF2 currently houses primarily residents who need assistance or are totally dependent on nursing staff for their activities of daily living (ADLs). NCF1 currently houses primarily residents who are more mobile, require less staff assistance with ADLs, but may have dementia, mental illnesses, and behaviors.

This had the potential to affect all residents and visitors. Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) On 02/13/17 at 11:10 a.m., during the initial tour of the facility, staffing sheets posted for review by residents and visitors were observed on the second floor unit, Nursing Care Facility Two (NCF2). The posting showed the facility name, the date, the shift, the census, and the total hours worked by Registered Nurses (RN), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN), and Nurse Aides (NA), but did not show the total number of RNs, LPNs, and NAs working the shift. b) The 02/13/17 posting for the day shift showed there were two (2) nurses and one (1) nurse aide working on the unit. When asked if there was only one (1) NA working the day shift, RN #141 said the posting was not correct, that someone had come down from the third floor to cover and there were two (2). She pulled the posting sheet off the bulletin board and began to correct it. c) Complaints about inadequate staffing on both the second floor unit (NCF2) and the basement unit (NCF1) led to a detailed review of the staff posting, the schedules, and the payroll data for the period from 01/29/17 through 02/21/17. Numerous, almost daily discrepancies were noted between the posting sheets designed to keep residents and visitors informed about how many staff were working each unit and the actual hours reflected in the payroll information provided. d) When questioned about the discrepancies on 02/20/17 at 2:20 p.m., the facility's Administrator, #114, said, Almost none of the staff postings are accurate. 2020-02-01

This practice was found for one (1) of five (5) Stage 2 sample residents reviewed for unnecessary medications. Resident identifier: #10. Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) Resident #10 On 02/21/17 at 1:17 p.m., medical record review revealed this Resident #10, admitted on [DATE], had [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. He was currently receiving Risperdal (an antipsychotic medication) 0.25 milligrams (mg) by mouth daily twice a day (BID) for schizoaffective disorder. The pharmacist's consultation report dated 02/03/16 noted the resident was receiving Risperdal 0.25 mg BID. The pharmacist recommended, Please consider a gradual dose reduction (GDR) while monitoring for re-emergence of target and/or withdrawal symptoms. The physician signed the report on 03/08/16 declining the recommendation of a GDR for the antipsychotic medication Risperdal (and provided the rationale for declining the recommendation). The Director of Nursing (DON) signed the report on 03/23/16. After reviewing the pharmacy consultation report on 02/27/17 at 12:40 p.m., the DON stated, I anticipate the GDRs being returned with physician decline or acceptance within two (2) weeks. Absolutely that is not a timely response as you can see it was over a month before he (Physician) filled out the form and longer for him (Physician) to return it to me, of course it is not timely. 2020-02-01

Residents' briefs and toiletries were improperly stored on the bathroom floor. Dirty plungers were found behind the commodes, and bathrooms were not routinely checked and cleaned as needed. These findings had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents residing in the facility. Resident identifier: #74. Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) Resident rooms 1. An observation of the restroom in room [ROOM NUMBER] on 02/13/17 at 2:53 p.m., revealed -- a package of briefs on the floor next to the commode -- bottles of shampoo, moisturizer, body wash, and lotion sitting on the floor between the toilet and shower. 2.

This was found for two (2) of thirty-five (35) resident bathrooms. Room numbers: #29 and #2. Facility census: 61. Findings include: a) Observations of the facility during Stage 1 of the Quality Indicator Survey revealed two (2) rooms did not have adequately functioning bathroom call light systems to allow residents to call for assistance. -- Room #29 On 02/14/17 at 3:00 p.m. during a bathroom observation, when the bathroom call light was pulled it sounded and lit up at the nurses' station, but did not light up above the resident's room to alert staff of the location.

Multiple handrails in the corridors utilized by residents in the main thoroughfares were discovered to be loose and/or pulled out of the wall when grabbed/pulled by hand or used as support to assist with locomotion.
