5008 ANSTED CENTER 515133 PO BOX 400 ANSTED WV 25812 2016-04-20 253 E 1 0 06GH11 > Based on observation, resident interview, staff interview, family interview, facility record review, and policy review, the facility failed to provide housekeeping services necessary to maintain a sanitary, orderly, and comfortable interior. Curtain tracks were coated with dust/grime, garbage was overflowing on to the resident's floor, and floors were dirty. This practice affected eight (8) residents. Resident identifier: #33. Rooms: 200, 201, 204, and 208. Facility census: 57. Findings include: a) Resident #33 1. During an interview and observation on 04/18/16 at 4:04 p.m., Resident #33 related the curtain track over his bed was filthy. Observation revealed a layer of dust/grime along the track. The resident and his wife pointed to a dark pink mark on the wall/window border about midway down the window area. Resident #33 also related the floor on the right side of his bed, between the bed and the window was dirty, and pointed to dark brown/black areas. The resident said the areas had been there for at least three (3) days. Resident #33 and his wife stated staff only mopped every two (2) to three (3) days. She related staff buffed, but only from the entry across the room and bathroom. Another observation on 04/19/16 at 9:05 a.m., revealed the dark areas on the floor on the far side of the bed by the window remained. An interview with the housekeeping supervisor, on 04/19/16 at 10:50 a.m., revealed she only had two (2) housekeeping staff, one (1) from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and one (1) from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. She said the housekeeper who came on duty at 11:00 a.m., was the one who completed the detailed cleaning of the rooms, and upon completion, she assisted with cleaning other rooms. During rounds with the supervisor she confirmed the floor area on the right side of Resident #33's bed was dirty, and the curtain guide over the bed was coated with grime and dust balls. 2. While reviewing information about the admission process and residents rights with Resident #33 and his wife on 04/20/16 at 1:30 p.m., his wife retrieved an admission folder from the night stand bottom drawer. The folder belonged to the resident who had resided in that room just prior to Resident #33's admission. An interview with the administrator immediately following the observation confirmed the folder would have been removed from the drawer had the housekeeper cleaned the nightstand. b) Rooms 204 and 208 Additionally, rooms 204 and 208 also had curtain guides covered with grime and dust. The supervisor confirmed the guides should have been cleaned during room detail. The supervisor related the room scheduled was accurate and rooms had been detailed. c) The maintaining/detail/cleaning calendar, dated (MONTH) (YEAR), reviewed on 04/19/16 at 9:15 a.m., indicated Room 200 A/B (Resident #33's room) had been cleaned on 04/11/16, Room 204 A/B had been cleaned on 04/16/16 and Room 208A/B had been cleaned on 04/18/16. The supervisor reviewed the schedule and confirmed all rooms had not been cleaned as scheduled. d) During an interview on 04/20/16 at 9:20 a.m., Housekeeper #105 related each room was mopped once a day and might be mopped more often when there were spills. She confirmed Resident #33's room had not yet been cleaned. The housekeeper also acknowledged only the walking area from the doorway to the bathroom was mopped. e) The detail cleaning policy, reviewed on 04/19/16 at 11:36 a.m., indicated the purpose was to ensure an optimal level of cleanliness of resident/patient rooms and to enhance the overall appearance of their environment. f) Waste management An observation on 04/19/16 at 8:30 a.m., revealed garbage overflowing onto the floor in Room 201, and garbage on the floor in the bathroom of Room 200. Other observations at 9:05 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., found the garbage remained on the floor. An interview with Housekeeper #105 revealed the housekeepers were responsible for disposing of garbage and cleaning the rooms. Upon inquiry, the housekeeper related nursing staff did not assist with garbage disposal. Housekeeper #105 related she was the only housekeeper on duty from 8:00 a.m. until 11:00 a.m., and indicated a walk-through was completed each morning, and the areas which required the most cleaning were done first. The waste management policy, reviewed on 04/20/16 at 10:00 a.m., required waste bags be closed and removed from the area when three quarters (3/4) full. During an interview with the Center Nurse Executive (CNE) on 04/19/16 at 3:30 p.m., she related the garbage should not have been allowed to overflow onto the floor and nursing staff should have emptied the garbage as needed. 2019-04-01
