8109 LOGAN CENTER 515175 55 LOGAN MINGO MENTAL HEALTH CENTER ROAD LOGAN WV 25601 2013-10-01 465 E 1 0 UB5911 c) Room 105 The bathroom in room 105 was observed on 09/30/13 at 11:45 a.m. A small amount of bowel movement was smeared on the seat of the toilet. Two (2) hospital gowns were wadded up on the bathroom floor beside a pair of underpants. A wet washcloth was hanging from the grab bar on the wall by the commode. On 09/30/13 at 12:12 p.m., licensed nurse, Employee #69, was shown the bathroom in room 105. She saw the commode with the bowel movement smear, the dirty gowns and underpants on the floor, and the wet wash cloth hanging from the grab bar. She agreed that dirty linens and clothing should not have been left lying in the bathroom. She said she would notify housekeeping of the bowel movement on the commode seat, and staff would dispose of the dirty linens properly. d) Room 103 On 09/30/13 at 11:46 a.m. the bathroom in room 103 was observed. A pair of latex gloves was left lying on the bathroom floor. At 12:12 p.m. licensed nurse Employee #69 was shown the latex gloves on the bathroom floor. She donned a clean pair of latex gloves. She picked up the pair of gloves that were lying on the bathroom floor. She then removed her newly donned gloves by turning them inside out, thereby containing the gloves that had been lying on the floor of the bathroom. She disposed of the gloves by dropping them in the bathroom trash can. Based on observation and staff interview, the facility failed to provide a safe and sanitary environment. The shower rooms on the 200 and 300 halls had lingering offensive odors, loose gloves, a razor, soiled linens, soiled bandages, used toilet paper and/or opened and unmarked toiletries. There were also pools of standing water, a shower stall with the water running and several pairs of unmarked resident clothing items on the floor. There were two (2) resident's rooms in which the bathrooms contained resident's clothing on the floor, a used washcloth on the grab bar, loose gloves on the floor and a brown substance smeared on the back of the toilet seat. This had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents who receive showers on the 200 and 300 hallways and/or resided in resident rooms #103 and #105. Facility census: 63.
