F600J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on review of facility policy, record review, and interview, the facility failed to ensure three Residents (R) R24, R61 and R97 out of five residents reviewed for abuse/neglect were protected from potential sexual abuse. The facility failed to ensure R61 was protected from potential sexual abuse by a staff member/staff members after she made an allegation of potential sexual assault and failed to ensure R24 and R97 were protected from potential sexual abuse after the two residents, who were not interviewable, were observed together in R24's room with their pants down. The facility's systemic failure to ensure the prevention of abuse created the potential for residents to be, or to continue to be, sexually abused by staff or other residents leading to serious physical and/or psychological harm for each resident. Immediate Jeopardy related to this failure was identified on 09/04/24 at 4:51 PM and was determined to exist since 01/25/24, when the facility failed to ensure R24 and R97 were protected from further potential abuse after an incident of potential resident to resident sexual abuse was observed between the two residents. On 09/04/24 at 4:51 PM, the facility's Administrator was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy at F600, Abuse. The facility Administrator was notified that the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 09/06/24 at 4:00 PM. The noncompliance remained at a scope and severity level of D (isolated with the with the potential for more than minimal harm) following the removal of the immediate jeopardy. Findings include: Review of the facility's undated Abuse Prohibition, Reporting and Investigation Policy read, in pertinent part, Definitions: 1. Abuse: Means the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain or mental anguish; and It includes verbal abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse and mental abuse including abuse facilitated or enabled through the use of technology; and Willful means the individual must have acted deliberately, not that the individual must have intended to inflict injury or harm; and It is the intent of Magnolia Manor facilities to actively preserve each resident's right to be free from mistreatment, neglect, abuse or misappropriation of resident property. We believe each resident has the right to be free from verbal, sexual, physical, and mental abuse, corporal punishment, and involuntary seclusion. 1. Review of R61's Admission Record, dated 09/06/24 and found in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) under the Admissions Tab, indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The document indicated the resident's diagnoses included type 2 diabetes, depression, and anxiety. Review of R61's annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) Assessment, with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 06/07/24 and found in the EMR under the MDS tab, indicated a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) assessment was not able to be completed for the resident due to her refusal to participate in the interview. The assessment indicated the resident had both short and long-term memory deficits. The MDS indicated R61 did not display any behaviors during the assessment reference period. Review of R61's comprehensive Care Plan most recently dated 08/16/24 and found in the EMR under the Care Plan tab, indicated the resident exhibited behaviors including refusal of care and sometimes had delusions and/or hallucinations. The Care Plan also indicated the resident exhibited signs and symptoms of depression, including little interest or pleasure in doing things, feeling down, depressed, or hopeless, poor appetite and being short tempered at times. Review of the Complaint Form, dated 08/06/24 provided by the facility and completed by the MDS Coordinator (MDSC) on behalf of R61, read, in pertinent part, I spoke with (R61) asking her if she had any complaints. She said yes. She said the CNAs (Certified Nursing Assistants) let her lay in urine and she is only changed once a shift. She said they are sometimes rough with her when giving care. She said she wondered if the females that work here are Lesies (sic) because they put their fingers up her. She said they put stuff in her drinks and are trying to poison her. Review of R61's EMR indicated nothing related to the resident's report of potential abuse by staff and nothing to indicate the resident was physically assessed and or sent to the local Emergency Department (ED) for evaluation related to the above referenced potential abuse. Nothing could be found in the facility's documentation or in the resident's EMR to indicate any attempt was made to determine what specific staff R61 was referring to related to the allegation of potential abuse or that R61 was protected from further potential abuse by staff after her allegation of potential abuse was made on 08/06/24. During an interview with the MDSC on 09/03/24 at 2:36 PM, she confirmed R61 reported the potential abuse to her on 08/06/24. The MDSC stated R61 alleged female staff put their fingers in her. She stated (R61) looked right at me wide eyed, held my hand, and said she wondered if the females were lezzies (lesbians) because they put their fingers up me. The MDSC stated she reported the allegation to Registered Nurse (RN)1 (the Unit Manager responsible for R61's care), the Administrator, and the Director of Nursing (DON) immediately after the report of potential abuse. The MDSC stated RN1 told her the resident had recently been impacted (with hard stool in her colon) and that R61 had a history of refusing cares. The MDSC indicated she was not aware of how R61's allegation of potential abuse was addressed after it was reported. During an interview with RN1 on 09/03/24 at 3:01 PM, she confirmed the MDSC reported R61's allegation of potential abuse to her on 08/06/24 and confirmed R61's allegations were related to staff poisoning her drinks and her perception that (female) staff in the facility were lesbians and were fingering her (placing their fingers in her vagina). RN1 stated she and the Administrator spoke to R61 related to the allegation of potential abuse two days after the allegation was made and the resident stated she didn't want the CNAs to change her (provide peri-care/incontinence care) because the staff was all lesbians and were going to finger her. RN1 confirmed no physical assessment was completed for R61 nor did staff attempt to send the resident to the local ED for evaluation related to the report of potential abuse. She confirmed nothing was done, after the resident's report of potential abuse, to ensure the resident was protected from further potential abuse by staff as far as she was aware. During an interview with the Social Services Director (SSD) on 09/03/24 at 3:32 PM, she stated she was aware of R61's allegation of potential abuse. She stated the MDSC brought the resident's Complaint Form related to the allegation to her on the day of the report, and that she read the complaint form over and then gave the form to the DON and the Administrator the same day. The SSD stated she and RN1 attempted to interview R61 about the report of potential abuse on the day of the report, but R61 refused to speak with them. The SSD stated she was not involved in/aware of any measures put into place related to the resident's allegation to ensure the resident's protection from further potential abuse. During an interview with the DON on 09/03/24 at 3:42 PM, she confirmed she was the facility's Abuse Coordinator and stated she was aware of R61's allegation of potential abuse, but stated she was not involved in facility follow-up related to the allegation to ensure R61's protection from further potential abuse. The DON stated she had heard a little bit about the resident's allegation from staff, but stated R61 could be a little bit delusional. The DON confirmed R61 had never been physically assessed related to the allegation of potential abuse and stated she did not think any attempt had been made to send the resident to the ED for evaluation. She confirmed nothing had been done related to the resident's allegation of potential abuse to ensure R61 was protected from further potential abuse by staff. She stated her expectation was any resident who reported potential abuse was to be assessed for potential injury and measures were to be taken to ensure the resident was protected from further potential abuse. During an interview with the Administrator and DON on 09/04/24 at 11:16 AM, the Administrator confirmed the DON was the facility's Abuse Coordinator and stated he and the DON were both responsible for ensuring residents were protected from potential abuse. The Administrator stated he was aware of R61's allegation of potential abuse on 08/06/24, but stated he did not interpret the report as potential abuse since the resident often refused care, had a history of kicking a CNA during care, and had a history of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and potential bowel obstruction requiring staff to potentially remove stool digitally from the resident's rectum. The Administrator stated his expectation was that any resident who reported potential abuse should be protected from further potential abuse while an investigation into the alleged abuse was conducted. He confirmed this had not been done related to R61's allegation of potential abuse. During an interview on 09/06/24 at 2:00 PM, R61 confirmed her report of potential abuse to the MDSC on 08/06/24. 27375 2. Review of R24's Face Sheet, located in the resident's EMR under the Face Sheet tab revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included Alzheimer's disease unspecified and dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere without behavioral disturbance. Review of R24's quarterly MDS with an (ARD) of 07/09/24 revealed the facility assessed the resident to have a BIMS score of two out of 15 which indicated the resident was severely cognitively impaired. 3. Review of R97's Face Sheet, located in the resident's EMR under the Face Sheet tab revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included Alzheimer's disease unspecified, with other behavioral disturbance, and unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition. Review of R97's quarterly MDS with an (ARD) of 02/15/24 revealed the facility assessed the resident's BIMS score was blank, there was no score to assess resident's cognitive status. Record review of R97's Progress Note dated 01/25/24 located in the EMR under the Progress Note tab revealed resident was noted at 4:05 PM by CNA's doing rounds to be in R24's room with the door closed. R24 was lying in her bed on a towel with her pants half-way down and R97 was coming out of R24's bathroom with his shirt up and his pants half-way down. Review of a Witness Statement provided by the facility dated 01/25/24 written by Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) 8 revealed CNA8 went into R24's room to change R24's brief. CNA8 opened R24's bathroom and R97 was in the bathroom barefoot and pulling up his shirt. CNA8's witness statement also stated R24 was sitting on her bed, the covers were pulled back and a towel was spread out on the bed. Review of a Witness Statement dated 01/25/24 written by CNA7 revealed CNA7 entered R24's room, she saw R24's pants down and R97 was in R24's bathroom with his shoes off and his and his shirt up.

Review of a Witness Statement provided by the facility dated 01/25/24 written by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) 13 revealed on 01/25/24 approximately 6:00 PM CNA's reported to her that R24's bedroom door was closed and when they entered they witnessed, R24 laying on her bed on a towel with her pants halfway down. The statement also revealed R97 was coming out of R24's bathroom with his shoes off, shirt up and his pants half-way down. The residents could not explain what happened. During an interview on 09/03/24 at 11:15 AM the Administrator stated he was aware of the potential abuse incident between R24 and R97. However, he felt the incident did not need to be investigated or reported to the state, because staff did not witness R24 and R97 doing anything. During an interview on 09/03/24 at 4:04 PM with the DON who read the three witness statements and confirmed the incident between R24 and R97 was potential abuse. She said she did not know if it was an allegation of sexual abuse, because staff did not see R24 and R97 doing anything. During an interview on 09/04/24 at 4:57 PM, CNA7 stated she remembered R97 was in R24's bathroom with his shoes off and his shirt up, while R24's pants were down with a large towel laid on R24's bed. 29015

We spoke with the resident regarding her concerns, and we spoke with staff members regarding the concern. The staff on both rotations denied her allegations. I also checked the documentation in her records and it indicates that she frequently refuses care. (R61) has a history of having thoughts and making comments that are outside of reality. There was not evidence to support the claims that she made. She accused the staff of placing things in her beverages yet there is no report or finding of poisoning. The document did not specifically address R61's allegation of potential sexual abuse. The facility was not able to provide any additional documentation related to an investigation done in response to R61's 08/06/24 allegation of potential sexual abuse by staff including written and signed statements obtained from residents or staff potentially knowledgeable about the alleged incident, evidence of any attempt to assess R61 physically and psychosocially related to the reported incident, or the facility's attempt to identify potential perpetrators of the alleged abuse, exact circumstances of the alleged abuse, or time/date of the alleged abuse.

The DON stated upon reflection of the report, R61's 08/06/24 allegation of potential sexual abuse should have been thoroughly investigated; however, the allegation was not interpreted as potential abuse at the time of the report due to R61's history of behaviors and delusional thinking. During an interview with the Administrator and DON on 09/04/24 at 11:16 AM, the Administrator stated he and the DON were responsible for investigating allegations of potential abuse. He confirmed R61's allegation of potential sexual abuse had not been thoroughly investigated and that he was unable to locate any additional documentation related to an investigation into the resident's allegation of sexual abuse. The Administrator stated he did not interpret R61's report as potential abuse since the resident often refused care, had a history of kicking a CNA during care, and had a history of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and potential bowel obstruction requiring staff to potentially digitally remove stool from the resident's rectum. The Administrator stated because he did not interpret R61's report as an allegation of potential abuse, the allegation was not investigated as though it was an allegation of potential abuse. 27375 2.

R24 was lying in her bed on a towel with her pants half-way down and R97 was coming out of R24's bathroom with his shirt up and his pants half-way down. There was no evidence in the EMR that the incident between R27 and R97 had been thoroughly investigated. During an interview on 09/03/24 at 11:15 AM the Administrator stated he felt the incident did not need to be investigated, because staff did not witness R24 and R97 doing anything. During an interview on 09/03/24 at 4:04 PM the DON confirmed the incident between R24 and R97 was not thoroughly investigated because staff did not see the residents doing anything. 29015

Based on observation, interview, policy review, product label and/or instruction review, and a review of information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the facility failed to ensure one of three Housekeepers (Hskpr) used cleaning and disinfecting products according to manufacturer's instructions for use (MIFU) to ensure bacteria [MEDICAL CONDITION] were removed so as to prevent the potential for spread of disease, including COVID-19. Findings include: Review of the facility policy titled Housekeeping Services, copyright date 2012, showed: Purpose: To promote a safe and sanitary environment which is maintained by a contracted service, by employees of the facility, or a combination of both. Policy: I. Frictional Cleaning A. Thorough scrubbing will be used for all environmental surfaces that are being cleaned in resident areas IV. Choice of Cleaning Agents for Use in Patient Care Areas A. A hospital-grade disinfectant/detergent registered by the federal EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) shall be used. B. Except for alcohol (70 to 90%), antiseptic agents intended for use on skin will not be used for surface cleaning VI. Infection Prevention A. Housekeeping Services play a large role in maintaining a clean healthcare environment. B. Personnel will be oriented and trained in proper technique Review of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Coronavirus page for long term care facilities (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/long-term-care.html ) showed: .Environmental Cleaning and Disinfection: Develop a schedule for regular cleaning and disinfection of shared equipment, frequently touched surfaces in resident rooms and common areas. Ensure EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectants are available to allow for frequent cleaning of high-touch surfaces and shared resident care equipment. Use an EPA-registered disinfectant from List Nexternal icon on the EPA website to disinfect surfaces that might be contaminated with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]-CoV-2. Ensure HCP are appropriately trained on its use Review of the bleach label copy provided by the facility showed: Directions for use: It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. DO NOT use this product full strength for cleaning surfaces. Always dilute strictly in accordance with the directions. For prolonged use, wear gloves. For Hospital Use: Hospital Disinfection ½ Cup Bleach 1 Gallon Water Pre-wash surface, then apply bleach solution. Let stand 5 minutes. Rinse and air dry Review of the Sani-Kleen Broad-Cide 128 instruction sheet showed: .See product label for complete mixing and use instructions. Dilution is 1oz./gal. (1:128) .Viruses: This product kills the following viruses in 10 minutes at 1 oz. per gal. of water and 5% soil on hard non-porous surfaces: . Human Coronavirus . Review of a copy of the PDI Super Sani-Cloth wipes canister label from the facility showed .Virucidal in 2 minutes. Review of a copy of the Dispatch wipes canister label from the facility showed Cleaner disinfectant towels with bleach. Kills [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]icile spores in 3 minutes. (While human coronavirus was not shown on the label, Dispatch is on the EPA list for disinfectants effective against coronavirus.) Review of the CDC page regarding building disinfection (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html) showed: Disinfect with a disinfectant on EPA List N: Disinfectants for Coronavirus (COVID-19) external icon. Follow the instructions on the label to ensure safe and effective use of the product. Many products recommend: Keeping surface wet with disinfectant for a period of time (see product label). Precautions such as wearing gloves and making sure you have good ventilation while using the product If products on EPA List N: Disinfectants for Coronavirus (COVID-19) are not available, bleach solutions can be used if appropriate for the surface and will be effective against coronaviruses when properly diluted. Most household bleach contains 5%-9% sodium hypochlorite. Do not use a bleach product if the percentage is not in this range or is not specified, such as some types of laundry bleach or splash-less bleach as these are not appropriate for disinfection. Follow the directions on the bleach bottle for preparing a diluted bleach solution. If your bottle does not have directions, you can make a bleach solution for disinfecting by mixing: 5 tablespoons (1/3 cup) of bleach per gallon of room temperature water OR 4 teaspoons of bleach per quart of room temperature water. Follow the manufacturer's application instructions for the surface. If instructions are not available, leave the diluted bleach solution on the surface for at least 1 minute before removing or wiping. This is known as the contact time for disinfection. The surface should remain visibly wet during the contact time. Ensure proper ventilation during and after application (for example, open windows). Never mix household bleach (or any disinfectants) with any other cleaners or disinfectants. This can cause vapors that may be very dangerous to breathe in. Make a new diluted bleach solution daily. Bleach solutions will not be as effective after being mixed with water for over 24 hours. In an interview on 2/11/21 at 11:05 a.m. regarding the product(s) used on high touch areas of the facility (e.g., handrails, doorknobs, light switches), Hskpr GG stated she used PDI Sani Cloths (purple top canister), Dispatch wipes, bleach solution and Sani Chem Broad-Cide spray bottle. At this time, Hskpr GG showed the products on the housekeeping cart. When asked how long the product was used on the high touch areas (contact time), Hskpr GG stated, Really no time I'm certain of. I wipe it down and may go back and dry it. Hskpr GG then picked up a dry white cloth to show. When asked about the concentration of the bleach solution, Hskpr GG did not know a specific percentage. Hskpr GG picked up the spray bottle and pointed to the 350 milliliter (ml) line stating, I mix about half and half, up to here with bleach and the rest water. Bleach is used in the bathrooms, I let it sit for like two - three seconds. Observation of Hskpr GG cleaning the bathroom for room [ROOM NUMBER] on 2/11/21 at 11:10 a.m. showed her spraying the toilet rim, and seat bottom with both the bleach solution and Broad-Cide products simultaneously, with one spray bottle in each hand. Hskpr GG then went to the cart at the room doorway to retrieve a bowl brush and white cloths, used the bowl brush around the bowl for six rounds, then took the white cloths and wiped down the top, then bottom of the toilet seat, and then the bowl rim with the dry cloths at 11:11 a.m. At 11:13 a.m., Hskpr GG pulled two PDI Sani-Cloths from the canister and cleaned the room door doorknob, then the bathroom door doorknob, then the overbed table at 11:13:15 a.m. And although the surface should have remained wet for two minutes to ensure the effectiveness of the cleaner, at 11:14:00 (45 seconds later) the overbed table was observed to be drying. Hskpr GG failed to rewet the table to ensure that it remained wet for the required two minutes. In an interview on 2/11/21 at 5:34 p.m., the Environmental Services Director (EVSD) revealed that the contact time depended on the product and could be anywhere from two to ten minutes for each product. She stated, The Broad-Cide comes premixed, the only thing mixed is the bleach and it should not be too strong. I try to mix that myself, ½ cup bleach to one gallon of water according to the directions on the label, and I am mixing a solution that should have a 5-minute contact time. Broad-Cide is a five to seven-minute dwell time, and I mainly want them (staff) to use that on the floors, it can be dispensed right into the buckets. When asked if the practice observed at 11:10 a.m. met expectations for disinfection, the EVSD stated, Well, no, not on that one. I expect staff should follow manufacturer's dwell time.
