Not hire anyone with a finding of abuse, neglect, exploitation, or theft.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on review of personnel files, review of the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) Nurse Aide Registry and ODH Abuse Extract file, and review of the facility policy for Abuse, Neglect and Misappropriation of Resident Property, the facility failed to ensure all employees had no findings on the nurse aide registry (NAR) to exclude them from employment in a long-term care facility in any capacity. This had the potential to affect all 110 residents living in the facility.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings included: Record review of the personnel file for Housekeeper #312 revealed a hire date of 08/22/22. There was a NAR search document, undated, in the file indicating there were no findings for Housekeeper #312 Review of the ODH Nurse Aide Registry (NAR) web site (https://odh.ohio.gov/Public/PublicNurseAideSearch) on 05/24/23 revealed Housekeeper #312 was not in good standing and not eligible to work in a long term care facility in any capacity due to the individual had been found to have committed abuse, neglect or misappropriation. Review of the ODH Abuse Extract file on 05/24/23 confirmed Housekeeper #312 was listed as a person not in good standing and not eligible to work in a long term care facility in any capacity since 05/14/2018. Review of the facility policy titled Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation and Misappropriation, dated 10/2020, stated it was the policy of the facility to undertake background checks of all employees and retain on file applicable records of current employees. The facility would check the Ohio nurse assistant registry and other nurse assistant registries to ensure that employees hold the requisite license and/or certification to perform their job functions and do not have disciplinary action. Interview was conducted on 05/24/23 at 12:37 P.M. with Human Resources Director (HRD) #329 who verified Housekeeper #312 was on the ODH Nurse Aide Registry and not in good standing and not eligible to work in a long term care facility in any capacity. HRD #329 explained she did not understand why there was a discrepancy between the NAR check she ran prior to hiring Housekeeper #312 and the NAR she ran on her on 05/23/23 showing she was not eligible for hire. HRD #329 said Housekeeper #312 had been suspended immediately because of this finding and would not be able to continue to work in the facility. This deficiency represents noncompliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00140036 and Complaint Number OH00142204.

Observation on 05/25/23 at 7:48 A.M. revealed Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON)/ Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)/ Wound Nurse #346 and with the assistance of LPN #383 completed Resident #3's wound care with no concerns as the old dressing was dated appropriately. Interview on 05/25/23 at 9:15 A.M. with ADON/ LPN/ Wound Nurse #346 revealed she completed the wound care almost daily Monday through Friday. She verified on May 2023's TAR for Resident #3 the TAR had the above blanks. She revealed she completed the treatments and wound care as ordered, but most likely forgot to sign off the treatments as being completed. Interview on 05/25/23 at 9:40 A.M. with Administrator verified the treatments were not documented as completed per Resident #3's TAR as mentioned above. She revealed she had talked to him, and he was cognitively intact and had stated his treatments were completed daily. She revealed the treatments were completed but instead it was a documentation issue that the nurses had not documented after they had completed the treatment. She verified after the completion of a treatment the nurse was to document on the TAR. Review of facility policy labeled, Dressing Change, Dry/ Clean dated November 2015 revealed the documentation of the treatment should be documented in the resident record. This deficiency represents noncompliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00140036.
