Martha stated all 24 residents and 13 staff tested on 12/30/2020, results pending. Other staff were tested on 12/21/2020, results negative. Line list was reviewed, resident was at a Good Samaritan moved to the ER for low O2 saturation, completed lab work and put a hold on medication. Martha stated she will update the resident line list.
The team observed the exterior of the facility and entrance and exits to follow up on deficiencies cited on 12/24/2020 pending correction. Observed exit door in lounge on floor two to have the alarm disable and an unlocked door on floor two. POC not cleared at this time for previous citations. Staff one (S1) stated two residents like to go outside to garden and staff take smoking breaks out there. In the garden patio furniture in did not encourage social distancing, disinfection and sanitization supplies were not observed, and there was a pallet and tables folded up leaning against the building in the garden causing a trip hazard for residents using the garden. Items to be donated including, tables, chairs, walkers, wheelchairs, lamp shades, plastic totes, and mirrors were observed along side yard of the facility. S1 stated these items were pending donation pick up. They were not in an area regularly used by residents but in an area residents have access to behind a latched but unlocked gate off the garden. Phone system wires were observed to be exposed and a potential hazard in the side yard. The patio where visitors and residents use for visits was observed with clutter and chairs not compliance with social distancing requirements. LPA provided technical assistance to move furniture, provide social distancing signs, and sanitizer for use in the garden and on the patio. LPM provided technical assistance to post signs at all exits to ensure staff and visitors are directed to enter through the main entrance. One entrance off the ramp for floor two is used to medical transport in and out and deliveries. LPM recommended to put a sign to state what that entry is used for but visitors need to be screened at main entrance.
