Optalis Three Rivers: Resident Fracture Ignored - MI

Healthcare Facility
Optalis Health And Rehabilitation Of Three Rivers
Three Rivers, MI  ·  1/5 stars

That's what inspectors found at Optalis Health and Rehabilitation of Three Rivers during a complaint inspection that wrapped October 22.

The Director of Nursing, identified in inspection records as DON B, told inspectors that the resident, referred to as R1, had not been wandering into other residents' rooms before the fracture. She said that if wandering had been a problem before October 11, staff would have put interventions in place then. None were put in place after, either.

The MDS nurse confirmed that R1 now needed assistance walking and with daily activities where she hadn't before, and that a significant change assessment was underway. The fracture had changed what R1 could do. The facility's response had not changed at all.

A second resident, R2, created a separate problem. Staff were afraid of him, both in common areas and when entering his room. DON B said she had no idea. Her solution, offered to inspectors, was that other residents would let her know if R2 was bothering them.

The activities manager said R1 attends no group activities. Staff provide one-on-one activities with her daily. R2 participates only when food is involved.

The facility had a power of attorney contact for R1 to call when behavior issues arose. Staff tried to reach that family member to discuss R1's situation and couldn't get through.

Inspectors classified the violations as causing actual harm, affecting a small number of residents. R1 went from independent to needing help walking. The facility's interdisciplinary team reviewed the situation and decided no additional supervision was necessary for either resident.
