Good Samaritan Bloomfield: Infection Control Gaps - NE

Healthcare Facility
Good Samaritan Society - Bloomfield
Bloomfield, NE  ·  3/5 stars

A November 2025 complaint inspection at the facility, located at 300 North Second St, found that at least one resident had been involuntarily incontinent of feces during what should have been a routine toileting assist. The resident had not chosen to be incontinent. The timing of the help had made it unavoidable.

Federal inspectors cited the facility under F0677, which covers basic personal hygiene and activities of daily living, the category of care that covers the most fundamental dignities of nursing home life: being fed, being dressed, being taken to the bathroom before an accident happens rather than after.

The inspection classified the level of harm as minimal, and noted that few residents were affected. Those qualifiers are regulatory language. For the resident on the commode, already incontinent by the time help arrived, the experience was not minimal.

Good Samaritan Society - Bloomfield is a nonprofit facility operated by the Good Samaritan Society, one of the largest faith-based long-term care networks in the country. The November inspection was triggered by a complaint, meaning someone, a resident, a family member, or a staff member, had already raised a concern before inspectors walked through the door.

The facility's plan of correction was not included in the inspection document. For information on how the home intends to address the deficiency, CMS directs the public to contact the facility or the Nebraska state survey agency directly.
