Dialysis RN #841 told inspectors she had been asking for months to fix the damaged floor tiles, which were "never installed correctly" and became trip hazards after flood water flowed under the entry door. The gray panels, measuring 30 inches by five inches each, were lifting around edges or had large missing pieces.
"A dialysis unit should not have an odor of body waste," RN #841 told inspectors on December 9. The smell came from resident waste going into drains from multiple dialysis machines that flowed under floors to the outside. A company had cleaned the drains several times, but the odor persisted.
A restoration contractor who handled flood mitigation warned the facility to close the dialysis unit for proper restoration after water went underneath the flooring. The facility refused, telling contractor #845 they couldn't shut down operations. He said they promised a flooring company would replace the floor the following Monday.
That was six months ago.
Elsewhere in the facility, inspectors found a privacy curtain in a resident room stained with a three-foot by two-foot area of "dark purplish brown staining of either dried blood or feces." A plastic door protector hung loose with a sharp corner sticking into the doorway entrance.
CNA #404 confirmed residents' wheelchairs got stuck on the door cover and verified "a resident could get injured on the loose sharp corner."
The facility's infection preventionist worked in an office with ceiling stains covering more than half the surface from prior roof leaks. Dark brown staining spread from the brick wall perimeter to the center ceiling light.
By December 31, the door protector was finally secured with screws.
