Cityview Nursing and Rehab: Soiled Linens Left Unchanged - TX

Healthcare Facility
Cityview Nursing And Rehabilitation Center
Fort Worth, TX  ·  2/5 stars

The man, identified in inspection records only as Resident #1, was in his sixties and had been admitted to the facility the previous December. His diagnoses included intestinal cancer that had spread throughout his body, a mass on his left kidney requiring a drainage tube, and acute kidney failure. He was on a diuretic, a medication that increases urination by pulling excess fluid from the body. His care plan documented that he was incontinent of both bowel and bladder and dependent on staff for toileting hygiene.

His mind was fully intact. His cognitive score placed him in the normal range.

When the inspector observed him at 11:09 a.m. on January 29, the draw sheet beneath him was brown, the color of dried urine. He told the inspector his bedding had not been changed since the previous evening. He said no one had come in that morning. He said he hadn't realized he was lying in it and hadn't called for help because he didn't know it had happened.

The certified nursing aide assigned to his hall, identified as CNA-A, told the inspector four minutes later that she hadn't checked on him yet. She said she had been busy with other residents. She didn't know he had been incontinent. She said she did not feel overworked because there were other aides working the hall.

The assistant director of nursing said there was no reason the resident should have been left that way. He said the night shift should have caught it before leaving, and that CNA-A should have found it when she made her morning rounds. He described his expectation plainly: nurses and aides were to round on all their residents at the start of each shift to assess for needs. He acknowledged that lying in urine-soaked linen carries the risk of skin breakdown and irritation.

When the inspector examined the resident's skin, there was no breakdown or open excoriation. There was some redness from lying on his back.

Other residents on the hall told inspectors they had no complaints. Staff checked on them, they said. Their needs were being met.

The facility's own policy on activities of daily living, last updated in May 2023, listed bathing, dressing, grooming, oral care, and toileting among the care and services it committed to providing. It said nothing specific about changing soiled linens.

The inspection, conducted as a complaint survey, cited the facility for failing to provide a clean and comfortable environment. The finding covered one of seven residents reviewed and was rated at the lower end of the harm scale, meaning inspectors found minimal harm or the potential for actual harm rather than serious injury. The citation noted the failure placed the resident at risk of skin breakdown and, in the language of the report, "decreased feelings of self-worth."

That phrase, clipped and bureaucratic, sits at the end of a findings summary describing a man with terminal cancer, on a diuretic, cognitively aware, lying alone in wet bedding since the night before, not knowing anyone would come.
