Voorhees Pediatric Facility: Medical Records Breach - NJ

Healthcare Facility
Voorhees Pediatric Facility
Voorhees, NJ  ·  2/5 stars

The complaint inspection found that staff failed to document enteral tube feedings in the facility's electronic medical records system. The violation was cited at a level of minimal harm, affecting a small number of residents.

What makes the lapse notable is where inspectors found the requirement: inside the facility's own policy. The document, titled "Nutrition: Enteral" and last revised in June 2025, states explicitly that feedings are to be recorded in the EMR. The policy exists, in its own language, to ensure residents "safely and effectively receive appropriate nutrition via enteral tube." Step 19 of the procedure guidelines says to record the feeding. Staff were not doing it.

Enteral feeding, whether delivered by pump or bolus, is not supplemental for these children. For patients whose clinical condition requires it, the tube is the only source of nourishment. When feedings go unrecorded, the gap in documentation leaves no reliable way to confirm a child received nutrition at all, or to identify missed feedings before they compound.

The facility revised its own nutrition policy less than eight months before inspectors arrived and found the core documentation step going unmet.

The inspection report does not name the children affected or describe what, if any, consequences followed from the missing records.
