Cranberry Place: Pressure Ulcer Care Deficiency - PA

Healthcare Facility
Cranberry Place
Cranberry Township, PA  ·  1/5 stars

Inspectors visiting on January 29, 2026 noticed the display at 11:27 a.m. It showed Resident R151's call light had already been active for 25 minutes. When they checked back, the final count reached 26 minutes. The problem was a foley catheter, a thin tube inserted into the bladder to drain urine, that the resident said felt wrong.

An RN on the floor confirmed what the monitor showed: two logged intervals, 22 minutes and 25 minutes, for the same resident.

The director of nursing, interviewed that afternoon, confirmed the facility had failed to maintain sufficient nursing staff. The admission covered more than one data point. Staffing fell short during one of four quarters of facility data reviewed, specifically the third quarter. Residents raised the issue directly at two of three Resident Council meetings, in November 2025 and again in January 2026. Six of seven residents in a separate group meeting said the same thing. Grievance records for January 2026 reflected the problem. And inspectors observed it themselves, documenting inadequate response to call lights for five of the ten residents they watched: R41, R73, R76, R79, and R151.

That is a pattern that residents had been naming, in formal meetings, for months. The facility logged the grievances. The council meetings happened. Nobody disputes the timeline.

Inspectors rated the harm as minimal or potential. Resident R151 was left waiting with a catheter problem for 26 minutes while the clock on the nurses' station desk ran in plain view.
