Anadarko Nursing & Rehab: Dirty, Cluttered Conditions - OK
That is what federal inspectors found at Anadarko Nursing & Rehab, a 76-bed facility at 300 West Washington, during a complaint inspection completed March 30.
The problems showed up almost immediately. On March 24, at 11:35 in the morning, inspectors walked through the facility and found folded bed sheets tacked up as makeshift window coverings in rooms W4, W6, and W8. Room W6 had items scattered across the floor. Room W12B was worse: clutter on the shelves and in the corners, a spare bed sitting unmade without any linens, a television set on the floor, and an odor of urine hanging in the room.
Down the hallways, the door facings and walls showed chipped and peeling paint throughout the facility.
Inspectors returned six days later. On the morning of March 30, they looked at the TV room and found baseboard ledges coated with dirt and dust. A box fan had a layer of dirt and dust collected on one side of its guard. The air return vent covers in the walls were bent and caked with dirt buildup.
The explanation came from Housekeeper No. 1, interviewed at 10:39 that morning. There was no scheduled cleaning log, the housekeeper said. No checklist of any kind. Fans got cleaned when residents asked for it. Baseboards got cleaned when staff could get to them.
Nobody had a system. Nobody was tracking what had been cleaned or when.
Six minutes later, the facility's assistant director of nursing acknowledged the window covering situation and said the facility was working on ordering new blinds. That was the response: new blinds were on order.
The inspection cited the facility for failing to provide a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment. CMS rated the level of harm as minimal, meaning inspectors did not find evidence that residents had been physically injured by the conditions. A small number of residents were identified as affected.
But the conditions described are not minor inconveniences. A room that smells of urine, with no clean linens on a spare bed and a television on the floor, is not a homelike environment by any reasonable measure. Vents bent out of shape and thick with dirt are not a detail that gets missed in a well-run facility. They are the result of no one checking, no one logging, no one being responsible for following through.
The housekeeper's account made that plain. Cleaning happened when residents complained or when time allowed. There was no schedule, no documentation, no accountability built into the daily routine. For the 76 people who live at Anadarko Nursing & Rehab, the cleanliness of their home depended on whether they thought to ask.
The assistant director of nursing did not dispute what inspectors found. New blinds, she said, were being ordered.
The sheets remain tacked over the windows in the meantime.
