The damage traced back to a June flood that sent several inches of water flowing under the dialysis unit door. Six months later, gray floor panels measuring 30 inches long were still missing chunks or peeling at the edges, exposing the subfloor beneath.
Dialysis RN #841 told inspectors she had been asking for months to get the floor fixed, worried residents would trip on the uneven surfaces. "The floor panels were never installed correctly since installed and after the flood back in June the tiles lifting and cracking from the floor got worse," she said.
The unit also carried a persistent foul odor from resident body waste flowing through dialysis machines into floor drains. "A dialysis unit should not have an odor of body waste," the nurse said. Multiple drain cleanings had failed to eliminate the smell.
Restoration Contractor #845 said his company recommended closing the dialysis unit for proper restoration after the flood. The facility refused, telling him they couldn't shut down the unit. Management promised a flooring company would arrive the following Monday to replace the floor.
That replacement never happened.
Elsewhere in the facility, inspectors found an infection control office with over half the ceiling covered in dark brown water stains from roof leaks. In a resident room, a privacy curtain displayed a three-foot area of dark purplish brown staining that appeared to be dried blood or feces.
A plastic door protector hung loose with a sharp corner jutting into the doorway entrance. CNA #404 said residents' wheelchairs kept catching on the protector, pulling it loose and creating an injury hazard.
By the end of the inspection, the door was finally secured with screws.
