($3,000.00) pursuant to §§ 400.474(2)(a) and 400.484 (2)(b), Fla. Stat. (2005), for three cited
State Class II deficiencies.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
1. The Agency has jurisdiction over the Respondent pursuant to Chapter 400, Part IV,
Florida Statutes, (2005).
2. Venue lies pursuant to Fla. Admin. Code R. 28-106.207.
PARTIES
3. The Agency is the enforcing authority with regard to Home Health Agencies pursuant to

health services as required in Section 400.487(1), Fla. Stat.
COUNT I
7. The Agency re-alleges and incorporates paragraph (1) through (6) as if fully set forth
herein.
8. Pursuant to Fla. Admin. Code R. 59A-8.0095(3)(a), (2005), a registered nurse shall be the
case manager in all cases involving nursing or both nursing and therapy care, be responsible for
the clinical record for each patient receiving nursing care and assure that progress reports are
made to the physician for patients receiving nursing services when the patient’s condition
changes or there are deviations from the plan of care.
9. On or about 01/03/06, the Agency conducted a complaint investigation (CCR
#2005009557) at Respondent’s facility.
10. Based on clinical record review and interview, for one of three patients reviewed,
Respondent's nurses failed to assure case management oversight by not conducting ongoing pain
assessments for a patient with deteriorating decubitus ulcers; failed to communicate clinical
findings to the physician and Respondent's administration regarding the inability to carry out
physician's orders for wound care, and; failed to communicate with the Respondent's
administration when it became clear that a patient's nursing care needs could not be met at the
place of residence, an assisted living facility (Patient # 1).
11. Closed record review revealed that Patient # 1 was admitted by the Respondent for
physical therapy per the plan of treatment, dated 07/13/05.
12. A Physician’s Modification Order Confirmation (PMOC), dated 07/20/05 (relative to
wound care), indicated: “Effective 07/21/05, skilled nurse (SN) to visit to assess Decubitus
ulcers R buttock and perform wound care as follows: cleanse wounds on buttocks with normal
saline, pat dry, apply Duoderm once a week for one week, and three times per week for three
weeks.”
13. A Skilled Nursing Clinical Note (SNCN), dated 07/21/05, for the initial nursing
evaluation contained the following documentation pertaining to wound care: “SN assessed vital
signs and integumentary status. Cleansed b/I (? bilateral) buttock wounds with normal saline,
applied Duoderm and secured with Mefix. Lg, st. 3 with necrosis to ri ght, smaller st. 2's to right
and left buttocks.”
14, The assessment did not include temperature measurement as part of vital signs, pain
assessment, or wound care assessment in the form of appearance, color, drainage, and size. No
wound measurements were documented.
15. The section devoted to wound/pressure sores location on the SNCN was not completed.
16. _ In the section of the SNCN denoting communication, nothing was documented that the
nurse communicated the findings of the assessment to a supervisor, in light of the presence of a
stage IIT Decubitus ulcer with necrosis.
17. ASNCN, dated 07/23/05, indicated under "comments:" “Pt. with multiple open wounds,
#1 is 5.5 em x 3 cm x 3 cm with necrotic center.”
18. The wound identification graph was completed, identifying five wounds, four on the
buttocks and one of the right lower extremity posterior calf area.
19. Four of the wounds were identified as follows: Wound # 1 is measured at 5.5 centimeters
(cm) long, 3 cm wide and unknown depth due to necrosis, with a large amount of foul smelling
drainage and indicated that the dressing was urine saturated; Wound # 2, Wound # 3, and Wound
# 4 were measured ranging from 2 to 3.5 cm long, 2 to 3 cm wide, depth of 0.2 cm; all described
the wound bed as red, surrounding tissue as red, all with a moderate amount of red drainage.
20. Under the section, “Progress toward goals/plan,” it was documented that all wounds open
and draining and to continue wound care as indicated.
21. Under the section denoting, “Communications,” nothing was documented that indicated
that the nurse who performed this assessment notified the supervising nurse or physician.
22, ‘There was no evidence that the nurse performed a pain assessment.
23. Review of the patient's medication of 07/13/05, revealed that the patient was taking only
one medication, Depakote. There was no evidence of a medication requirement being
performed.
24, ASNCN, dated 07/25/05, revealed that Wound # 1, "had extended significantly to 9 cm x
4.5 cm necrotic area, 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm open area on top of necrotic area and 2 cm x 2 cm open
area at bottom of necrotic area. Red area to right of necrotic area 2 x 2.cm. Duoderm to left
buttock, back of right leg and under right buttock changed. Pt. was incontinent of urine and
small amount of stool. Changed (adult brief) and ICG (instructed caregiver) to avoid keeping pt.
in any one position longer than one hour."
25. The nursing assessment did not include a temperature measurement or a pain assessment.
26. ‘The patient was designated as confused, forgetful, and incontinent.
27. Under “Communications,” it was noted that a supervisor had been notified.
28. Review of the patient's clinical record did not contain any further indication of care
coordination among the Respondent's staff had been performed to discuss the deterioration in the
patient's wounds.
29. A “Missed Treatment/Visit” document, dated 07/27/05, and completed by a licensed
practical nurse (LPN), indicated that a missed scheduled appointment was due to, “ARNP in
attendance, debriding wounds and doing txs (treatments). Office notified." This procedure was
performed in the ALF and should have been referred for hi gher level care.
30. On the same date, a PMOC specified "effective 07/28/05 SN to visit four times per week
for the current week, and seven times per week for four weeks to perform wound care. Cleanse
wounds on coccyx and right ischium with normal saline or wound cleanser, apply Accuzyme
when available to wounds on right coccyx and right ischium. Cleanse wounds left side of
coccyx with normal saline, pat dry, apply Duoderm, change q 3 days. Goals: wound beds will be
clean and granulation tissue will be evident within 4 weeks without signs/symptoms of
infection."
31. There was no documentation that indicated the patient was seen on 07/28/05.
32. ASNCN, dated 07/29/05, detailed the following, “SN used aseptic technique to perform
wound care to pts. coccyx. Large amt. of foul odor noted, pt. was lying in urine and stool soaked
diaper.” This procedure was performed in the ALF and should have been referred for higher
level care.
33. The “Progress toward goals/plan," indicated that "Wound coccyx necrotic, SN to
continue wound care." This visit note failed to indicate if the wounds were measured following a
debridement on 07/27/05. There was no pain evaluation, and no communication was made with
the supervising physician or nurse. The leg wound was not addressed.
34. ASNCN, dated 07/30/05, indicated under "Comments," “On arrival to pts. home pt. lying
in urine and stool soaked diaper-foul odor from pt. SN removed old Duoderm, large amt. of foul
odor noted. Duoderm applied, Accuzyme not in home. Caregiver stated, “I don’t know when it
will be here.”
35. | Under "Progress Toward Goals/plan," “No change in wound status. SN continue wound
care Accuzyme not in home yet.”
36. The “Communications” section was slashed through, indicating that the supervising
physician or nurse was not contacted regarding the unavailability of Accuzyme, and a pain
assessment was not performed.
37. ASNCN, dated 07/31/05 at 11:30 a.m., revealed that the coccyx wound was measured at
13.5 cm by 7.5 cm. This was the first measurement since the debridement took place on
07/27/05. The note indicated there was a large necrotic area, but was not specified. There was
an old dressing saturated with foul odor drainage. Family has not provided Accuzyme per staff.
38. The “Communications” section was completed stating: "7 p.m. to [doctor], return call by
[doctor], pt. to be sent to hospital."
39. Under “Progress toward goals/plan, “Spoke with [doctor], pt. to be transferred to hospital
today, [ALF employee] at facility notified that pt. must go today per MD orders.” This was the
first documented communication that could be found in the clinical record.
40. The Agency determined that the Respondent had by act, omission, or practice directly
and adversely affected the health, safety, or security of a patient and cited this deficient practice
as a State Class II deficiency.
41. Respondent was provided a mandated correction date of 02/03/06.
WHEREFORE, the Agency intends to impose an administrative fine in the amount of
one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for the State Class II deficiency as authorized under §§
400.484(2)(b) and 400.474(2)(a), Fla. Stat. (2005).
COUNT II
42. The Agency re-alleges and incorporates paragraph (1) through (6) as if fully set forth
herein.
43. Pursuant to Fla. Admin. Code R. 59A-8.0095(6)(b), (2005), in relevant part, the
responsibilities of the physical therapist are:
a. To observe and record activities and findings in the clinical record and
report to the physician the patient’s reaction to treatment and any changes in
patient’s condition, or when there are deviations from the plan of care;
b. To instruct the patient and caregiver in care and use of physical therapy
devices; and
c. To instruct the caregiver on the patient’s total physical therapy program.
44, On or about 01/03/06, the Agency conducted a complaint investigation (CCR
#2005009557) at Respondent’s facility.
45. Based on clinical record review and interview, the Respondent failed to assure that
physical therapy clinical notes accurately reflected the patient's health status; failed to assess the
appropriateness of ongoing physical therapy (PT) services, and failed to assure that physical
therapy visit notes contained relevant patient interventions and patient responses to therapy for
two of three patients reviewed (Patient # 1 and Patient # 2).
46. The Respondent received a referral from an employee of the assisted living facility (ALF)
where Patient # 1 resided, dated 07/07/05, for a PT Evaluation and treat for abnormality of gait,
if necessary.
47, The patient was admitted and evaluated by the Respondent on 07/13/05, six days after
receiving the referral from the ALF, with a principle diagnosis of Physical Therapy NEC (Not
elsewhere classified).
48. On the plan of treatment, Patient #.1, 85 years old, had other pertinent diagnoses listed of
Abnormality of Gait, and Fall NOS (not otherwise specified).
49. Review of the Outcome Assessment and Information Set (OASIS) completed by the
physical therapist revealed the following assessment of the patient’s function by “MO locator”:
a. MO370: Receives assistance from the primary caregiver several times
during day and night.
b. MO380: The type of primary caregiver assistance includes: ADL
assistance (bathing, dressing, toileting, bowel/bladder, eating/feeding);
IADL assistance (meds, meals, housekeeping, laundry, etc.);
environmental support, psychosocial support; advocates or facilitates
patient’s participation in appropriate medical care; financial agent; health
care agent.
c. MO410: Minimal difficulty in expressing ideas and needs.
d. M0440: Pt has no skin lesion or open wound.
e. MO520: No urinary incontinence or urinary catheter
f. MO530: (When does urinary incontinence occur?) Timed-voiding defers
incontinence.
g. MOS40: Very rarely or never has bowel incontinence.
h. MO560: Requires assistance and some direction in specific situations.
i. MO610: (Behaviors Demonstrated at least once a week?) Is marked “2”
indicating impaired decision making; failure to perform usual ADL’s or
IADLS, inability to appropriately stop activities, jeopardizes safety
through action. Then, “7” is also marked, indicating that none of the
above behaviors demonstrated, contradicting the above response.
50. Review of the PT Evaluation, dated 07/13/05, revealed under comments: “Patient
informed of start of care/duration/frequency, goals and discharge plans. Pt. fell last night.
Tripped over (? illegible) with laceration to right buttocks.”
51. This contradicts the OASIS assessment finding under MO440, indicating no skin lesion
or open wound.
52. As aresult of the PT assessment, the following orders for PT were obtained: "PT to visit
three times per week for four weeks, as reflected on the POT to perform therapeutic exercises,
instruct in transfer training, gait training with assistive device, establish and instruct in home
exercise program, perform pulmonary physical therapy."
53. Further review of the subsequent clinical visit notes revealed that the PT visits on July 15,
16, 18, 19, 23, 29 and 30, were conducted by a physical therapy assistant (PTA), who made no
further mention of the buttocks laceration, or any reference to the worsening wounds and
positioning needs of the patient as a response to the decubitus ulcers, or coordination of care with
skilled nursing.
54. This documentation was all but illegible on many of the notes, especially under
“Patient/Caregiver Instruction” and “Patient/Caregiver Response to Instruction” sections of the
notes.
55. The PT saw the patient on 07/27/05. Review of these notes, compared with the skilled
nursing notes revealed incongruence in patient assessment, and failed to acknowledge the
patient’s functional and cognitive decline as the certification period progressed.
56. Interview with the Administrator on 01/03/06 confirmed the observations.
57. Clinical record review of three successive admissions of Patient # 2. revealed that the
patient, an 87 year old resident of an assisted living facility, received physical therapy on three
admissions for certification episodes 08/20/2005 through 09/22/2005 (nursing care for a skin tear
and physical therapy), 10/04/2005 through 11/30/2005 (physical therapy and urinary tract
infection), and 12/13/2005 to present, per the OASIS assessments of the above dates.
58. The comprehensive adult nursing assessment with OASIS elements, dated 10/04/05 and
12/13/05, for the second and third admissions revealed the following observations:
a. M0220: Conditions prior to medical or treatment regimen change:
Urinary incontinence, impaired decision making and memory loss to the
extent that supervision is required.
b. M0290: High Risk Factors: Obesity
c. MO410: Speech/Oral Expression: Expresses simple ideas or needs with
moderate difficulty.
d. M0520, 530, and 540: Genitourinary: the patient is incontinent of urine
during the day and night, and is incontinent of bowel daily.
e. MO560: Neuro/Emotional/Behavior Status: Requires considerable
assistance in routine situations. Is not alert and oriented or is unable to
shift attention and recall directions more than half the time.
f. Locator # 19 indicates the patient is disoriented.
g. MOS570 Patient is constantly confused.
h. MO580 Patient is anxious daily but not constantly.
i, MO610 indicates that 1) Memory deficit: failure to recognize familiar
persons/places, inability to recall events of past 24 hours, significant
memory loss so that supervision is required; and 2) impaired decision-
making: failure to perform usual ADL 's or Idles, inability to
appropriately stop activities, jeopardizes safety through action.
j. Locator # 188 indicated that "activities permitted: wheelchair, up with
caution."
k. Additional notes on skilled care provided this visit: "SN assessed pt.
Instructed patient on safety-poor attention span-pt. confused..."
59. Review of the two discharge OASIS assessments conducted by the physical
therapist, dated 09/22/05 and 12/02/05, revealed the following contradictions with the
initial comprehensive nursing assessment:
a. M0220: Conditions prior to medical or treatment regimen change: None
of the above, (The nurse assessed pt. with urinary incontinence, impaired
decision making and memory loss to the extent that supervision is
required.)
b. M0290: High Risk Factors: None of the above. (Nurse marked Obesity)
c. MO410: Speech/Oral Expression: “0”-Expresses complex ideas, feelings,
and needs clearly, completely, and easily in all situations with no
observable impairment (Nurse marked #2, Expresses simple ideas or needs
with moderate difficulty.)
d. MO520, 530, and 540: Genitourinary: The physical therapist identified the
patient as having no urinary incontinence; timed voiding defers
incontinence, and very rarely or never has bowel incontinence. (Nursing
identified that the patient is incontinent of urine during the day and night,
and is incontinent of bowel daily.)
e. MO560: Neuro/Emotional/Behavior Status: The physical therapist
indicated “O”-alert and oriented, able to focus and shift attention,
comprehends and recalls task directions independently. (The nurse:
Requires considerable assistance in routine situations. Is not alert and
oriented or is unable to shift attention and recall directions more than half
the time.
f. MO570 “0”-The patient is never confused. (Nurse: Patient is constantly
confused)
g. MO580 “0”-The patient is anxious none of the time. (Nurse: Patient is
anxious daily but not constantly.)
h. MO610 “0”-No behaviors are demonstrated at least once a week, reported
or observed. (Nurse: indicates that 1) Memory deficit: failure to recognize
familiar persons/places, inability to recall events of past 24 hours,
significant memory loss so that supervision is required; and 2) impaired
decision-making: failure to perform usual ADL 's or Idles, inability to
appropriately stop activities, jeopardizes safety through action.
60. The discharge OASIS completed by the physical therapist made the same contradictory
assessments of the patient as above on both discharges on 10/04/05 and 12/13/05.
61. Further review of the physical therapy evaluations and treatment episodes revealed that
each re-admission took place less than two weeks after the patient was discharged from the home
health agency after receiving physical therapy.
62. Review of the discharge summaries, dated 09/22/05 and 11/30/05, documented that
patient-centered goals were achieved.
63. A third referral from the ALF, dated 12/12/05, revealed that the patient fell, and was
requesting another round of physical therapy.
64. | The comprehensive adult nursing assessment with OASIS elements, dated 10/04/05 and
12/13/05, for the second and third admissions revealed the following observations:
a. Risk Factors: Obesity
b. MO520, 530, and 540: Genitourinary: the patient is incontinent of urine
during the day and night, and is incontinent of bowel daily.
c. M0560: Neuro/Emotional/Behavior Status: Requires considerable
assistance in routine situations. Is not alert and oriented or is unable to
shift attention and recall directions more than half the time.
d. Locator # 19 indicates the patient is disoriented,
e. MO570 Patient is constantly confused
f M0610 indicates that 1) Memory deficit: failure to recognize familiar
persons/places, inability to recall events of past 24 hours, significant
memory loss so that supervision is required; and 2) impaired decision-
making: failure to perform usual ADL 's or IADL's, inability to
appropriately stop activities, jeopardizes safety through action.
g. Locator # 188 indicated that "activities permitted: wheelchair, up with
caution."
65. ‘In view of the above level of cognitive and physical functioning, upon the third
referral from an employee of the ALF, the Respondent failed to determine if the patient's
fall was due to lack of supervision/confusion, rather than weakness, a chronic condition
of the wheelchair bound patient.
66. ‘In the two prior admissions, physical therapy notes consistently documented that
the caregiver (ALF staff) was educated on the home exercise program.
67. Review of the PT evaluation, dated 12/13/05, failed to discover an evaluation of
the implementation of the home exercise program by ALF staff.
68. An interview with the Director of Nursing (DON), revealed that if an assisted living
facility requests a PT evaluation, PT should be done in accordance with that evaluation.
69. The Agency determined that the Respondent had by act, omission, or practice directly
and/or adversely affected the health, safety, or security of a patient and cited this deficient
practice as a State Class II deficiency.
70. Respondent was provided a mandated correction date of 02/03/06.
WHEREFORE, the Agency intends to impose an administrative fine in the amount of
one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for the State Class II deficiency as authorized under §§
400.484(2)(b) and 400.474(2)(a), Fla. Stat. (2005).
COUNT III
71. The Agency re-alleges and incorporates paragraph (1) through (6) as if fully set forth
herein.
72. Pursuant to Fla. Admin. Code R. 59A-8.020(1), when a home health agency accepts a
patient or client for service, there shall be a reasonable expectation that the services can be
provided safely to the patient or client in the client's place of residence. This includes being able
to communicate with the patient, or with another person designated by the patient, either through
a staff person or interpreter that speaks the same language, or through teclmology that translates
so that the services can be provided. The responsibility of the agency is also to assure that the
patient or client receives services as defined in a specific plan of care, for those patients
receiving care under a physician’s treatment orders, or in a written agreement, for clients
receiving care without a physician’s orders. This responsibility includes assuring the patient
receives all assigned visits.
73. On or about 01/03/06, the Agency conducted a complaint investigation (CCR
#2005009557) at Respondent’s facility.
74. Based on clinical record review and interview, the Respondent failed to inform the
physician that home care intervention could not meet the patient's nursing and medical needs
relative to decubitus ulcer care needs in the patient's current place of residence, an ALF, for one
of three patient records reviewed (Patient # 1); and repeatedly admitted a resident of an ALF for
successive physical therapy episodes when the efficacy of further therapy was not evident
(Patient # 2).
75. Clinical record review of Patient # 1 revealed that the Respondent received a referral,
dated 07/07/05, from an employee of the assisted living facility where the patient resided for PT
evaluation, and treat for abnormality of gait.
76. The patient was admitted and evaluated by the Respondent on 07/13/05, six days after
receiving the referral from the ALF, per the Home Health Certification and Plan of Treatment
(POT) dated 07/13/05, with a principle diagnosis of Physical Therapy NEC (Not elsewhere
classified).
77. Other pertinent diagnoses were listed as Abnormality of Gait, and Fall NOS (not
otherwise specified).
7B. The Physical Therapy Initial Evaluation included documentation that the “....Pt. fell last
night. Tripped over (? illegible) with laceration to right buttocks.”
79. There was no information in the clinical record that the physical therapist informed the
Respondent's care supervisors that the patient had a buttocks laceration for coordination of care
purposes, and to determine if a nurse should evaluate the patient for wound care.
80. The agency received another referral from a nurse practitioner, on 07/20/05, for Patient #
1, for “wound care, stage III right buttock, stage I right buttock.”
81. Review of a SNCN, dated 07/21/05, for the initial nursing evaluation contained the
following documentation pertaining to wound care: “SN assessed vital signs and integumentary
status. Cleansed b/l (? bilateral) buttock wounds with normal saline, applied Duoderm and
secured with Mefix. Lg. st.'3 with necrosis to right, smaller st. 2’s to right and left buttocks.”
82. In the space devoted to wound/pressure sores on the Skilled Nurse Clinical Note, where
the nurse is instructed to, “Denote location of wound/pressure sores”, the section was not
completed in any way.
83. Further, in the section denoting communication, nothing was documented that the nurse
communicated the findings of the assessment to a supervisor, in light of the presence of a stage
IL decubitus ulcer with necrosis in a patient who resides in an ALF.
84. On the next SNCN, dated 07/23/05, the following was documented: “Pt. with multiple
open wounds, #1 is 5.5 cm x 3 cm x 3 cm with necrotic center. All wounds cleansed with
normal saline, pat dry, Duoderm applied, secured with Mefix. Instructed caregivers on
repositioning and keeping dressing clean, dry and intact. Caregivers receptive to care. Wound
#1 waiting a response from (ARNP) for debridement.”
85. | The wound identification graph was completed, which identified five wounds, four on the
butiocks and one of the right lower extremity posterior calf area.
86. Four of the wounds were identified as follows: Wound # 1 is measured at 5.5 centimeters
(cm) long, 3 cm wide, and unknown depth due to necrosis, with a large amount of foul smelling
drainage and indicated that the dressing was urine saturated; Wound # 2, Wound # 3, and
Wound # 4 were measured ranging from 2 to 3.5 cm long, 2 to 3 cm wide, depth of 0.2 cm. All
wounds were described as the wound bed being red with the surrounding tissue as red and all had
a moderate amt. of red drainage.
87. Under the section “Progress toward goals/plan” the nurse documented that all wounds
open and draining, continue wound care as indicated.
88. Under the section denoting “Communications” nothing was documented that indicated
that the nurse who performed this assessment notified the supervising nurse or physician.
89. There was no evidence that the nurse performed a pain assessment, and review of the
medication regimen review (07/13/05) revealed that the patient was taking only one medication;
Depakote.
90. A SNCN, dated 07/25/05, revealed that the right buttock wound extended to “9 cm x 4.5
cm necrotic area. 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm open area on top of necrotic area and 2 cm x 2 cm open area
at bottom of necrotic area. Red area to right of necrotic area 2 x 2 cm....Pt. was incontinent of
urine and small amount of stool. Changed Depends. Instructed caregiver to avoid keeping pt. in
any one position longer than one hour. Verbalizes understanding.” Appearance of the other four
wounds was not mentioned. The nurse had marked that the supervisor was notified, but there
was no pain assessment and temperature had not been taken.
91. | There was no other documentation in the record regarding the outcome of the
communication with the supervisor.
