ALLEGATION:
Residents health needs are somewhat neglected.
INVESTIGATION:
On 07/16/2013 the licensee, Johnny Carson, was interviewed. He was not aware of
any of the residents having any medical issues that required follow-care. He stated
all the residents had recent physical examinations and were scheduled for
medication reviews on 07/26/2013.
On 07/16/2013 the home manager, Lajuana Davis, was interviewed. She indicted
that none of the residents were on special diets due to health problems. Everyone
was on a regular diet.
On 07/16/2013 Residents A-F were interviewed. They each reported receiving
annual physical exams and stated staff take them to all their medical appointments.
2
No one reported having missed any appointments or having ongoing medical
problems they needed to see a doctor for.
On 07/16/2013 Residents A-I health care appraisals were reviewed. Special diets
were recommended for seven of the residents. Four of the residents were
diagnosed with hypertension and the doctor recommended a low salt diet. A low
fat/low cholesterol diet was recommended for three of the residents. Ms. Davis
stated she was not of aware of this. It was suggested that she review the health
care appraisals and she was given suggestions on how to accommodate the diets.
An exit conference was held with Mr. Carson. He stated that he would ensure that
the special diets are implemented and adhered to.
APPLICABLE RULE
R 400.14310
Resident health care.
ANALYSIS:
CONCLUSION:
(1) A licensee, with a resident's cooperation, shall follow the
instructions and recommendations of a resident's physician or
other health care professional with regard to such items as any
of the following:
(a) Medications.
(b) Special diets.
(c) Susceptibility to hyperthermia and hypothermia and
related limitations for physical activity, as appropriate.
(d) Other resident health care needs that can be provided in
the home. The refusal to follow the instructions and
recommendations shall be recorded in the resident's record.
The allegations are confirmed. Special diets were
recommended for seven of the nine residents by their doctor.
Mr. Carson and Ms. Davis were not aware of the diets, although
they were documented of the residents’ health care appraisals;
therefore they were not being implemented.
VIOLATION ESTABLISHED

RECOMMENDATION
Upon receipt of an acceptable corrective action plan, I recommend the status of the
