What these words mean3
Star ratings
CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System.
Inspection (survey)
A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
Deficiency, citation, violation
What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.

  • Dialysis Emergency Equipment

    The inspectors’ words, 767 words

    “Dialysis Emergency Equipment CFR(s): §494.62(b)(9) Condition for Coverage: [(b) Policies and procedures. The dialysis facility must develop and implement emergency preparedness policies and procedures, based on the emergency plan set forth in paragraph (a) of this section, risk assessment at paragraph (a)(1) of this section, and the communication plan at paragraph (c) of this section. The policies and procedures must be reviewed and updated at least every 2 years. At a minimum, the policies and procedures must address the following:] (9) A process by which the staff can confirm that emergency equipment, including, but not limited to, oxygen, airways, suction, defibrillator or automated external defibrillator, artificial resuscitator, and emergency drugs, are on the premises at all times and immediately available. This Standard is not met as evidenced by: 40430 Based on policy review, observation, and interview, the facility does not ensure staff follow the facility process for verification of emergency equipment. This has the potential to cause a delay in responding to a medical emergency and/or lead to an adverse patient outcome. Findings Include: Review on 06/14/24 of policy “Emergency Medications, Equipment, and Supplies”, dated 05/01/23, revealed the emergency cart (crash cart-contains emergency equipment and medications for medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest) must be locked when not in use, checked monthly or after use for contents, expiration dates, cleanliness, proper functioning of all equipment, and be equipped with a dedicated oxygen tank. Staff must check the pressure gauge on the oxygen cylinder weekly. The emergency evacuation box (a box that contains supplies primarily needed to emergently remove needles, cap catheters, and provide saline, as needed, for every licensed station, once the patient is in a secure location in the event of facility evacuation) must contain all patient and staff emergency contact information and be checked monthly or after use for contents, expiration dates and cleanliness. An itemized log for the emergency cart and evacuation box must be kept indicating contents and expiration dates of contents. Items approaching expiration must be reordered and replaced prior to the actual expiration date. Observation on 06/12/24 at 10:55 AM revealed the emergency cart was not locked. An itemized log of contents located on top of the emergency cart was dated 05/03/23. There was no documented monthly check of contents from June 2023 until May 2024. Interview on 06/12/24 at 11:10 AM, Staff (L), Registered Nurse verified the findings and stated the automatic external defibrillator (AED- used to monitor heart rates and treat cardiac arrest) on the emergency cart was checked daily to confirm the green check mark, indicating power, and that defibrillator pads were available and not expired. Staff (L) stated that verification of the log of contents was signed off electronically on the facility computer system (TMS- The Maintenance System) dashboard. Observation and interview on 06/12/24 at 01:30 PM, Staff (L) and Staff (K), Registered Nurses stated emergency cart and evacuation box checks are signed off on the computer system (TMS) dashboard when it lights up red on the screen, indicating the checks are required to be completed. Staff (L) brought up the dashboard screen with emergency code cart and medication checklist (monthly) highlighted red dated 05/03/23. Staff (L) and Staff (K) verified the emergency cart check was highlighted red and overdue, with the last sign off date as 05/03/23. Staff (L) then brought emergency evacuation box contents log (quarterly) up on the screen with last sign off date of 01/17/24. Staff (L) and Staff (K) stated the emergency evacuation box check was not required to be completed because it was not highlighted red, it was still white in color indicating it was not due to be completed/signed off. They stated staff are alerted to tasks requiring completion when they are highlighted red. When the task is not highlighted red it indicates the task/check was not due. Observation on 06/12/24 at 01:55 PM, revealed the emergency evacuation box was stored in the back nursing station. The evacuation box lacked all patient and staff emergency contact information and an itemized log of contents with expiration dates of the contents. The evacuation box contained expired supplies including: three corroded AA batteries, contained in ziplock bag, with an expiration date of 03/2023; six intravenous administration sets/lines with an expiration date of 03/31/2022; one liter bag of normal saline (intravenous solution for fluid and electrolyte replacement) expiration date 12/2022; two chlora-prep single swab sticks (antiseptic solution used to cleanse skin) expiration date 04/2021; and three chloral-prep single swab sticks expiration date 06/2021. Staff (L), Registered Nurse verified the findings. Interview on 06/12/24 at 02:33 PM with Staff (B), Nurse Manager verified these findings.”

There was no documentation in the medical record to indicate why the blood flow rate was not maintained.
