Homestead Of Clinton

What state inspectors found

2 inspections in the last two years · 2 with findings

In October 2024 state inspectors investigated two complaints at Homestead of Clinton, looking into concerns about abuse and neglect, staffing, medications, call lights, and help with daily activities. They cited the center on one item, and it was not a minor one: for two of the three residents whose falls were reviewed, the center "failed to follow standards of care and to implement interventions after a fall." Each of those two residents - both with dementia - had fallen three times during 2024, and the director of nursing confirmed no interventions had been added to their service plans and that facility policy was not followed. A family member told the surveyor the resident "keeps falling and the center does not seem to be able to prevent the falls." Inspectors identified no actual harm, and none of the other allegations they investigated led to a citation. The center submitted an accepted plan of correction, and on an offsite/paper revisit (no return visit to the building) the state determined on November 26, 2024 that the center was back in substantial compliance.

• Two separate complaints were investigated at the same time in October 2024, covering concerns about abuse and neglect, staffing levels, medication labeling, call lights, and help with daily activities. One deficiency was cited, related to fall management; none of those other allegations resulted in a citation. 10-15-2024
• The surveyors did not just read paperwork - they watched medication being given and stored, watched staff transfer residents, checked staffing levels and how quickly call lights were answered, and interviewed residents, staff, and family members. None of those areas resulted in a citation. 10-15-2024
• The state identified no actual harm to a resident, so it did not recommend penalties against the center at that time. 10-15-2024
• The center submitted a plan of correction that the state accepted - it committed to adding post-fall interventions to care plans, educating staff on post-fall reporting, and running monthly compliance audits. On an offsite/paper revisit on November 26, 2024, the state found the center in substantial compliance, with the correction effective November 1, 2024. 10-15-2024
