WEBVTT 00:00:00.050 --> 00:00:19.650 Go ahead and call the meeting to order. It's the Nursing Home Center Committee. This is May 14th, Thursday at 630. And is somebody going to do the prayer? I can do it. 00:00:21.490 --> 00:00:31.130 Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for your guidance and blessings this evening. Please keep everyone safe with the weather you are experiencing today and into the evening. 00:00:31.130 --> 00:00:33.830 We've prayed for a rain and we sure are getting it. 00:00:34.210 --> 00:00:37.130 This will help the farmers with their crops. 00:00:37.690 --> 00:00:38.830 In Jesus' name, amen. 00:00:39.830 --> 00:00:42.200 I pledge allegiance. 00:00:45.300 --> 00:00:49.700 I pledge allegiance to the United States of America, 00:00:49.700 --> 00:00:53.740 and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, 00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:57.880 under the love of indivisible, unlippable, and just as a whole. 00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:09.510 So, the agenda, there is a correction on that, so I don't know how you guys want to do that. 00:01:10.470 --> 00:01:19.170 The census was 80, and it was said last month, but in the minutes, it's 74. 00:01:20.650 --> 00:01:26.490 Well, if you want, we should approve the agenda, and then when you get to the minutes, we can see if there's something. 00:01:26.590 --> 00:01:30.470 Do I have a motion to approve the agenda, Mrs. Baker? 00:01:31.310 --> 00:01:43.850 Second, Mr. Hadley. All in favor, say aye. Opposed, say aye. And motion carries. And then with the correction. 00:01:45.590 --> 00:01:51.250 I have to say a point of information. It's probably going to be different every single time I come compared to the report that I sent. 00:01:51.250 --> 00:01:56.970 Because it's different tonight than the report that I sent. So I don't know how much that matters to you guys. 00:01:57.110 --> 00:02:01.210 Because that's what I have. No, I just listen to the committee. 00:02:01.310 --> 00:02:02.510 and leave it like it is. 00:02:02.830 --> 00:02:04.850 And I said 80 last month. 00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:06.270 It was 80 when I came. 00:02:06.270 --> 00:02:11.710 But when I sent you guys the report, the report said to me in two days prior to go out with packet. 00:02:12.150 --> 00:02:12.490 Okay. 00:02:12.690 --> 00:02:20.090 So there's usually a change between what's reported at the committee and what's in the packet is what she's, you know. 00:02:20.590 --> 00:02:22.210 So it's okay then to. 00:02:22.670 --> 00:02:22.990 Yeah. 00:02:23.230 --> 00:02:24.030 I'm assuming. 00:02:24.390 --> 00:02:24.870 That way. 00:02:24.990 --> 00:02:25.250 Okay. 00:02:25.490 --> 00:02:25.770 All right. 00:02:25.790 --> 00:02:26.290 That's fine. 00:02:26.290 --> 00:02:49.510 Okay. And we'll go into review and approval of the meeting minutes for May 14, 2026. Motion to approve. Do I have a motion to approve? Mr. Snaker, Mr. Hadley, second. All in favor, say aye. Opposed, same, same. Motion carries. Approval of the claims. Do I have a motion to approve the claims? 00:02:49.510 --> 00:03:07.290 is on the floor, okay, tax requirement is $161, manual is zero, total is $161, motion to approve. 00:03:07.290 --> 00:03:08.290 Second. 00:03:08.290 --> 00:03:13.590 Mr. Hadley, we'll do the claims, all in favor, say aye. 00:03:13.590 --> 00:03:14.590 Aye. 00:03:14.590 --> 00:03:16.330 We'll save science, and we'll show you, Kathy. 00:03:23.700 --> 00:03:25.740 And there was probably comments tonight. 00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:32.080 And I report from the committee. 00:03:33.220 --> 00:03:33.580 Monica. 00:03:33.860 --> 00:03:34.060 Okay. 00:03:34.420 --> 00:03:36.500 Again, something has changed since my report. 00:03:36.820 --> 00:03:39.580 It was 75 on my report at 78 today. 00:03:43.020 --> 00:03:46.580 All the POCs for annual life safety are submitted. 00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:50.540 Again, the facility continues to monitor staffing levels. 00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.280 We did have to start using ADT again the last couple weeks 00:03:53.280 --> 00:04:21.220 because we added a few CNAs. So until we hire them from the community, we will have to use a couple agency CNAs to keep that staffing ratio. So there was about 45 to 48 hours the last two weeks of agencies. Just a couple shifts. And then this is not on my report, but I thought it was exciting that we're opening our nursing department even further for even more acute patients. 00:04:21.220 --> 00:04:53.280 we're going to start training on TPN, CPT vests, and LVAD wires so we've already done the training for LVAD wires so CPT vests are the vests that like you wear when you can't cough your mucus up and it shakes it so it comes up on its own LVAD wires are a wire that's inserted right below your heart and it helps your blood pump oxygen through your body and then TPN is total parenteral nutrition and it's an IV of like what 00:04:53.280 --> 00:04:57.840 a two-way is, but it's through an IV when you have problems that it can't pass through your digestive 00:04:57.840 --> 00:05:05.340 system at all. So we're looking into all of those, and I think that's exciting. Yeah. 00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:13.240 Otherwise, that's all I have. Did I see something where the CNN week starts? 00:05:13.880 --> 00:05:19.580 Oh, I'm so sorry. Yes, CNN week starts today. What's that entail? It's where we celebrate our 00:05:19.580 --> 00:05:49.470 CNAs. We'll do different activities every day for the next week. Okay. Isn't Lena doing that? Serenity over there is by the same people, isn't it? Each facility is responsible for their own activities. Gotcha. Gotcha. All right. Thank you. And old business is done, new business adjournment. Wait one minute. 00:05:49.470 --> 00:06:19.450 Oh, yes. There was a fine. Yes. Can we discuss that? Sure. So we got a G-TAG, which results in a monetary fine. A resident fractured her hip back in March, and then I reported to State, of course, and then we had an employee that I had to terminate, unfortunately, and she was upset by her termination, so she called State, and they, she 00:06:19.450 --> 00:06:28.950 She called them on short staffing, and she reported this incident, and they came in to investigate, and because the woman suffered a fracture, we ended up with a tag and a sign. 00:06:30.590 --> 00:06:32.710 Okay, so how is that going to be handled? 00:06:33.810 --> 00:06:49.130 It's already handled. I've already submitted the plan of correction. Well, we did the plan of correction right away when we got the tag, because you did the plan of correction immediately, where the entire staff, including therapy, got training on gay belt usage and transfer status and ambulation with residents. 00:06:49.450 --> 00:07:16.530 And then what else? We did competencies on the gatebelt usage and transferring as well. And it's being monitored multiple times a day to make sure that every staff member has all their equipment and staff that doesn't have equipment is giving it to them. Like if they come without it, we have experts to make sure everybody has one. And then when you get the fine, what happens is you have to submit the POC again. So that's what I was doing this week because I was submitting it again. So it's like you do it twice. 00:07:16.530 --> 00:07:25.270 Okay, so we were notified on Monday, the county, since the license is in our name, they notified us, so as far as the payment's concerned, how is that being handled with Serenity? 00:07:25.270 --> 00:07:25.930 Serenity is based 00:07:25.930 --> 00:07:40.090 Okay, but are they going to, because I think there's a 35% reduction if it's done within 10 business days, and I think we as a county need to respond to that, is that not correct? 00:07:40.250 --> 00:07:40.750 I already did 00:07:40.750 --> 00:07:51.430 You already did? Okay. All right. So is Serenity paying IDPH directly or are they paying the county and the county's paying IDPH? How is that process? 00:07:51.570 --> 00:07:52.390 They'll pay IDPH. 00:07:52.770 --> 00:07:56.490 Okay. All right. Thank you. 00:07:56.590 --> 00:07:57.570 How much is the fine? 00:07:57.570 --> 00:08:04.170 It was $25,000, but with the reduction, you take like 34% off, which equaled like $16,000 something. 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:15.790 That's all I have. Thank you. 00:08:16.450 --> 00:08:34.430 that was just that could have been under the report. So there is no new business. Do I have 00:08:34.430 --> 00:08:45.970 a motion to adjourn? Mr. Bush? All in favor? Aye. Thank you for your time. Our next meeting 00:08:45.970 --> 00:08:47.890 will be July 9th at 6.30.
