Tennessee health officials have ordered a nursing home to stop taking new residents and pay a $6,100 fine for violations.
A Tennessee Department of Health news release Monday says Creekside Health and Rehabilitation in Madison faces the penalties for problems with administering medication, performance improvement and nursing services.
Officials cited the conditions found at the 139-bed nursing home during a complaint survey Oct. 11 through Oct. 24.
The department says the order to suspend admissions won’t be lifted until conditions are corrected. The suspension took effect Nov. 9.
The nursing home can request a hearing on the matter before the Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities or an administrative judge.
