Health & Safety Violations

From Nov. 16 - 17, 2011, the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration conducted a survey of A Woman's World Medical Center. Below is a list of deficiencies found at the time of the visit:

1. The clinic did not ensure that their license was displayed in a conspicuous place within the premises where it could be viewed by patients. The license was in fact noted to be in a frame on the wall; above eye-level; over the counter area; and facing the reception desk and not the lobby or patients approaching the reception window. Candace Dye stated that the license had always been in that location. She stated that they could not put their license in the lobby as it could be stolen or destroyed. This was a breach of Chapter 59A-9.020(4), F.A.C.
2. The clinic did not meet minimum requirements when providing second trimester abortions, specifically related to providing adequate privacy in the consultation room. The consultation room was nothing more than a desk located behind the reception desk. In this area, vitals and weight are obtained, an Rh test is conducted; and procedures are discussed. The two desks are separated by two six-foot tall shelves. This was a breach of Chapter 59A-9.022, F.A.C.
3. The clinic did not ensure the provision of all essential supplies and equipment; a breach of Chapter 59A-9.0225(1), F.A.C.These included the following:
   1. A portable oxygen tank in the surgery room, containing a sticker dated 03/10/2010. Dye confirmed that the tank was overdue to be checked. She stated that there were no backup oxygen tanks.
   2. Resuscitation bags were labeled as being last checked on 10/28/2009.
   3. The oxygen tank and resuscitation bags were not located in the equipment maintenance section of the facility's policy and procedure manual which was developed on 10/10/2009.
