System" (a system that tracks a person using a
wrist or ankle bracelet which automatically
alarms if the person moves outside a defined
area) for one of seven doors (Door 8) in the
residents' direct proximity (closeness) that
opened to the outside. Resident 1 left the
facility undetected on 4/29/19 and was found in
the bushes in front of the facility parking lot.
Resident 1 was returned to the facility by a
family representative at 1 a.m. on 4/30/19.
This failure resulted in the delay in identification
of the system malfunction and exposed four of
four residents in the facility with wander
management monitoring device (sensing tags)
to risk of serious harm. It was determined to
constitute an Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation.
The Administrator was verbally notified of the IJ
on 5/9/19 at 8:04 p.m. The facility failed to
ensure a fully functioning Wander guard alert
system was maintained.
Through observations and interviews with the
staff members and record reviews of the
facility's training records, the facility showed
they initiated the plan of action through training
of employees regarding Wander guard alert
system monitoring. The facility replaced the
nonfunctioning Wander guard alert door
monitor at Door 8. The IJ was lifted on 5/9/19 at
10:30 p.m..
Findings:
Review of Resident 1's undated "Face Sheet"
showed Resident 1 was admitted to the facility
on 3/14/19.
Review of "Minimal Data Set" (MDS- an
assessment tool used to guide care) dated
3/21/19 showed Resident 1 with diagnosis that
