Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to conduct a thorough investigation of an allegation of abuse
that occurred between Residents 1 and 2 on 1/18/2025 per the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled,
Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation, by failing to obtain a statement/information from Resident 3 who identified
herself as a witness.
Residents Affected - Few

on [DATE] with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy and dementia (a progressive state of decline
of mental abilities.)
During a review of Resident 2's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 2 had severely impaired
cognition and required substantial or maximum assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for
toileting and bathing.
During a review of Resident 3's AR, the AR indicated Resident 3 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including type 2 diabetes and immunodeficiency (decreased ability of the body to fight infections

The investigation of alleged abuse, neglect and exploitation B. Written procedures for investigations include:
4. Identifying and interviewing all involved persons, including the alleged victim, alleged perpetrator,

interview additional people including Resident 3 and stated a complete investigation had been made.

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive Care Plan (CP document created to identify a patient's needs) in a timely manner to address wandering into resident
rooms for one of seven sampled residents (Resident 2).
This deficient practice had the potential to leave Resident 2's wandering behavior unaddressed and
potentially affecting the safety of Resident 2, other facility residents, and their families.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, (AR), the AR indicated Resident 2 was admitted on
[DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy (damage or disease
that affects the brain) and dementia (a progressive state of decline of mental abilities.)
During a review of Resident 2's Elopement Risk, (ER) dated 1/8/2025, the ER indicated Resident 2 had
goal directed wandering behavior.
During a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set, (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 1/13/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident 2 had severe cognitive impairment (ability to think, reason, plan) and required
substantial or maximum assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for toileting and bathing.
During a review of Resident 2's Progress Notes, (PN) dated 1/15/2025 at 2:52 AM, the PN indicated
Resident 2 had been wandering in and out of residents' rooms and was aggressive when staff attempted to
redirect Resident 2.
During a review of Resident 5's AR, the AR indicated Resident 5 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses
including acute respiratory failure (occurs when the lungs cannot release enough oxygen into the blood)
and immunodeficiency (decreased ability of the body to fight infections and other diseases.)
During a review of Resident 5's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 5 had intact cognition and
required maximal assistance (helper does more than half of the effort) for toileting and bathing.
During an interview on 1/30/2025 at 3:09 PM with Resident 5, Resident 5 stated Resident 2 started
entering Resident 5's room about two weeks prior. Resident 5 stated the facility staff (unidentified) was
aware of Resident 2's wandering and behavior of entering other residents' rooms. Resident 5 stated, staff
(in general) stated they could not do anything about Resident 2 entering other residents' rooms because
Resident 2 had dementia. Resident 5 stated, Resident 5 felt it was unsafe because Resident 2 had entered
Resident 5's room often and Resident 5 felt the need to protect Resident 5's non-verbal roommates who
could not speak for themselves.
During a review of Resident 6's AR, the AR indicated Resident 6 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses
including dementia and functional quadriplegia (the complete inability to move due to severe disability.)

Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Residents Affected - Few
During a review of Resident 6's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 6 had severely impaired
cognitive skills for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 6 was dependent (helper does all of
the effort) from staff for toileting, hygiene and bathing.
During an interview on 1/31/2025 at 11:16 AM with Resident 6's Family Member 2 (FM 2), FM 2 stated FM
2 was startled on 1/17/2025 when Resident 2 hit FM 2 on the shoulder without provocation in the resident's
hallway. FM 2 stated Resident 2 entered another resident's room afterwards and staff redirected Resident 2
back to Resident 2's room. FM 2 stated the facility staff was aware of Resident 2's wandering behavior but
did not address the problem timely because Resident 2 continued to enter other people's rooms before
staff intervention.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/31/2025 at 1:00 PM with the facility's Director of
Nursing (DON), Resident 2's CP for risk for elopement/ wandering dated 1/21/2025 was reviewed. The
DON stated a CP to address Resident 2's risk for elopement/wandering should have been created on
admission. The DON stated, if staff observed a resident's behavior of wandering into other residents'
rooms, a CP should be created or an existing CP should be updated. The DON stated Resident 2's existing
CP should have been updated when the staff implemented close monitoring before the one-to-one
monitoring was implemented.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Accidents and Supervision, dated 2022,
the P&P indicated under 3. Implementation of interventions - using specific interventions to try to reduce a
resident's risk from hazards in the environment. The process includes d. Documenting interventions (e.g.
care plans for the individual resident.)

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to accurately document in the resident's clinical record when
close monitoring and one-to-one supervision was implemented for one of seven sampled residents
(Resident 2.)
This failure had the potential to result in inconsistency of care for Resident 2.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, (AR), the AR indicated Resident 2 was admitted on
[DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy (damage or disease
that affects the brain) and dementia (a progressive state of decline of mental abilities.)
During a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set, (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 1/13/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident 2 had severe cognitive impairment (ability to think, reason, plan) and required
substantial or maximum assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for toileting and bathing.
During an interview on 1/31/2025 at 1:00 PM with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated a
sitter was provided for one-to-one monitoring for Resident 2 on 1/20/2025 for wandering behavior.
During a review of Resident 2's Care Plan (CP - document created to identify a patient's needs) for
elopement risk/wandering dated 1/21/2025, the CP indicated the intervention for 1:1 supervision will be
rendered by staff dated 1/28/2025.
During a review of the facility's Nursing Staffing Assignment and Sign-In Sheet (NSA), dated 1/20/2025 for
7:00 AM, 3:00 PM and 11:00 PM for North and South Station, there was no documentation of a sitter
(person who provides direct care and supervision to a resident), or one-to-one monitoring provided to
Resident 2.
During a review of the Resident 2's Progress Notes (PN), dated 1/20/2025, the PN did not indicate a sitter,
or one-to-one monitoring was provided to Resident 2.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Accidents and Supervision, dated, 2022,
the P&P indicated under 3. Implementation of interventions - using specific interventions to try to reduce a
resident's risk from hazards in the environment. The process includes communicating the interventions to
relevant staff, assigning responsibility and documenting interventions.
