Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of eighteen residents (Resident
36) reviewed for advanced directives had a Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST - written
medical orders that addresses a limited number of critical medical decisions) accurately completed when
there was conflicting information documented regarding medical interventions.
This failure had the potential for Resident 36 to receive end of life care not in accordance with their wishes
and for life sustaining measures to be rendered against what the resident wanted.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 36's admission Record, (contains medical and demographic information), the
admission Record indicated Resident 36 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses
which included hemiplegia and hemiparesis (weakness and paralysis on one side of the body) affecting left
non-dominant side, heart failure, chronic respiratory failure (a long-term condition that prevents the body
from exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide properly), and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(COPD - lung disease that causes breathing problems and restricted airflow).
During a review of Resident 36's POLST, signed by a clinician on [DATE], the POLST indicated in Section
A, Attempt Resuscitation/CPR [cardiopulmonary resuscitation - an emergency lifesaving procedure
performed when the heart stops beating] . further review of Section A indicated, .selecting CPR in Section
A requires selecting Full Treatment in Section B) .Section B of the POLST Medical Interventions, indicated
two options; the first option was full treatment - Primary goal of prolonging life by all medically effective
means .use intubation, advanced airway interventions, mechanical ventilation, and cardioversion as
indicated . The second option was Selective Treatment - goal of treating medical conditions while avoiding
burdensome measures .do not intubate .generally avoid intensive care . Of the two options, Selective
Treatment was checked instead of Full Treatment as specified in Section A if Attempt/Resuscitation/CPR
was selected.
During a concurrent interview, and record review on [DATE], at 7:30 AM, with the Director of Nursing
(DON), the DON stated if a resident wishes to have CPR/attempt resuscitation indicated in Section A of the
POLST, then Section B must have full treatment checked as indicated on the instructions of the form.
Resident 36's POLST was reviewed and the DON confirmed Attempt Resuscitation/CPR was checked in
Section A and Section B had Selective Treatment selected. The DON stated Resident 36's POLST form
needed to be clarified with the nurse who completed it. The DON further stated the POLST was supposed
to be reviewed quarterly and upon admit for accuracy and completeness. The DON stated the POLST
forms were important because it provides orders regarding what life sustaining treatments the

attention. CNA 6 further stated although she has not heard of Resident 36 having her call light taken away,
she has heard of other residents who have told her that they had their call light taken away from them too.
CNA 6 then stated she had informed her supervisor regarding the incident but could not remember who
she informed.
During an interview on October 17, 2024, at 7:06 PM, with Certified Nursing Assistant 7 (CNA 7), CNA 7
stated a resident had informed her in May of 2024, that a Certified Nursing Assistant working in the facility
would take the residents call light away from them if the resident used the call light too much. CNA 7 stated
she never reported the incident to anyone and only recalled mentioning it to another staff member but could
not remember who.
During an interview on October 18, 2024, at 9:22 AM, with the ADMIN, the ADMIN stated he was the

received care and services as specified In their care plans (individualized plans for the medical care of a
resident) when:
1) For Resident 14, the facility did not ensure staff kept the resident's smoking materials.
This failure had the potential to result in in accident or injury to Resident 14 and other residents residing in
the facility as a result of increased fire hazard.
2) For Resident 11, the facility did not ensure staff checked the residents blood sugar before meals.
This failure has the potential to affect Resident 11's blood sugar management and could lead to inaccurate
blood sugar readings, which may result improper insulin administration (medication use in the treatment
and management of diabetes) and increased risk of hyperglycemia (elevated blood sugar).
Findings:
1) During a review of Resident 14's clinical record, the admission Record (contains medical and
demographic information), indicated Resident 14 was admitted [DATE], with diagnoses which included
Hemiplegia and hemiparesis (paralysis and weakness on one side of the body) on right dominant side,

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** An immediate
jeopardy (IJ- a situation that has threatened or is likely to threaten the health and safety of a resident) was
called under F689 §483.25(d)(2) Each resident receives adequate supervision and assistance devices
to prevent accidents on October 16, 2024, at 4:53 PM, regarding the elopement of Resident 27 from the
facility on October 16, 2024. An IJ was called in the presence of the Administrator. A corrective action plan
was requested on October 16, 2024, at 4:53 PM. The immediate Jeopardy was removed after the corrective
action plan was verified to be implemented through observations interviews, and record reviews on October
17, 2024, at 2:46 PM in the presence of the Administrator.
Free of Accident Hazards / Supervision/Devices CFR (s): 483.25(d)(2)(2)

The facility must ensure that.
§483.25(d)(1) The resident environment remains as free of accidents hazards as is possible; and
§483.25(d)(2) Each resident receives adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent
accidents.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by:
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide supervision to one of 36
residents (Resident 27) in the locked memory care unit (a locked unit which is a secure area within the
skilled nursing facility where people with dementia live. The locked unit prevents the residents from
wandering off or leaving the facility willingly) on October 16, 2024, when staff was unaware Resident 27 (a
confused resident with cognitive deficit and a history of falls) had left the facility. It was not until Surveyor 1
(a member of a survey team not employed by the facility) informed facility staff that the resident had eloped
(the act of leaving the premises or safe area without authorization or supervision to do so) and was in a
field adjacent to the facility building.
This failure had the potential to result in serious harm or death to Resident 27 who was at risk for injuries
which may occur as a result of being exposed to environmental elements, accident hazards or being
without resources such as food, water and shelter.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 27's clinical record, the admission Record (contains medical and demographic
information), it indicated Resident 27 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which
included dementia (a chronic condition that causes a decline in mental functioning, such as thinking,
remembering, and reasoning, that interferes with daily life), encephalopathy (any brain disease, disorder, or
damage that affects the brain's structure or function), altered mental status, fall on or from other stairs and

further stated the facility exterior door remained unlocked, but the gate was locked with a keypad code that
staff would enter and exit the facility through to gain access to the laundry room and garbage dumpster.
When asked if the facility exterior door had an audible alarm to indicate the door had been opened, the
ADMIN stated the door had not been alarmed since he started working at the facility within the last three
years.
During an interview on October 16, 2024, at 12:26 PM, with Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) stated on
October 16, 2024, he was at lunch when he received a phone call at 11:13 AM from CNA 2 informing him
Resident 27 had left the facility building and was in a field. CNA 1 further stated there was supposed to be
at least one CNA stationed in each of the two halls in the memory care unit to provide supervision to the
residents. CNA 1 stated he informed CNA 2 and a charge nurse that he was going to lunch, and it was CNA
2 who was supposed to be supervising residents while he was at lunch at the time Resident 27 eloped.
CNA 1 stated the door leading to the exterior of the building (in the hall in which Resident 27 allegedly
eloped from), used to have an alarm in the past but did not any longer.
During an interview on October 16, 2024, at 12:43 PM, with CNA 2, CNA 2 stated the memory care unit
(two total hallways) was supposed to have at least one CNA supervising each hallway. CNA 2 further stated
there was usually four CNAs assigned to the memory care unit (2 for each hallway), but at the time
Resident 27 had eloped, the two CNAs (CNA 1 and CNA 4) assigned to the hallway where Resident 27's
room was located and where the door Resident 27 used to go outside was also located, were at lunch at
the same time. CNA 2 stated she was assigned to the other hallway but was tasked with supervising both
hallways. When asked where CNA 3 was (the third of four CNAs assigned to the memory care unit), CNA 1
stated CNA 3 was in the activity room (located in the memory care unit) and that CNA 3 was supposed to
be helping her supervise the residents but did not know why CNA 3 was in the activity room instead. CNA 2
stated she also saw Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1) at the nurses' station in the memory care unit.
During an interview on October 16, 2024, at 1:07 PM, with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), LVN 1
stated there were four CNAs assigned to the memory care unit to supervise residents. LVN 1 further stated
the CNA's in the halls were supposed to take lunch opposite each other so there was one CNA at a time
taking a lunch from each hallway. This would leave one CNA in each hallway to supervise residents. LVN 1
stated she was just covering the lower dementia [locked memory care unit] unit as extra eyes while LVN 2
was at lunch. LVN 1 further stated she was aware CNA 1 was on lunch but didn't know if any of the other
CNAs were on lunch or break. LVN 1 stated she saw CNA 2 supervising the hallways but didn't see any
other CNAs in the hallways. LVN 1 stated she was aware CNA 3 was providing supervision to residents in
the activity room. LVN 1 stated LVN 2 came back from her lunch at approximately 11:05 AM and she (LVN
1) then went to lunch while LVN 2 went to go check a resident's blood sugar (test to determine the level of
sugar in the blood) in a resident's room.
During an interview on October 16, 2024, at 1:30 PM, with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated she came back from lunch
and at the time Resident 27 eloped, she was doing a blood sugar check on a resident in the resident's
room. LVN 2 further stated she knew CNA 1 was supervising the halls but did not know where CNA 4 was.
During an interview on October 16, 2024, at 1:39 PM, with CNA 3, CNA 3 stated she was supervising the
hallways earlier in the day but was asked by an activities staff member to come and help provide
supervision in the activities room because there was more than 10 residents in the activity room and they
needed more than 1 staff member to provide supervision. CNA 3 further stated she was aware CNA

1 and CNA 4 were on lunch which meant there was only her and CNA 2 left to supervise the hallways but
stated she (CNA 3) could only be in one place at a time so she decided to go to the activity room to help
the activities staff member. CNA 3 stated after approximately 20-30 minutes of being in the activity room,
she was walking back to the hallway from the activity room when she was made aware Resident 27 had
eloped.
During a concurrent observation and interview on October 16, 2024, at 5:24 PM, with Resident 27,
Resident 27 was observed to be in his room which was located immediately adjacent to a facility exit door
located at the end of the hallway where there was a locked gate upon exiting the building. Resident 27 was
alert and oriented x (times) 1 (one) (oriented to person but not oriented to place, time, or situation).
Resident 27 stated he didn't know where he was, what day or month it was and stated he thought he was
on TV during our discussion. Resident 27 was unable to answer if he recalled if or how he left the facility.
During an interview on October 18, 2024, at 9:59 AM, with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), the
DSD stated the staffing schedule (in use at the time Resident 27 eloped) did not indicate who was
supposed to cover each hallway during staff breaks and lunches and it was facility practice to ensure
verbally with each other that there was someone in each hallway to supervise residents.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Elopement/Unsafe Wandering, dated
December 2023, the P&P indicated, This facility is committed to promoting resident autonomy by providing
an environment that remains as free of accident hazards as possible. Each resident is assisted in attaining
or maintaining their highest practicable level of function through providing the resident adequate
supervision and diversional programs to prevent unsafe wandering while maintaining the least restrictive
environment for those at risk for elopement .Elopement is when a resident leaves the facility premises or a
safe area without authorization (i.e. [for example] an order for discharge or leave of absence) and/or any
necessary supervision to do so .
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ-a situation that has threatened or is likely to threaten the health and safety of a
resident) was called under F689 §483.25(d)(2) Each resident receives adequate supervision and
assistance devices to prevent accidents on October 16, 2024 at 4:53 PM, after it was determined that
Resident 27 did not receive supervision and monitoring required to keep the resident safe on October 16,
2024, when the resident was found to have eloped from the facility and was found by a surveyor in a field
behind the facility's parking lot. The IJ was called in the presence of the Administrator (ADMIN). A
Corrective Action Plan (CAP- a plan which includes interventions to remove the potential or actual harm of
an immediate jeopardy situation) was requested and a preliminary CAP was received on October 17, 2024,
at 12:48 PM and included the following:
- On October 16, 2024, upon notification of incident, Resident 27 was assessed by the Director of Nursing
(DON) and a physician. Body assessment was done with no apparent injury. The attending physician
ordered Complete Blood Count (CBC - blood tests), Complete Metabolic Panel (CMP-blood tests) and
Urinalysis with culture and sensitivity (urine tests) STAT (immediately).
- Resident 27 was placed on 72-hour change of condition (change in a resident's health or functioning that
can be short-term or significant) monitoring and 1:1 (one on one) supervision with closed visual check. No
change was noted related to incident.
- On October 16, 2024, the Facility Administrator installed a functional audio alarm system on all exit doors
in the lower unit.

Ensure a licensed pharmacist perform a monthly drug regimen review, including the medical chart,
following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to document a gradual dose reduction (GDR) for
one of eight sampled residents (Resident 55) when a recommended a decrease in Trazadone (a medicine
that helps people who are feeling very sad or having trouble to sleep) from 100 mg (milligrams unit of
measurement) to 50 mg was not done and documented.
This failure has the potential to result in over medication and increased risk of side effects for Resident 55.

During a review of Resident 55's pharmacist's recommendation dated October 7, 2024, indicated a
recommended GDR of Trazadone dose from 100 mg to 50 mg due to the Resident 55's stable condition.
During a review of Resident 55's physician orders for October 2024, there is no documented evidence
Trazadone has been decreased from 100 mg to 50 mg. Further review of Resident 55's physician's orders
indicated Resident 55 has been receiving trazadone 100 mg since June 5, 2024.
During a review of Resident 55's care plan (an individualized plan for the medical care of the resident)
titled, Depression Management, undated, the care plan indicated Resident 55 had episodes of depression
manifested by inability to sleep. The goal was to minimize the risk of adverse side effects of medication
usage, including Trazadone, through appropriate interventions. The interventions included administer
antidepressant medication as per physician's order, monitor and record episodes of behavior per
psychotropic policy .Gradual Dose Reduction (GDR) as indicated .
During a review of the Resident 55's Nurse Practitioner's (NP) Progress notes dated October 7, 2024, the
NP progress notes indicated Resident 55 had been evaluated and was found to be stable. A GDR for
Trazodone was recommended reducing the dose from 100 mg to 50 mg. Further review of NP's progress
notes dated October 7, 2024; it indicated Resident 55 had agreed to the GDR during the NP's evaluation.
During an observation, and interview, with Resident 55's on October 17, 2024, at 2:29 PM, Resident 55
was observed lying down on her bed with her eyes open and able to verbalize her needs. Resident 55
agree to be interviewed and she was aware she had been taking Trazadone 100 mg at night because it
helps her sleep. Resident 55 expressed that she wanted to continue taking this dose.
During an interview on October 15, 2024, at 5:16 PM with Director of Nurses (DON), the DON confirmed
that Resident 55 was still taking Trazodone 100 mg per the physician's orders. The DON further explained
that she had attempted to obtain Resident 55's consent for the dose reduction, but Resident 55 refused,
expressing her preference to continue with the Trazadone 100 mg dose.
