(c)(3) Dementia management and resident
abuse prevention.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview, medical record review, and
facility document review, the facility failed to
implement their P&P and investigate an
incident for one of two sampled residents
(Resident 1) and one of three nonsampled
residents (Resident B).
* The facility failed to report and investigate an
incident involving Resident B who was found
lying in bed naked from the waist down with
Resident 1 in Resident 1's bedroom.
Failure to investigate the allegation of abuse
had the potential to place vulnerable residents
at increased risk of abuse and all residents not
being protected against abuse.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Abuse
& Neglect Prohibition, under the section
for Investigation showed the facility will timely
conduct an investigation of any alleged abuse
in accordance with the state law. Under the
section for Reporting and Response, the facility
will complete an incident/accident report on
occurrences of abuse. The facility will report all
allegations and substantiated occurrence of
abuse in accordance to state law.
Review of the form SOC 341 (used to report
suspected adult/elder abuse) dated 8/3/17,
showed Resident 1's hands were allegedly
found inside Resident C's shirt touching her
breasts. The SOC 341 dated 8/6/17, showed
Resident 1 allegedly hit Resident A.

hematoma (abnormal collection of blood
outside of a blood vessel), and fracture of the
left distal femoral shaft (thigh bone above the
knee joint).
Findings:
According to the Journal of the American
Geriatrics Society (June 2005), an air-filled
mattress compresses on the side to which a
person moves, thus raising the center of the
mattress and lowering the side. This may
make it easier for a resident to slide off the
mattress. Precautions may include following
manufacturer equipment alerts and increasing
supervision.
Medical record review for Resident 2 was
initiated on 8/11/17. Resident 2 was admitted
to the facility on 10/22/14, with diagnoses
including paraplegia and contractures.
Review of the History and Physical Note dated
9/28/16, showed Resident 2 did not have the
capacity to understand and make decisions.
Review of the Fall Risk Assessment dated
7/31/17, showed Resident 2 was assessed to
be at high risk for falls.
Review of Resident 2's plan of care showed a
care plan problem with the initiation date of
9/28/15, to address the risk for falls. A revision
to the interventions dated 5/1/17, showed two
persons' assistance with transfers, bed
mobility, and all ADL care, including
incontinence care.
Review of Resident 2's MDS dated 7/31/17,
showed the resident had severe cognitive
impairment and required total assistance of one

Review of the Order Recap Report for August
2017 showed a physician's order dated 8/4/17,
for a LAL mattress for pressure ulcer
prevention.
Review of the Service Document from the
mattress company showed the LAL mattress
was ordered and delivered for Resident 2 on
8/4/17.
According to the LAL mattress manufacturer's
specifications regarding safety information on
resident migration, specialty bed products are
designed to reduce/redistribute pressure and
the shearing/friction forces on the resident's
skin. The risk of inadvertent bed exit may be
increased due to the nature of these products.
Review of the plan of care did not show a care
plan problem was developed or revised to
address the safety precautions for the use of
the LAL mattress.

prepared by RN 1 dated 8/5/17 at 2338 hours,

off the mattress, and fell to the floor. Resident

was later found to have a bruise on the right
side of her face. The form stated the incident
was also witnessed by RN 1.
