The facility must ensure that §483.25(d)(1) The resident environment
remains as free of accident 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, medical
record review, and facility P&P review, the
facility failed to provide adequate supervision
for one of two sampled residents (Resident 1)
who received the electrical stimulation
treatments.
* Resident 1 had an electrical stimulation (estim) machine applied to him and set at "60
microamperes" when the usual setting was "30
microamperes." Then, Resident 1 was left
alone while the e-stim treatment was ongoing
and was not instructed on how to stop the
stimulation when he experienced the intense
pain to his left lower leg where the e-stim pad
was placed. As as result, Resident 1 sustained
burns to his left lower leg which developed into
open wounds into the muscle, requiring
prolonged wound care due to wound
worsening, debridement procedures (removal
of damaged tissues from a wound), and weekly
visits by a surgical wound specialist.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Modalities
released date of 9/23/16, showed the electrical
stimulation is one of the facility's rehabilitation
therapy services. The P&P showed the safety
of the resident is the responsibility of the
clinician at all times during the course of the
treatment.

treatment to the left inner thigh muscle and
tibialis anterior (muscle on front of lower leg) of
Resident 1 for muscle re-education and
strengthening using bipolar electrode
placement at 30 mA for 20 minutes. Resident
1 was positioned in a supine position,
instructed on the purpose of NMES, and
performed the heel slide during the current
cycle.
Review of the PT Daily Daily Treatment Note
dated 1/23/19, showed the electrical stimulation
treatment was held due to Resident 1's
impaired skin integrity to his left anterior tibia
proximal to the left lateral knee joint about 2
inches down. PTA 2 performed the skin
assessment to Resident 1 prior to the therapy.
The documentation showed Resident 1's skin
was red with dark patches. Documentation
showed the Director of Rehabilitation, DON,
and treatment nurse were all notified about
Resident 1's e-stim incident and care of the
resident's burn which was the treatment nurse's
responsibility.

separated by skin bridges. The progress notes
showed the wound was caused by a electrical
stimulation burn, which was the device used by
the PT to stimulate the muscles. The progress
notes showed the wound was down to the
muscle level and required to be surgically
debrided.
On 2/22/19 at 0810 hours, an interview and
concurrent medical record review for Resident
1 was conducted with LVN 1. LVN 1 stated
Resident 1 was seen weekly by a wound care
specialist for his left lower leg wound. LVN 1
stated a change of condition report was
completed on 1/23/19, due to five dry brown
spots noted on Resident 1's left lower leg
where the e-stim pad was placed. LVN 1
stated on 1/30/19, four of the spots opened up
and a wound care specialist surgically debrided
the areas and started routine wound care.
On 2/22/19 at 0900 hours, an interview with
Resident 1 and concurrent wound treatment
observation was conducted with LVN 1.
Resident 1 was observed with four open wound
sites, each approximately the size of a pencil
eraser and in a pattern of a semi-circle on the
resident's left lower leg. Resident 1 stated he
had the e-stim therapy every day which
contracted his muscles on his left shoulder and
left lower leg. Resident 1 stated he usually
received this treatment in the facility's rehab
gym, but on 1/22/19, he sustained the burn and
developed these wounds when he received the
e-stim treatment in his room. Resident 1 stated
he was not given the control button to stop the
e-stim machine nor was he informed there was
a "pause" button on the machine itself.
Resident 1 stated the therapist who applied the
e-stim machine to his skin left his room.
Resident 1 stated he began to notice pain in his
leg unlike any of his previous treatments.
Resident 1 stated his family member who was

visiting at the time left his room to find
someone who could turn the e-stim machine
off.
On 2/22/19 at 0930 hours, an interview was
conducted with the Director of Rehabilitation.
The Director of Rehabilitation stated the PTs
and PTAs had received education on the use of
e-stim during their school and hands-on
experience during their clinical rotations while
in school. The Director of Rehabilitation stated
the facility did not provide training on how to
use the e-stim machine unless the staff asked
for. The Director of Rehabilitation stated once
an e-stim machine was connected to a resident
and turned on, the PTA was to stay with the
resident while instructing them in active muscle
contraction. The Director of Rehabilitation went
on to say if the staff needed to leave the
resident, they would provide the resident with a
safety measure and show the resident how to
stop the machine in the event they were in
pain. The Director of Rehabilitation stated pain
was not an expected response to the e-stim
treatment, and it would be stopped right away.
The Director recalled on 1/23/19, she was
called into Resident 1's room by another PTA
and had observed four or five small blackish
reddish marks in a semi-circle on Resident 1's
left lateral lower leg. The Director of
Rehabilitation stated she called PT 1 who was
Resident 1's primary PT. She stated PT 1 told
her Resident 1 usually tolerated the e-stim
treatment very well. The Director of
Rehabilitation was asked how Resident 1 had
sustained the marks on his left leg. The
Director of Rehabilitation stated on 1/22/19,
PTA 1 applied the e-stim machine to Resident
1 left lower leg and left the resident's room.
Resident 1 complained of high intensity pain
and the resident's family member came to look
for PTA 1 but was unable to find PTA 1. PT 1
went to Resident 1 and lowered the intensity,

instructed the resident on how to use it. When
PTA 1 came back to the resident's room and
stated he had gone to use the restroom and did
not ask anyone to watch Resident 1 while he
was gone.
On 2/22/19 at 1020 hours, an interview was
conducted with the Medical Director. The
Medical Director stated the facility had
investigated Resident 1's incident involving the
e-stim machine and stated it was an event that
should have never happened and it had never
happened before. The Medical Director
confirmed Resident 1 had been left alone while
receiving the e-stim treatment without a means
to stop or shut off the machine.
On 2/22/19 at 1025 hours, an observation of
the electrical stimulation machine was
conducted with the Director of Rehabilitation.
There was a long cord attached to the machine
which had a red push button on the end of the
cord. The Director of Rehabilitation stated the
red push button was a safety button given to
the resident receiving the treatment so they
could stop the machine if needed. The Director
of Rehabilitation also pointed out a button on
the machine which showed to "stop" and
another button which showed to "pause." The
Director of Rehabilitation stated PTA 1 had an
upset stomach, left Resident 1 alone, and was
in the bathroom "a little longer."
On 2/22/19 at 1415 hours, an interview was
conducted with PT 1. PT 1 stated when the PT
service was ordered for a resident, she was the
therapist one who determined the resident's
treatment plan regarding the use of NMES/estim. PT 1 stated the e-stim machine was
automatically set for 15 to 20 minutes and left
at 20 minutes unless the resident would not
tolerate that long. PT 1 stated the resident

would not necessarily feel the electrical
stimulation, but the therapist was to palpate
manually for muscle contraction when the estim machine was on. When asked about
Resident 1's incident on 1/22/19, PT 1 stated
Resident 1's family member came to the gym
looking for PTA 1, told PT 1 her dad needed
help, and the resident felt uncomfortable with
the e-stim machine. PT 1 stated when she ran
to Resident 1's room and paused his e-stim
machine. PT 1 stated the e-stim machine was
set on "60 microamperes," which was a pretty
high setting. PT 1 stated the usual setting was
"30 microamperes." PT 1 stated she lowered
the setting to "30 microamperes" on his
quadriceps and "16 microamperes" on his
tibialis anterior (lower leg). PT 1 stated
Resident 1 then felt comfortable, and he
finished his treatment at the lower setting. PT
1 stated she gave Resident 1 the stop button
and told him about the pause button on the
machine. PT 1 stated the residents were never
to be left alone with the e-stim machine on as
they need one-to-one supervision while doing
their exercises. PT 1 stated she was not sure
but did not think Resident 1 had been educated
on the stop and pause buttons of the e-stim
machine prior to her instructing him. PT 1
stated PTA 1 told PT 1 he had gone to the
bathroom when he left Resident 1 alone.
On 2/25/19 at 1410 hours, a telephone
interview was conducted with PTA 1. PTA 1
stated he had worked with Resident 1 since
Resident 1 was admitted to the facility. PTA 1
stated Resident 1 had a stroke and had limited
sensation to his left leg. PTA 1 explained on
1/22/19, he had placed the e-stim electrode
pads on Resident 1's left thigh and lower leg
and then turned up the e-stim setting to
Resident 1's tolerance, although this resident
had no feeling on his left side. PTA 1 stated if
the intensity was too high, he would have

feel the e-stim at all. When asked if the staff
was to remain with a resident while they were
having the e-stim treatment ongoing, PTA 1
stated Resident 1's family member was visiting
the resident that day. PTA 1 stated he left
Resident 1's room because he needed to go to
the bathroom and was gone for "ten minutes,
five to ten minutes." PTA 1 stated he did not
remember instructing Resident 1 on how to turn
off the e-stim machine, and the resident was
immobile and would not have been able to
push the pause button on the machine. PTA 1
stated Resident 1's family member was there
and could have turned off the e-stim machine.
On 3/5/19 at 0910 hours, a telephone interview
was conducted with Resident 1's FM 1. FM 1
stated she was visiting Resident 1 for a number
of weeks and had been present for
approximately 10 or 11 other e-stim treatments
prior to the burn incident on 1/22/19, caused by
the e-still equipment. FM 1 stated on 1/22/19,
Resident 1 was complaining of nausea,
dizziness, and not feeling well, so the e-stim
session was done while Resident 1 was lying in
his bed instead of going to the rehab gym. FM
1 stated PTA 1 set up the e-stim equipment on
Resident 1, then PTA 1 sat down in a chair for
a few minutes, and worked on his tablet. PTA
1 then got up and stated the electrical
stimulation would run for about 15 more
minutes and he would be back; PTA 1 then left
the room. FM 1 stated after approximately six
or seven minutes, Resident 1 told FM 1 the estim really hurt him a lot, so FM 1 left the room
and went to look for PT 1. FM 1 stated
Resident 1 was grimacing, moving his leg
some, and looked like the pain was "close to a
10." FM 1 stated instead of finding PTA 1, she
found PT 1, and told her, "Hey, it's really
hurting him." PT 1 then came to the room,
looked at the e-stim, and stated she wondered
