presence. The DON confirmed there were no resident in the facility that were permitted to self-administer
their own medications. The DON stated, no pills should be left at bedside.
Review of the facility's policy Self-Administration of Medications revised date February 2021 revealed

clinically appropriate and safe for the resident to do so 3. If it is deemed safe and appropriate for a resident
to self-administer medications, this is documented in the medical record and the care plan. The decision
that a resident can safely administer medications is reassessed periodically based on changes in the
resident's medical and or decision-making status.

This care plan problem area did not reflect what specific type of PTSD/Trauma Resident #77 had, nor did
the care plan problem area have interventions to reduce or identify behaviors specifically related to
PTSD/Trauma. This care plan problem area was more related to trauma related to a sprained Left ankle.
On 3/27/2024 at 11:20 a.m., an interview with Staff I, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) revealed she had
Resident #77 on her assignment most days and she knew him and his care and services. Staff I also
revealed she knew him well enough to know that he had not been presenting for awhile with any types of
behaviors. Staff I revealed Resident #77 usually stayed in his room most of the day and came out when he
was scheduled for rehabilitation therapy. She did not believe he participated in resident group activities. She
also verified the resident had family visits at times. She said the resident had not had any behaviors in
awhile that she could remember, but would report behaviors to the nurse if he exhibited any. Staff I was
asked if she was aware if the Resident #77 had any past Trauma or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
behaviors that she might need to watch for. She revealed she did not believe that he did. She was asked if
she was provided with any training or education related to residents having Trauma/PTSD. She said she
did, but it might have been a long time ago. Staff I revealed the training was most likely basic and revealed
how to identify certain behaviors and how to report them. Staff I confirmed she had never been educated
on what PTSD/Trauma behavior or triggers to look out for and report when it came to Resident #77.
On 3/27/2024 at 11:30 a.m., an interview with Staff B, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) revealed she had
Resident #77 on her assignment on a daily basis and knew him and what his care expectations were.
Staff B revealed Resident #77 stayed in his room most of the time and he usually only came out when he
had therapy. She revealed he had electronic devices in his room, television shows to watch and had visits
from family at times. Staff B revealed Resident #77 did not like to go to scheduled group activities, and he
normally ate in his room for all three meals.
Staff B said the resident had not had any documented behaviors during the past couple of months that she
could remember, but he and his roommate would sometimes disagree with one another. They were really
close roommate friends, and almost like family. Staff B said the resident could not remember the reason for
his Trauma/PTSD and she did not know of what type of behaviors to look out for and report that were
specifically related to his past Trauma/PTSD. She did not know what types of triggers would cause him to
present with PTSD/Trauma behaviors. Staff B confirmed she had Trauma/PTSD education in the past, but
was not made aware of what specific Trauma behaviors Resident #77 may or may not present with. Staff B
also confirmed the floor CNAs were not aware of what specific behaviors of past Trauma to look out for and
to report to her.
On 3/27/2024 at 1:26 p.m., an interview with Staff J, Staff Developer revealed she was generally the person
who was initially responsible for providing education and inservices related to Trauma/PTSD. She revealed
initial training was provided to staff during their orientation process. Staff J also revealed the Director of
Nursing and the Assistant Director of Nursing would also provide training related to PTSD/Trauma as need.
Staff J provided a blank orientation packet that was provided to new staff which included a power point
presentation. Page 17 of the power point presentation revealed two slides dedicated to Trauma informed
care. The slides indicated how to generally observed, report and identify trauma in residents. There was a
computer based website the staff had to watch to include review of the slides. Staff

J said the PTSD/Trauma education was provided on a yearly basis to all staff. Staff J confirmed the DON,
ADON, and psychiatric services were responsible for identifying, assessing, and monitoring residents for
triggers and symptoms related to Trauma/PTSD, They were also responsible for passing down information
to direct care staff related to specific behaviors related to Trauma/PTSD.
A second interview with Staff J was conducted on 3/28/2024 at 8:30 a.m., and she provided the last facility
wide Trauma/PTSD training, dated 7/25/2023. The training subject matter revealed; Trauma Informed Care,
and was signed and dated by all direct care staff. Staff were provided with an informational Trauma
Informed Care Handout. Staff J again could not speak to what triggers affected Resident #77 with regards
to past Trauma/PTSD. She confirmed all staff should be aware of what type of behaviors to look for so they
could be reported to the Nurse Manager, DON, and psychiatric services, in order to find ways to reduce
those behaviors. Staff J confirmed Resident #77's medical record to include the Medication Administration
Record (MAR) and Treatment Administration Record (TAR) did not have a specific order or monitoring
system for specific behaviors/triggers related to PTSD.
On 3/28/2024 at 10:00 a.m., an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and the DON confirmed
though Resident #77 had care plans related to Trauma/PTSD behaviors, and orders for general behavior
monitoring; there was no evidence in the medical record to include nurse progress notes, nursing quarterly
assessments, and care plans that spoke to what type of past Trauma/PTSD he had. The DON confirmed
the psychiatric assessments showed a note on 10/31/02023, 11/28/2023, and 12/26/2023 that the resident
had a past history of trauma related to military war background. The DON said the information was not
carried over to the current Trauma/PTSD care plan, nor were staff educated and inserviced on what types
of triggers might induce those specific trauma behaviors.
On 3/28/2024 at 11:00 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator revealed the facility did not have a specific
Trauma/PTSD policy and procedure. However, she provided a Behavioral Assessment, Intervention and
Monitoring policy and procedure for review. She revealed this policy is used for residents who have
Trauma/PTSD. The policy was last revised on March 2019 and revealed;
1. The facility will provide and residents will receive behavioral health services as needed to attain or
maintain the highest practicable physical, mental and psychosocial well-being in accordance with
comprehensive assessment and plan of care.
2. Behavioral symptoms will be identified using facility-approved behavioral screening tools and the
comprehensive assessment.
3. Residents who do not display symptoms of, or have not been diagnosed with, mental, psychiatric,
psychosocial adjustment, substance abuse or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) will not develop
behavioral disturbances that cannot be attributed to a specific clinical condition that makes the pattern
unavoidable.
General Guidelines;
(1) Behavior is the response of an individual to a wide variety of factors. These factors may include medical,
physical, functional, psychosocial, emotional, psychiatric, or environmental clauses.
a. Behavior is regulated by the brain and is influenced by past experiences, personality traits, environment,
and interactions with other people.

and caregivers, review of medical record and general observations:
Residents Affected - Few
a. The resident's usual patterns of cognition, mood and behavior.
