F 0604 Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and staff interviews the facility failed to protect residents' right to be free from physical restraint for 1 (Resident #1) of 1 resident reviewed for restraints. Residents Affected - Few The findings included: Review of the clinical record revealed Resident #1 was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included Traumatic Subdural Hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain), Aphasia (language disorder affecting ability to speak) following Cerebral Infarction, and muscle weakness. The admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment with a target date of 11/12/24 noted the resident's cognition was severely impaired with a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 05. Review of the facility's incident investigations revealed on 11/25/24 at 7:45 a.m., the Director of Rehab reported to the Administrator when the Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant (COTA) went to get Resident #1 for therapy, she found the resident in his room, in his wheelchair with a sitter. The resident had a gait belt around his abdomen and secured to the back of the wheelchair. The resident was assessed and there were no injuries. The investigation noted Resident #1's sitter said in an interview that she was assigned to provide one to one supervision to Resident #1 during the alleged incident. She said she had been assigned to the resident for a double shift starting at 10:00 p.m. She said Resident #1 for up at around 5:00 a.m. Resident #1 kept getting up. The therapist came by and said she would be right back to bring the resident to therapy. The sitter said she put the gait belt on because Resident #1 kept getting up. She said she was holding onto the gait belt with the resident in the wheelchair waiting for the therapist to return. It was only a few seconds and she did not attach the gait belt to the wheelchair. The investigation noted the COTA said when she went to get the resident for therapy, she saw the gait belt around the resident's abdomen and attached to the wheelchair. It wasn't tight to cause injury but secured to keep the resident in the chair.
