F 0585 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews, observations, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all grievances were tracked through to their conclusions for two residents (#56 and #16) of seven sampled residents for choices. Findings included: On 1/29/2024 at 12:48 PM an observation of Resident # 56's room revealed an un-opened box containing an electric wheelchair sitting at the foot of the resident bed against the wall. An interview was conducted on 1/29/2024 with Resident #56 regarding the electric wheelchair. Resident #56 stated,They haven't hooked it up for me. It's just sitting in the box. Look at it. I can't get around if I wanted to. I would like to go to activities. It's been sitting here since September. A review of Resident #56's medical record revealed the following progress note: 12/14/2023 at 11:30 AM: Social Service Note Resident has an electric scooter /chair in her room and was given the okay to use it by the Administrator. She is unable to use a regular wheelchair due to immobility reasons. Rehab Director asked to have social worker reach out to a company that will be able to assemble the scooter Will follow up. [Social Service Director]. A follow- up interview was conducted with Resident #56 on 1/30/24 at 1:54 PM. Resident #56 stated, Yes, they did come and talk to me about it a while ago. They gave me a phone number to call and ask for someone to come and assemble it for me. The number they gave me wasn't worth [expletive] .I told them that it didn't work, and they said they would try to contact someone else. I haven't heard nothing about it since then .I kept getting the run-around, so I just gave up. An interview was conducted with the Social Services Director (SSD) and Director of Rehabilitation Services (DOR) on 1/30/24 at 2:49 PM. The SSD stated, .The Maintenance Director at the time gave me a number to a contractor that would assemble the wheelchair but the number he gave me wasn't a working number. I went to the room and looked on the wheelchair box for a customer service telephone number for help. There was no telephone number, but I found a website. I went online and submitted information for them to call me back. They never responded .I did reach out again to the website and submitted a request but didn't get anything. Maybe last week or so she (Resident #56) asked me again for a status on the wheelchair and I told her I would do what I can. This has kind of got left in my hands to deal with and I don't know what to do.
