F 0600 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Many The agreement noted, Total number of seats: 8 wheelchair, 4 Stretcher, 11 Ambulatory or 15 wheelchair, 11 ambulatory. The plan did not include contingency planning in the event the contracted transport companies could not fulfill the agreement. Key workers (Departmental Managers) will be responsible for understanding their roles in an emergency, as outlined in the CEMP. A hurricane preparedness in-service will be held with residents and staff just prior to hurricane season to review and prepare in the event of a hurricane. A comprehensive disaster preparedness education will be held annually and is mandatory for employees. In addition, disaster preparedness training is a key part of the orientation for new hires. Training is provided by department managers, each concentrating on their specific areas of responsibility. A general review of the facility's comprehensive emergency management plan is given to all new employees during their orientation. Department/Role specific training is completed during the employee's first week of orientation. Staffing for evacuation. Facility staff will accompany evacuating residents to their destination. Staff will accompany residents through the same modes of transportation utilized in evacuating the residents. Supplies will be packed for transit. Medications will be with the resident. Any residents deemed unable to transport in a non-emergent vehicle or Sunset Lake vehicle, will be reviewed by the Medical Director or designee, and may by physician order be transferred via ambulance to a local hospital. Review of a facility documentation related to the mandatory hurricane [NAME] evacuation revealed that on 10/8/24 at 9:30 a.m., the Nursing Home Administrator notified the management team that the Sarasota County Emergency Services issued a mandatory evacuation order which required all residents be transferred to a safe location by midnight. The facility secured evacuation locations at three different facilities, transportation services were obtained by contracted providers and from sister facilities. The facility secured trucks to transport ancillary equipment such as medication carts, oxygen concentrators, wheelchairs etc. The undercarriage of the coach buses was utilized for personal belongings, emergency food etc. Resident's families and/or responsible parties were notified via the facility's emergency notification system that an evacuation order was issued and preparations were underway to transfer residents. Residents were also verbally informed. By 6:00 p.m. the last bus transferring residents left the facility and facility staff conducted a facility wide sweep of the facility to ensure all residents had been transferred out. A review of the facility's incident investigation revealed that after the Sarasota County issued an emergency evacuation the contracted buses arrived without mechanical lifts to assist with transfer of dependent residents on to buses/vans from wheelchairs or beds. Efforts to obtain accessible buses were unsuccessful due to the extended turnaround time for the replacement buses to arrive. The facility contacted local Emergency Management [NAME] (EMS) to assist in the transfer of residents to the buses/vans. The buses left the facility at approximately 6:00 p.m. However, due to heavy evacuation traffic, the buses did not begin to arrive at receiving facilities until the following morning on 10/9/24 at approximately 2:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., approximately 6 to 7 hours after the buses left the facility.

She said the receiving facility did not have her medications, including her pain medications. The resident stated, The pain got so severe, I had to take Morphine twice to get it under control. On 11/18/24 at 2:50 p.m., in an interview related to the neglect of residents during the emergency evacuation, the Administrator said the evacuation locations listed on their Emergency Plan were in Bradenton, Port [NAME] and [NAME] Acres. He confirmed he was in charge of the evacuation and the decision was made to not evacuate to the local facilities but to facilities in Fort [NAME]. He said, We had to take what we could, there was no space on the stretcher transport. He verified the facility evacuated 112 residents and said he was not aware of any residents who did not receive their medications. On 11/19/23 at 1:00 p.m., in a telephone interview former Unit Manager Registered Nurse (RN) Staff I said she drove her car to the receiving facility in Fort [NAME]. She said residents were improperly assigned to coach buses instead of stretcher transportation. She functioned as a medication nurse at the receiving facility and documented, whatever I was able to do for the residents which wasn't a lot. Not all of their medications arrived so they missed some, they received what they had. On 11/19/24 at 3:00 p.m., in an interview CNA Staff L verified she was working on 10/8/24 when the decision was made to evacuate. She said she did not go on the bus with the residents, she drove her car to the receiving facility in Fort [NAME]. There was only one other CNA at the receiving facility to provide care to the residents. On 12/2/24 at 4:26 p.m., in an interview the Administrator said he made the decision on the back end to evacuate the residents 197 miles to Fort [NAME].

The findings included: Review of the facility's incident investigations revealed on 11/7/24 the facility Administrator initiated an investigation related to fracture and transfer of Resident #7 to a more acute level of care. The investigation noted on 10/8/24 at approximately 9:30 a.m., the Sarasota County issued an evacuation order ahead of category 3 hurricane [NAME] landfall. When the coach buses arrived, they did not have the necessary mechanical lifts for wheelchair bound residents. Due to the turnaround time to get replacement buses, time became a factor, as did the safety of the residents, due to the travel time and evacuation destination of Fort [NAME]. The local Emergency Medical Services department was contacted to assist in loading the residents, including Resident #7. Upon arrival to Fort [NAME], two highly skilled rehabilitation therapy staff from the receiving facility physically lifted Resident #7 off the bus. The resident's foot, came in contact with the ground surface, injuring the right foot. The facility Administrator documented on the incident investigation, The event was isolated and accidental without intention . No identified events required reporting as a 1/5 day . On 11/18/24 at 10:00 a.m., in an interview related to Resident #7's incident resulting in a fracture the Administrator said the resident used a full body mechanical lift for transfer. He verified Resident #7 did not evacuate on a stretcher transportation and said, It was the only thing we could do to get her out. He said therapy staff from the receiving facility physically carried Resident #7 off the bus caused the injury. He said it was, a matter of her foot coming in contact with the ground. On 11/18/24 at 12:30 p.m., in a follow up interview the Administrator said there was no space for Resident #7 on the stretcher transportation. They had EMTs (Emergency Medical Technicians) lift the resident and place her in a seat on a bus that was not equipped with a lift. Therapy staff from the receiving facility took the resident off the bus. The Administrator said, I would assume the injury is what they said, the foot came in contact with the ground. There was no way to get a mechanical lift on the bus because it was not a transport bus. She was on the last bus. The Administrator verified he did not immediately report the incident resulting in Resident #7's fractured ankle which could constitute neglect to the State Survey Agency and Adult Protective Services as required.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Many Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and interviews with residents, residents representative and staff, the facility failed to ensure appropriate transportation, availability of assistive devices, and adequate supervision of dependent residents during emergency evacuation related to hurricane [NAME] a major category 3 storm. This failure affected all 112 residents evacuated from the facility and resulted in the emergency transfer of 2 residents (#7 and #9) to the hospital and unaddressed excruciating pain for 1 resident (#19). Resident #19 had multiple fractures and wore a neck brace. Facility staff inappropriately laid the resident across two seats on a coach bus for a 197 miles trip that lasted approximately seven hours, causing excruciating pain and suffering. Resident #7 was wheelchair bound and required a full body mechanical lift for transfers. She was inappropriately transported approximately 197 miles for seven hours on a coach bus. She sustained an open fracture of the ankle when two staff members physically carried her off the bus. Resident #9 was oxygen dependent, used a continuous positive airway pressure machine and required the head of the bed elevated. On 10/11/24 the resident was improperly laid flat on a mattress on the floor. The resident was found unresponsive and emergently transferred to a local hospital. The facility's failure to have processes in place to ensure the safety of residents during emergency evacuation created a likelihood of serious harm, injury, impairment or death of dependent residents and resulted in the determination of a pattern of Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) at a scope and severity of L. On 12/6/24 at 10:30 p.m., the Administrator was informed of the determination of Immediate Jeopardy. The findings included: Cross reference F600, F835 and F867. The facility assessment reviewed and updated 7/31/24 noted a facility wide assessment was completed to determine resources necessary to care for residents during day to day operations and emergencies. The facility assessment noted as of 6/30/24, 18 residents were independent for transfer, 73 residents required assistance of one to two staff and 29 residents were dependent. 44 residents were independent for mobility, 58 used an assistive device to ambulate and 18 residents were in chair most of the time. The facility's Emergency Plan noted: Staffing for evacuation. Facility staff will accompany evacuating residents to their destination. Staff will accompany residents through the same modes of transportation utilized in evacuating the residents. Supplies will be packed for transit. Medications will be with the resident.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Many Any residents deemed unable to transport in a non-emergent vehicle or Sunset Lake vehicle, will be reviewed by the Medical Director or designee, and may by physician order be transferred via ambulance to a local hospital. 1. On 11/18/24 at 10:00 a.m., in an interview the Administrator said on 10/8/24 at approximately 9:30 a.m., Sarasota County said the facility had to evacuate. The police came in person and told them they had to leave. 16 residents were transported via stretcher to a receiving facility in [NAME] Acres. 96 residents were transported via motorcoach buses to two facilities in Fort [NAME]. The Administrator said the trip lasted three hours plus evacuation traffic. He said, It was probably one of the worst experiences of my life. The Administrator said the former Director of Nursing (DON) was responsible for residents medication. He said, Could it have been better? Yes. Orders were in the electronic medical record when the residents arrived in Fort [NAME] therefore there was no interruption in care. When asked if residents missed any of their medications, the Administrator said, Not to my knowledge. When asked about Resident #7's fractured ankle the Administrator said the incident was transfer related. He said, When you just touch her she almost breaks. The therapist told him the resident's foot came in contact with the ground and it fractured. He said Resident #7 required a full body mechanical lift. On 10/8/24 Emergency Medical Technicians physically lifted the resident with a mechanical lift sling and put her on a bus. He verified Resident #7 was not transported via stretcher and said, It was the only thing we could do to get her out. The Administrator said Resident #7 sustained the fracture when trained therapists from the receiving facility physically lifted the resident to get her off the bus. The Administrator said there was one other resident who was transferred to the hospital during the evacuation, she was not in good shape. He could not remember what happened to the residents hospitalized during the evacuation and would have to look it up. Review of the facility's incident investigations revealed on 10/8/24 the Sarasota County issued an emergency evacuation order with the requirement to be out by midnight. The ordered buses arrived but did not have lifts for those needing assistance for wheelchairs. Due to the turnaround time to get replacement buses, time became a factor, as did the safety of the residents, due to the travel time and distance to Fort [NAME]. To safely assist in loading the residents, the local skilled Emergency Management Services was contacted. The buses left the facility at approximately 6:00 p.m. Due to heavy evacuation traffic, the buses arrived on 10/9/24 at approximately 2:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. As Resident #7 was being unloaded, the therapists recounted that her foot came in contact with the ground and a fracture was suspected. EMS arrived and transported Resident #7 to a local hospital. Clinical record review for Resident #7 revealed a Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) Assessment with a target date of 9/3/24 which noted Resident #7 required substantial/maximal assistance with chair to bed transfer (Helper does more than half the effort). The care plan initiated on 9/5/23 noted the resident required a mechanical lift with two person assist for all transfers. On 5/13/24 the care plan intervention specified to use care during transfers and during activities of daily living due to fragile condition, osteoporosis (weak, brittle bones) with frail bones.

The daughter said the next message she received was that her mother was sent to the hospital for a broken leg she sustained when staff was getting her off a coach bus. The resident's daughter said her mother underwent emergency surgery and was discharged to a local skilled nursing facility. She said Resident #7 did not receive her seizure medications, had a seizure, went back to the hospital and died. Residents Affected - Many On 12/4/24 at 2:15 p.m., in an interview the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR) said Resident #7 was totally dependent for mobility and confirmed Resident #7 should have evacuated by stretcher but was not. The DOR said staff used a mechanical lift sling to physically carry Resident #7 off the bus. She yelled to staff carrying the resident to watch her foot, then realized it was bleeding. 2. On 12/3/24 at 3:00 p.m., in an interview Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Staff CC said Resident #19 was evacuated in a coach bus and was in severe pain when she arrived at the receiving facility, and throughout her stay. She said on 10/11/24 they were going to bring her back on a coach bus. She told the Administrator she would not have the resident travel on a coach bus and would pay out of her own pocket if necessary to bring the resident back on a stretcher. On 12/4/24 at 10:15 a.m., in an interview Resident #19 said staff carried her on a sling to a seat on the bus. The resident said, I bumped into every seat on the way to the back of the bus. I was screaming in pain the entire time. I bounced onto every chair, I hurt my knee and hip. They laid me across two seats toward the back of the bus. Resident #19 said there were no nurses on the bus to help her reposition, administer pain medication or offer food or water during the nearly eight hours bus trip to the receiving facility. On 12/4/24 at 2:15 p.m., in an interview the Director of Rehab (DOR) said Resident #19 was totally dependent for mobility. She said Resident #19 should have been evacuated by stretcher but was not. She verified Resident #19 was physically carried off the bus when she arrived at the receiving facility. Clinical record review revealed Resident #19 had an admission date of 9/11/24. Diagnoses included, Diabetes Mellitus, nondisplaced fracture of second cervical vertebra and multiple right rib fractures, fracture of the right tibia (lower leg bone), and weakness. The admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment with a target date of 9/15/24 noted the resident's cognition was moderately impaired with a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 12. Resident #19 was dependent on staff for mobility, including rolling left and right, moving from sitting on side of the bed to lying flat on the bed. Resident #19 frequently experienced pain which occasionally effected sleep and interfered with activities of daily living. The physician's orders as of 9/11/24 included Dilaudid (narcotic) 4 milligrams (mg) three times a day for pain, and Dilaudid 4 mg one tablet by mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain level of 4 to 10. Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for October 2024 lacked documentation Resident #19 received the scheduled Dilaudid on 10/8/24 at 6:00 p.m. during transport to the receiving facility, on 10/10/24 at 6:00 p.m., and on 10/11/24 at 6:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m., and 6:00 p.m. 3.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety lying flat on a mat. Staff J said Resident #9 was not evacuated with her CPAP (Continuous Positive Air Pressure) machine. When she notified the Director of Nursing, he said he forgot the machine. Clinical record review for Resident #9 revealed an admission date of 9/25/24. Diagnoses included morbid obesity, anxiety disorder, sleep apnea, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), acute and chronic respiratory failure. Resident #9 required oxygen at 3 liters per minute and a CPAP machine. Residents Affected - Many The admission MDS with a target date of 9/29/23 noted Resident #9's cognition was intact with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15. The resident required partial/moderate assistance to safely move from lying on the back to sitting on the side of the bed with no back support. Review of the nursing progress notes revealed a late entry dated 10/11/24 at 12:30 p.m. which noted the resident was presenting respiratory failure, respiratory distress, and altered mental status while at the evacuation center. The resident was transferred to a local Emergency Room. On 11/19/24 at 12:00 p.m., in an interview the Administrator verified nursing requested a bed for Resident #9 but did not receive one. On 11/19/24 at 1:00 p.m., in an interview Registered Nurse (RN) staff I said she was concerned about Resident #9's respiratory status. She told the Administrator and the DON several times during the evacuation that Resident #9 needed to sleep in a bed to elevate the head of the bed as per physician's order. On 12/4/24 at 4:00 p.m., in a telephone interview Resident #9 said they did not bring her CPAP machine when she evacuated. The oxygen concentrator kept beeping. She told the DON about the oxygen, and the CPAP machine and that she couldn't breathe when lying flat. The DON told her to, Lay down, we will figure it out in the morning. Resident #9 said on 10/8/24 the facility had them sit in their wheelchairs for hours, since 8:00 a.m., until they arrived at the receiving facility. She said they did not provide water, food or medications for 24 hours. On 10/11/24 she woke up gasping for air. Staff told her they will be loading soon to go back to [NAME]. She said she did not remember anything else. She was unconscious and was transported by ambulance to a local hospital. 4. On 12/5/24 at 9:51 a.m., the Medical Director said she was not specifically asked to review any residents that may not be safe to evacuate to another facility or may have to go to the hospital in lieu of an evacuation site. She said she sent a message to all staff to let them know it was a low threshold to send anyone to the hospital. I had three lists of people to evacuate. One was for wheelchair, one by stretcher and one was for ambulatory residents. I didn't know how long it took them to get to Fort [NAME]. That was a big surprise to me and big shock that it took that long. This evacuation was a big warning we had some work to do going forward. No one told me about the residents having missed medications. No one told me about Resident #7's injury and having to be transferred to the hospital, or Resident #9 having respiratory distress. 5. On 12/5/24 at approximately 5:30 p.m., in an interview the Administrator said there were no concerns identified during the evacuation warranting a discussion in QAPI (Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement) or any corrective actions.

Based on observation, record review and interviews, the facility failed to ensure 3 ( Licensed Nurses N, HH, and I) of 5 sampled nurses reviewed received training and were competent in checking the function of the wander alert bands (alert staff when a resident leaves a designated safe area) to prevent cognitively impaired residents unsafe wandering and elopement. The findings included: Clinical record review for Resident #16 revealed an admission date of 7/13/22. Diagnoses included Encephalopathy, Anxiety Disorder, Adult Failure to Thrive and generalized weakness. The elopement risk evaluation dated 10/11/23 noted an elopement risk score of 16. The form noted a score of 15 or above indicated a high risk for elopement. Review of facility's incident investigations showed on 7/6/23 at approximately 7:30 p.m., Resident #16 was found outside of facility doors. A staff member quickly discovered her and returned her safely back to her room. The investigation noted Resident #16's cognition was moderately impaired with a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 07. The resident was wearing a wander alert bracelet at the time of the elopement. The wander alert bracelet was checked every shift to ensure placement and functioning. The facility's investigation noted the wander alert bracelet was sounding when staff brought the resident back into the facility. The resident's care plan initiated on 6/7/24 noted staff was to verify placement and check the functioning of the wander alert bracelet daily. On 12/4/24 at 10:35 a.m., Resident #16 was observed lying in her bed. The resident had a wander alert bracelet to her left ankle. When asked how she checked the function of the wander alert bracelet, Registered Nurse (RN) Staff N said the device had a green light. Observation of the wander alert with Staff N did not show a green light. Staff N said she was not able to check the function of the wander alert bracelet and said she's never checked the device for anything, except that it was in place on her ankle.

Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interviews, and record review, the facility's administration failed to utilize its resources effectively to prevent the neglect of residents by failing to develop and implement an effective Emergency Plan emergency plan, including contingency planning for evacuation transportation and failing to adequately train and verify competency of staff to respond to natural disasters including emergency evacuation procedures in a safe and orderly manner. Residents Affected - Many This failure resulted in avoidable serious harm of residents #7, #9 and #19 and created a likelihood of serious injury of 112 residents during emergency evacuation on 10/8/24 ahead of category 3 hurricane [NAME] landfall. Resident #19 had multiple fractures and suffered excruciating pain when staff inappropriately laid her across two seats for approximately 197 miles and seven hours during transport to the receiving facility. Resident #7 was evacuated in a coach bus instead of necessary transportation equipped with a lift. She suffered a fractured ankle when receiving facility staff physically carried her off the bus. Resident #9 had a diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and required the use of oxygen, a continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) machine and the head of the bed elevated. She suffered serious harm when she was not evacuated with the CPAP machine and was improperly laid flat on a mattress on the floor. The resident went unresponsive and was emergently transferred to a local hospital. On 12/6/24 at 10:30 p.m., the Administrator was notified of the determination of ongoing widespread Immediate Jeopardy (IJ).

Management personnel will be staffed according to the A and B Team profile. Staff members, as defined by positions within the facility, are assigned to either A or B teams prior to, during, and after an emergency or disaster situation. The Medical Director was included in the A team and was responsible to oversee medical care upon activation of the plan and provide medical guidance. The Director of Clinical Services (Director of Nursing) was responsible to monitor resident condition and coordinate care with Unit Managers and Staff. In the event an evacuation is ordered for the facility, the Incident Commander or Administrator oversees the evacuation procedure upon declaration of evacuation and prepares residents and supplies for transit. The Unit Managers were responsible to ensure residents are prepared for transit and ensure residents are safely loaded into transportation. The plan noted in the event of an evacuation, facility staff will remain with the residents through the entire evacuation process until released by the Incident Commander or Executive Director. Facility staff will accompany evacuating residents to their destination through the same modes of transportation utilized in evacuating the residents. The plan noted supplies will be packed for transit. Medications will be with the resident. The facility had mutual aid agreements with two transport companies (Transport Companies A and B) and two facility owned vans (van #1: 12 seats; van #2: 5 seats). Transport company A agreement the facility Administrator signed on 4/22/24 noted, It is understood that (Transport Company A) is under contract with Sarasota county Department of Emergency Management and that in the event of a disaster or emergency, Sarasota County Department of Emergency Management has the authority to direct all evacuation procedures.

F 0867 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Many Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop corrective plans of action. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and staff interviews the facility failed to implement corrective actions for identified quality deficiencies related to staff training and competency to respond appropriately to natural disasters to prevent the neglect of residents during natural disasters and emergency evacuation of residents. On 10/8/24 the facility did not ensure the safety of 112 residents during emergency evacuation ahead of category 3 hurricane [NAME] landfall. The facility did not ensure transportation to meet the needs of wheelchair and stretcher bound residents and failed to staff each transport bus or van with nursing staff to ensure residents safety, provision of care and administration of necessary physician ordered medications. Resident #19 had multiple fractures and suffered excruciating pain when staff inappropriately laid her across two seats for approximately 197 miles and seven hours during transport to the receiving facility. Resident #7 was evacuated in a coach bus instead of necessary transportation equipped with a lift. She suffered a fractured ankle when receiving facility staff physically carried her off the bus. Resident #9 had a diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and required the use of oxygen, a continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) machine and the head of the bed elevated. She suffered serious harm when she was not evacuated with the CPAP machine and was improperly laid flat on a mattress on the floor. The resident went unresponsive and was emergently transferred to a local hospital. Random record review for residents #7, #9, #19, #12, #23 and #24 showed the residents did not receive necessary medications, including insulin, intravenous antibiotics, anticonvulsants, narcotics and/or other necessary medications during transport and at the receiving facilities. The facility failure to have an effective Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement program that identify quality deficiencies and implement appropriate corrective actions created a likelihood of serious harm, serious injury or death of other residents and resulted in the determination of widespread ongoing Immediate Jeopardy (IJ). On 12/6/24 at 10:30 p.m., the Administrator was notified of the determination of Immediate Jeopardy (IJ). The findings included: Cross reference to F600, F689, F835 The facility's Emergency Preparedness Plan noted the facility Administrator will review the drill critiques or after-action reports upon completion of drills or actual emergency events where the CEMP (Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan) has been activated. Areas identified as being deficient or needing approval upon, the facility Administrator will ensure that new staff education is created, and staff receive the new education.
