Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a
resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed
consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, facility policy review, and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure 3 (Resident
#3, #27 and #51) of 6 residents reviewed for accidents were assessed for alternative interventions prior to
the use of side rails. This had the potential to have side rails installed when alternatives with less chance of
negative consequences could be utilized. The facility census was 59 with 31 residents who had side rails in
use.
The findings included:
The facility policy, Proper Use of Side Rails (revised 1/25/23) documented, The purpose of these guidelines
are to ensure the safe use of side rails as resident mobility aids and to prohibit the use of side rails as
restraints unless necessary to treat a residents' medical symptoms.
General Guidelines:
#6. Less restrictive interventions that will be incorporated include:
a. Providing restorative care to enhance abilities to stand freely and walk.
b. Providing trapeze to increase bed mobility
c. Placing the bed lower to the floor and surrounding the bed with a soft mat.
d. Equipping the resident with a device that monitors attempts to rise.
e. Providing staff monitoring at night with periodic assisted toileting for residents attempting to arise to use
the bathroom.
f. Furnishing visual and verbal reminders to use the call bell for residents who can comprehend this
information.
7. Documentation will indicate if less restrictive approaches are not successful, prior to considering the use
of side rails.
1. Review of the clinical record showed Resident #3 was admitted [DATE] with diagnoses including
dementia, weakness, and depression.

The Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) (standardized assessment tool that measures health status in
nursing home residents) with an assessment reference date of 6/21/23 documented Resident #3 required
extensive assistance with bed mobility and limited assistance with transfers.
The MDS noted Resident #3's cognitive skills for daily decision making were moderately impaired.
Residents Affected - Few
The clinical record showed a physician order dated 3/16/23 for assist rails on bilateral sides of the bed for
mobility.
On 9/5/23 at 2:34 p.m., and 9/6/23 at 10:27 a.m., Resident #3 was observed with side rails in the raised
position on both sides of the bed. Resident #3 said she did not know how the side rails got there but they
had been in place for a long time.
2. Review of the clinical record revealed Resident #27 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
chronic kidney disease stage 3 unspecified, weakness, and unilateral primary osteoarthritis.
The Quarterly MDS dated [DATE] documented Resident #27 required supervision with transfers and
ambulation. The MDS noted Resident #27's cognitive skills for daily decision making were intact.
The clinical record showed a physician order dated 12/1/21 for grab bars as enablers on both sides of the
bed for mobility.
On 9/5/23 at 2:05 p.m., Resident #27 was observed with side rails raised on both sides of the bed. The
resident said she did not ask to have the rails placed on the bed but said she did use them to move in bed.
3. Review of the clinical record revealed Resident #51 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
dementia, history of falls, muscle weakness, anxiety, and depression.
The admission MDS with ARD 8/18/23 documented Resident #51 required extensive assistance of 1 with
bed mobility and transfers. The MDS noted Resident #51's cognitive skills for daily decision making were
severely impaired.
The physician order dated 8/19/23 specified assist rails to bilateral bedside for mobility.
On 9/5/23 at 3:05 p.m., Resident #51 was observed in bed with side rails in the raised position on both
sides of the bed.
On 9/6/23 at 11:51 a.m., in an interview the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) said the process for side
rails was for the therapy department to assess the resident to see if they can benefit from the side rails. The
ADON said if the resident qualified to have the side rails placed, then we get a consent form signed by the
resident or family. The ADON said once an order is received from the physician, maintenance will come and
place the side rails.
On 9/6/23 at 12:25 p.m., in an interview the Director of Nursing (DON) said all bed rails in the facility are
considered side rails. The DON said the process for side rails was for Occupational Therapist (OT) to
complete an assessment to see if they can use the side rail or not. If they can benefit from the side rails to
move in bed and transfer then the OT completes the Brief Initial Therapy Eval Review and the nurse obtains
an order from the physician.

On 9/6/23 at 12:39 p.m., in an interview the Therapy Director, said OT completes the side rail evaluations
for the residents and determines if they are necessary or not.
On 9/6/23 at 12:55 p.m., in an interview the OT said she completes the side rail screens with the Physical
Therapist (PT) during treatment. If a resident can turn and use the side rail to reposition themselves then
they would benefit from the use of the side rail. The OT said prior to initiating the side rails, we assess the
resident for 30 minutes to 70 minutes and sometimes over 1-4 days to see if they benefit from the side rail
use. The OT said all the interventions attempted prior to use of the rails were documented in the therapy
notes.
On 9/6/23 at 1:37 p.m., a review of the OT notes for Residents #3, #27 and #51 revealed no documentation
of a side rail assessment or interventions attempted prior to installation of the side rails.
On 9/6/23 at 2:26 p.m., the OT confirmed she did not have documentation of the interventions attempted
prior to the use of the side rails for Residents #3, #27 and #51.
On 9/6/23 at 3:15 p.m., in an interview the Therapy Director said the therapy notes do not document any
information regarding side rails or interventions attempted prior to use. The Therapy Director said the
therapist completes the Brief Initial Therapy Eval Review for use of the side rails. She said if the residents
benefit from it and they can turn, get up and reposition themselves with the side rails then we recommend
it. The nurse is responsible for obtaining the physician order and the consent from the resident and or
family. The Therapy Director confirmed the form used did not have documentation of interventions
attempted or the reason for the side rails.
On 9/6/23 at 3:35 p.m., the DON, she said the facility used the Brief Initial Therapy Eval Review form as the
assessment for use of the side rails. The DON said we call them side rails not enablers or assist bars. The
therapy department determines if the resident should have the side rails or not. It is not used as a restraint;
it is used to assist the resident and improve their function and ability. The DON said she was not aware
alternate interventions were required before placing the side rails.

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observation, review of facility policy and procedures and staff interviews, the facility failed to
ensure eye drops and insulin were properly dated when opened and stored 2 of 3 medication carts
reviewed. Without an open date on the medication there was no way to know when it would expire. This had
the potential for residents to receive medications that could create hazardous health consequences.
The findings included:
The facility policy Medication Storage in the Facility (revised 1/18) documented Medications and biological's
are stored safely, securely, and properly, following manufacturer's recommendations or those of the
supplier.
Expiration dates (beyond use date) of dispensed medications shall be determined by the pharmacist at the
time of dispensing.
When the original seal of a manufacturer's container or vial is initially broken, the container or vial will be
dated. The nurse shall place a date opened sticker on the medication and enter the date opened and the
new date of expiration. The expiration date of the vial or container will be 30 days unless the manufacturer
recommends another date or recommendations/guidelines require different dating.
On 9/5/23 at 10:20 a.m., during an observation of medication cart #2 with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
Staff A the following was observed:
1. One open Humalog Kwik Pen insulin without a date of when it was opened.
The pharmacy label documented to discard after 28 days.
Photographic evidence obtained.
2. One open Humalog Kwik Pen insulin with the resident name partially removed from the label. There was
no open date on the insulin pen and no open date on the pharmacy bag containing the insulin pen.
Photographic evidence obtained.
The findings in medication cart #2 were verified by Staff A.
On 9/55/23 at 10:43 a.m., during an observation of medication cart #3 with LPN Staff B the following was
observed.
3. One Humalog Kwik Pen insulin with no open date on the pharmacy bag or the insulin pen. The pharmacy
label specified to discard the medication after 28 days.
