Findings included:
Resident #250's admission record revealed an admission date of 3/18/22 with medical diagnoses of major
depressive disorder and heart disease.
Resident #250's medical certification for Medicaid long-term care services and patient transfer form (3008),
dated 3/17/2022, revealed the resident required a healthcare surrogate for decision making and had an
advanced care planning selection of DO NOT Resuscitate (DNR).

the representative had documentation within her bag that indicated she was the resident's healthcare
surrogate. The Representative stated that should Resident #250 be found non-responsive and without

status of full code, which indicated that should the resident be found non-responsive and without breathing,
live saving measures would be provided.

code status selection. Also, the online medical physician orders should match the hard medical chart
related to advanced directive selection.
An interview with Staff C, LPN/Unit Manager on 03/21/22 at 1:14 p.m., revealed the admitting nurse should
review a resident's admission paperwork to determine the advanced directives. This was done
in-conjunction with speaking with both the resident and/or resident's representative.
An interview on 03/21/22 at 1:18 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), Regional Director of Clinical

Interviews on 03/24/22 at both 11:27 a.m. with Staff P, Registered Nurse (RN) and 11:30 a.m. with Staff O,
LPN confirmed if a resident requested to go outside and smoke an aide would go with them. There was
usually a CNA assigned to smoking duties. If a resident was exhibiting aggressive behaviors or having an
outburst, they would be redirected and reapproached.
An interview with Staff N, Certified Nursing Assistance (CNA) on 03/24/22 at 1:07 p.m., revealed all
smoking materials were located and provided to the residents outside where a CNA stayed with them until
they were finished. This was the same procedure during the evening and night shift. The memory unit had
an outside patio that could be used for residents that wanted to go outside and smoke.
An interview on 03/24/22 at 4:26 p.m. with Staff ZZ, LPN revealed, on the night of 12/31/22, there was an
emergency with another resident that required immediate attention by staff. Upon Staff ZZ's arrival to the
west unit, Resident #251 was standing by the nursing station screaming, saying she wanted to leave the
facility against medical advice because someone stole her cigarettes. Resident #251 kept repeating the
desire to walk around the city. Staff ZZ, LPN stated she was not sure what specifically caused the resident
to escalate in behaviors. Staff ZZ stated the resident's behaviors of screaming and yelling continued to
escalate even after being moved onto the memory unit which resulted in the police needing to be called
along with emergency medical services. Staff ZZ confirmed the memory care unit also had an outside patio
area for residents to sit and also smoke cigarettes if needed.
An interview on 03/24/22 at 1:45 p.m. with Staff XX, Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner (ARNP)
revealed Resident #251 was a patient that was not able to express themselves well due to having confusion
and forgetfulness. The ARNP stated it could take time for a resident to adjust to their new environment, and
that new places could take a toll on a resident. Residents might have behavioral changes and if they had an
outburst or change in behavior, it might just be the approach to the situation as to why they were not
calming down.
An interview on 03/24/22 at 2:43 p.m. with the Executive Director (ED), also known as the Nursing Home
Administrator, revealed on 12/31/21 Resident #251 started displaying a change in demeanor with
escalating behaviors of screaming, yelling, and wanting to leave the facility. The resident was moved onto
the secured memory care unit. However, this did not help the resident and the behaviors only worsened. At
this point outside services were called and the resident was sent to the hospital. The resident was baker
acted at the hospital.
During this interview, the ED said usually during morning meetings, these types of situations would be
reviewed, however, the facility was waiting on information from the hospital which did not come. The ED
stated he was not aware of any reasons or factors as to why the resident was having the escalating
behaviors. The ED confirmed the expectation during these situations was for the staff to attempt to
deescalate the resident's behaviors. If the resident requested to smoke and was having a change in
behavior, one intervention to deescalate the situation would be to go outside and smoke with the resident.
Resident #251's medical record was reviewed during this interview. The ED confirmed he was not aware of
the notations that the resident had requested to go outside and smoke, was denied, and therefore this
could have been the root-cause as to why the resident had a change in behavior.
A policy review of Behavior Management, revised on 3/21/2019, revealed the policy is to Resident with
