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
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide immediate and adequate supervision
after a resident's family member notified facility staff of a resident voicing R1 was going to escape out of his
window and implement 15-minute visual checks as directed by the plan of care, for a cognitively impaired
resident at risk for elopement for one (R1) of three residents reviewed for elopement in a sample of three.
These failures resulted in (R1) a cognitively impaired resident with a previous elopement attempt from the
facility, exiting the facility through his room window without staff knowledge or supervision on 9/3/25. (R1)
was found across the road from the facility, a block away and close to active railroad tracks. These failures
resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy.While the immediacy was removed on 9-11-25, the facility remains out
of compliance at a severity Level II as additional time is needed to evaluate the implementation and
effectiveness of their removal plan and Quality Assurance monitoring.Findings include:The facility's
Elopements and Wandering Residents Policy, dated 2025, documents Policy: The facility ensure that
residents who exhibit wandering behavior and/or are at risk for elopement receive adequate supervision to
prevent accidents, receive care in accordance with their person-centered plan of care addressing the
unique factors contributing to wandering or elopement risk. Definitions: Wandering: is random or repetitive
locomotion that may be goal-directed (example: the person appears to be searching for something such as
an exit) or not-goal directed or aimless. Elopement: Occurs when a resident leaves the premises or a safe
area without authorization (an order for discharge or leave of absence) and/or any necessary supervision to
do so. Policy Explanation and Compliance Guidelines: 3. The facility shall establish and utilize a systematic
approach to monitoring and managing residents at risk for elopement or unsafe wandering, including
identification and assessment of risk, evaluation and analysis of hazards and risks, implementing
interventions to reduce hazards and risks, and monitoring for effectiveness and modifying interventions
when necessary. 4. Monitoring and Managing Residents at Risk for Elopement or Unsafe Wandering: A.
Resident will be assessed for risk of elopement and unsafe wandering upon admission throughout their
stay by the interdisciplinary care plan team. B. The interdisciplinary Team will evaluation the unique factors
contributing to risk in order to develop a person-centered care plan. C. Interventions to increase staff
awareness of the resident's risk, modify the residents' behaviors, or to minimize risk associated with
hazards will be added to the resident's care plan and communicated to appropriate staff. D. Adequate
supervision will be provided to help prevent accidents or elopements. E. Charge Nurses and unit managers
will monitor the implementation of interventions, response to interventions, and document accordingly.R1's

speaking to V4/R1's Family Member, or how he got back to the facility on 9/3/25.On 9/8/25 at 3:05 PM this
surveyor and V1/Administrator watched the video surveillance on the hallway R1 resided the night R1 left
the facility unattended through his window on 9/3/25. At 7:04 PM a male with a meal tray cart (identified as
V10/Cook) was observed slightly opening R1's room and grabbing R1's meal tray. At 7:36 PM two females
(identified as V5/CNA and V6/CNA) were observed running down the hallway towards R1's room. Once
they arrived to R1's room, they both look into (R1's) room and immediately started running back up the
hallway. At 7:46 PM two females (identified as V5 and V7) were observed walking (R1) back into the
facility's back door. (R1) was observed to have pants, shoes, and a t-shirt on. V1/Administrator confirmed at
this time that R1 was on 15-minute checks and that no staff was observed on the camera going in R1's
room and checking on R1 every 15 minutes. V1 stated staff should have been implementing R1's 15-minute
checks and staff should have physically gone into R1's room and checked on R1 when performing the
15-minute checks. On 9/9/25 at 1:50 PM this surveyor, V1/Administrator, V2/Interim Director of Nursing, and
V20/Regional Director of operations watched the video surveillance on the hallway R1 resided the night R1
left the facility unattended on 9/3/25 between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM. From 6:00 PM to 6:28 PM R1's door is
slightly cracked open. At 6:29 PM R1 is observed opening his door and standing slightly in the doorway. At
that time V6/CNA is observed walking down the hallway and goes into a different resident's room, next to
R1's room. At 6:31 PM V5/CNA is observed going into R1's room to deliver R1's meal tray and then
immediately leaves R1's room. From 6:32 PM to 7:00 PM no other staff is observed checking on R1. During
this time V1/Administrator and V2/Interim Director of Nursing both verify that R1 was not physically being
checked on every 15-minutes as implemented and should have been.On 9/9/25 at 6:38 PM V17/Prior
Administrator-in-Training stated she was the administrator in the building when R1 attempted to elope from
the facility on 8/22/25. V17 stated, After (R1) attempted to elope, (R1) was determined to be a risk for
elopement, so I placed a wander guard on (R1) and implemented 15-minute checks. (R1) was ambulatory
and when he attempted to elope on 8/22/25, staff could not get him to come back into the facility. (R1)
walked at least five blocks across main roads and railroad tracks (with staff present) and then finally agreed
to get back into the facility van and come back to the facility with us. (R1) is not safe to be out in the
community by himself. On 9/8/25 at 11:59 AM V7/RN (Registered Nurse) stated, The past two weeks prior
to (R1) getting out of the facility on 9/3/25, he was verbalizing that he wanted to go home, or he wanted to
get out. (R1) never stated how he was going to get out and rarely ever left his room. I didn't start work on
the night of 9/3/25 until around 6:00 PM. While I was getting report between 6:00 PM and 6:15 PM,
(V4/R1's Family Member) had called the facility and told me (R1) was wanting to leave and said he was
going to get out through his window. I then told (V5/CNA and V6/CNA) to keep an eye on him and check on
him periodically through the night. I didn't go down and look at the window myself to see if he could get out
at that point. The windows never open very far so I didn't figure there was any way he could get out through
his window. Around 7:30 PM the police department called the facility. I was doing my medication pass and
had gone to answer the phone. The police department told me that (V4) had called them and stated (R1)
had left the building. I then yelled to (V5) and (V6) to go check on him. (V5) ran down to (R1's) room and
noticed (R1) was not in the room. (V5) jumped out the window to go look for (R1) and I told staff to start
looking for (R1), and then I went outside to look for (R1). I was in the back parking lot looking for (R1) when
I saw (V5). We both jumped in my car to go look for (R1). There are railroad tracks, and he was half a block
from the tracks when we found (R1). We found (R1) approximately a block away from the facility. (R1)
agreed to get in the car and allowed me to drive him back to the facility. We arrived back to the facility

around 7:45 PM. On 9/10/25 at 12:25 PM V22/LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated, (V4/R1's Family
Member) called on 9/3/25 while I was giving report to (V7/RN). It would have been approximately between
6:00 PM and 6:15 PM. (V4/R1's Family Member) told me (R1) and (V4) had been arguing and that (R1) had
told (V4) he was going to escape out of his window tonight. I assured (V4) that we would keep an eye on
(R1), I then reported what (V4) had stated to (V7). I did not go down to (R1's) room and assess (R1) or his
window. I would have never thought (R1) would have been able to get through his window. The windows
usually only open four inches. On 9/8/25 at 1:33 PM V4/R1's Family Member stated, (R1) had called me
between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM the night of 9/3/25 and told me he wanted to leave the facility and that he
was almost able to get through his window. I got off the phone and called the facility and spoke to some
nurse and told them what (R1) had stated. They told me they would check on (R1). Later, that night around
7:30 PM (R1) had called me and stated he had got out his window and was walking down the street. We
then got disconnected so I attempted to call the facility and could not get anyone to answer so I called the
local police department and let them know. I was told by the facility (R1) was found around a block away. On
9/8/25 at 11:01 AM V5/CNA stated she was working on the unit where R1 resided when R1 got out of the
building on 9/3/25. V5 stated, I do remember (V7/RN) stating (V4/R1's Family Member) had called and told
(V7) (R1) was saying he was going to escape out his window and to check on (R1) periodically. It was
around 6:15 PM. I did not go down there immediately to check on (R1) but do know I had checked on (R1)
at some time, I just don't remember the time. I did not frequently check on (R1) because his room is at the
end of the hallway, and I didn't figure there was any way for (R1) to escape since (R1) would have to walk
past the nurse's station or try to go through an exit (which he had a wander guard on). I did not look at
(R1's) window though to see if he could get through it and should have. I worked with (V6/CNA) that night
on that hallway. I was the one in charge of the 15-minute checks. I was not sure why (R1) was on the
15-minute checks. It does not say anywhere. If I had known, I would have kept a better eye on him. I do
physically go down and check on (R1) when I am completing the 15-minute checks, but I may not get down
there every 15 minutes. I did not know (R1) had attempted to get out of the facility prior to 9/3/25 or that he
was a high-risk wanderer. I have never been trained on how to access a resident's care plan or if I even
have access. V5 stated the night R1 got out his window on 9/3/25 V5 was sitting at the nurse's station
charting. V7 had told V5 she received a phone call that R1 had escaped from the building. V5 reported she
immediately ran down to R1's room, noticed R1's window was wide open and R1 was not in his room. V5
stated she immediately told V7 and V5 jumped through the window in an attempt to locate R1. V5 reported
she did not notice anything broken on the window. V5 noticed V7 out in the parking lot and got in the car
with V7 to go locate R1. V5 stated, I got in (V7's) car in the back parking lot. We took a right out of the
parking lot. Then at the stop sign we took another right, then a left at the following stop sign. (R1) was
observed to be right at the corner of that block by the stop sign about a half block from the railroad tracks.
(R1) was cooperative and did get back in the car with us. On 9/8/25 12:30 PM V6/CNA stated she had no
means to check on R1 that night and that she did not know anything about him. V6 denies V7/RN telling her
to keep an eye on R1 or that R1 was wanting to escape on 9/3/25. V6 stated, I don't remember the last time
I saw (R1) that night. I honestly didn't even know who (R1) was. On 9/8/25 at 2:05 PM V10/Cook stated, I
didn't witness anything on 9/3/25 regarding (R1). They just said he was out of the building, and they were
looking for him. I don't recall how (R1) got out his window. I would have picked up (R1's) room tray after
7:00 PM, but I don't even know if (R1) was in there. (R1) leaves his door cracked open and I just grabbed
(R1's) tray. I didn't put my eyes on (R1). V10 stated no one interviewed him the night of 9/3/25

to ask if he had observed R1 that night or not.On 9/8/25 at 11:26 AM V3/Maintenance Director reports
when he came into work on 9/4/25, V3 was told about R1 escaping out his window without staff knowledge.
V3 stated, I went down to (R1's) room to observe his window. There are locks located on the bottom of the
window seals, they only allow the windows to be open four inches. When I got down to his room, a visible
scratch was observed along the bottom of the window seal, and the lock was observed to be next to the
other four-inch lock. It looked like (R1) had been working on moving the bottom lock over for a while. I had
to physically loosen the set screws and slide it back down to the original position and then set the screws
again. I did put a new lock on it with the pointed screws. V3 stated it would have taken R1 a while to get the
bottom lock to slide over, R1 would have had to use excessive force, and it was not something that could
have happened quickly. V3 reported the only other way to get the bottom window locks to move is by
utilizing a special tool to undo the locks. On 9/8/25 at 2:54 PM V1/Administrator stated she would have
expected someone (a staff member) to immediately go down and assess R1's window at that time and then
move R1 closer to the nurse's station to be monitored closely, after receiving a phone call that R1 was
wanting to leave the facility and escape through his window. V1 stated, (R1) most definitely should have
been checked on more than 15 minutes at that time if staff were aware he was voicing he was going to get
out the window. The immediate jeopardy started on 9/3/25 when V7/RN and V22/LPN were made aware
byV4/R1's Family Member of R1 voicing he was going to escape out his window and failed to immediately
assess R1's window or immediately provide additional supervision. V1/Administrator and V20/Regional
Director of Operations were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 9/10/25 at 11:35 AM. On 9/13/25 the
surveyor confirmed through interview and record review that the facility took the following actions to remove
the Immediate Jeopardy: R1's care plan was reviewed and update to reflect current wandering and
elopement risk by V23/MDS Coordinator on 9/4/25.V20/Director of Operations reviewed all resident's MDS
sections E and associated CAA (Care Area Assessment) on 9/4/25 and all concerns identified were
addressed or updated on 9/4/25.V24/Social Service re-evaluated residents at risk for wandering/elopement,
including R1, using the elopement risk assessment tool in PCC (Point Click Care) on
9/4/25.V1/Administrator in serviced all nursing staff on wandering, elopement, and resident safety on 9/4/25
and continued in-serving staff on leave by their next shift. R1 assessed for Memory Care Unit and moved to
a room on Memory Care for safety. R1's window faces an interior courtyard. V1/Administrator, V2/Interim
Director of Nursing, V20/Director of Operations, V24/Social Service Director, V20/Regional Director of
Operations assessed all residents to determine if other residents should be placed in the memory care unit
on 9/4/25.R1's room with the damaged window was repaired on 9/4/25 by V3/Maintenance Director.V7/RN
completed a head-to-toe assessment on R1 upon his retorn to his room on 9/3/25.On 9/4/25 V25/Chief
Nursing Officer audited all residents care plans and diagnosis to determine if any other resident needed to
be placed in the locked dementia unit, needed a wander guard, or needed more frequent checks. On 9/4/24
V3/Maintenance director verified all window safety measure in place to ensure that window cannot be
opened to a measurement where a resident can climb out the window. V3/Maintenance Director was in
serviced by V20/Regional Director of Operation regarding the placement of these window safety measures,
and to perform daily checks that the window safety measures are still in place and working properly. On
9/4/25 V1/Administrator in-serviced all staff regarding window safety measures and to alert maintenance or
management if they identify a window safety component to be broken, out of place or missing. On 9/4/25
V1/Administrator in-serviced regarding safety and supervision policies and procedures, including but not
limited to following resident care plan interventions pertaining to Wandering and Elopement (example: more
frequent checks). On 9/4/25 V1/Administrator in-serviced all
