interview and record review, the facility failed to timely contact a residents Power of Attorney (POA) and
provide a comprehensive report of an elopement for one resident (R1) of three residents reviewed for POA
notification in the sample of three.
Findings include:
R1's Face Sheet documented an admission Date of 3/20/24 and listed Diagnoses including Alzheimer's
Disease and Hypertensive Heart Disease with Heart Failure. R1's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE]
documented that R1 is severely cognitively impaired, wanders, and exhibits behaviors not directed toward
others. The same MDS documents that R1 has no impairments in upper or lower body range of motion and
requires partial to moderate assistance for walking. R1's Care Plan dated 4/16/25 documented a problem
area, Resident is at risk for injuries due to exit seeking behaviors. Attempts to exit the building unattended,
with corresponding interventions, Re-direct as needed/cues; Notify all staff of residents tendency to seek

Power of Attorney (POA) for Health Care form dated 3/22/24 listed V11 as R1's POA.
A Police Report dated 4/12/25 at 6:18pm documented, in part, On 4/12/25, I, (V6, Police Officer) was
off-duty, when I viewed an older male sitting in the drivers seat of a (vehicle) (at a location 0.2 miles away
from the facility) with what appeared to be blood coming from the left upper head area. As I went around
the block to come back to the male subject, I called dispatch on what I viewed and kept them on the phone
while I made contact with the male in the vehicle. Before approaching the vehicle, I gave the Illinois
registration information to dispatch. Once at the vehicle, the male opened the drivers door, and I viewed
scrapes on the palm of his right hand, skin tears that were open and bleeding, and a laceration on the outer
left eyebrow area. I requested an ambulance come and check on the male, with dispatch toning out an
ambulance to my location. At this time I hung up with dispatch and stayed with the male. While speaking
with the male, I learned his name was (R1) and that he had fallen down in front of his vehicle. (R1) advised
that he was just sitting in his car for a minute, but he was ready to go now. I viewed (R1) not to be
responding correctly, and he did not seem to know where he was at. When I asked (R1) what his address
was, he could not tell me and said that he lived on that street over there. I asked (R1) why he was out of his
vehicle and how he fell down, he advised that he was working on a house and was going home now. At this
time (R1) began reaching for the ignition, but I got his attention back to me advising him that I wanted him
to get checked out by the medics before he goes home. (R1) then advised that this was ok, and began
thanking me for stopping and helping him. I was then able to reach across the steering column and feel for
ignition keys, but they were not there. At this time (R1) told me that they were probably out in the road

resident in their Alzheimer's wing. I advised that supervisor that (R1) is currently a block away from their
facility, . being loaded up in an ambulance. I was then told that they would have someone there shortly.

asked who had found (R1), and I advised that I had. I explained to them who I was and who I worked for
and that I would be making a report on the matter once I am back on duty. They understood and advised
me that they would have their boss contact me on Monday ([DATE]). At this time that ambulance
transported (R1) to the hospital to address his injuries, and I left the scene along with everyone else .On

R1, and the 2 CNAs were doing a mechanical lift on another resident down the hall. V4 stated she left the
nurses station to assist a resident and, The next thing she knew, V3, Registered Nurse, was telling her she
needed to do a head count, because the police had found (R1) outside the facility. V4 stated she was
surprised R1 eloped as all the exits are alarmed. V4 stated it is her understanding that apparently activity
staff left an unlocked door to a small office next to the front exit, and when she and other staff checked the
unit, they noticed the window in the office was open and the screen was out and laying on the ground. V4
stated she believes R1 is physically capable of climbing out a window, and it probably took R1 less than a
minute to get out. V4 stated she did not have a key to that office, doesn't know who does, and has never
tried to open it. V4 stated her shift ended at 10pm, which was approximately the time R1 returned from ER.
V4 stated she stayed with R1 until he fell asleep at about 2am because upon his return he continued to
have exit seeking behavior. V4 stated she contacted V11 (R1's POA) when R1 returned from ER and
informed her R1 had gotten out of the facility, had fallen, was treated at the ER for minor injuries and had
returned to the facility. V4 stated after the elopement, all residents at risk for elopement on that unit, which
is the majority of them, are now on every 30-minute checks to be documented in the Elopement Binder. V4
stated if the office door had been locked, and/or if they had had another CNA or perhaps a Unit Aid, they
could have provided increased supervision for R1 and he would not have eloped.
On [DATE] at 12:10pm, V7, CNA, stated on [DATE] she worked 7am to 7pm on the Dementia Care Unit. V7
stated all shift, R1 was exit seeking, saying sexual things to and trying to grab staff, and asking for his
motorcycle saying he was, Getting out of here. The off going shift said he had been displaying these
behaviors on their shift also. V7 stated for redirection, she tried snacks, talking to R1 one to one, frequent
toileting, his favorite TV shows, and playing music for him, but nothing worked. V7 stated R1 displays these
behaviors often, and they fluctuate from day to day. V7 stated for the past couple of weeks, his behaviors
have been worse. V7 stated on [DATE] she recalled seeing R1 after dinner sitting in the dining room at
about 5:30pm. V7 stated at some point after 6pm, she heard other staff talking about R1 having eloped. V7
stated when it was discovered R1 eloped, she checked the unit and it was discovered that a small office
used for storage had the door unlocked, the window was open and the screen had been pushed out. V7
stated she assumes R1 climbed out the

window. V7 stated looking back, when R1 pushed on the exit doors on the north and south sides of the
building, the alarms were working. V7 stated she does however think R1 has figured out that if you push on
the alarmed doors they will open after 15 seconds, but stated they did not hear any door alarms going off
when he was out of staffs sight. V7 stated the following day when she came to work, there was an
elopement book that all elopement risk residents are to be charted on every 30 minutes. V7 stated having
more staff could have prevented R1's elopement, even if it was a Unit Aid or an Activity Aid. V7 stated she
feels R1's behaviors are aggravated by boredom. V7 stated multiple staff have told administration they need
more help on the unit but are told the Corporation who owns the facility says they are not needed.

Director, who was present, stated R1 could have eloped from that window, but it egresses a courtyard with
a locked gate, and no evidence had been found that the gate was left unlocked.
On [DATE] at 2:39pm, the alarmed glass double door exit on the north hall, which has a keypad, was
checked by the Surveyor, and it was noted that 15 seconds of pressure on both doors did not activate the
alarm, but the doors could be pushed open after 15 seconds. The Surveyor called over V5, who was
standing at the end of the hallway, and V5 pushed on the doors and confirmed the alarm was not working
but the doors were automatically opening. V5 was also able to open the doors using the keypad. V5 stated
he was not sure why alarms to the exit door were not working properly, and that he checks all the exits
once a week, and it was in working order last time he checked it. V5 could not recall what date he had last
checked the door. When the doors opened, a residential area with an intersection of two streets was
observed, which V5 stated that was the area where the police had found R1. V5 stated he would fix the
door as soon as possible. V5 stated it was possible R1 could have eloped from that exit if the alarm was not
working.

where R1 allegedly eloped as being closed with the screen in it. V1 stated activity staff had been accessing
the small office where some of the supplies were kept for the Easter egg hunt. and could have left the door
unlocked. V1 stated he instructed V5 to put a self-locking handle on the door of that office, which was done
on [DATE]. V1 stated staff are doing every 30-minute checks on all residents at risk for elopement on the

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to adequately staff the Dementia Care Unit. This
has the ability to affect all 25 residents living on that unit.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
On 4/15/25 at 10:50am, V2, Director of Nurses/DON, stated she is the staff member responsible for
scheduling nursing and CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) staff. V2 stated the current census for the
Dementia Care Unit is 25. V2 stated, We schedule one nurse and we try to schedule 2 CNA's on the
Dementia Unit for both shifts, 7pm to 7am and 7am to 7pm, but sometimes it doesn't happen with CNA call
ins.
On 4/15/25 at 11:35am, V4, Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN, stated she works weekends on the 7am to 7pm
shift on the Dementia Unit. V4 stated normally she works with 2 CNA's. V4 stated the unit is not adequately
staffed as the majority of the residents are incontinent, several require a mechanical lift for transfers,
several require 100% feeding assist, and many display behaviors. V4 also stated they do not have enough
staff to provide one to one supervision for residents who require it.
On 4/15/25 at 12:10pm, V7, CNA, stated she works the day shift on the Dementia Unit. V7 stated there is
one nurse and generally 2 CNA's, which is not enough considering the level of care and supervision most

been told the facility's corporate staff will not approve it.
On 4/19/25 at 8:40am, V11, R1's Power of Attorney, stated when she visits R1 he often displays agitation
and exit seeking behavior. V11 stated she often has difficulty finding staff to help her redirect R1 and to
change R1 when he is incontinent. V11 stated at times staff will call and ask her to come to the unit as R1
is having behaviors, and V11 feels this is due to the unit not being adequately staffed and don't have time to
closely supervise and redirect R1. V11 stated this is especially evident on the day shift on weekends.
On 4/19/25 at 11:40am, V10, Physician/Medical Director, stated he has concerns that the facility may be
understaffed, but stated he has no control over making decisions about staffing patterns.
On 4/19/25 at 1pm, V12, CNA, stated she works the day shift in different areas of the facility. V12 stated
when she works on the Dementia Unit, there are usually 2 CNA's and one nurse on day shift. V12 stated
when their night shift relief arrives, at times there is only one CNA and they share one nurse with the
Behavior Unit.
On 4/19/25 at 2:50pm, V2 stated on the 7pm to 7am shift, there are 2 nurses on duty for the whole facility,
with one nurse being assigned to the east building and one assigned to the west building (where the
Dementia and Behavioral Units are located).
