Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide behavioral interventions for
a resident with a diagnosis of dementia that was displaying behaviors for one of 15 residents (R62)
reviewed for dementia care in the sample of 21.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
R62's admission Record, dated 3/4/24, shows R62 was admitted tot he facility on 2/26/19, with diagnoses
including dementia, Alzheimer's, restlessness and agitation, generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive
disorder, anxiety disorder, over active bladder, and need for assistance with personal care.
R62's Care Plan, initiated 3/1/24, shows, I have a history of often ambulating up and down the halls and will
become momentarily tearful, whimper, and cry out before continuing to ambulate against/down the hall.
Care Plan initiated 11/16/23, shows, Walk with me to/from resident dining room for all meals or as often as I
will tolerate. Encourage me to walk as much as I will tolerate and praise my efforts.
On 3/3/24 at 9:30 AM, R62 was sitting in her wheelchair in the large dining room. V11, Activity Aide, was
sitting in a chair next to R62. R62 made numerous attempts to stand up; V11 guided R62 to sit back down.
At 9:47 AM, V10, CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), said she is going to take R62 to the bathroom to see if
that is why she keeps trying to stand up. V10 took R62 to the bathroom. R62 was placed back at the table
with V11 after using the bathroom. At 10:10 AM, R62 was attempting to stand up and was trying to walk.
V11 again guided R62 to sit down. R62 was crying out loud. R62's wheelchair was locked and in front of a
table. R62 made numerous attempts to stand up until 11:08 AM. At 11:08 AM, V11 placed R62 in the small
dining room in front of a table and locked her wheelchair. At 11:42 AM, V9, RN (Registered Nurse), was
shaking a maraca in front of R62. Each time R62 attempted to stand up and move, R62 was guided to sit
back down in her wheelchair. R62 attempted to stand up and move at 11:41 AM. V9 was holding onto R62's
left arm and R62 yelled, Let me go! I want to move! V9 again guided R62 to sit down. V10, CNA, came over
to R62 and switched spots with V9. V10 continued to shake the maraca in front of R62. R62 continued to
make multiple attempts to stand up and move until lunch came at 12:00 PM. There were no attempts made
by staff to ambulate R62 during the entire observation.
On 3/4/24 at 11:41 AM, V8, RN, said R62 is able to walk with a gait belt and a walker with a wheelchair
following her, depending on the day. V8 said when R62 is showing behaviors of restlessness or anxiety,
then ambulation and toileting are the staffs' first go to. V8 also said snacks and drinks are also offered. V8
said R62 also likes to color. V8 said sometimes walking works and sometimes it does not, but walking is an
intervention that staff use to help with restlessness.
On 3/5/24 at 11:14 AM, V6, CNA, said R62 constantly tries to stand up. V6 said R62 screams and tries to
walk unsafely. V6 said R62 can get frustrated at times when staff try to help her. V6 said if R62 is restless,
then staff offer her snacks, take her to the bathroom, and offer her root beer because R62 really likes root
beer. V6 said sometimes R62 can walk safely and sometimes she can't. V6 said walking R62 can be used
to manage R62's behaviors.
On 3/5/24 at 1:51 PM, V15 (R62's Daughter) said R62 was a pacer. V15 said when R62 lived at home,
