**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, observation and record review, the facility failed to assess adaptive equipment and pressure
alarms in order to ensure safety and freedom for normal movement for 4 of 4 residents (R3, R5, R9, R18)
reviewed for physical restraints in the sample of 26. Findings include:1. R5's “admission
Record” documents an admission date of 7/17/25 and a discharge date of 8/25/25 with the following
diagnoses in part; other frontotemporal neurocognitive disorder, frontotemporal dementia, dementia in other
diseases classified elsewhere, unspecified severity, with agitation, history of falling, muscle weakness
(generalized), difficulty in walking.
Residents Affected - Some
R5's care plan documents that R5 is at risk for falls related to dementia, impaired cognition/safety
awareness, use of antidepressant, antianxiety medications, history of falls, impaired gait/balance. This
same document lists the following interventions, Lap [NAME] (positioning device) to be ordered and placed
on delivery, until arrives staff to increase monitoring, with an initiation date of 7/31/25. Bed alarm on while in
bed to notify staff of need for assistance, with an initiation date of 7/17/25.
R5's medical record did not contain a restraint assessment for positioning device (lap [NAME]). R5's
medical record did not contain an order for a positioning device.
On 9/9/25 at 10:43am, V22 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA) stated that R5 was a [NAME], and she was
strong, it was possible she could remove the velcro off the lap [NAME], but it was not something she could
do on command or knew what she was doing.
On 9/9/25 at 11:17am, V32 (Therapy Director) stated she can give recommendations for positioning
devices, but she does not see too many residents in therapy because most of them are Medicaid and
screening them for such devices is not something she regularly does. V32 stated that she worked with R5
right before she really declined. V32 stated R5 was physically very strong, she would get a grip on
something, and you could not get it away from her. V32 stated R5 could walk, but she was not steady
standing on her own and had some falls. V32 stated that R5 physically had the strength to remove the
Velcro on her positioning device, but she did not think she could intentionally remove it.
2. R18's “admission Record” documents an admission date of 4/30/2022 with the following
diagnoses in part, unspecified dementia, moderate, with other behavioral disturbance, personal history of

progressed. V22 stated R5 was extremely active of body, moving constantly, often in repetitive motions. V22
stated it was like R5's body did not connect with her brain. V22 stated R5 was very restless at night, she
needed one on one supervision. V22 stated during the day activity and management tried to help with R5 if
they could, she had started therapy right before she got COVID and that had been a ton of help. V22 stated
therapy would help walk R5 because she was constantly trying to get up and she was not steady at all and
had some falls. V22 stated walking helped her settle down so much. V22 stated R5 was total care and had
to be extensively assisted with feeding, which did take a lot of time. V22 stated she could walk but not

reassuring her. V22 stated she could be combative at times. V22 stated she was not sure what R5's
behavioral interventions actually were, but if she had her, she would give her a pillowcase to fiddle with or
fold. V22 stated sometimes she would give her the pillow without the pillowcase because she liked the
sound that it made when she scratched it and would settle her down a little bit.On 9/9/25 at 11:21am, V15

they had to keep eyes on her all the time. V15 stated R5 was constantly wanting to stand and fidgeting. V15
stated R5 was super restless, and she would pull stuff off the desks, get a hold of people walking past her
and trying to stand and she was super unsteady trying to stand unassisted. V15 stated if she was very
restless and someone was available, they would walk with her and that was very helpful. V15 stated she did
not specifically remember what R5's behavior interventions were but they always had to have eyes on her
and things out of her reach. V15 stated she had an as needed order for a Haldol injection and she had to
call the psychiatric Nurse Practitioner to get a one time order once because she was very combative. V15
stated when R5 first came she spoke, but it was nonsensical. V15 stated there was no redirection or
discussing feelings with R5, her level of cognition at that point just was not there.On 9/9/25 at 1:09pm, V14
(Director of Nursing/DON) stated she did not believe V33 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner) saw R5 in person
at admission. V14 stated they do monitor medications, and the psychiatric medications people admit on,
she stated R5 was admitted on all these medications, and they weren't monitoring her specifically. V14
stated they do monitor for side effects of medications. V14 stated medications with black box warnings have
things to monitor for in the care plan, but they do not have a place where they chart what they are
monitoring for. V14 stated when R5 first admitted she would do one on one with her at times. V14 stated R5
did speak in the beginning, but agreed her level of cognition was severely impaired. V14 stated they should
be reevaluating interventions for residents.On 9/9/25 at 1:56pm, V17 (Physician) stated R5 was discharged
from the hospital to continue both orders for one scheduled benzodiazepine tablet, one scheduled
antidepressant tablet, one as needed benzodiazepine tablet, one as needed anti-psychotic tablet and one
as needed anti-psychotic injection, and one as needed Anxiolytic/Sedative tablet, up to three times a day.
V17 stated he continued the medications because R5 was allegedly already taking them at the assisted
living. V17 stated the reason she was taking them was because she was displaying increased agitation, he
stated he believed she also was combative and had self-injurious behavior. V17 stated he had seen R5 in
person on July 17,2025 when she was admitted to the facility.On 9/9/25 at 2:35pm, V33 (Psychiatric Nurse
Practitioner) stated she followed R5 at her previous assisted living facility. V33 stated R5 was much more
active at assisted living, and managing her behaviors and medications were challenging. V33 stated they
tried all different things with R5, she was much more physically aggressive, was flipping tables and things of
that nature. V33 stated in assisted living, they do not have the staff that they have in long term care,
sometimes they don't even have nurses, so their ability to use non-pharmacological interventions is limited.
V33 stated the facility continued all her orders for R5 from the assisted living, she stated the reason for all
the as needed medications in assisted living because they will taper them down to as needed with the goal
of discontinuing them eventually. V33 stated normally she would not order all these as needed medications
in a long-term care facility because they have more staff and different regulations. V33 stated she can give
suggestions for behavior interventions. V33 stated after looking over her notes she had suggested behavior
interventions appropriate to her cognitive abilities, she stated R5 was severely cognitively impaired. V33
stated behavior interventions should always be the first line treatment, appropriate interventions should be
done and documented before use of as needed medications. V33 stated as needed medications should be
the last resort for all patients. V33 stated she had not seen R5 in person until after she had declined, she
stated she didn't have her notes in front of her, but she believed it to be around 8/15/25.On 9/9/25 at
2:40pm, V1 (Administrator) was asked if R5's behavior interventions were person centered and appropriate,
V1 stated that was a good question and declined to answer any further. V1 stated they did not have any
policies regarding the use of psychotropic medications or chemical
