sheets like that, it a was a restraint. V2 said the sheet should not be tied around R1 legs. V2 said R1 has a
right to move freely. V2 explained the facility has removed the rails off their beds because they don't use

position on R1 bed. V2 said R1 should not have the bed rails in the up position. V2 explained R1's bed was
provided by the hospice company but staff knows how to put the bed rails in the down position and they
should put the bed rails in the down position. V2 said R1 has down syndrome and has dementia. V2
explained R1 is a fall risk, R1 has boosters on her mattress for fall prevention intervention and R1 bed
should be in a low position. V2 made aware R1 bed was not in the low position when observed by the

she had to literally unwrap R1 body from the sheets. V6 said she called her supervisor at the hospice
company to inform them. V6 said she did not mention this to facility because she didn't know how to
manage the situation with the facility. V6 said she took picture to show her supervisor. V6 said she untied
R1 and provided care to R1. V6 said she did not see any bruises on R1. V6 said the facility has asked her
not to return because she expressed concerns about the clients she was assigned to at the facility.
On 11.18.23 at 10:49am V1 (case manager hospice company) said it was reported to her by V6 that V6
observed R1's legs tied up in a sheet on 10.27.23. V1 said the hospice company had a previous episode
with R1 being restrained at the facility in April 2023. V1 said she asked V6 not to talk to the facility and she
would inform the facility. V1 said she informed V3 on 10.27.23 of the issue and she showed V3 the photo
image also.
On 11.18.23 at 11:18am V3 (Administrator) V3 said it was reported to her on 10.27.23 by V1 that R1 was
observed with the bed sheet tied around her legs. V3 said V1 showed V3 the picture of R1 but V3 couldn't

the legs and at the legs the sheet is tied.
Facility concern form dated 10.27.23 denotes in-part, R1 name, report taken by V3, concern- hospice CNA
stating resident's sheet is wrapped too tightly around her legs. Summary of pertinent findings- not

V4 notice of corrective action form dated 10.27.23 denotes in-part on 10.27.23, the employee stated during
an investigation she wrapped a blanket around a resident in order to keep the blanket on. Those could be
considered a restraint and all restraints must be approved by the IDT (interdisciplinary team). Using a
