What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 5 deficiencies, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0600 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to protect the residents right to be free from physical abuse by staff. This failure affected one resident (R1) who was handled roughly and was hit on the arm and the back by a facility CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) as she attempted to redirect R1. This was identified as an Immediate Jeopardy which began on 06/30/24 when V20, Certified Nursing Assistant, physically abused R1. The immediacy was removed on 07/22/24. On 07/17/24, V1 (Administrator) was informed of the Immediate Jeopardy and the Immediate Jeopardy template was presented on 07/17/24 at 2:41pm. The facility provided an acceptable removal plan on 07/22/34 at 5:34pm. On 07/23/24, through onsite observation, interviews, and record reviews, the surveyor confirmed the implementation of facility's removal plan. Although the immediacy was removed and the removal plan accepted, the deficiency remains at the second level of harm until the facility can determine the effectiveness of the implementation of removal. Findings include: R1's medical record documented R1 was admitted [DATE], with diagnoses that includes but not limited to Dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere mild with agitation, insomnia due to medical condition, essential hypertension, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. R1's plan of care for potential to demonstrate verbally and physically aggressive behaviors related to dementia, with initial date 08/11/2022, listed interventions including but not limited to when R1 becomes agitated, staff should walk calmly away, and approach later. R1's plan of care for presence of abuse and neglect factors, initiated 05/18/2024, has goals that include R1 will be treated with respect, dignity and reside in the facility free of mistreatment (abuse/neglect). On 07/10/24 at 10:34am, R1 was noted in the dining area, which is also used for activity with peers. R1 does not speak English, but is able to understand greetings in English language. At 12:25pm, V14 (Activity Director) stated R1 speaks Chinese; R1 was unable to recollect or speak of any abuse (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0600 incident. Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety On 7/10/24 at 12:26pm, V4 (Registered Nurse) and V5 (Registered Nurse) assessed R1's body, which showed bruising to the right antecubital area, which V4 attributed to R1's visitation to ER (Emergency Room) on 07/08/24. V4 stated the bruising might be from possible IV insertion site at the hospital ER (Emergency Room). Residents Affected - Few On 07/10/24 at 3:00pm, V20, CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), stated, I (V20) will tell you the truth. It happened about two weeks ago, and the whole thing was in the hallway where the video camera can pick it up (see it). Another staff, (V21, CNA) was also present when the incident occurred. V20 checked the calendar for the day she worked, and stated the incident happened on 06/30/24. V20 stated, (R1) was trying to sit on the floor. (R1) usually does this, and I was trying to grab (R1) quickly to get (R1) seated in the chair to avoid sitting on the floor. (R1) hit me with the elbow on the same spot I have being having pain. To be honest with you, I hit (R1) on the right hand. V20 was asked whether hitting a resident is a form of abuse, and whether V20 reported it to V1 (Administrator). V20 stated, Yes it is a form of abuse, but I never saw it as an abuse. When V20 was asked about the facility abuse policy and prevention of abuse and what V20 will do if she witnesses a resident being abused by staff, peers, or family member, V20 stated, I will report it immediately within 2 hours. On 07/10/24 3:13pm, V1, Administrator, stated the camera is reviewed daily and only 7 days of recording is stored. The only video camera recording history was from 07/01/24 to 07/10/24. V1 stated, The history from 06/30/24 has been wiped off. V1 was asked about the facility policy, and whether it is appropriate for staff to hit any of the residents. V1 stated, Abuse is a willful act that causes harm. V1 was asked under what situation/condition it is appropriate for your staff to hit a resident? V1 stated, Under no condition. V1 was asked whether hitting is a form of abuse, and V1 stated, Yes. On 07/11/24 at 4:05pm, V21 (CNA), whom V20 stated was present and witnessed the incident at the time of alleged abuse, stated, (R1) has dementia and can be combative at times, but that does not mean that the staff should abuse him ). I was in the dining area, and I saw (V20) hitting (R1) multiple times on the back, hands, and grabbing (R1) roughly on the arm. I told (V20) not to hit (R1), and (V20) said that (R1) hit her first, and 'I am not going to let (R1) hit me.' I told (V20) that she should have handled it in a better way that does not involve hitting (R1), which will not be abusive. No staff should hit any of the residents or handle them roughly, even with their bad behavior. V21 stated R1 has dementia and does not speak English. V21 stated, (R1) was crying and shouting, and that was why I looked in their direction. I reported it to the nurse (on duty) (V10), and nothing was done until you (referring to the surveyor) came here (facility). V21 was asked when would you report any alleged abuse. V21 stated, Immediately as soon as you see it. I reported it to the nurse on duty (V10) and they did nothing. She did it in front of the camera, it's not like she was hiding it. Even when I told her that it is not right, (V20) was confrontational about it. (V20) retaliated by hitting (R1) and that is wrong. On 07/11/24 at 4:30pm, V2, Director of Nursing (DON), stated, It is not appropriate for any of the staff to hit or handle any of the resident roughly. It should be reported when that happens. According to facility investigation, the facility concluded the allegation of abuse cannot be substantiated.

F 0600 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety form of abuse in V27's professional opinion. V27 stated, In this case, we (facility) think it is a form of self-defense. Residents should not be touched (physically abused). We protect them at all costs. They (staff) have the right to defend themselves. V27 stated the staff should defend themselves without aggressively attacking the resident and de-escalate the situation. V27 was asked whether staff should be correcting residents' aggressive behavior by hitting or slapping a resident. V27 stated, Of course not, no one should hit anyone. De-escalate. Protect your face, move away, and ask for help. Residents Affected - Few On 7/23/24 at 2:26pm, V28 (Social Services Director) stated, (R1) has dementia and that was why (R1) was discharged to a memory care unit at a long-term care yesterday (07/22/24).

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that medication was locked up safely when not in visual proximity of the licensed nurses and not in use to prevent tampering and accidental hazard. This failure has the potential to affect all the residents residing on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the facility. Findings include: On 07/10/24 at 11:29am, the treatment cart was observed in the hallway on the 3rd floor, not in visual proximity of the nurse, and was unlocked. V16, RN (Registered Nurse) was asked about the facility policy/protocol on treatment carts storage and medication storage. V16 stated the medications are to be locked in a cart when not in use and not in visual proximity of a nurse.
