interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident was provided ADL (Activity of Daily
Living) care prior to transfer to hospital for (R1) 1 of 3 residents reviewed for ADL care in the sample of 3.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
R1's face sheet printed on 3/17/25 show R1 had diagnoses that include COVID 19 positive, Dementia and
Anxiety.
R1's facility assessment dated [DATE] under functional ability show R1 is frequently incontinent of bowel
and bladder and needs assistance with transfers and toileting.

R1 was being sent to the hospital for evaluation via 911.
R1's hospital record dated 3/12/25 documents- upon arrival to Emergency Department (ED), pt/patient was
noted to have soaked brief and her pants/linens underneath her were soaked all the way down to her
ankles with odorous urine.
On 3/17/25 at 10:38 AM, V4 (License Practical Nurse-LPN) stated on 3/12/25, she was R1's PM shift
Nurse. V4 stated she received report that R1 was having a change in condition. R1 was placed on oxygen
due to her Oxygen saturation (O2 sats) were low. V4 (LPN) said R1 was being closely monitored. R1 was
placed in her wheelchair by the Nurses Station. R1's O2 sats remained low, and it was in the 80's. V4 said

change R1 at that time. V5 stated she was told that R1 was taken from the dining room and that R1 will be
fed in the nurse's station. After dinner, V5 stated she saw R1 sitting in her wheelchair in the Nurses Station.
V5 stated R1 was visibly wet on her frontal area but she thought R1 spilled water on herself since she saw
an empty cup by the counter. Prior to R1 going to the hospital, R1 was lifted from her chair, and her bottom
was wet. V5 stated R1 needed to be brought to her room to be changed. V5 stated she was told the
