Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Failures at
this level require more than one Deficient Practice Statement.
Residents Affected - Few
A. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident was free from
neglect when they failed to accurately assess, treat, and prevent a significant decline in condition for 1 (R1)
of 3 residents reviewed for neglect in the sample of 24. This failure resulted in R1, who has a history of
confusion with infections, experiencing altered mental status and refusing overall care after being
diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. R1's refusals of care additionally led to R1 developing a Stage 3
pressure ulcer, an unstageable pressure ulcer with sepsis secondary to skin and soft tissue infection,
subsequently requiring an 11-day hospitalization for IV antibiotic therapy.
This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy, which was identified to have begun on 6/19/2024 when R1
was readmitted to the facility from a hospitalization. R1 was on a physician ordered treatment for urinary
tract infection, yet the facility failed to implement interventions to prevent worsening of infection. R1 endured
confusion with delusions related to infection, which led to refusal of medications and refusal of care with
activities of daily living. R1's refusal of care included care with incontinence and repositioning, which led to
development of pressure ulcers. R1's facility acquired pressure ulcers were not treated, and led to
hospitalization on 7/2/2024 for sepsis related to infection of skin and soft tissue in relation to the stage 3
pressure ulcer and unstageable pressure ulcer.
V1 (Administrator) was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 7/11/2024 at 2:12 PM. The surveyors
confirmed by observations, interview, and record review the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on
7/17/2024, but the noncompliance remains at a Level Two due to additional time needed to evaluate the
implementation and effectiveness of in-service training.
Findings Include:
R1's admission Record documents R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. R1's POS (Physician order
sheet), dated 7/2024, list diagnoses that include angina pectoris, heart failure, GERD (Gastroesophageal
Reflux Disease), unspecified dementia, unspecified severity with other behavioral disturbances, atrial
fibrillation, type 2 diabetes mellitus, paranoid schizophrenia, chronic kidney disease stage 4,
hypothyroidism, chronic peripheral disease, gout, and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease).
R1's MDS (Minimum Data Set), dated 4/10/2024, documents a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status)

(grams) and Levofloxin 750 mg (milligrams) after blood cultures were obtained.
On 7/10/2024 at 11:17 AM, V9 (Certified Nurse Assistant/CNA) stated she sometimes takes care of R1. V9
stated, I had noticed for the last 2 weeks or more (R1) had not been acting himself. He has been refusing
care and having bad behaviors. (R1) did get sent to the hospital and he is still there.
On 7/10/2024 at 11:25 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated she had taken care of R1, as he is
on her hall. V6 stated, I noticed a change with (R1) the last 2 weeks. (R1) had been more violent and was
refusing care. (R1) was supposed to be taking antibiotics for a urinary tract infection, but he was refusing
his medications. V6 stated the floor nurses do treatments on the residents except for Thursdays because
that is the day that the wound doctor comes to the facility. V6 stated she was not aware of any wounds on
R1, and he was not getting any treatments. V6 stated she heard of his behaviors when he tried to pull
another resident out of the bed.
On 7/10/2024 at 11:20 AM, V5 (CNA) stated she always works 6am to 2pm shift. V5 states she normally
takes care of R1. V5 stated, (R1) was always fine until the last few weeks, and he started refusing care. V5

On 7/10/2024 at 12:00PM, V7 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated she works all halls here, and she is
familiar with R1, as she takes care of him when she works his hall. V7 stated the floor nurses do the
treatments on the residents. V7 stated, I was here when (R1) tried to pull (R9) out of bed. (R1) had tried to
go into (R9's) room several times on that day and we had to keep redirecting him. I moved my medication
cart down the hall closer to (R9's) room so that I could keep an eye on the situation. (R1) went into (R9 's)
room and started yelling that (R9) was causing electrical shock to his beard and something about black
stuff, then (R1) grabbed (R9's) foot and tried to drag him out of bed. When the CNA tried to separate them,
(R1) hit (V14, Certified Nurse Assistant) in the abdomen, and (R1) had earlier grabbed (R9's) over bed
table and threw it. I witnessed (R1) trying to grab (R9) out of bed. V7 was asked if she felt this was
considered abuse to R9, she replied, No because (R1) did not do that intentionally because he did not
know what he was doing. V7 stated, Prior to 2 weeks or so ago, (R1) was so sweet and real easy going. I
was unaware of any wounds on (R1) until right before I sent him out to the hospital the last time on
7/2/2024. (V12, CNA) was helping try to get (R1) ready to be transported to the hospital and she noted a
large wound to (R1's) buttocks, (V12) reported it to me immediately, but when I went into the room to
assess the wound (R1) refused, so I did not get to even look at it. V7 was asked how often they did skin
checks on R1, and V7 stated weekly. V7 stated they document those on the (MAR) Medication
Administration Record.

taken care of (R1) for a long while. (R1) was always nice up until the last month to month and a half. V12
stated, (R1) was refusing all care as of lately. One day we went in his room, and (R1) was drenched in
urine, the floor had urine everywhere, and the mattress was leaking urine on the floor and under the bed. It
was bad. (R1) allowed us to clean the urine off the floor, but would not let them clean under the bed, clean
him up or change the mattress out. V12 stated, We offered care for days before (R1) went to the hospital,
but he just refused. When V12 was asked about any skin issues with R1 she stated, I would apply powder
to his groin area prior to his refusal of care because it was gaulded, but on the day we were getting ready to
send him out to the hospital, I noticed a big circular area on (R1's) bottom and it was bleeding pretty good. I
then went to (V7, LPN) and told her, but (R1) refused to let (V7) look at it and then the ambulance came. I
was not aware the big area on (R1's) bottom was there until that day. V12 stated R1 is wheelchair bound,
but R1 can walk a few steps.
On 7/11/2024 at 2:59 PM, V18 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner) stated she started seeing R1 about 2 years
ago. V18 stated R1 told her he first started having issues like delusions/hallucination when he got a UTI.
V18 stated, I was asked to stop the Zyprexa a couple of years ago because he didn't have the proper
diagnosis to support giving it. (R1) was a very pleasant and very knowledgeable man that was always alert
and oriented x 4. V18 stated she was not aware of any psychiatric problems over the past 2 years until
recently. V18 stated she had gotten a couple of calls from the facility about R1's behaviors lately and R1
refusing care. V18 stated she had talked with V23 (Nurse Practitioner/NP) and the staff about giving some
medication IM (intramuscular) so they could get him better, and hopefully R1 would start taking his regular
medications, antibiotics, and especially his insulin. V18 stated, The nurses would not give the medications
IM due to it being unsafe for the nurses and I was told they could not hold him down to administer it. V18
stated she expressed concerns with him not getting his insulin, and she even offered to come to the facility
and give the IM injections herself. V18 stated, The facility declined my offer because they stated he would
refuse. V18 stated at this point, he was harmful to himself and others. V18 was asked if she felt the UTI
could have caused the hallucinations/delusions, she replied, Due to the infection effects, it possibly started
when (R1) refusing medications then refusing care and has had a definite effect on his well-being. V18
stated she feels R1 is misdiagnosed, and she feels he does not have Schizophrenia. V18 stated, First,
Schizophrenia is a mental illness that is continuous, and he has been off medications for 2 years with no
issues. V18 then stated she feels like he has bipolar, and that is why he can go for a while without
medications before any issues come up. V18 stated, Sometimes any type of infection can cause confusion
and that leads to other issues in people that are normally not confused.
On 7/12/2024 at 8:01 AM, V27 (Healthcare Power of Attorney for R1) stated, I was not sure where (R1) was
at this time. Before coming to the nursing home, (R1) was at another hospital because he wasn't taking his
medications and got violent. This all started with a urinary tract infection. Once he got over the infection, he
went back to his normal self and did good. (R1) has been a preacher for several years. (R1) never had his
own church, but helped churches and filled in when a pastor was not available. I didn't know he was back in
the hospital. V27 was asked if she was aware an Involuntary Discharge had been issued to the resident
from the nursing home, and she stated, No, I didn't know. V28 (family member) was present on the phone
call and stated, His behaviors are always triggered by infections. V27 was asked if she was aware of any
skin issues like wounds and she stated, No, I didn't know anything about this either.
On 7/12/2024 at 8:40 AM, R1 was visited at the local hospital. R1 was sitting up in bed watching television.
R1 was alert and oriented x 4. R1 stated he is feeling much better. R1 stated his bottom is not hurting like it
was so he thought his wounds were healing. R1

stated he got the wounds while at the facility. R1 stated, When I get any kind of infection it goes to my brain
for some reason, and I am not right when I do get an infection. R1 stated he wants to go back to the facility.
R1 was asked if he was aware of possibly not being able to return to the facility and he said, No, I don't
know anything about that. R1 stated he is taking his medication and he is taking his insulin when he needs
it. R1 stated he must take medications for his Neuropathy; he stated it is Gabapentin and it does help me.
R1 also stated he has hypothyroidism, and he takes Levothyroxine for that as well. R1 stated he was tired
and was going to take a nap at this time. R1 then stated, I miss my friends at the facility, and I teach Bible
study classes there as well.
On 7/12/2024 at 8:25AM, V29 (Case Manager at local hospital) stated (R1) is doing much better now that
the infection is better. V29 stated, Facility said if he was seen by Psych (inpatient) that he could come back,
but the behavioral hospital denied him after review of his hospital course, and said it was a medical issue.
V29 stated R1 is taking his medications and his wounds are healing. V29 stated he is showing signs of
sundown syndrome, as he tries to refuse medications at night, but is fine throughout the day.
On 7/12/2024 at 11:07 AM, V3 (LPN/Licensed Practical Nurse/Infection Preventionist) was asked to
describe R1 prior to 6/19/2024. V3 stated R1 was alert and oriented x4, he led Bible Study at the facility. V3
stated she noticed his behaviors when they moved a roommate in with R1. V3 stated, The resident we
moved in was on Enhanced Barrier Precautions, and this set (R1) off. (R1) became withdrawn and was
going to the dining room, but was observed talking back to himself, but it escalated. He was saying things
about his family coming through the backdoor and threw stuff on him causing skin issues. This was
definitely a change in condition. We know when (R1) starts acting off, he is afraid of an infection. I believe
he was freaked out about the roommate that we had moved in, but we didn't leave that roommate in there
very long at all. (R1) will come and ask us to do a urinalysis when he thinks he is getting a UTI because he
is scared to get any kind of infection. We had received orders for urinalysis, but (R1) was refusing to give us
a urinalysis for several days. He finally went to the ER because of his groin pain and cellulitis. V3 explained
what happened once he returned from that hospitalization. V3 stated, Well, the hospital stated he was
taking his medications, but we found out later that he did not take medications there either, and he had
ripped out his IV's. V3 stated R1 returned 6/19/2024, with antibiotic orders for UTI. He was still having
delusions and was refusing medications, and he was refusing care. When V3 was asked if the Healthcare
Power of Attorney was called, she stated, I believe she was, but every time we talk to her, she is always
saying (R1) wants attention, and he knows I am busy with my son who has cancer. V3 stated The hospital
can do more than we can, he is a bigger guy. V3 was asked, since she was the Infection Control
Preventionist Nurse, was she looking at R1 from an infection standpoint, V3 replied, I was focused on the
behaviors more, but he wouldn't let me screen him about infections, and I believe half of his problems were
stemming from infections. V3 was asked if she was aware of his wounds and she stated, No, I do not do
skin checks or deal with wounds. V3 stated she was with V2 when they went to the hospital to give IVD
(Involuntary Discharge) papers. V3 stated, (R1) was alert, but I questioned if he understood what all we
were reading and telling him, about the appeal process. V3 was asked about the lack of care, especially
from 6/19/2024 through 7/2/2024. She stated, We tried to do more for (R1), and we felt if we sent him to the
hospital that they would just send him right back. When (R1) tried to pull another resident out of bed, this
was an isolated incident besides hitting the CNA in the stomach. Again, we looked more at the psych and
behaviors even though we knew he did this with infections. V3 stated, I am going to review the updates, but
I did see the pictures of his wounds that were taken at the hospital, and they didn't look good, but I did not
know he had those.

at 9:40 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) was asked to explain issues with R1, from the time of
readmission from the hospital on 6/19/2024. V2 stated, (R1) had been having unusual behaviors like,
refusing medications, he would say that he didn't need his medications, and he was refusing care up until
he went back to the hospital on 7/2/2024. (R1) was sent out to the ER at his request on 6/16/2024 because
he was having pain in his groin area. He was admitted for cellulitis of the groin area then noted to have a
urinary tract infection (UTI). (R1) was being seen by the wound doctor for the yeast on his groin area, but
had refused to allow the wound doctor to see him the last couple of times. (R1) came back on 6/19/2024,
was refusing medications including antibiotics for UTI. We were trying to get him into a behavioral facility
because of his Psych (psychiatric) issues. I was aware (R1) was refusing all care most of the time. V2
stated she received a call one night from the facility that (R1) had so much urine everywhere in his room,
his mattress was saturated and leaking on the floor, the urine was even running out into the hallway. (R1)
would only let the staff mop the hallway and barely in his room. V2 was asked if care was provided at that
time to clean up R1 and change out the mattress, V2 stated, (R1) would not let the staff clean anything
else. I was looking more at the Psych issues than I was the medical issues. During interview, V2 reviewed
the shower sheet documentation for R1 from the time of readmission 6/19/2024 until R1 went back out to
the hospital on 7/2/2024, and there were no showers given due to refusals. V2 stated, I was not aware of
any wounds on (R1), and nobody reported wounds to me, and I do all the wounds in the facility and round
with the wound doctor on Thursdays. V2 stated, We did call the EMS (Emergency Medical Services) on
6/10/2024 and for (R1) to go out to the ER, but EMS would not take him because he refused, and he was
able to answer all their questions appropriately. V2 was asked how they got him to go to the hospital on
7/2/2024, she stated, He didn't have a choice; he tried to harm another resident. V2 was asked if she was
aware there was documentation of talk between V23 (NP) and V26 (physician) about giving medications IM
to help get R1 care, but there was concern with the safety for the staff. V2 replied, Yes, I made that entry,
and I was worried that staff would get hurt because (R1) is a big strong guy, and I didn't want any staff to
get harmed. When V2 was asked if R1 received care from 6/19/2024 through 7/2/2024, she stated, No, not
really, he was refusing all care. We were documenting to try to get enough documentation to get him out to
a behavioral facility to help with his Psych issues.
On 7/12/2024 at 9:10 AM, V1 (Administrator) stated she was out of town the week of 7/2/2024, when she
got the call from V2 (DON/Director of Nursing). V1 stated V2 had a report of abuse with R1 and another
male resident. V1 stated V2 reported R1 was sent out to the hospital. V1 stated she received another call a
little later from V2, who stated Corporate contacted her and said they had to give an Involuntary Discharge
(IVD) to R1. V1 stated she told V2 that many others had to be contacted before an IVD could be given,
including the Ombudsman, and it was too late in the night for all those calls. V1 stated someone called V2
and said R1 qualified for IVD because he was harmful to himself and others. V1 said on 7/3/2024, V2 and
V3 (LPN/Licensed Practical Nurse/Infection Control Nurse) took IVD papers to R1 at the local hospital. V1
stated she was pretty sure V27 (Healthcare Power of Attorney for R1) was called about the IVD. V1 stated, I
think it was an emergency discharge. We want (R1) back if he gets his infections taken care of because he
goes over the deep end when he gets an infection. It's a cycle he has done before. (R1) is normally our best
resident, he is [NAME] President of Resident Council, he teaches Bible Study classes, and he is our facility
Santa Claus every year, and he does so well with the kids that the employees bring in to see him as Santa.
When V1 was asked if she knew R1 had pressure ulcers that he acquired at the facility she stated, No, I did
not know that. I get updates from the hospital, but I only look at Case Manager notes. V1 stated she hates
that, but he was

refusing all care for a while. V1 stated she was going to go see R1 at the hospital as she really wants to get
him back to the facility. V1 stated, We all love (R1), and we want him here.
On 7/12/2024 at 1:57 PM, V23 (Nurse Practitioner) stated, I have known and cared for (R1) for a long time.
V23 stated normally R1 is a pleasant guy that is alert and oriented x4. V23 stated, I feel (R1) needs
inpatient psych to get his meds regulated. V23 stated she had worked closely with V18 (Psych NP)
regarding R1. V23 stated V18 ordered Haldol liquid and they tried giving it to R1 in a drink, and R1 wouldn't
drink it. V23 stated, I was afraid someone would get hurt if they tried to give him an IM injection. V23 stated,
That would only help for a little bit though. V23 stated, (R1) was urinating everywhere and was pouring
urine all over himself, was laying in urine and feces, and refused care for long periods of time. V23 was
asked if she was aware of the wounds on R1's buttocks and she stated, I didn't know anything about
wounds, but have seen the pictures taken at the hospital. V23 stated, (R1) was always cautious about
getting a UTI and (R1) would come and tell me that he needs a UA (urinalysis) because he may be getting
a UTI. V23 stated, I ordered a UA when the staff told her that he was talking to himself, but (R1) refused it.
V23 stated she would stop by and check on him and he would say, I am doing ok, then I would walk past
the doorway and he would be talking to the television. V23 stated, I was there the night (R1) went out the
last time and I had them to call the police to come because I was afraid R1 would hurt someone because
he is a big strong guy. V23 was asked if she felt the infection caused the confusion and delusions and she
stated, It is hard to say which came first the psych issues or the infection. V23 stated, I was aware (R1) was
refusing care including personal care and refusing medications with most concerning medications of
antibiotics.
On 7/12/2024 at 12:50 PM, V26 (Physician/Medical Director) stated he was aware of R1's behaviors. V26
stated he was aware R1 tried to harm another resident and R1 went out to the hospital. V26 was asked if
he was aware R1 was refusing all care from the staff, he stated, I was aware he was refusing medications,
but was not aware of how long he was refusing. V26 was asked if he was aware R1 refused all care from
6/19/2024 through 7/2/2024 and he stated, (V18 Psych NP) has been dealing with him mostly, but I wasn't
aware that he refused care for that many days. V26 was asked if he talked with V18 at one point about
possibly giving medications IM so R1 would allow care or be sent to the ER, V26 stated, Yes, but I was told
they were afraid someone would get hurt as he is a big guy, but I have been hit myself and I am sure you
have too. V26 stated, My biggest concern was that (R1) was going to hurt himself or other residents. V26
stated, I am sure they tried to care for him, and I know (V18) was trying, sometimes it is just difficult. The
tipping point is why they sent him out, when he tried to pull the other guy out of the bed. V26 was asked if
he felt like R1 was harming himself by refusing care and medications, V26 replied, Of course he was. V26
stated, I know (V23) had gone to see him including the day they sent him out. V26 was asked if he knew
about the wounds R1 had once he got to the ER, and he stated, No, nobody has told me about that. V26
was asked if he felt the infection could have caused the behaviors which led to the lack of care, which in
turn caused the wounds and he stated, Well lack of care can cause wounds and infection of any kind can
cause worsening of confusion. Infections are rough on some folks. V26 was asked if he felt R1 was causing
harm to himself by refusing his medications including Insulin and antibiotics and refusal of care and he
replied, Yes, he was not helping his situation. V26 stated R1 has been at the facility a long time and is
usually very pleasant and active in different activities there.
R1's Progress Note, dated 7/13/24 at 3:40 PM, documents R1 returned to the facility and is alert and
oriented x 3, has no complaints, and is cooperative.

On 7/16/24 at 8:54 AM, V1 (Administrator) stated R4 can't talk, so he tends to tap people to get their
attention. V1 stated she didn't consider that a willful acts of abuse, but they have to type it up. V1 stated if
the resident is confused, it is usually not substantiated. When asked where the second investigation on R7
was, V1 stated she wasn't aware of any other incident. Then V1 stated she spoke with V34, and they didn't
do a report on the second incident because V1 and V2 were walking up to the front office and witnessed
the event. V1 stated R7 was hanging on to the front door handle trying to stand up from her wheelchair
when R4 walked up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. V1 stated R7 said 'stop hitting me' and they told
R7 he wasn't hitting her that he was just trying to get her attention. V1 stated R4 knows the alarm goes off if
they get too close to the door. V1 stated that is the second incident V34 was talking about, but they didn't
write it up as an abuse investigation. V1 stated they didn't consider it abuse.
On 7/22/24 at 10:28 AM, this surveyor reviewed with V34 her previous interview where she stated R4 had
hit R7 on the head while at the front door on two separate occasions. When asked if that interview was still
accurate, V34 stated, From where I was standing, he could have. V34 stated she knows V1 (Administrator)
was there and said to whoever else was up there (unknown staff) that it wasn't a reportable because R4

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents assessed as being at risk for
elopement were supervised, interventions to prevent elopement were implemented, and incidents of
elopement were thoroughly investigated for 1 of 3 (R16) residents reviewed for accidents and supervision in
the sample of 24. This failure resulted in R16, who had a history of elopement and was assessed as being
at risk of elopement, exiting the facility and walking approximately two tenths of a mile down a busy road
without staff supervision.
This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy, which was identified to have begun on 6/13/24 when R16
was identified to be at risk for elopement and the facility did not implement interventions to prevent
elopements. On 6/16/24, R16 attempted to exit the facility and while facility staff were looking for an
elopement bracelet to put on R16, R16 left the facility and was located approximately 25 yards from the
facility. R16 again exited the facility on 7/10/24. R16 walked approximately two tenths of a mile down the
busy street before being joined by staff and approximately eight tenths of a mile down the same street
before staff were able to convince R16 to return to the facility.
V1 (Administrator) was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 7/11/24 at 2:12 PM. The surveyors confirmed
by observations, interview, and record review the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 07/17/24, but the
noncompliance remains at a Level Two due to additional time needed to evaluate the implementation and
effectiveness of in-service training.
Findings Include:
R16's admission Record, with a print date of 7/15/24, documents R16 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], with diagnoses that include unspecified dementia, cognitive communication deficit, altered mental
status, and delirium.
R16's Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE], documents a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 03, which
indicates a severe cognitive deficit.
R16's Elopement Evaluation, dated 6/13/24, documents a score of 01, which indicates R16 is at risk of
elopement. This same assessment documents R16 has a history of attempted elopement and wandering
aimlessly. They were no interventions addressed as part of this evaluation.
R16's Progress Notes document the following:
6/13/24 Elopement Score 1.0, History of elopement while at home. Yes .
6/16/24 6:29 PM, Resident noted attempted exit through back staff entrance at 1720 (5:20 PM), also
witnessed by (V13/CNA-Certified Nursing Assistant). Upon entry resident resistant to moving away from
door and had to be corralled back towards unit. Once she was back on the unit this nurse
(V21/RN-Registered Nurse) and (V30, CNA) went looking for a wanderguard transponder. We looked on
(unit name) with no success. Then went down to (unit name). While in the med (medication) room looking, I
texted (V2/Director of Nurses/DON) to ask if there was an extra in her office or another location and then
heard the front door alarm go off. I immediately headed in that direction walking very briskly. As I came
through the main dining room, CNA (V31) said that it was (R16). I ran towards the front

The IDPH surveyor (as described above) reported to this surveyor on 7/10/2024 at 4:52PM the following
occurred: The IDPH surveyor walked out the front door of the facility. When the IDPH surveyor approached
the front door there was an elderly couple coming through the second set of double doors. The lady was in
front and using a walker, the IDPH surveyor approached to help her with the door. As the lady was coming
through the door, suddenly another female resident (R16) went through the lady in front of the gentleman
that was coming in the door. The other female resident (R16) exited the facility and went through the
second set of doors. The door alarm sounded. The IDPH surveyor went out the doors to the front parking lot
of the facility and approached R16 and attempted to get her to go back into the facility. The IDPH surveyor
was aware R16 was not supposed to be out of the facility since she had observed R16 being redirected
earlier in the day. R16 stated, No I am going home. V19 (Regional Chef) pulled up close to the facility and
stated he had come back to the facility to return a charger he took. The IDPH surveyor explained to V19
she had tried to get R16 back into the facility and she wouldn't go back in with her. V19 asked the resident
to go in with him and she wouldn't go. When asked if he had her V19 replied, I will go in and get the
administrator. R16 then started walking to the north end of the parking lot. The IDPH surveyor stayed with
R16 attempting to redirect her back to the facility. R16 told the IDPH surveyor she was pregnant and
needed to go home then went onto the main road heading north. The IDPH surveyor stayed with the
resident, and she began running down the side of the road. V17 (RN) came and then stated she couldn't
run. Then V1 came running up the road yelling at R16 to stop running but R16 kept running. Once V1
caught up to the resident the IDPH surveyor returned to the facility.
The IDPH surveyor (as described above) reported to this surveyor on 7/10/24 at 5:27 PM R16, V20 (Family
Member), and V1 (Administrator) came back into the facility. At that time, V1 stated they had to call the local
police and V20 to get R16 to come back to the facility. V1 stated R16 got all the way to the end of the road.
R16's hair was wet with sweat and V20 stated, I have to take her to the nurse and get her vital signs, she is
hot.
On 7/11/24 at 11:10 AM, V13 (CNA) stated R16 tried to get out of the facility a lot, about ten times a day.
V13 stated R16 is always going to the back door and knows to hold the door for 15 seconds to get it to stop
alarming because she used to work at the facility. V13 stated R16 left not more than a week ago but
stopped herself. V13 stated there was four staff with her and they followed R16. When asked what
interventions were in place to prevent R16 from eloping, V13 stated R16 didn't reside on the hall she
typically worked on, but when R16 was with her, she would have her help fold laundry. V13 stated R16 will
sit and talk to residents and likes to read magazines to them. V13 stated they just keep R16 busy.
On 7/11/24 at 11:31 AM, V11 (CNA) stated R16 was fairly new to the facility. V11 stated she had met her
and R16 was a busy body. V11 stated R16 didn't reside on the hall she typically worked on. V11 stated she
wasn't familiar with R16's interventions, but today she combed R16's hair, took her out on the enclosed
patio, and sometimes R16 goes into laundry and folds towels. V11 stated it is hard to keep R16 busy. When
asked if she had any concerns with residents who wander, V11 stated she didn't think there was enough
entertainment for them. V11 stated there is not enough staff to keep the residents who wander busy.
On 7/12/2024 at 12:33 PM, V17 (RN) stated she responded to the door alarm on 7/10/24 and saw a female
resident and her husband standing at the front window. V17 stated there was a male resident (R4) standing
close to the doors, and he wears an elopement alert bracelet. V17 stated she thought R4's elopement alert
bracelet set off the alarm due to him standing close to the doors. V17 stated R4 tends to go out the door, so
she was trying to get him away from the door and she turned the alarm off.

V17 stated, I suspected he (R4) was the one that set off the alarm. V17 stated she didn't go outside to see
if another resident had exited. V17 stated, (V19/Corporate Chef) came in and told us that (R16) was
outside, so I responded by going outside to get her. V17 stated when she looked out the window, she saw
the state surveyor and R16 at the end of the parking lot and by the time she got there R16 was down the
road. V17 stated she caught up with them and told the state surveyor she couldn't run, then V1 caught up
with them. V17 stated, I was concerned because people fly down that road, I know because I live down that
road and there are no sidewalks on either side of that road. V17 stated that once the Administrator was with
the resident, she went back to get her car so she could turn on the flashers to slow down the cars so they
wouldn't hit R16. V17 stated she also called the police and V20 (Family Member) to help get R16 safe and
back to the facility.
On 7/15/24 at 12:14 PM, V34 (Receptionist/Medical Records) stated R16 had been attempting to elope all
day on 7/10/24. V34 stated when R16 would see someone come up to the door she would run up to it. V34
stated she was watching R16 and would keep her from going out. V34 stated she wasn't aware of R16
getting out of the facility prior to 7/10/24. V34 stated she didn't know what interventions were in place to
keep R16 from eloping.
On 7/15/24 at 3:37 PM, V2 (DON) stated she wasn't at the facility on 7/10/24 when R16 eloped. This
surveyor reviewed with V2 the incident and V17's interview that she didn't go outside when she heard the
alarm. V2 stated she believed it was the policy of the facility to look outside and call a full facility head
count.
On 7/16/24 at 8:28 AM, V21 (RN/Registered Nurse) stated R16 was not his resident, but he was called to
her unit because she was attempting to exit the facility through the activity room door on 6/16/24. V21
stated her attempt to leave prompted him to look for an elopement alert bracelet. V21 stated while he was
looking for the bracelet, he heard the alarm going off and went to the front door. V21 stated a family
member was between the two sets of doors and said she had tried to stop her. V21 stated R16 was
approximately 25 yards down the street when he got outside. V21 stated R16 was very resistant to coming
back to the facility and became verbally combative. V21 stated they did eventually get R16 back to the
building. V21 stated as far as he knew, it was the first time R16 had attempted to and/or eloped. V21 stated
when he left R16 to look for the elopement alert bracelet, there were several staff members with R16, and
he wasn't sure where R16 was while he was looking and/or how she got out of the facility without staff
being aware. When asked if he could remember interventions that were in place to prevent elopement prior
to 6/16/24, V21 stated there was no elopement alert bracelet in place, and he couldn't remember any
specific interventions. When asked what current interventions were in place to prevent elopement, V21
stated he wasn't sure if they were care planned, but R16 liked to fold clothes and clean up after meals. V21
stated the facility setting makes R16 feel like she is working. V21 stated evening is worse, but R16 always
wanders and is exit seeking. V21 stated they are short staffed, and he didn't feel like they had enough staff

charming. V31 stated on 6/16/24 she responded to the front door alarm and V21 was right behind her. V31
