During the first day of the survey on 3/27/2023, the survey result was not seen anywhere by the facility's entrance lobby nor was it noted on the lobby of the third floor of the facility's building where it is the designated floor for the skilled unit. On 3/28/2023 at 1:55 P.M., surveyor asked V4 (Senior Director of Clinical Services) where the survey results were kept. V4 showed the survey results binder that was placed on top of the desk at the lobby of the third floor. There was no posting to indicate where to find the survey result binder. The survey result binder was mixed with other information such as the activity calendar and offender notification. This makes it difficult to determine without asking where the survey results were.

The electronic medical record (EMR) shows that R15 is 90 years-old who has multiple medical diagnoses to include dementia, muscle weakness and abnormality of gait and mobility, and unspecified fracture of the upper end of the right humerus, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing. Minimum Data Sheet (MDS) dated [DATE] shows that R15 is cognitively impaired and requires extensive assistance when being transferred. On 3/28/23 at 11:17 AM, V22 and V23 (Both Certified Nursing Assistants/CNA) transferred R15 from wheelchair to toilet via sit to stand. While being transferred, R15's knees were bent 45 degrees, like in a squat position, his hands were holding on to the bar handle of the sit to stand while his upper torso and armpits were hanging in the sling. R15's feet did not bear weight during transfer. R15's fall risk assessment dated [DATE] shows that R15 is moderately at risk for fall. 3. The electronic medical record (EMR) shows that R49 is 75 years-old who has multiple medical diagnoses which include dementia, cognitive communication deficit, and need for assistance with personal care. MDS dated [DATE] shows that R49 requires extensive assistance for transfer. On 3/29/23 at 10:44 AM, V18 (CNA) brought R49 to the bathroom with a wheelchair for toileting. V18 did not use a gait belt to assist R49, instead, she (V18) assisted R49 to stand by pulling up his waistband. R49 stood up unsteadily, then V18 proceeded to clean his back peri-area for incontinence care. On 3/29/23 at 2:49 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) stated that a resident on a sit to stand can have flexion in the knees but needs to be able to maintain standing balance and must be able to bear weight. V2 added, when transferring a resident who can stand and pivot, the staff must use a gait belt. This is for safety and proper body mechanics. R49's fall risk assessment dated [DATE] shows that R49 is a high risk for fall. Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure safety while transporting a resident in a wheelchair. R18 was transported by staff without legs rests attached to the wheelchair and fell forward when R18 placed her feet down. This resulted in R18 requiring sutures and an emergency room visit. The facility also failed to ensure proper techniques were utilized for R15 and R49 during transfers. This applies to 3 of 4 residents (R15, R18, R49) reviewed for falls and supervision in the sample of 20. The findings include: 1. R18's EMR (Electronic Medical Record) included that R18 is a [AGE] year old female with diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease with late onset, unsteadiness on feet, difficulty in walking, not elsewhere classified, unspecified abnormalities of gait and mobility, muscle weakness (generalized), bilateral primary osteoarthritis of knee, paranoid personality disorder, other specified anxiety disorders, atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery without angina pectoris. R18's MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 3/15/2023 showed that R18 was moderately impaired in cognition and required extensive assistance of one person physical assist for locomotion on and off unit.

Contact Precautions are intended to prevent transmission of infectious agents, including epidemiologically important microorganisms, spread by direct or indirect contact with the resident or resident's environment. Contact precautions also apply where the presence of excessive wound drainage, fecal incontinence, or other discharges from the body suggest an increased potential for extensive environmental contamination and risk transmission. It is the policy of this facility that in addition to Standard Precautions, Contact Precautions will be used to prevent the healthcare acquired spread of organisms that can be transmitted by direct resident contact (hand or skin-to-skin contact that occurs when performing resident-care) or by indirect contact (touching) with environmental surfaces or contaminated residents care equipment. Facility's Policy and Procedure for Hand Hygiene shows: Policy Statement: This facility considers hand hygiene the primary means to prevent the spread of infections. Procedure: 7. Use an alcohol-based hand rub containing at least 62% alcohol; or, alternatively, soap and water for the following situations: h. Before moving from a contaminated body site to a clean body site during resident care. j. After contact with blood or bodily fluids. m. After removing gloves.
