**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to follow their policy to transfer a resident according to the
resident's care plan. This applies to 1 of 3 residents reviewed for improper nursing care in the sample of 5.
The findings include:
R1's EMR (Electronic Medical Record) showed R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with multiple
diagnoses including Parkinson's disease, heart failure, dementia, anxiety, and falls. R1 was discharged
from the facility on November 11, 2023.
R1's MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated August 10, 2023, showed R1 had severe cognitive impairment. R1
required extensive assistance from two facility staff for transfers between surfaces.
R1's ADL (Activity of Daily Living) care plan dated September 28, 2019, showed, [R1] requires extensive to
total assist with ADL, non-ambulatory requiring total staff assist with transfers with [mechanical lift]. Has
diagnosis of Parkinson's and dementia receiving hospice care. Potential for ROM (Range of Motion) decline
due to immobility and use of [high back wheelchair]. Multiple interventions dated November 19, 2020,
including, Transfer: [mechanical lift], extensive assistance, two plus persons physical assist. The care plan
continued to show an intervention dated August 11, 2022, [Mechanical lift] for transfers.
On November 20, 2023, at 1:03 PM, V3 (CNA/Certified Nursing Assistant) said V3 cared for R1 on
November 4 and November 5, 2023. V3 said he transferred R1 multiple times during those shifts and each
time he transferred R1 by himself and did not use the mechanical lift. V3 said V3 put his arms under R1's
armpits and picked R1 up and pivoted R1 to the bed or the wheelchair. V3 said V3 knew R1 required a
mechanical lift for transfer, but since R1 was so small V3 did a manual transfer by himself without the
mechanical lift.
On November 20, 2023, at 1:45 PM, V5 (CNA) said V5 cared for R1 on November 3, 2023. V5 said when
V5 transferred R1 he used the mechanical lift by himself. V5 said V5 transferred R1 by himself because R1
was having a good day and V5 thought it would be safe to transfer R1 by himself. V5 said facility staff are
always supposed to transfer residents with a mechanical lift with two staff members.
On November 20, 2023, at 4:21 PM, V2 (DON/Director of Nursing) said V3 and V5 should have transferred
R1 using the mechanical lift with two facility staff members present.
