F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 record review, observation and interview, the facility failed to provide supervision for residents who required assistance to community doctor appointments. This affected one (Resident #42) of 18 residents reviewed. The facility census was 63. Findings included: Record review revealed Resident #42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included macular degeneration, dementia and muscle spasms. Review of the minimum data set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented no cognitive impairment. The resident required extensive assistance of one staff for locomotion on and off the unit and she had impaired vision. During interview on 06/05/19 at 8:39 A.M., Resident #42 stated she was sent out to an appointment sometime last week, which she was not supposed to go to, and she went by herself. During interview on 06/05/19 at 8:56 A.M., State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #5 stated Resident #42 was going to the ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctor on 05/30/19. STNA #5 said she was off that day and did not know why the resident was not seen at the appointment. She checked the schedule book which stated the appointment had been rescheduled for 06/10/19. Written on the paper with an asterisk which stated make sure family was present. During interview on 06/05/19 at 9:14 A.M., ENT Office Staff #300 stated Resident #42 had an appointment on 05/30/19, however she was unable to be seen as she was sent with another resident's paperwork. The resident was sent by taxi cab and the office was located on the third floor of the building. The resident has very limited vision and was unable to see to fill out the paperwork. Her family was not present nor was anyone from the facility. She said graciously the cab driver helped her up to their office since she could not see. She finally was able to get a hold of someone who did not even know the resident had an appointment. The facility was called and told the resident could not be seen, so they sent a taxi cab back to pick the resident up. During interview on 06/05/19 at 9:34 A.M., the Director of Nursing (DON) and Registered Nurse (RN) #37 stated they had spoke to STNA #5 and she had set up transport with the local transportation company, because her family was unable to take her. During interview on 06/05/19 at 9:42 A.M., RN #48 stated the resident's son normally would go with her to appointments. She said the cab came to pick her up and she thought this was strange, but she allowed her to leave for the appointment. She said later the doctor's office called, upset, and asked them not to send the resident alone in a cab. She did not have the correct paperwork, and she just sent her by herself in the cab. She further reported she did not call the cab, this was already set up. During interview on 06/06/19 at 8:36 A.M., the DON stated she was unaware the resident was sent out in a cab. She further said she would look into who set up transportation of the cab service because she should not have went alone in the cab.
