F 0604 Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, medical record review, facility policy review and staff interview the facility failed to ensure residents in reclined wheelchairs had physician's orders in place for use and were appropriately assessed to determine appropriate indication for use. This affected one resident (Resident #4) of one resident reviewed for possible physical restraint use. The facility identified no current residents utilizing physical restraints. The facility census was 70. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Observations of Resident #4 from 03/27/23 to 03/30/23 revealed the resident utilized a reclining tilt in space wheelchair (a wheelchair with a tilt feature permitting the whole chair to tilt 30 to 60 degrees while maintaining knees at a 90 degree angle). Review of Resident #4's medical record revealed an admission date of 08/01/18 with diagnoses that included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, peripheral vascular disease and hypertension. Review of Resident #4's Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 quarterly assessment with a reference date of 02/27/23 identified no use of any type of physical restraint. The resident had a severely impaired cognition level and required extensive to total assistance with all activities of daily living. Further review of the medical record for Resident #4 found no evidence of any physician's order for use of a reclining tilt in space wheelchair. Review of Resident #4's assessments including the Safety Device Data Collection and Evaluation completed on 03/12/23 identified the only device evaluated was the use of assist grab bars to the bed. No assessment for the use of the reclining tilt in space wheelchair was found. Review of Resident #4's plan of care found no care plan or intervention in place regarding the use of a tilt in space wheelchair. Interview with the Director of Nursing on 03/29/23 at 3:50 P.M. revealed Resident #4 uses the reclined tilt in space wheelchair for comfort and positioning as an enabling device, not a physical restraint. She also verified no physician's order for use of the reclined tilt in space wheelchair or assessment to determine if the device is a restraint or an enabling device. Review of the facility policy Restraints with a review/revise date of 01/02/22 revealed restraints shall only be used for the safety and well-being of the resident and only after other alternatives have been tried unsuccessfully. Restraints shall only be used upon the written order of a physician (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility.
