What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 2 deficiencies, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper authorities. Based on medical record review, review of the Certification and Licensure System (CALS), staff interview and review of facility policy, the facility failed to report incidents of elopement to the State Agency. This affected two residents (#03 and #18) of four residents reviewed for neglect. The facility census was 71. Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #03 revealed an admission dated of 11/21/23. Diagnoses included dementia, mild intellectual disabilities, impulse disorder, Alzheimer's disease with late onset, wandering in diseases classified elsewhere and unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition. Resident #03 had a legal guardian and resided on the secured memory care unit of the facility. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/25/24, revealed Resident #03 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 09, indicating he had moderate cognitive impairment. The assessment identified the resident to have behaviors of wandering and he was independent for ambulation. Review of a nursing note dated 11/02/24 at 3:58 P.M., and completed by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #144, revealed a call was received from the police department at 2:10 P.M. stating a resident (identified to be Resident #03) was on a street 0.7 miles away from the facility. The resident was crying and lost, taken to the police station and then brought back to the facility around 2:30 P.M. Further review of the note revealed the last time the resident was seen by the nurse was around 12:00 P.M. when the resident was eating pizza at a dining room table. Once Resident #03 was brought back to the facility by the police, a full head-to-toe assessment was completed. Vitals and assessment were normal and at baseline and the resident denied any pain. Resident #03 stated he waited until the food tray cart was being collected to sneak behind the cart as the door was opened by staff. Resident #03 stated he went out the front door to go home with his sister. The resident denied being hurt or in any pain. Facility staff were asked if anyone noticed Resident #03 elope and all staff denied seeing the resident. Education was provided to staff on elopement risk and wander guard function check. Resident #03 was placed on one-on-one staff supervision and the responsible party was notified. Full head count was completed, and all residents were accounted for. Review of a local police report revealed on 11/02/24 at 1:43 P.M., a call was received from a neighborhood resident who reported seeing an elderly male walking, who was stumbling and fell to the ground. Further review revealed the responding officer arrived on the scene at 1:50 P.M. and found Resident #03 on his hands and knees and appeared disoriented. The officer called EMS, who responded and (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.

F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm cleared the resident. EMS transported the resident back to the facility. The police response was cleared at 2:42 P.M. Review of CALS revealed no evidence a self-reported incident (SRI) related to Resident #03's elopement was reported to the state agency. Residents Affected - Few Interview on 11/07/24 at 8:35 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed Resident #03 eloped from the facility on 11/02/24. The DON further confirmed facility staff were unaware the resident was missing until the local police department contacted the facility after finding the resident approximately 0.7 miles away from the facility. 2. Review of the medical record for Resident #18 revealed an admission date of 11/30/23. Diagnoses included unspecified dementia, hallucination, mild cognitive impairment, acute osteomyelitis of the right ankle and foot, arthritis due to other bacteria to the right ankle and foot, and diabetes mellitus type II with diabetic neuropathy. Review of the quarterly MDS assessment, dated 10/04/24, revealed Resident #18 had a BIMS score of 11, indicating she had moderate cognitive impairment. The resident was independent for ambulation. Review of a nursing note dated 08/13/24 at 7:30 P.M. revealed Resident #18 was seen by oncoming shift staff in the church parking lot approximately 1.1 miles from the facility. Staff informed the writer of her location and staff were able to get the resident safely back to the facility. Once returned, a wander guard was placed on the resident and one-on-one with staff (supervision) was initiated. Resident #18 was assessed with no negative findings and the resident denied pain. She also denied any mental anguish and stated she was just going to get fresh air and grab something from the store, but then found herself lost and did not know how to get back. The Nurse Practitioner (NP), interim DON and Administrator were notified. Review of CALS revealed no evidence an SRI was reported to the state agency related to Resident #18's elopement. Interview on 11/12/24 at 9:22 A.M. with the DON, the Administrator, Regional Director of Clinical Services (RDCS) #160 and RDCS #161 revealed on 08/13/24, Resident #18 was seen in an area church parking lot approximately 1.1 miles from the facility. While Resident #18 was her own responsible person, the facility treated the incident as an elopement because the resident did not inform staff she was leaving the facility. Since the incident, the facility attempted to place a wander guard on Resident #18 and move her to the secured memory care unit, with the resident refusing each intervention. Resident #18 remained on one-on-one staff supervision pending the outcome of a guardianship hearing on 11/18/24. Interview on 11/12/25 at 1:45 P.M. with Regional Director of Operations (RDO) #245 verified the facility did not submit an SRI for either Resident #03 or Resident #18's elopements from the facility. Review of the facility policy titled Compliance with Reporting Allegations of Abuse/Neglect/Exploitation, dated 10/24/22, revealed the facility would report all alleged violations and all substantiated incidents to the State Agency and to all other agencies as required and take all necessary corrective actions depending on the results of the investigation. This deficiency was an incidental finding discovered during the complaint investigation.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. THE FOLLOWING DEFICIENCY REPRESENTS AN INCIDENT OF PAST NON-COMPLIANCE THAT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY CORRECTED PRIOR TO THIS SURVEY. Based on observation, medical record review, review of facility video surveillance, review of a local police report, facility policy review and interview, the facility failed to provide adequate supervision for Resident #03, who was assessed to be high risk for elopement, had a history of exit seeking behavior, resided on the secured memory care unit and had a wander guard (wearable device to help keep residents at risk of wandering safe) to prevent elopement. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and the potential for serious harm, injury and/or death on 11/02/24 at 12:44 P.M. when Resident #03 followed dietary staff through the secured memory care door, traveled through the facility and eloped through the front door without staff knowledge. Furthermore, Resident #03's wander guard alarmed (as designed) at the front door when he exited; however, staff failed to timely respond and further failed to adequately investigate the source of the alarm upon response. Resident #03 walked approximately 0.7 miles away from the facility, through a neighborhood with two large ponds of water along the route traveled. Resident #03 was found by the local police after a concerned neighborhood resident saw Resident #03 fall and called 911. Upon police arrival, Resident #03 was found on his hands and knees on the sidewalk. Facility staff were unaware Resident #03 was missing until notified by the local police department (LPD) he had been found, approximately two hours after he was last seen in the facility by staff. In addition, a concern that did not rise to an Immediate Jeopardy occurred when the facility failed to provide adequate supervision for Resident #18 resulting in the resident eloping from the facility without staff knowledge. The resident was found by a facility staff member who was traveling to the facility for their scheduled shift. This affected two residents (#03 and #18) of three residents identified by the facility as being assessed as high risk for elopement. The facility census was 71. On 11/12/24 at 1:49 P.M. the Regional Director of Operations (RDO) #245, Director of Nursing (DON), Regional Director of Clinical Services (RDCS) #160, RDCS #161 and Licensed Practical Nurse/Unit Manager (LPN/UM) #248 were notified Immediate Jeopardy began on 11/02/24 at 12:44 P.M. when Resident #03 followed Dietary Aide (DA) #157 off the secured memory care unit, unnoticed. Resident #03 eloped through the front door of the facility and staff failed to respond timely to the wander guard alarm at the front door. When staff did respond, approximately 20 minutes after the alarm sounded, staff did not fully investigate the source of the alarm, turned the alarm off and failed to conduct a resident head count to ensure all residents were accounted for. The facility was unaware the resident was missing until returned to the facility by the LPD, nearly two hours after he eloped. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed, and the deficient practice corrected on 11/04/24 when the facility implemented the following corrective actions: • On 08/13/24, upon discovery Resident #18 had eloped from the facility, a head count was initiated by Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) #136 and #137 and all additional residents were accounted for. • (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 365718 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 11 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 365718 B.

F 0689 Findings include: Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety 1. Review of the medical record for the Resident #03 revealed an admission date of 11/21/23 with diagnoses including dementia, mild with agitation; mild intellectual disabilities; impulse disorder; Alzheimer's disease with late onset; wandering in diseases classified elsewhere; and unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition. Further review revealed Resident #03 had a legal guardian and resided on the secured memory care unit of the facility. Residents Affected - Few Review of the current physician orders revealed the resident's orders included may reside on the secure unit due to need for a smaller, more structured environment related to dementia diagnosis, nurse to check function and battery life of wander guard and may go on leave of absence (LOA) with escort and medications. Review of the Risk of Elopement/Wandering Review assessment, dated 08/14/24, revealed Resident #03 was moderately cognitively impaired with poor decision-making skills (for example, intermittent confusion, cognitive deficits or disoriented). Resident #03 ambulated independently. The resident verbalized the desire to go home, packed belongings to go home or stayed near exit doors. The assessment indicated Resident #03 wandered aimlessly/non-goal directed and this was not a new behavior. Further review of the assessment revealed Resident #03 was at risk for elopement/wandering as evidenced by pushing on the secured unit doors and verbalizing the desire to leave. Resident #03 had a history of leaving the secured unit, but not the facility. Review of the plan of care dated 08/22/24 revealed Resident #03 was at risk for elopement/wandering behavior related to exit seeking behavior, high risk for elopement and exiting unit. Interventions included every 15-minute checks per nursing judgment, placement of wander guard to lower extremity and check placement and battery life, calmly redirect and divert the resident's attention, distract when wandering/insisting on leaving the facility by offering pleasant diversions and promptly check when alarm system goes off to ensure the resident is safe and remains in the facility. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/25/24, revealed Resident #03 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 09, indicating he had moderate cognitive impairment. The assessment identified the resident to have behaviors of wandering and was independent for ambulation. Review of a nursing note dated 11/02/24 at 3:58 P.M., and completed by LPN #144, revealed a call was received from the police department at 2:10 P.M. stating a resident (identified to be Resident #03) was on a street 0.7 miles away from the facility. The resident was crying and lost, taken to the police station and then brought back to the facility around 2:30 P.M. Further review of the note revealed the last time the resident was seen by the nurse was around 12:00 P.M. when the resident was eating pizza at a dining room table. Once Resident #03 was brought back to the facility by the police, a full head-to-toe assessment was completed. Vitals and assessment were normal and at baseline and the resident denied any pain. Resident #03 was wearing plaid pajama pants, a grey shirt and black slippers. Resident #03 stated he waited until the food tray cart was being collected to sneak behind the cart as the door was opened by staff. Resident #03 stated he went out the front door to go home with his sister. The resident denied being hurt or in any pain. Facility staff were asked if anyone noticed Resident #03 elope and all staff denied seeing the resident. Education was provided to staff on elopement risk and wander guard function check. Resident #03 was placed on one-on-one staff supervision and the responsible party was notified. Full head count was completed, and all residents were accounted for.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Review of a local police report revealed on 11/02/24 at 1:43 P.M., a call was received from a neighborhood resident who reported seeing an elderly male walking, who was stumbling and fell to the ground. Further review revealed the responding officer arrived on the scene at 1:50 P.M. and found Resident #03 on his hands and knees and appeared disoriented. The officer called EMS, who responded and cleared the resident. EMS transported the resident back to the facility. The police response was cleared at 2:42 P.M. Review of the current physician orders revealed an order dated 11/02/24 (following the incident) for Resident #03 to remain on one-on-one with staff (supervision). Interview on 11/07/24 at 8:35 A.M. with the DON and LPN/UM #248 revealed on 11/02/24, DA #157 went to the secured memory care unit to collect the meal cart. When DA #157 exited the unit at 12:44 P.M., Resident #03 caught the door just before it closed. The resident then walked up the 600-hall, around the corner, down the 300-hall and out the front door. The administrative staff revealed there was no receptionist that day and the resident did not pass any staff member. The DON verified Resident #03 had a wander guard and the front door alarmed when he exited but stated staff did not respond timely or thoroughly investigate the alarms. The DON further confirmed Resident #03 was found 0.7 miles away by the police after someone in the neighborhood called 911 stating an elderly person was walking around. The DON stated EMS assessed Resident #03 and the resident had no visible injuries and did not require further evaluation at the hospital. Additionally, the DON verified Resident #03 had a history of eloping off the secured memory care unit, but not the facility, and staff were unaware the resident was gone until contacted by the police. Following the incident, the DON stated all facility staff received education on facility policies and procedures. Interview on 11/07/24 at 10:56 A.M. with Medication Technician (MT) #102 revealed she worked on the secured memory care unit early in the day on 11/02/24. MT #102 stated staff were busy caring for other residents and did not see Resident #03 elope from the unit. MT #102 stated (prior to the incident) Resident #03 always tried to run off the unit by following staff through the secured memory care unit door and DA #157 did not look to ensure the resident was not following him when he left the unit with the meal cart. Observation on 11/07/24 at 4:00 P.M. of the facility video surveillance from 11/02/24, with the DON, verified Resident #03 eloped from the secured memory care unit by following dietary staff off the unit. Resident #03 proceeded to walk down two halls and exited the facility through the front door. Interview on 11/12/24 at 10:33 A.M. with DA #157 verified Resident #03 was able to elope on 11/02/24 when he did not check behind him when exiting the secured memory care unit.

HA #110 stated she responded, turned the alarm off and walked the perimeter of the parking lot. HA #110 stated she did not see anything and returned to the building without notifying anyone of the alarm. A telephone interview on 11/12/24 at 12:22 P.M. with LPN #144 revealed he was Resident #03's assigned nurse on 11/02/24. LPN #144 stated he last saw Resident #03 on that date around 12:00 P.M. when he was eating pizza brought in by his sister. LPN #144 stated he was caught up in his tasks and took a break from 12:25 P.M. to 1:05 P.M. LPN #144 verified he was unaware Resident #03 was missing until the police called around 2:10 P.M. Upon Resident #03's return to the facility around 2:30 P.M., LPN #144 assessed the resident, and no injuries or other concerns were identified.
