Employ or obtain outside professional resources to provide services in the nursing home when the facility
does not employ a qualified professional to furnish a required service.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review and interviews the facility did not ensure Resident #17, #40 and #48 had safe
and appropriate transportation services provided to them to get to their dialysis treatments at a dialysis
center outside of the facility. This affected three residents (#17, #40, and #48) of four reviewed for
transportation to dialysis. The facility identified four residents (#17, #24, #40 and #48) who required
transportation to dialysis. The facility census was 71.
Findings included:
Observation was conducted on 04/10/24 at 7:30 A.M. of the distance and path of travel between the facility
and the dialysis center. The path exited out the front doors of the facility, through the parking lot and up a
road approximately 1000 feet from the facility. The road was a sub-road off of a main road between the
facility and the dialysis center and was the road traffic needed to travel to get to various medical buildings
spread out within the area. The traffic was light at the time of the observation. There were no edge lines on
the road and there was grass and curbs to the sides so anyone being pushed in a wheelchair did not have
smooth passage on the road unless on top of the pave road where cars would pass. The road was not lit up
by streetlights and the pavement was smooth and free from potholes and obstructions. Closest to the
dialysis center the road inclined to a hill that was steep enough that it would require forceful pushing while
going up and a firm grip on the wheelchair when going back down the hill. There would be no protection
from the rain or snow as there was no awning construction over this path of travel.
Additional observations conducted on 04/10/24 throughout the survey process revealed two different
transportation company vehicles taking residents to and from dialysis. No additional safety concerns with
transportation were identified during the observation.
1. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #48 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included fracture of the second cervical vertebra, neoplasm of the bone, anemia, hypothyroidism, anxiety
disorder, hypertension, non-rheumatic aortic valve disorder, poly-osteoarthritis, sciatica, chronic kidney
disease, wedge compression fracture of thoracic vertebra, and history of falls.
Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #48
had intact cognition and required dialysis.
Review of the April 2024 physician's orders revealed Resident #48 had an order for dialysis on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday with a 4:15 A.M. chair time and a 3:45 A.M. pick up time.
On 04/10/24 at 1:00 P.M. an interview with Resident #48 revealed she has had to be pushed up the street
in a wheelchair to dialysis three times in the two weeks she had been at the facility because transportation
was not available. She stated once it was in the rain, and it was thundering and lightning. She stated the
staff gave her an umbrella, but the staff member only had a hoodie on and got wet. She stated they did not
take her up the big hill out front; instead, they took her up the side entrance which was not as steep. She
stated they left at 3:15 A.M. because she had to be there at 4:15 A.M. She stated then she found out the
facility had a van they could have taken. She stated it was an uncomfortable trip because she was in a neck
brace for history of a broken neck. She indicated all the jarring and bumps while being pushed on the road
were uncomfortable to her back and neck.

2. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #40 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anemia, diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerotic heart
disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, respiratory failure, gout, muscle weakness, end stage renal disease
with dependence on renal dialysis.
Review of the admission MDS 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #40 had intact cognition
and required dialysis.
Review of the April 2024 physician's orders revealed Resident #40 had an order for dialysis on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday with a 9:20 A.M. chair time and a 9:05 A.M. pick up time.
On 04/10/24 at 2:30 P.M., an interview with Resident #40 revealed the staff has had to push him up to
dialysis three times in a wheelchair. He stated he was not given a reason as to why and one time it was
snowing pretty hard. He stated it was bull (expletive).
3. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #17 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included gastrointestinal hemorrhage, left humerus fracture, heart failure, pleural effusion, colitis,
gastroenteritis, atherosclerotic heart disease, Barrett's esophagus, neuromuscular dysfunction of the
bladder, depression, hypertension, diabetes, end stage renal disease, abnormal posture, and spina bifida.
Review of the Five-Day MDS 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #17 had intact cognition and
required dialysis.
Review of the April 2024 physician's orders revealed Resident #17 did not have an order for dialysis.
On 04/10/24 at 2:45 P.M. an interview with Resident #17 revealed the staff has had to wheel her up to
dialysis in a wheelchair at least six times since she has been at the facility. She stated they tell her they do
not have transportation. She stated it was raining once but not hard. She stated it worried her to be on a
road where cars would travel.
On 04/10/24 at 12:35 P.M. an interview with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #403 revealed every
once in a while they had to take a resident across the street to the hospital which was no big deal because
it was all sidewalks. STNA #403 said they also had to take quite a few people including Resident #17, #40
and #48 to dialysis which was down the street and up a steep hill into their parking lot and it was scary. She
stated she was afraid she would lose them coming back down the hill because it had a good size decline.
She stated they sometimes must take residents at 4:00 A.M. when it was dark and required pushing them
down the street because there were no sidewalks. She stated sometimes it was raining. She stated she
knew of one resident (unidentified) they had to put a trash bag over so they would not get wet from the rain
while they pushed them in a wheelchair to dialysis.
On 04/10/24 at 12:40 P.M. an interview with STNA #407 revealed they had to push residents in wheelchairs
over to the hospital but not as much as they do to dialysis. She stated she refused to take residents to
dialysis because you had to push them up a big hill into the building. She stated sometimes it was at 4:00
A.M. because they had not gotten transportation set up yet. She stated it was ridiculous and very unsafe for
the staff and residents.
On 04/10/24 at 12:45 P.M. an interview with STNA #408 confirmed they had pushed residents over in

wheelchairs to the hospital in and up the road to dialysis. She stated she didn't think the hospital was a big
deal because it was right across the parking lot but stated the dialysis center was up the street and up a big
hill. She stated it was very hard to push the residents up that hill. She stated sometimes it was even raining
and dark out.
On 04/10/24 at 1:10 P.M., an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the facility pushed
residents in wheelchairs up the road to dialysis. She stated they had pushed them up the road to dialysis
when transport did not show up. She stated they scheduled transportation, but transportation did not always
show up. She stated the facility does not have a transport vehicle. She stated Resident #48 was the only
one who had an early morning chair time of 4:15 A.M. so she left with staff around 3:45 A.M. She stated
she was not aware it had been storming the one time. She stated staff should have called her and she
would have told them to send her to the hospital. She stated they have tried to reschedule; however, the
dialysis center does not always have time available. She stated they did reschedule Resident #48 one time
when transportation had not shown up to get her. She stated if the dialysis facility was across town they
would just send the resident to the hospital for dialysis if transportation was not set up.
