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
medical record reviews, review of a Self-Reported Incident (SRI) investigation, policy review, and staff
interviews, the facility failed to ensure staff provided adequate supervision to prevent a resident, with
altered mental status and exhibited exit seeking behaviors, from leaving the facility unsupervised. This
affected one (Resident #6) of three residents reviewed for elopement. The facility census was 130.
Findings include:
Medical record review revealed Resident #6 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
Alzheimer's dementia and anxiety. Review of the most recent Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated
[DATE] revealed Resident #6 had severely impaired cognition and was ambulatory.
Review of the elopement assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #6 had no elopement history,
wandered aimlessly, was exit seeking, and resided on the secured unit.
Review of the facilities Self-Reported Incident investigation revealed an allegation of neglect was reported
to the State Survey Agency. Resident #6 had eloped from the secured unit on 06/30/24 at approximately
12:05 P.M. when the exit door alarm sounded. State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #72 found another
resident (Resident #4) outside in the parking lot after responding to the exit door alarm. The STNA did not
report to any staff immediately that she had found Resident #4 in the parking lot. When Licensed Practical
Nurse (LPN) #60 returned from her break at 12:30 P.M. she was informed that Resident #4 eloped and was
found in the parking lot by staff from a different unit. LPN #60 initiated a resident head count and discovered
Resident #6 was missing; the Director of Nursing (DON) was notified and arrived at the facility around 1:00
P.M. Resident #6 was found by STNA #75 at around 1:10 P.M. more than an hour later off the facility
premises 0.2 miles away. It appeared that Resident #6 walked along a pathway that was behind four
houses that was not near a street or dangerous area between the facility grounds and the area she was
found.
The investigation revealed that when the alarm sounded at 12:05 P.M. the STNAs on the secured unit did
not respond but Activity Staff #78 went outside the alarming door and did not observe any residents
outside. The staff did not report Resident #4's elopement to the DON, physician or responsible party until
07/01/24. Resident #4 was assessed on 07/01/24 with no injuries. When Resident #6 returned to the
secured unit, she was assessed with no injuries on 06/30/24. Staff did not observe either resident leave the
secured unit and there was no video footage, but the conclusion was most likely both residents exited the
facility together at 12:05 P.M. when the alarm sounded. The root cause identified the STNAs did not answer
the door alarm timely, and did not complete a thorough search or timely head count.
Interview with the DON and Corporate Registered Nurse (CRN) #100 on 07/22/24 at 10:00 A.M. verified
none of the staff observed Residents #4 or #6 exit the memory care. Staff did not report the 06/30/34
elopement involving Resident #4 until 07/01/24, STNAs did not answer the door alarm timely, complete a
thorough search or timely head count. The DON stated they had no video footage but most likely the two
residents exited at the same time without staff supervision and none of the staff received written
counseling; however, there was all staff training regarding elopements.
Interview on 07/22/24 at 4:05 P.M. with STNA #72 confirmed she worked a different unit and returned
