F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on medical record review and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure a resident was transported to and from off campus medical appointments in a timely manner resulting in delayed treatment. This affected one (Resident #24) of three residents reviewed for transportation to outside appointments. The facility census was 66. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #24 revealed a readmission date of 06/26/23. Diagnoses included unspecified displaced fracture of second cervical vertebra with routine healing, hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease, unspecified dementia and left frontal parietal scalp lesion consistent with known angiosarcoma. Resident #24 started radiation treatments to the left frontal parietal scalp on 09/19/23. Review of physician's orders revealed an order for Resident #24 to see the Brain and Spine Physician on 09/18/23. The resident was to be picked up at 8:15 A.M. and his daughter would meet him at the appointment. Special instructions included to have paperwork ready and to have the resident in a regular sized wheelchair. Further review of the medical record and progress notes from 07/03/23 to 09/26/23 revealed Resident #24 was scheduled for an initial appointment to have a stimulation evaluation on 08/09/23. There was no documentation as to why the resident missed the appointment. The stimulation evaluation was rescheduled for 08/16/23 and canceled due to transportation issues. The stimulation evaluation was rescheduled for 08/23/23, the resident missed the appointment and there was no documentation as to why the appointment was missed. The appointment was rescheduled for 08/28/23 and canceled due to transportation issues. Interview on 09/26/23, at 10:46 A.M. with Resident #24's daughter revealed she met her father for his appointment on 09/18/23 and stood in the parking lot while the driver of the van worked for an hour to get her dad out of the van. Resident #24 was an hour late for his appointment. She was upset, because this had happened before, and the facility had been instructed to put her father in a standard sized wheelchair prior to appointments. This was not the first time he was stuck. Resident #24's daughter stated the resident must be in a regular size wheelchair, because the insurance company's transportation contracts do not have transportation vans for wide wheelchairs. Interview on 09/26/23 at 10:55 A.M. with Facility's Transportation Associate (FTA) #112 revealed she arranged transportation for Resident #24 and instructed staff to ensure the resident was in a regular sized wheelchair. Resident #24 was picked up as scheduled on 09/18/23 at 8:15 A.M. About an hour later, FTA #112 received a call from the driver explaining he could not get Resident #24 out of the (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 0684 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few van. She told the driver to call back if he had additional problems, and he never called back. Resident #24 returned to the facility later that day. It was unknown which transportation company brought Resident #24 back to the facility. Interview on 09/26/23 at 5:56 P.M. with the Cab Representative #502 confirmed their driver picked up Resident #24 on 09/18/23 at 8:15 A.M. The driver stated Resident #24 was in a wide wheelchair. The driver was able to get Resident #24 loaded into the van, but it took several minutes of maneuvering to get him out of the van upon arrival to the appointment. The driver notified the facility of the issue. When transportation arrangements were made, it was assumed the wheelchair would fit in a certified van used to transport standard sized wheelchairs. Interview on 09/27/23 at 1:53 P.M. with Occupational Therapist (OT) #600 revealed Resident #24 had two wheelchairs, one was wide, which provided the resident more room, and one was normal sized, which was to be used when transporting the resident to and from appointments. The normal or standard size wheelchair was about 16 to 20 inches wide and had orange grippers to identify its size. OT #600 periodically checks to ensure the resident has a standard sized wheelchair is in his room available for when he has an outside appointment. Interview on 09/26/23 at 1:00 P.M. with Radiation Therapist (RT) #500 revealed the doctor saw Resident #24 on 07/26/23 for an initial consult for radiation treatment. Resident #24 was scheduled to have his stimulation evaluation for his angiosarcoma treatment on 08/09/23 and was to be transported via stretcher. The facility canceled the appointment, and Resident #24 was rescheduled four different times (4 within weeks) because the facility kept calling the clinic and canceling the evaluation. Resident #24 finally had his stimulation evaluation on 08/31/23. His radiation therapy started 09/19/23. Interview on 09/27/23 at 3:00 P.M. with Regional Clinical Director (RCD) #205 explained they followed Resident #24's insurance coverage when scheduling transportation for appointments. If the doctor wanted Resident #24's appointments sooner, he should have had the resident admitted as emergent to have the stimulation done. Interview on 10/02/23 at 9:26 A.M. with Radiation Physician (RP) #700 revealed Resident #24 missed the simulation evaluation four weeks in a row, which delayed his radiation treatment. The stimulation evaluation did not take place until 08/31/23. The facility denied having a policy or procedure for scheduling outside appointments for residents and making transportation arrangements. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00146741.
