Ensure residents have reasonable access to and privacy in their use of communication methods.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on review of Resident Council Meeting minutes and maintenance work orders, observation, and
resident and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to ensure all residents had access to a
resident-only telephone for one of 20 residents sampled (Resident 1) and failed to provide privacy for
residents when having telephone calls on three out of three clinical nursing units.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
Interview with Resident 1 on January 29, 2025, at 11:40 AM revealed that the resident-only telephone,
located in the B-Wing Resident Lounge, was non-operational. Resident 1 stated that for three months, the
facility had informed him that the guy isn't available to fix it. He reported the issue during the January 22,
2025, Resident Council Meeting, but the facility had not addressed his concern.
Observation of the B-Wing Resident Lounge on January 29, 2025, at 12:06 PM revealed a landline
telephone on a countertop without a dial tone. Further observation showed the phone jack pulled out from
the wall with exposed phone cable wires.
Interview with Employee 2 (licensed practical nurse) on January 29, 2025, at 12:09 PM indicated that the
telephone in the B-Wing Resident Lounge was available for resident use, but only when operational.
Employee 2 further revealed that residents could use the landline telephone located behind each nursing
station but would need to request assistance from staff. The phone was positioned on the nursing station
counter, requiring the resident to sit in front of the nursing station during the call. Employee 2 verified that
this arrangement did not provide residents with privacy for their conversations.
Review of the January 22, 2025, Resident Council Meeting minutes revealed documentation of a concern
regarding the non-functional phone in the B-Wing Resident Lounge.
Review of maintenance work orders from December 1, 2024, through January 29, 2025, showed no
evidence that a work order had been placed to repair the phone in the B-Wing Resident Lounge.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on January 29, 2025, at 2:45 PM confirmed the facility failed
to provide telephone access to all residents and failed to provide privacy for resident telephone calls.
This failure resulted in residents not having access to a functional, resident-only telephone and not being
provided with privacy for telephone communications, impacting their ability to communicate confidentially
and independently.

Ensure that the facility has sufficient staff members who possess the competencies and skills to meet the
behavioral health needs of residents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, a review of clinical records, review of facility grievances, Resident Council Meeting minutes,
and resident and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to provide sufficient staff, providing
direct services to residents, who possess the necessary competencies and skills sets to provide nursing
and related services to assure resident safety and attain or maintain the highest practicable physical,
mental, and psychosocial well-being of each resident as evidenced the facility's inability to appropriately
manage and supervise the wandering and aggressive behaviors of two residents (Residents 4 and 20) out
of 20 sampled.
Findings include:
Review of clinical record of Resident 4 revealed that the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with
diagnoses to include dementia with other behavioral disturbances (a condition characterized by progressive
or persistent loss of intellectual functioning, especially with impairment of memory and abstract thinking,
and often with personality change), and violent behavior. Resident 4 resided on the B-Wing.
An End of PPS Part A Stay Minimum Data Set assessment (MDS- a federally mandated standardized
assessment process completed at specific intervals to plan resident care) dated January 18, 2025,
indicated that Resident 4 was severely cognitively impaired with a BIMS (brief interview for mental status, a
tool to assess the residents attention, orientation and ability to register and recall new information) score of
3 (0-7 represents severe cognitive impairment), and the resident was able to ambulate independently.
Review of Resident 4's plan of care dated November 22, 2024, revealed a focus area related to elopement
risk/wanderer due to disoriented to place and impaired safety awareness. Interventions included: distract
resident from wandering by offering pleasant diversion, structured activities, food, conversation, TV, and
books; notify appropriate departments of resident risk for elopement; every 15-minute checks, redirect as
needed if resident found in other rooms. Another focus area identified regarding physical aggressiveness
due to dementia and poor impulse control with interventions to: administer medications as ordered; assess
and anticipate resident's needs: food, thirst, toileting needs, comfort level, body positioning, pain, etc.;
provide physical and verbal cues to alleviate anxiety, give positive feedback, assist verbalization of source
of agitation, assist to set goals for more pleasant behavior, encourage seeking out staff member when
agitated; encourage activity participation for socializing with staff and peers; when resident becomes
agitated, intervene before agitation escalates. Guide resident away from source of distress. Engage calmly
in conversation. If response if aggressive, staff to walk resident calmly away and approach later.
Despite these interventions, nursing documentation from November 21, 2024, through January 29, 2025,
showed frequent incidents of wandering into other residents' rooms, exit-seeking behaviors, and aggression
toward staff and other residents as follows:
November 21, 2024, at 9:42 PM - resident was wandering into other residents' rooms and pushing on exit
doors. Redirected by staff multiple times.
November 22, 2024, at 2:59 PM - resident put on 15-minute checks for wandering/safety.

Continued interview with Resident 1 revealed that is scared to death of Resident 4 and Resident 20. He
stated a few days ago he was in the hallway and Resident 4 was coming down the hall and raised his fist
and said, do you want to fight. Resident 1 moved to the other side of the hall and went back to his room.
Then Resident 4 came into his room asking, Where is Margaret? He made a fist and came after me and
then the nurse took him out.
Residents Affected - Some
Resident 1 reported another incident occurred on January 25, 2025. He stated that Resident 20 came into
his room and stole one of his shirts. He stated, he keeps coming back into my room even though the nurse
and myself keep telling him it's not his room. The resident stated he filed two grievances for both
occurrences, but the facility has not addressed his recent concerns. He also stated he voiced his concern
regarding Resident 4 and 20 at previous Resident Council Meetings.
Review of facility's grievance for December 2024, and January 2025, revealed no grievance filed on behalf
of Resident 1 or any grievances filed regarding Residents 4 and 20.
Review of the Resident Council Meeting minutes for December 2024, and January 2025, revealed no
concerns documented regarding intrusive wandering residents in the meeting minutes.
Interview with Resident 18, Resident Council President, revealed concerns reported by Resident 1
regarding Residents 4 and 20 were brought up in past meetings. He indicated the January 22, 2025,
meeting was conducted by the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) and the Director of Human Resources.
He stated that the NHA said she would follow up with Resident 1's concern.
Continued interview with Resident 18 revealed that Residents 4 and Resident 20 wander into resident
rooms frequently with Resident 20 making threatening remarks.
Interview with Resident 19 reported that Residents 4 and Resident 20 have wandered into her room. She
stated, everyone knows to stay away from them. She stated that they have entered her room, uninvited,
multiple times, even at Two or three in the morning, keeping me up. She indicated a few weeks ago
Resident 4 walked into her room, sat down on her chair and made a phone call. She said she is
claustrophobic but sleeps with the door closed in order keep unwanted wanderers out and to keep her
feeling safe.
Interview with Resident 17 stated Resident 20 was here last night. He sat down on my bed, and he wouldn't
leave. My daughter was here and rang the buzzer. She continued, that's the second or third time he's been
in my room, mostly in the evening. She stated when she calls for help, staff come in to remove him, but it
makes her feel very uncomfortable and uneasy.
Interview with two staff members on January 29, 2025, at approximately 11:30 AM, who wish to remain
anonymous, indicated Resident 4 and Resident 20 are difficult to manage and keep track of due to their
dementia, behaviors, and ability to ambulate independently. They feel the facility does not assign enough
staff members to the B-Wing to manage behaviors and conduct the 15-minute checks required of multiple
residents who reside on the B-Wing. One staff member revealed staff are afraid of Resident 20 due to his
violent outburst and physical aggressiveness.
Interview with Employee 1 (activity aide) on January 29, 2025, at approximately 12:20 PM confirmed that
Residents 4 and Resident 20 do not engage in group activities as they either refuse to attend or will get up
and leave the group activity.
