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
clinical record review, policy review, review of facility documentation, observation, and staff interviews, it
was determined that the facility failed to provide necessary supervision to monitor a resident's whereabouts
and prevent an elopement (unauthorized departure from the facility) by one of four sampled residents at
risk for elopement. (Resident 1) This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy situation. The incident has
been identified as past non-compliance. Findings include:Review of the facility policy entitled, Elopement,
last reviewed on July 1, 2025, revealed that staff was to monitor residents' whereabouts who were at risk for
unsafe wandering and elopement. The policy further indicated that facility staff was to initiate the missing
resident action plan if unable to locate a resident.Clinical record review revealed that Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE], and had diagnoses that included bipolar disorder, depression, and
anxiety disorder. According to the Minimum Data Set assessment (a periodic evaluation of resident care
needs), dated April 28, 2025, the resident had memory impairments, could walk without physical
assistance, and required supervision when walking. According to the comprehensive care plan, the facility
identified that the resident had impaired decision making and required supervision. On July 22 and 24,
2025, nurses noted that the resident was seen walking a lot and pacing. On August 2, 2025, a nurse noted
that he was anxious and confused. On August 6, 2025, a nurse noted that local police called the facility at
4:15 p.m. to inform the facility that they located Resident 1 walking and were taking him to the hospital for
evaluation. According to the officer's statement, the resident was located approximately two miles away
from the facility. The resident was assessed at the hospital where he was found to have no injuries related
to the elopement after an evaluation by a specialist. Review of the facility investigation revealed that he was
last seen by staff at approximately 2:30 p.m. near the entrance and likely walked out the front door when it
was opened for visitors. The investigation further revealed that the receptionist, who was responsible for
controlling who enters and leaves through the front door, did not see the resident leave despite opening the
door. The investigation indicated that both a nurse and an aide noticed that the resident was not on the unit
at approximately 3:15 p.m., however neither staff member initiated the missing resident action plan. The
facility was not aware that Resident 1 had left the facility until approximately 90 minutes after he left when
the police notified the facility. He returned to the facility on August 7, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. with no related
injuries.In an interview on August 11, 2025, at 2:00 p.m., the Administrator stated that the receptionist is
responsible for ensuring only authorized people enter and leave the building, and that nursing staff was to
ensure all residents were present at the start of their shifts. On August 12, 2025, at 4:30 p.m., the
Administrator was notified that the failure to provide adequate supervision to prevent elopement constituted
an Immediate Jeopardy situation at F689-J, and the Immediate Jeopardy template was provided. The
facility was informed that a corrective action plan was required.The facility identified
