F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few 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 review of facility policy, clinical records, facility documents, resident interview, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to provide adequate supervision resulting in an elopement (resident exits to an unsupervised or unauthorized area without the facility's knowledge). This failure created an immediate jeopardy situation for one out of 195 residents (Resident R1). Findings include: The facility Wanderer management program policy last reviewed on 1/9/23, indicated that the facility will provide safety measures for all residents who are deemed to be in need of additional safety measures including wander management. Elopement occurs when a resident who needs supervision leaves a safe area without supervision. The resident should have interventions in their comprehensive care plan to address elopement, residents should be assessed for safety, and physician orders written directing what level of access within the facility for which a resident is determined to be safe without direct supervision. Nurse aide staff will account for all monitored residents at the beginning of each shift, every two hours during the shift, and at the end of the shift. Review of Resident R1's admission record indicated he was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included diabetes (metabolic disorder impacting organ function related to glucose levels in the human body), hypertension (a condition impacting blood circulation through the heart related to poor pressure), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms involving breathlessness, coughing, and obstructed airflow to the lungs), cerebral infarction (a blockage to the brain resulting loss of blood and oxygen), chronic kidney disease (a loss of kidney function resulting in the swelling of feet, fatigue, high blood pressure and changes in urination), and Strabismus (a vision disorder in which the eye does not properly align). A review of the Resident Assessment Instrument 3.0 User's Manual effective October 2019, indicated that a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS, a screening test that aides in detecting cognitive impairment). The BIMS total score suggests the following distributions: 13-15: cognitively intact 8-12: moderately impaired 0-7: severe impairment Review of Resident R1's MDS assessment dated [DATE], Section C0500-BIMS screening indicated a score (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. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

During a review of security footage with Maintenance Supervisor Employee E1 and Security Chief Officer Employee E2 on 10/10/23, at 10:20 a.m. the following was observed: Footage starts at 9/30/23, at 8:23 p.m. Resident R1 observed fully clothed, with a jacket and a hat, getting on elevator at 8:23 p.m. At 8:24 p.m. Resident R1 exits the elevator to the first floor.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few During a phone interview on 10/10/23, at 2:08 p.m. with Agency Registered Nurse (RN) Employee E5 stated: I came to the work, around 11:30 p.m. The supervisor gave me the keys for my assignment. As I went through my chart, someone was checking on people. We realized Resident R1 was missing. The aides said they did not see him. I called and told the supervisor he was not here. I went and started looking for him. I think the RN supervisor went to look for him. The aides also were looking for him. I cannot recall the time, the RN Supervisor said he was located, and his family brought him back. The RN Supervisor stated he thought he eloped. The family never called to say he was gone. The RN supervisor was (Proper name) something. Or another name. It was an aide that figured out he was missing. The resident is fully alert and oriented. He did not come with any medicine or paperwork. I was told he cut his wander guard off. I was just going down and the aide came and told me he was missing. The resident was fully dressed, like he was going to church, like a visitor. During a interview on 10/10/23, at 2:57 p.m. Registered Nurse (RN) Supervisor Employee E6 stated the following: I did not provide a statement to the Director of Nursing. On 9/30/23, in the middle of the night, a nurse aide that does the wander guard checks said Resident R1 was not here. Camera checks found Resident R1 left the facility around 8:45 p.m. I contacted the Director of Nursing and attempted to call Resident R1's family and was unsuccessful in doing so. We called the police, and they were able to locate Resident R1. I did assess Resident R1 upon his return. No issues found. I'm not familiar with this guy. The Nurse aide that found he was missing was Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E11. We task one individual to the tasks to check the wander guards. Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E 11 was tasked with other things that evening. And I was not provided re-education about elopement. On 10/10/23, at 3:01 p.m. Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E11 was called for her statement and did not answer. During a phone interview on 10/10/23, at 3:21 p.m. Security Guard Employee E7 stated the following: I was working with another senior guard. I was new. This individual that eloped saw the guard and figured there was no one at the front desk and walked out. When Resident R1 hit the door, I was under the assumption that if the door alarm was going off, it would lock. I did not recognize Resident R1 as a patient. Normal patients are in wheelchairs. I did not know this guy. Resident R1 looked quite normal, like a worker. Like someone going out the wrong door. When the chief told me someone eloped, then we looked at the tape. I was told I should have looked at the tape sooner. Since I was new, I did not. I just assumed someone walked by the door and thought someone would go to where they were assigned. I thought it was a false alarm and I shut off the alarm. It was a complete failure. There was a 6-hour difference between the time Resident R1 walked out and the time he left. We had a lot going on that night on 9/30/23. I thought the doors locked when the alarm goes off, and they do not. I should have done more. Security Guard Employee E7's personnel record indicated he started working at the facility on 9/12/23 and he was trained on emergency preparedness procedures and the routine tasks involved in his job description. On 10/10/23, at 4:13 p.m. Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E8 was called for her statement and did not answer. Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E8 personnel record indicated that her first start date at the facility was 6/25/23. Her record indicated that she received orientation on abuse and elopement procedures on 7/27/23.
