Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policies and clinical records, observations and staff interviews it was determined that the
facility failed to identify a bolster (a long, thick cushion) as a possible restraint, and failed to assess the
functional status of the individual resident to determine if the use of a bolster is a restraint for one of four
residents (Resident R76).Findings include: Review of facility policy Restraint Policy dated 7/3/25, last dated
1/19/24, indicated physical and/or chemical restraints will be initiated only after a comprehensive review
determines that they are necessary to treat the resident's medical symptoms that warrant their use. Use the
Enabler Restraint Observation to determine if the device restricts the resident's freedom of movement.
Before proceeding with the device identified as a restraint, the interdisciplinary team evaluates factors
leading to the consideration of the device, determines that all the resident's needs are being met and the
need to restraint is not due to unmet needs, determines that all alternative measures have been attempted
and found to be unsuccessful, weighs the risks versus benefits of the restraints being considered, involves
resident and family in decision making and educates them regarding risks and benefits, analyzes all
information and decides which devices is most appropriate, and develops measures to minimize risk and
resident decline as a result of use. Physical Restraint is defined as any manual method or physical or
mechanical device, material, or equipment attached or adjacent to the resident's body that the individual
cannot remove easily which restricts freedom of movement or normal access to one's body. Review of the
clinical record indicated Resident R79 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident R79's
Minimum Data Set (MDS - a periodic assessment of care needs) dated 7/29/25, indicated diagnoses of
high blood pressure, muscle weakness, and other lack of coordination. During an observation on 8/18/25,
at 10:33 a.m. Resident R76 was observed lying in bed with bolsters between her their body on both sides
of the bed. Review of a physician order dated 11/29/23, indicated resident to use bilateral (both sides)
bolsters while in bed as tolerated. Review of Resident R76's care plan dated 2/10/25, indicated the resident
has a history of falling related to decreased safety awareness, alteration in cognition, and impulsivity.
Interventions include keep bed in lowest position with brakes locked. Floor mat to door side of bed, contour
mattress with bolsters overlay, bilateral foam wedges for positioning, every shift, as tolerated. Review of
Resident R76's clinical record failed to identify any assessments or ongoing evaluations for the use of
bolsters. During an interview on 8/22/25, at 11:36 a.m. information was disseminated to the Director of
Nursing that the facility failed to assess Resident R76 for a restraint, and failed to have any ongoing
evaluation of a possible restraint related to the use of bolsters. 28 Pa. Code: 211.8(e) Use of restraints.28

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy, clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to notify
physicians of abnormal Capillary Blood Glucose (CBG) readings as per physician's order for one of three
sampled residents (Residents R148) and failed to provide comprehensive skin assessments and provide
appropriate care and treatment for two of five residents (Resident R31 and Residents R38) reviewed with
skin condition concerns and failed to follow physician orders for vitals for one of five resident (Resident R2).
Findings include:

§ 483.25 Quality of care Quality of care is a fundamental principle that applies to all treatment and
care provided to facility residents. Based on the comprehensive assessment of a resident, the facility must
ensure that residents receive treatment and care in accordance with professional standards of practice, the
comprehensive person-centered care plan, and the residents’ choices.
Review of facility policy Skin and Wound Care Best Practices dated 7/3/25, indicated the purpose is to
provide evidence based preventative skin care and wound treatment to prevent unavoidable skin
complications.
Review of facility policy Pressure Injury Prevention and Treatment Policy darted 7/3/25, indicated that
residents will be assessed for pressure injury risk on admission, quarterly, and with significant change in
condition using the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk. Pressure injuries identified will be
assessed initially and at least weekly thereafter, until closed. Other wound types will be assessed every
shift to determine presence of any ordered dressings and wound characteristics if observable. All
assessments will include the following elements:
- Location and stage *if pressure injury);
- Size, depth and the presence, location and extent of any undermining or tunneling/sinus tract;
- Exudate, if present: type, color, odor and appropriate amount;
- Pain, if present: nature and frequency
- Wound bed: color and type of tissue/character including evidence of healing as appropriate;
- Appearance of surrounding tissue;
- Any evidence of infection.
The facility Hypoglycemia” policy dated 3/12/24, last reviewed 7/3/25, indicated that nursing g
personnel are responsible for recognizing signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and
responding accordingly. Treatment of hypoglycemia will be at the direction of the attending provider.
The Centers for Disease Control defines diabetes as: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic (long-lasting) health
condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into
sugar (also called glucose) and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals
your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar

into your body's cells for use as energy. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin
or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop
responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious
health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease. Hypoglycemia is a condition that
occurs when blood glucose is lower than normal, usually below 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). If left
untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to weakness, confusion, unconsciousness, arrhythmias and even death.
People with Diabetes Mellitus may be prescribed injectable insulin to assist in maintaining acceptable levels
of CBG's. Hyperglycemia, or high blood glucose, occurs when there is too much sugar in the blood. This
happens when your body has too little insulin. Hyperglycemia is blood glucose greater than 125 mg/dL
while fasting (not eating for at least eight hours, or a blood glucose greater than 180 mg/dL one to two
hours after eating. If you have hyperglycemia and it's untreated for long periods of time, you can damage
your nerves, blood vessels, tissues, and organs. Damage to blood vessels can increase your risk of heart
attack and stroke, and nerve damage may also lead to eye damage, kidney damage and non-healing
wounds.

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, review of facility documentation, review of clinical records, and staff interview, it was
determined that the facility failed to identify and assess a resident for smoking safety in a timely manner for
two of two residents (Residents R79 and R98), failed to reassess a resident after an elopement (resident
exits to an unsupervised or unauthorized area without the facility's knowledge), and failed to develop a
comprehensive care plan with interventions to address the potential for elopement for one of three
residents (Resident R110).Findings include:
Review of the facility policy Resident Smoking Policy dated 7/3/25, and previously dated 1/19/24, indicated
that during the admission process, nursing will ask residents if they smoke or have a desire/intent to smoke
while in the facility. Anyone answering yes is further assessed for smoking safety awareness and the need
for reasonable physical or safety accommodations. The assessment is completed thereafter on
readmission, quarterly, and with significant change in the resident's condition.
Review of facility policy Elopement/Unauthorized Absence dated 7/3/25, previously dated 1/19/24, indicated
the facility will identify residents with potential and/or actual risk factors for elopement and protect the
resident through development and implementation of safety interventions. All residents will be assessed for
the risk of elopement using the Elopement Observation on admission, quarterly, and as needed. Residents
identified at risk will have interventions promptly implemented to reduce the risk of elopement. Residents
identified at risk will have their picture and face sheet or demographic form placed in a binder that is kept in
an area accessible by staff.
Review of the Resident Assessment Instrument 3.0 User's Manual, effective October 2024, indicated that a
Brief Interview for Mental Status (“BIMS”) is 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
Facility provided a list of current smokers at the facility at survey entrance.
Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R79 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Review of Resident R79's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a periodic assessment of care needs) dated 7/29/25,
indicated diagnoses of high blood pressure, muscle weakness, and other lack of coordination.
Review of the facility provided list of current smokers did reveal Resident R79 as a smoker.
Review of Resident R79's clinical record revealed an Admission/readmission Observation dated 7/22/25.
The observation did not identify Resident R79 as a smoker.
Review of Resident R79's clinical record did not reveal a completed Smoking Risk Assessment.

family now and has been good about letting staff know when she's leaving. Her wanderguard is on her
power wheelchair.
During an interview on 8/19/25, at 9:56 a.m. Resident R110 stated, They [facility staff] didn't tell me I wasn't
allowed to leave the building on my own. I know that now.
During an observation on 8/19/25, at 10:00 a.m. of the Elopement Binder located at the 1B Nurses Station
failed to include Resident R110's picture or demographic form.

indicated that Resident R2 went out to the hospital in April and was sent back with a 30-day order for
Keppra. Resident R2 family member expressed concerns that after the hospital visit in April and after the
30-day order from April to May the facility failed to re-order Keppra , and they believe the Resident has not
been on Keppra since that 30-day order ended (May 2025).Resident R2 family Member informed the DON
(Director of Nursing ) of the incident. The family believes that the facility failed to continue the order for
Keppra past the 30 days from April till August when he received it in the hospital.
Review of Resident R2 clinical record - physician orders indicated the following:
Keppra (levetiracetam tablet; 500mg; amount: 1 tablet; Oral Special Instructions: Give 1 tablet by mouth
twice a daily for seizure activity dated 3/30/2025 thru 4/16/2025.

for 30 days, and the facility did not continue the Keppra after the 30 days and was unaware of Resident R2
not being on Keppra as previously ordered. DON and ADON confirmed that they did not become aware of
the issue until Resident R2 family member brought it to their attention. They confirmed that Resident R2
should have been on the Keppra as previously ordered or a physician note should have been documented
explaining why the Resident was not on the medication.
DON and ADON confirmed that the facility failed to give significant medication as needed and this resulted
in a significant medication error leading to Resident R2 being sent to the hospital.
Review of admission record indicated Resident R33 was admitted to facility 5/31/24.
