Notify the resident or the resident’s representative in writing how long the nursing home will hold the
resident’s bed in cases of transfer to a hospital or therapeutic leave.
Based on review of policies and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to provide a written notice of the facility's bed-hold policy to the resident and/or the resident's
representative at the time of transfer for three of three residents reviewed (Residents 1, 2, 3).
Findings include:
The facility's policy regarding bed holds (holding a resident's bed while the resident is absent from the
facility for hospitalization), dated October 6, 2023, indicated that the admission director/designee will
contact the resident/resident's representative following a facility-initiated transfer to an acute care facility or
hospital. The original copy of the facility's bed-hold policy was to be placed in the resident's chart and the
copy can be given to the family. This can be in person or sent via email. If the representative is present,
then they can be informed at that time. Then document in the resident's electronic medical record that the
resident/representative was notified either via phone call or in person and received a copy and the original
was placed in the chart. When making a phone call to the resident/resident representative to inform them of
their options, indicate their choice made on the form. Document on the form that the call was made, and the
date and time of the call.
Nursing notes for Resident 1, dated January 8, 2024, revealed that the resident was admitted to the
hospital on this date. However, there was no documented evidence that a written copy of the facility's
bed-hold policy was provided to the resident and/or responsible party at the time of his transfer to the
hospital.
Nursing notes for Resident 2, dated December 30, 2023, revealed that the resident was admitted to the
hospital on this date. However, there was no documented evidence that a written copy of the facility's
bed-hold policy was provided to the resident and/or responsible party at the time of her transfer to the
hospital.
Nursing notes for Resident 3, dated August 9, 2023; November 17, 2023; December 3, 2023; and
December 16, 2023, revealed that the resident was admitted to the hospital on those dates. However, there
was no documented evidence that a written copy of the facility's bed-hold policy was provided to the
resident and/or responsible party at the time of his transfers to the hospital.
Interview with the Nursing Home Adminstrator on January 26, 2024, at 1:20 p.m. confirmed that a copy of
the facility's bed-hold policy was not provided to Residents 1, 2 and 3 or their responsible parties at the
time of their transfers to the hospital.

Permit a resident to return to the nursing home after hospitalization or therapeutic leave that exceeds
bed-hold policy.
Based on review of facility policies and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that
the facility failed to permit the readmission of a hospitalized resident without providing evidence that the
facility was not able to meet the resident's needs for one of three residents reviewed (Resident 1).
Findings include:
The facility's policy regarding notice requirements for transfer/discharge of a long-term resident, dated
October 6, 2023, indicated that the facility must permit each resident to remain in the facility and not
transfer or discharge the resident from the facility unless the transfer or discharge is necessary for the
resident's welfare and the resident's needs cannot be met in the facility, the safety of individuals in the
facility is endangered due to the clinical or behavioral status of the resident, or the health of individuals in
the facility would otherwise be endangered. The facility must also be sure to document the danger that
failure to transfer or discharge would pose.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and
care needs) for Resident 1, dated December 27, 2023, revealed that the resident was understood,
understands, exhibited no behaviors, and had diagnoses that included osteomyelitis (a serious infection of
the bone that can be either acute or chronic), diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD - a
group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related problems), and aquired absence of the
right great toe.
A nursing note for Resident 1, dated December 20, 2023, revealed that the resident arrived around 12:45
p.m. via med van in a wheelchair and was alert but confused.
Nursing notes for Resident 1, dated December 27, 28, and 30, 2023, and January 3 and 4, 2024, revealed
that the resident was being noncompliant with his nonweight bearing status to his right leg and when staff
attempted to re-educate and re-direct him, he would become agitated and threaten them.
Nursing notes for Resident 1, dated January 6 and 7, 2024, revealed that the resident was being more
cooperative with his nonweight bearing status to his right leg.
A nursing note for Resident 1, dated January 8, 2024, at 1:59 a.m. revealed that the resident has
continuously and purposely gotten out of his bed and gone down to his knees beside his bed on his fall mat
and
awaits staff intervention (requesting to lift him up). He was assisted to his wheelchair and he was taken to
the nurses' station for close observation. The resident would then get up on his own without assistance,
would not allow staff to assist him, and states that the staff don't know what the f**k they are doing. At least
four staff persons, including this writer, attempted to educate him about his risk of falling and hurting
himself, and the safety issues, as well as his increased risk for infection with his foot and walking on a dirty
floor with no socks or foot covering. For safety reasons and his continued noncompliance and intentional
acting-out behaviors, he will have included in his care plan that he is able to put himself on the fall mat
beside his bed. A nursing note at 3:31 a.m. revealed that the nurses responded to the resident's room for
the bed alarm sounding between approximatley 3:30 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. and the resident was kneeling on
the floor. Incontinent care was

provided at that time. Approximately five minutes later the bed alarm sounded again, and nursing staff
responded to find him kneeling on the floor again. An order was obtained to transport the resident to the
hospital for continuing to possibly harm himself as well as having an acute change in mental status.
Emergency services (9-1-1) was contacted and the resident was transported out of the facility at
approximately 4:30 a.m. A nursing note at 10:18 a.m. revealed that the resident was being admitted to the
hospital with a diagnosis of altered mental status and toe infection.
There was no documented evidence that the facility could not meet Resident 1's needs related to
behaviors, and no documented evidence that the resident's discharge was based on a valid discharge
reason. The facility did not wait until he was treated and discharged from the hospital to determine if the
facility could not meet the resident's needs.
Interview with the Director of Nursing on January 26, 2024, at 2:15 p.m. confirmed that there was no
documented evidence in the clinical record of the reasons why the facility was not able to meet the
resident's needs. She indicated Resident 1 was very noncompliant and was wandering in other residents'
rooms as well as being verbally aggressive toward staff. He also threatened to punch me in the f*****g face
when I was just trying to get him a drink. We did talk about it as a team and with the physician that we were
not able to meet his care needs here at the facility, and that is why it was decided that he would not be able
to return here.

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
Based on review of policies and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to maintain clinical records that were accurately documented for one of three residents
reviewed (Resident 1).
Findings include:
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and
care needs) for Resident 1, dated December 27, 2023, revealed that the resident was understood,
understands, and had a diagnosis which included osteomyelitis (a serious infection of the bone that can be
either acute or chronic) and aquired absence of the right great toe.
A wound healing center note for Resident 1, dated January 2, 2024, revealed that staff was to leave the
dressing on the resident's foot for three days and then apply betadine dressings daily.
Review of Resident 1's Treatment Administration Record (TARs) for January 2024 revealed that staff
completed the betadine dressing to the resident's right foot on January 5, 2024. However, there was no
documented evidence that the betadine dressing was completed on January 6 and 7, 2024, as per the
wound healing center's recommendations.
Interview with the Director of Nursing on January 26, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. confirmed that there was no
documented evidence that the betadine dressing was completed as per the wound healing center's
recommendations on January 6 and 7, 2024.
Interview with Registered Nurse 1 on Janaury 26, 2024, at 1:30 p.m. revealed that she completed the
betadine dressing to Resident 1's right foot on January 6 and 7, 2024. She indicated that she recalls that
the resident was always noncompliant and standing on that foot and that the dressing was off his foot on
the 6th, so she went in and completed the treatment. She indicated that she also completed the treatment
on the 7th as well.
