When asked about what would happen in-between if an incident/or behavior occurred, the MDS
Coordinator stated the event and behaviors would be on a 24hr report, and verbalized to the clinical staff a
midst shift report, who would then use their nursing expertise to implement common interventions i.e.,
redirection, or activities. The MDS coordinator stated the verbalized previously mentioned requests would
not be implemented into the baseline care plan due the attempt to understand Resident #1's wants and
needs before prematurely care planning the behavioral events. MDS stated due to wander assessment, she
did not find it appropriate to use wander guard on Resident #1 due to low-moderate score and because
Resident #1 was his own RP. Referencing progress note on 12/03/23 at 10:07 a.m, MDS Coordinator
stated, she de-escalated and redirected Resident #1, and offered donation cigarettes, Resident #1 was
then okay after. MDS Coordinator stated she attended an in-service on 12/11 regarding procedure with a

plan within 48hours, and a comprehensive care plan by the 21st day after admission, as well as reiterated
she is not mandated to update care plan prior to the 21st day after admission.

was trying to leave, Resident #1 stated he wanted to get cigarettes. LVN A stated she was notified Resident
#1 left when visitors would leave. LVN A stated she implemented diversional activities of puzzles, and
activities to keep him engaged, but nothing to keep him hostage. LVN A stated after the redirection

members located Resident #1 at the corner of a restaurant that was approximately 1.3miles away. Both
stated, the two facility staff members attempted to persuade Resident #1 to return to the facility but were
unsuccessful, and under the direction of the DON, Resident #1 was given an Against Medical Advice form
to sign, which meant he was choosing to discharge against medical advice. Both stated, during a 24-hour
clinical report clinical meeting, Resident #1's wandering and trash digging were discussed and were
deemed as behaviors indicative of Resident #1's history of homelessness and planned to have snacks
readily available for Resident #1 as well as have cigarettes for him. Both stated Resident #1's verbalized
desire to sleep over at a friend's house, and leave were behaviors indicative of drug seeking but planned
through redirection and re-education from facility staff to care for Resident #1. Both stated, Resident #1 did
not have order to be out on pass due to drug seeking behavior. When the DON and Administrator were
questioned about the plan of care for Resident #1, and what plan they had in place to ensure the safety of
Resident #1's behaviors of drug seeking, sleeping over at a friend's house, wandering, and trash digging
both replied, the staff would use in conjunction with the 24-hour report, redirection, and re-education to
care for Resident #1. Both stated additionally, Resident #1's wander assessments were discussed within a
morning clinical meeting, and with the MDS Coordinator, did not find it appropriate to implement a wander
guard onto Resident #1's person, given that his assessment scores were low to moderate and was his own
RP. The Administrator stated after Resident #1's successful elopement on 12/09/2023, they changed the
door alarm system from 15seconds to a 10 second delay followed by alarm engagement. The DON and
Administrator stated after 8p.m. all first floor exiting doors will alarm if engaged, and the alarm will continue
