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
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident environment remained as free of
accident hazards as possible and each resident received adequate supervision to prevent accidents for 1 of
2 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for accidents and supervision.
The facility failed to prevent Resident #1 from eloping on 12/04/2023.
The non-compliance was identified as PNC. The Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) began on 12/4/2023 and ended
on 12/22/2023. The facility had corrected the non-compliance before the survey began.
This deficient practice could place residents who were elopement risks at-risk of harm, serious injury, or
death.
The findings were:
Record review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 05/14/2024, revealed the resident was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including: acute kidney failure (occurs when the kidneys suddenly become
unable to filter waste products from the blood), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a common lung
disease causing restricted airflow and breathing problems), epilepsy (a condition that causes frequent
seizures) and depression (a depressed mood or loss of pleasure or interest in activities for long periods of
time). Further review revealed the resident was his own RP.
Record review of Resident #1's admission MDS, dated [DATE], revealed the resident had a BIMS score of 5
which indicated a severe cognitive impairment. Further review revealed resident did not have any
behavioral issues and his level of ambulation was independent.
Record review of Resident #1's progress notes revealed a note dated 12/04/2023 at 02:30 AM indicated the
DON was notified at approximately 1:00 AM the staff could not locate the resident. The code for elopement
had already been initiated. A thorough search was conducted in the facility. Two staff members were
assigned to drive around the neighborhood. During this process the police department arrived with the
resident. The resident was happy to return to the facility and could not verbalize why he had left. A
head-to-toe assessment was performed. All vital signs were within normal limits. The resident appeared
unharmed and did not verbalize any pain.
Record review of Resident #1's medical record revealed he was found at a gas station approximately one
quarter of a mile from the facility.
