**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were free from abuse for 1 of
6 residents (Resident #2) reviewed for abuse. The facility failed to ensure Resident #3 did not physically
abuse Resident #2. On 07/17/25, Residents #2 and #3 physically attacked each other and Resident #2
suffered scratches to her left cheek and lip. The noncompliance was identified as PNC. The noncompliance
began on 07/17/25 and ended on 07/17/25. The facility had corrected the noncompliance before the survey
began. This failure placed residents at risk for abuse. Findings included: Record review of Resident #2's
Quarterly MDS Assessment, dated 07/23/25, reflected she was a [AGE] year-old female who was originally
admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident had severe cognitive impairment with a BIMS (cognitive

days. Her active diagnoses included non-Alzheimer's disease (a general term for any form of dementia that
is not classified as Alzheimer's disease) and unspecified dementia (the specific type of dementia cannot be

to get agitated. CNA E said Resident #2 walked up and down the hallway all day long and Resident #3 liked
to walk around as well and would try to help others since she used to be a CNA herself. CNA E said staff
assured Resident #3 that she did not need to help them with the other residents and distracted her with

Resident #3 went to push the door open again and Resident #2 slammed it shut on her. LVN D said
Resident #3 opened the door again and grabbed Resident #2's hair and Resident #2 started punching
Resident #3. LVN D said she saw Resident #3 stumble back into the wall behind them in the hall and by

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
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident received adequate
supervision and assistive devices to prevent accidents for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for
accidents. The facility failed to ensure Resident #1, who had dementia, was provided with adequate
supervision to prevent her from eloping from the facility on 08/08/25. The resident was found half a block
away from the facility. The noncompliance was identified as past noncompliance. The Immediate Jeopardy
began on 08/08/25 and ended on 08/08/25. The facility had corrected the noncompliance before the
investigation began. This failure could place residents who require supervision at risk of harm, severe injury,
and possible death. Findings included:Record review of Resident #1's admission Record, dated 09/04/25,
reflected the resident was a [AGE] year-old female who admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses
included cerebral infarction unspecified (when the blood supply to part of the brain is blocked or reduced
which prevents brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients and brain tissue begins to die), unspecified
dementia (a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking and social abilities), with unspecified severity
and without behavioral disturbance; psychotic disturbance (a severe mental health condition characterized
by a disconnection from reality); mood disturbance (mental health conditions that primarily affect a person's
emotional state); and anxiety (an abnormal and overwhelming sense of apprehension and fear often
marked by physical signs). Record review of Resident #1's Optional State Assessment MDS Assessment,
dated 07/13/25, reflected the resident was a [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on
[DATE]. The resident had severe cognitive impairment with a BIMS (cognitive screening tool) score of 6.
The MDS reflected the resident did not have wandering behaviors. Record review of Resident #1's
Elopement Risk Evaluation, dated 07/17/25, which is used to assess the likelihood of a resident leaving a
facility without the facility's knowledge and supervision, reflected the resident was at a moderate risk of
elopement with a score of 6. Record review of Resident #1's Consent for Secured Unit, dated 08/08/25
reflected Resident #1 gave consent to be placed on the Secured Unit. Record review of Resident #1's
Progress Notes from 07/10/25-08/07/25 reflected no documented evidence that she was exit-seeking or
had made any elopement attempts. Record review of Resident #1's Progress Notes written by LVN K on
08/08/25 at 6:34 PM reflected: Today around 1500 [3:00 PM] [Resident #1] was found outside down the
street by staff members after she escaped our facility by following an unknown someone who was exiting
the building after they used the passcode that only staff knows. She was found with her walker outside and
was brought back to the facility. We looked through the sign-out binder to see if anyone signed her out today
and no one had signed her out. When I asked her roommate if she had any knowledge or warning from
[Resident #1] that she was going to try and escape her roommate said ‘Yes. [Resident #1] said she was
getting out of here.' When I asked [Resident #1] why and how she escaped outside today she said, ‘I don't
want to be here anymore people are mean to me and call me names.' And when describing how she got
out she said, ‘Someone got out of a car, went to open the door, as that person was entering, another
person exiting, and I followed that person out the door.' I called her Responsible Party to alert her to this
elopement, she didn't answer my call, I left a voicemail. Record review of Resident #1's Care Plan, dated
09/05/25, reflected: Focus: [Resident #1] resides in secure unit related to High Risk for Elopement-8/8/25:

walking in the middle of the street. Housekeeper M said the resident said she had been kicked out of where
she lived, and so the Pope told her to leave. Housekeeper M asked the resident her name, but she was not
familiar with the individual's name. Housekeeper M returned to the facility and went directly to the
Administrator. Housekeeper M stated she told the Administrator the name given, but he did not recognize
the name (he later learned that was not her first name). However, the Administrator immediately began
walking down the street toward the resident while Housekeeper M drove her car to the resident.
Housekeeper M asked the resident to get in the car, and she did. The Administrator arrived to them and
recognized the resident and got into the car as well. They brought Resident #1 back to the facility where

when entering the building. The Administrator stated he discovered Resident #1 was gone about five
minutes after reviewing facility video footage. The Administrator also stated he did not have a copy of the
video footage because the camera footage only saved nine days at any given time. The Administrator
