What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 1 deficiency, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0627 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Ensure the transfer/discharge meets the resident's needs/preferences and that the resident is prepared for a safe transfer/discharge. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to provide and document sufficient preparation and orientation of resident to ensure safe and orderly transfer or discharge from the facility and ensure the orientation was provided in a form and manner that the resident could understand for one (Resident #1) of five residents reviewed for discharge. The facility failed on 8/21/2025 to ensure Resident #1's post-discharge destination and continued care provider could meet Resident #1's needs in that Resident #1 did not go to the Resident Representative's (RP) home, Resident #1 was taken to another family members residence because Resident #1 RP couldn't care for her due to work schedule and on or about 25 or 26 August 2025 Resident #1's RP obtained an order of protective custody for Resident #1 and Resident #1 was arrested and taken to a psychiatric hospital.This failure could place residents at risk of being discharged without preparation, causing a disruption in their care and place the residents at risk for their needs not being met.This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy situation on 9/16/2025. While the IJ was removed on 9/18/25, the facility remained out of compliance at a severity level of no actual harm with potential for more than minimal harm due to staff needing more time to monitor the effectiveness for the plan of removal for inappropriate discharge. Findings included:Record review of Resident #1's Discharge summary, dated [DATE], revealed a [AGE] year-old female originally admitted on [DATE], re-admitted on [DATE], and discharged on 08/21/2025. Resident #1 had diagnoses which included: Cellulitis of left lower limb (bacterial infection of the skin and underlying tissues), acute respiratory failure with hypercapnia (inability of the lungs to effectively remove carbon dioxide), morbid (severe) obesity with alveolar hypoventilation (breathing disorder), diabetes mellitus (high blood sugar) without complications, unsteadiness on feet, lack oof coordination, generalized anxiety disorder (mental health conditions), dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere (a type of dementia that occurs as a secondary symptoms of another underlying medical condition), severe with mood disturbance, pain unspecified, reduced mobility, difficulty in walking, deficiency of other vitamins, unspecified intellectual disabilities, schizoaffective disorder (mental condition that combines symptoms of schizophrenia and a mood disorder), bipolar (manic depression), fluid overload, unspecified pyuria (high levels of white blood cells in urine), lymphedema (swelling in the body), iron deficiency anemia, pulmonary hypertension (blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs is abnormally high), acute on chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure, acute embolism and thrombosis of deep veins of unspecified lower extremity (blood clot in the deep veins of the lower leg), acute embolism and thrombosis of superficial veins of left upper extremity (new blood clot forming in a superficial vein in the left arm, or shoulder, which may involve a clot traveling through the bloodstream), muscle weakness, need for assistance with personal care, cognitive communication deficit person's ability to communicate effectively due to underlying impairments), acute cystitis without hematuria (inflammation of the bladder (cystitis) that does not (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

Resident #1 was in the dining room with the sitter. Police informed staff that they cannot arrest Resident #1 due to her mental capacity, nor could they detain her with OPC because she was in a facility where she could receive medical care. Resident #1's RP was informed that Resident #1 was a danger to others and was receiving immediate discharge notice. The SW explained to Resident #1's RP that she could take Resident #1 to psych hospital, but the officers could not take her. The NP stated Resident #1's RP wanted police to take Resident #1 because she could not force Resident #1 to do anything.

F 0627 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few of Resident #1's electronic health records from 8/21/2025 to 8/28/2025 revealed no documentation of verbal or written notice of intent to leave the facility. In a confidential staff interview on an undisclosed date, it was revealed that Resident #1's was not a safe discharge, and the RP could not properly care for Resident #1 because she had dementia, the resident was obese and had mood disorders and the RP was a small petite elderly woman who Resident #1 could potentially harm. During an interview on 8/28/2025 at 9:10 a.m., with the Administrator revealed there was an unwitnessed incident on the secured unit and when he and the SW notified Resident #1's RP to inform her they were going to send Resident #1 out to the hospital for behavior observation, the RP stated she would just pick Resident #1 up and take her home. The Administrator stated they conducted the discharge process for Resident #1 and the RP was provided with all Resident #1's medications, but her belongings were still in the facility due to the RP stating she could not fit them in the car. During an interview on 08/28/2025 at 09:39 a.m., with Resident #1's RP she revealed that she had received a phone call on 08/21/2025 from the facility SW who stated she had to pick up Resident #1 from the facility immediately because Resident #1 could no longer stay at the facility due to an unwitnessed incident that happened and she was being discharge immediately. The RP told the SW that she had nowhere to take Resident #1 and asked if she could get Resident #1 sent to another facility, because Resident #1 gave up her apartment when she admitted to the facility and would be homeless. She stated the SW insisted the RP pick up Resident #1. The RP stated when she arrived at the facility, they gave her some papers as she put Resident #1 in the car. The RP stated she would never have picked up Resident #1 voluntarily because the RP could not care for Resident #1 properly as Resident #1 required round-the-clock care and the RP stated she worked two part-time jobs. RP revealed Resident #1 never went to her home the RP took her to another family members home until she was able to obtain an order of protective custody and police arrested Resident #1 and took her to a psychiatric hospital. During an interview with the SW on 8/28/2025 at 12:45 p.m., the SW stated Resident #1 discharged on 8/21/2025. The SW stated she informed Resident #1's RP that she could refer Resident #1 to another facility, but Resident #1's RP declined and picked up Resident #1 and took Resident #1 home. The SW stated it was a safe discharge because she had attempted to offer to find placement for Resident #1, but it was declined verbally, and Resident #1 went home with a family member who was provided with referrals for community resources, a walker, and medications. In an interview on 8/28/2025 at 217 pm, with the Administrator revealed Resident #1's RP came and picked up Resident #1 that it was a safe discharge as the RP was responsible for making decisions for Resident #1 care. The Administrator stated if the RP could not take care of Resident #1 the RP would have elected someone who could. The Administrator stated that if the RP couldn't find Resident #1 placement at another facility, he would have to consult with his superiors on Resident #1's return to the facility as days had passed so Resident #1 would have to go through the referral process and start the admission process again.

F 0627 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few representative, aware that the local ombudsman is available to provide information and assist with and traditions from the nursing home. For residents who have been in the facility for a longer time, it is still important to inquire, as needed, whether the resident would like to talk with LCA experts about returning to the community. If the resident is unable to communicate their preference or is unable to participate in discharge planning, the information should be obtained from the resident's representative. Discharge planning must include procedures for: -Documentation of referrals to local contact agencies, the local ombudsman, or other appropriate entities made for this purpose. -Documentation of the response to referrals; and -For residents for whom discharge to the community has been determined to not be feasible, the medical record must contain information about who made that decision and rational for that decision. Discharge planning must identify the discharge destination, and ensure it meets the resident's health and safety needs, as well as preferences. If a resident wishes to be discharged to a setting that does not appear to meet his or her post-discharge needs, or appears unsafe, the facility must treat this situation similarly to refusal of care, and must: -Discuss with the resident, (and/or his or her representative, if applicable) and document the implications and/or risks of being discharged to a location that is not equipped to meet his/her needs and attempt to ascertain why the resident is choosing that location; -Document that other, more suitable, options of locations that are equipped to meet the needs of the resident were presented and discussed; -Document that despite being offered other options that could meet the resident's needs, the resident refused those other more appropriate settings; -Determine if a referral to Adult Protective Services or other state entity charged with investigating abuse and neglect is necessary. The referral should be made at the time of discharge. An Immediate Jeopardy was identified on 9/16/25 and the Administrator was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 9/16/25 at 6:28 p.m. and was given a copy of the IJ template and a Plan of Removal (POR) was requested.
