Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure one of four sampled
residents (Resident 1) was free from the physical restraints. * CNA 1 wrapped a bed sheet around Resident
1's waist and tied it behind the resident's wheelchair, preventing Resident 1 from easily removing the
material. This failure posed the risk of restricting the resident's freedom of movement and further
compromising the resident's independence and psychosocial well-being. Findings: Review of the facility's
P&P titled Use of Restraint dated 2024 showed the restraints shall only be used for the safety and
well-being of the resident (s) and only after other alternatives have been tried unsuccessfully. Restraint shall
only be used to treat the resident's medical symptom(s) and never for discipline or staff convenience, or for
the prevention of falls. The definition of restraint is based on the functional status of the resident and not the
device. If the resident cannot remove a device in the same manner in which the staff applied it given the
resident's physical condition, and this restricts his/her typical ability to change position or place, that device
is considered a restraint. The P&P showed practices that inappropriately utilize equipment to prevent
resident mobility are considered restraints and are not permitted, including:- tucking sheet so tightly that a
bed-bound resident cannot move; and,- placing the resident in a chair that prevents resident from rising.
Further review of the P&P showed the restraints shall only be used upon the written order of a physician
and after obtaining consent from the resident and/or representative. On 9/28/25, the CDPH, L&C Program
received a report from the facility. The report showed Resident Representative 1 found Resident 1 with a
sheet of linen wrapped around him and tied at the back of the wheelchair. Medical record review for
Resident 1 was initiated on 10/8/25. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident
1's H&P examination dated 9/19/25, showed Resident 1 had the capacity to understand and make
decisions. Review of Resident 1's MDS assessment dated [DATE], showed Resident 1 had moderate
cognitive impairment. Review of Resident 1's SBAR dated 9/28/25, showed at 0700 hours, Resident
Representative 1 found Resident 1 with a bedsheet around his waist tied at the back of the wheelchair.
Resident 1 was in the dining room with CNA 1 beside him charting. The SBAR further showed Resident 1
was assessed with no visible injury at the time; however, a full skin assessment on 9/28/25 at 1000 hours,
showed discoloration was observed on Resident 1's bilateral legs and arms. Further review of the SBAR
showed the alleged staff was suspended while pending further investigation. Review of Resident 1's
medical record failed to documented evidence of a physician's order or any documentation of a medical
necessity for the use physical restraints. On 10/8/25 at 1231 hours, an interview was conducted with
Resident 1 in his room with translation from Resident Representative 2 at the bedside. Resident 1 stated
the staff in the facility tied him in the wheelchair and he could not move freely. Resident 1 stated he did not
remember the date and time or how long he was tied by the bed sheet in the wheelchair. Resident 1 stated
he was scared and called his son. On 10/8/25 at 1328 hours, a

resident working on the computer. Resident Representative 1 stated he asked CNA 1 to untie Resident 1
and reported the incident to a charge nurse. On 10/9/25 at 1001 hours, a telephone interview was
conducted with CNA 1. CNA 1 stated on around 9/28/25, during the night shift, Resident 1 frequently got
out of his bed without asking for staff assistance. CNA 1 stated Resident 1 had risk of falling and the CNA
also had to take care of other residents. CNA 1 stated he decided to put Resident 1 on the wheelchair on
9/28/25, at around 0500 hours. CNA 1 further stated for Resident 1's safety, he put the bed sheet around
Resident 1's waist and loosely tied it to the wheelchair so he could not stand on his own. CNA 1 further
stated he should not have tied Resident 1 to the wheelchair, and he should have reported the resident's
condition of getting out of bed to the charge nurse assigned to the resident. On 10/9/25 at 1202 hours, a
telephone interview was conducted with LVN 1. LVN 1 stated on around 9/28/25 at 0630 hours, she was
looking for CNA 1 and saw them in the dining room documenting on the computer with Resident 1. LVN 1
stated she saw the resident sitting in the wheelchair which was wrapped around with the bed sheet. LVN 1
stated bed sheet was covering the wheelchair; however, she did not see if it was tied with the knot from
where she was standing. LVN 1 stated then she reported the incident to the charge nurse assigned to
Resident 1, which happened to be the same time Resident Representative 1 had reported to the charge
nurse. LVN 1 stated she did not check if the resident was tied to the wheelchair with a bedsheet. LVN 1
stated she should have checked to make sure Resident 1 was not tied with the bed sheet to the wheelchair.
On 10/9/25 at 1414 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON was informed and
acknowledged the above findings.

interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to
thoroughly investigate an allegation of abuse for one of four sampled residents (Resident 1). * The facility

showed based on clinical record review, interview and thorough assessment, there were no witnesses who
were able to validate the allegation. Further review of the report showed the facility took the following steps

involving Resident 1 and CNA 1. The DON explained Resident 1 was hard of hearing and did not speak
English. The DON stated she waited for the evening staff who spoke the resident's language, to assist with
the interview and then interviewed the resident. However, the DON was unable to provide documentation
confirming an interview was conducted with the resident. The DON stated she spoke to Resident
Representative 1 in detail and Resident Representative 1 also provided a written the statement regarding
the incident and allegation made by Resident 1. The DON acknowledged the alleged victim interview was
crucial in an abuse investigation to determine the extent of the alleged abuse. The DON stated the facility

stated CNA 1 was terminated, and she could have conducted a telephone interview. The DON
acknowledged a written statement was not equivalent to an interview. On 10/9/25 at 1414 hours, the DON

Changes- Clinical Protocol dated 12/2024 showed the physician will help identify individuals with a
significant risk for having acute changes of condition during their stay. The nursing staff will contact the
physician based on the urgency of the situation. For emergencies they will call or page the physician and
request prompt response (within approximately one-half hour or less). The attending physician (or a
