F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 supervision to prevent accidents for one resident (Resident 1) when: 1. Resident 1 eloped from the facility and was found face down on the pavement; and, 2. The Wander Monitoring System (WMS, an alarm system compromised of a monitor placed on the resident and placed on facility exits used to prevent residents from wandering or seeking to leave the facility) ordered by the physician to be implemented for Resident 1 was not functional. These failures resulted in Resident 1 ' s obtaining trauma to the right eyebrow and a laceration which required stiches and decreased the facility ' s potential to ensure the safety of residents at risk of elopement to leave the facility undetected placing the resident at risk for injury or harm. Findings: 1. Review of Resident 1 ' s clinical record showed Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with a diagnosis which included Traumatic Subdural Hemorrhage (a collection of blood between the brain and skull caused by a head injury) and unspecified dementia (the loss of thinking, remembering, and reasoning to such an extent that it interferes with a person's daily life and activities). Review of Resident 1 ' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment tool), dated 12/26/24, indicated a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 6 which meant Resident had severe cognitive impairment. A review of a care plan regarding Resident 1 ' s high risk for falls related to dementia, impulsiveness, wandering, and poor safety awareness, initiated on 6/19/24, indicated, [Resident 1 ' s goal was to] not sustain .injury through the review date [of 3/1/25] .[Interventions staff were to implement to assist Resident 1 to meet her goal included] Encourage and assist [Resident 1] with remaining in common, supervised areas when awake [Initiated 1/10/25] .Provide resident a safe environment [Initiated 10/15/24] . A review of a care plan regarding Resident 1 ' s potential for impaired behavioral patterns, initiated on 10/25/24, indicated, [Resident 1 ' s goal was to] have no injury related to impaired behavioral pattern through review date [of 3/1/25] .[Interventions staff were to implement to assist Resident 1 to meet her goal included] Monitor/Record occurrence of targeted behavior [which included] Exit Seeking .

During an interview on 1/17/25 at 1:20 p.m., the Infection Preventionist (IP) confirmed Resident 1 was wearing a WMS and the system was not fully functioning. The IP stated there was only one alarm for the entire facility which was located the front door. The IP also stated the two additional doors residents could exit from did not have alarms. The IP stated the maintenance department checked the alarm located at the exit, and nursing staff checked the monitor on the resident to ensure both components of the WMS worked. The IP stated the facility did not have a policy and procedure for maintenance testing of the WMS nor did the facility have the manufactures instructions for use. During an observation and concurrent interview on 1/17/25 at 4 p.m., Unlicensed Staff A stated this was her first evening taking care of Resident 1 and she was unaware Resident 1 had a WMS device. Unlicensed Staff A then lifted the resident ' s pant leg and observed a WMS device to Resident 1 ' s left ankle. During an interview on 1/17/25 at 4:15 p.m., Licensed Staff B stated she had just come on shift and was unaware Resident 1 was wearing a WMS device. Licensed Staff B stated the nurses test the alarm by taking the resident to the front door and maintenance monitored the function of the WMS system.

Based on interview, and facility record review, the facility failed to have a Registered Nurse (RN) performing the function of the Director of Nursing (DON) on a full-time basis to provide oversight and guidance on the provision of care provided by nursing staff. This failure prevented the facility from having the required management, to adequately assess and meet the needs of residents in a timely manner and had the potential to negatively impact the quality of care delivered by licensed and non-licensed nursing staff to residents. Findings: During an interview on 1/17/25 at 12:35 p.m., Licensed Staff A stated there was no DON at the facility and there has not been a DON since November.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure patient care equipment was functioning and maintained under sanitary conditions when oxygen therapy equipment provided to facility residents was dirty and not maintained. Residents Affected - Few This failure decreased the facility ' s potential to prevent infections among respiratory compromised residents who used oxygen concentrators for medical treatments. Findings: During an interview on 1/21/25 at 1:48 p.m., the Maintenance Supervisor (MS) stated he checked the oxygen storage room periodically to ensure the oxygen tanks were secure. The MS also stated he did not have oversight nor did any maintenance on the oxygen concentrators and was unsure who maintained the oxygen concentrators. During an observation and current interview on 1/21/25 at 2:00 p.m., the Infection Preventionist (IP) stated she tracked all residents on respiratory therapy and any respiratory infections that occurred in the facility. The IP stated there were currently six residents on oxygen therapy who used oxygen concentrators provided by the facility. An observation of the oxygen storage room and concurrent interview on 1/21/25 at 2:15 p.m., showed multiple oxygen tanks were not secured or in a rack (unsecured oxygen tanks can be dangerous and cause serious injury or death by tipping over and shear the valve or a pressurized cylinder to explode from a mechanical failure). Three oxygen concentrators were observed to have dust covering the top and front of the oxygen concentrators. The sides of one concentrator had filters that were full of lint and debris. On one oxygen concentrator the last date of maintenance service performed was 3/25/20. The IP verified the concentrators were dirty and stated she did not know who was responsible for cleaning and maintaining the concentrators. IP stated she was in the process of establishing a clean and dirty location for the oxygen concentrators. During a continued interview on 1/21/25 at 2:30 p.m., the IP verified there was no maintenance contract for service of the oxygen concentrators.
