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 observations, interviews, 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 and assistance devices to prevent accidents for 1 of 1 resident (Resident #28) reviewed for accidents and supervision. The facility failed to ensure CNA-E and CNA-F locked the Resident wheelchair during the Hoyer transfer of Resident #28. This failure could place residents at risk of injuries. Findings included: Review of Resident # 28's face sheet dated 07/16/2024 revealed an [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE]. Review of Resident #28's diagnosis revealed: hypertension (high blood pressure), disorder of muscle, degenerative disease of the nervous system, muscle wasting, and atrophy.

Goal-Resident will be transferred with use of Hoyer lift. Approach-Use Hoyer lift for transferring. During an observation on 06/12/2024 at 10:15 AM, CNA-E and CNA-F did not lock the wheelchair while Resident #28 was being transferred from her bed to her wheelchair during a Hoyer Lift transfer. During an interview on 07/15/2024 at 2:45 PM, CNA-F stated they were not taught to lock the brakes on the Hoyer or the wheelchair during a transfer, although she was trained. She stated she did not know what the policy revealed. During an interview on 07/15/2024 at 3:30 PM the DON stated the Hoyer lift was not supposed to be locked during a transfer of residents, but the wheelchair was. She stated the DON monitored. The DON stated the failure was that some policies were confusing on when to lock the Hoyer lift and/or wheelchair. She stated the negative impact in not locking the wheelchair during a transfer was the possibility of injury to residents. She stated her expectations were that they would review the facility transfer policy, re-educate, and make sure it did not happen again. Review of facility Hoyer lift manual, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/2889017/Invacare-Reliant-450.html?page=13#manual on 07/15/2024 revealed; Invacare does not recommend locking the rear casters of the patient lift when lifting an individual. Wheelchair wheel locks MUST be in a locked position before lowering the patient into the wheelchair for transport.

The ADMN stated he did not think there had been a negative affect to residents because staff had access to an RN and the DON. The ADMN stated the DON was responsible to create the schedule and he assisted in monitoring. The ADMN stated what led to the failure of not having 8-hour RN coverage was a shortage of RN 's in the area, and not being able to cover when staff called in and the DON was out for surgery. The ADMN stated between sister facilities staff always had the resource of contacting a RN. The ADMN did not think they had a policy for RN coverage, they followed the federal guidelines.

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs. Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were stored in permanently affixed compartments during medication storage inspection for 1 (cart #1) of 4 medication carts reviewed for storage. The facility failed to ensure medication cart #1 was locked and secured while unattended. This failure could result in a drug diversion. Findings included: During an observation on 07/14/2024 at 8:38 PM, there was an unlocked medication cart on the south hallway of facility with LVN-B out of line of site. The unlocked cart contained all prescription and Over the Counter medications that included, but not limited to eye meds, stool softeners, antipsychotics, insulins, blood pressure medications, and narcotics. During an interview on 07/14/2024 at 8:40 PM LVN-B stated, she was in charge of the medication cart. She stated she was passing medications to a resident and the cart should have been locked at all times when out of sight. She stated there were 19 resident medications stored in this medication cart. LVN-B stated the residents had the potential to obtain medications that were not theirs and possibly cause an allergic reaction. During an interview on 07/14/2024 at 8:49 PM the DON stated residents had the potential to obtain medications that were unsafe for them and cause possible harm such as an overdose or an allergic reaction if the medication cart were left unlocked. She stated the charge nurses, and the Nursing Department heads were to monitor the medication carts. She stated she was unsure where the failure was as this nurse was the charge nurse at this time. The DON stated her expectations were for the medication carts to be locked at all times when not in use or out of sight. Review of facility policy Security of Medication Cart dated April 2007 revealed: Policy Statement- The medication cart shall be secured during medication passes. Policy Interpretation and Implementation; 1. The nurse must secure the medication cart during the medication pass to prevent unauthorized entry. 2.

The DON stated there should have been an order for weekly skin assessments written at admission. The DON stated what led to failure was that the admission nurse did not follow the facility's admission Checklist and she thought she must have used the orders from the previous facility.

The DON stated the failure occurred with the CNA's rushing and hurrying to get their duties finished, that led to forgetting what was needed to finish the task properly. She stated her expectations were to have staff reeducated with infection control and the proper way of transporting linens and dirty briefs when it came to leaving resident rooms. The DON stated if linens were clean or dirty, they were to be bagged in and bagged out.
