there was no documentation that indicated the resident's representative was notified of the resident's
wandering behaviors or that the resident had gone missing.
During an interview on 5/28/25 at 1:29 p.m., the ADON stated he was notified by RN F Resident #1 was
missing and the ADON in turn notified the Administrator on 5/10/25. The ADON stated since the resident
was treated by hospice, the hospice staff would have been notified. The ADON stated at the time of the
event the Administrator was already in the building and believed the Administrator made notification to the
RN Corporate Nurse.
During an interview on 5/28/25 at 1:49 p.m., the Administrator stated she had received notification from the
ADON on 5/10/25 about Resident #1 missing from the facility. The Administrator stated she was about 4 or
5 minutes away but could not remember the exact time. The Administrator stated she notified the hospice
company regarding Resident #1's exit seeking behaviors and to my understanding he (Resident #1) went
out the front door and told them (the hospice company) we were not equipped to care for Resident #1 and
the family came and picked him up. The Administrator stated, I believe I informed Resident #1's
representative that the resident was gone and stated she had inform the hospice company. The
Administrator stated she did not report the incident to the physician. The Administrator stated, when
Resident #1 went missing it was not considered a true elopement because the resident was still on campus
and was gone for no more than 4 minutes.
During an interview on 5/28/25 at 2:17 p.m., RN F stated she was informed by CNA C on 5/10/25 that
Resident #1 was missing, and RN F and the staff began to search for the resident. RN F stated, when
Resident #1 was found she assessed the resident for injuries and obtained the resident's vital signs. RN F
stated during this time the Administrator and the ADON were already in the building and then RN F stated,
once the managers (Administrator and ADON) came in, they took over and I then went back to attend to my
hall. I was pretty much told to go back to my unit. RN F further stated, she believed the hospice company
was notified regarding Resident #1 missing and believed the ADON was going to notify the doctor and the
representative. RN F stated, basically, I was told I was a floor nurse and to attend to my patients by the
Administrator, and the ADON and she (the Administrator) would take care of the rest.
During a telephone interview on 5/28/25 at 5:33 p.m., Resident #1's family representative stated she
received notification on 5/10/25 about Resident #1 trying to leave the facility. Resident #1's family
representative stated, I believe I was told about him (Resident #1) trying to leave the building. It was not the
facility; it was the hospice company that called or texted me and told me he (Resident #1) tried to leave the
building.
During an interview on 5/29/25 at 11:32 a.m., LVN H stated in the case of a missing resident/elopement,
there was supposed to be notification to the Administrator, DON, ADON, the physician and family
representative. LVN H further stated, even if a resident was in the facility under hospice services, the
resident was cared for by facility staff daily and the hospice staff was not always in the facility.
During a follow-up interview on 5/29/25 at 2:31 p.m., the ADON stated, Resident #1's hospice staff was
notified on 5/10/25 when the resident was reported missing. The ADON further stated he did not know if the
resident's representative or the physician were notified. The ADON stated, the Administrator took over
doing the notification part.
During a follow-up interview on 5/29/25 at 3:26 p.m., the Administrator stated she had notified the

contact Resident #1's representative directly. The Administrator stated, typically she would notify the family
in any case, but since hospice was notified, hospice did it for them. The Administrator stated, we should
have notified the doctor, but did not. The Administrator stated, the resident's representative, the doctor, and
hospice should have been notified by the facility, but the event created chaos and at that moment, and

During an interview on 5/30/25 at 9:31 a.m., the MDS Coordinator stated the baseline care plan would be
completed within 72 hours but should start on admission. The MDS Coordinator stated the baseline care
plan was supposed to have a minimized assessment of the resident's basic needs such as mobility status,
incontinence, skin issues, and all of your assessments. The MDS Coordinator stated Resident #1's baseline
care plan was incomplete and should have been generated at the time of his admission. The MDS
Coordinator stated, the assessment did not give a whole picture of Resident #1, and that did not help when
trying to develop a comprehensive care plan and the MDS assessment.
During an interview on 5/30/25 at 9:59 a.m., RN P stated she had initiated the admission assessment for
Resident #1 when he admitted on [DATE]. RN P stated the admission assessment did not automatically
generate a baseline care plan. RN P stated she did not know anything about a baseline care plan and
stated the MDS Coordinator does those. RN P stated she was not involved in the process in the
development of a comprehensive care plan, we just do the documentation.
During an interview on 5/30/25 at 12:54 p.m., the ADON stated he was unsure of when a baseline care
plan needed to be developed or the time frame for completion. The ADON stated the care plan was
important because it identified behaviors, how to assist them (residents) with care, and how to attend to
their needs.
During an interview on 5/30/25 at 3:07 p.m., the RN Corporate Nurse stated the admission assessment
done during a resident's admission into the facility would trigger, sometimes depending on how the
questions were answered by the nurse. The RN Corporate Nurse stated, as an example, if a box was
checked on the admission assessment for a resident who utilized an indwelling urinary catheter, the
assessment would trigger and generate suggestions at the end of the assessment and would push it to the
care plan. The RN Corporate Nurse stated, she believed the baseline care plan, per regulation, had to be
completed within 48 hours and the information from the moment you meet the resident, your assessment is
for building the care plan. The RN Corporate Nurse stated the care plan was used to assist the staff in
knowing how to care for a resident.

Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals
were stored in accordance with currently accepted professional principles for 1 of 2 nurse medication carts
(Unit 1 medication cart)reviewed for storage of drugs and biologicals.
The facility failed to ensure the Unit 1 medication cart was locked and secured when Medication Aide U left
a medication cart unlocked and unsecured on 5/29/2025.
This failure could place residents at risk of medication misuse or drug diversion.
The findings included:
Observation and interview on 5/29/25 at 12:56 p.m. revealed the Station 1 medication cart was left
unlocked and unattended in front of the Station 1 nurse's station, facing out into the main pathway where 6
residents were observed sitting in wheelchairs in front of the medication cart. Further observation revealed
LVN AA was sitting behind the Station 1 nurse's station. LVN AA stated the medication cart was assigned to
Medication Aide U. The Administrator walked up to LVN AA and the State Surveyor and stated the
medication cart in Station 1 was assigned to Medication Aide U.
During an observation and interview on 5/29/25 at 12:58 p.m., Medication Aide U stated the Station 1
medication cart assigned to her was unlocked and unattended and believed she had locked the medication
cart, but the lock must have popped open. Medication Aide U stated the medication cart was not supposed
to be left unlocked and unattended because residents can get into it, or other people can get into it and
take things. Medication Aide U further stated, only facility staff should have access to the medication cart
and only she would have access to the cart since she had the key.
During an interview on 5/29/25 at 2:31 p.m., the ADON stated, the medication carts were supposed to be
locked when left unattended because somebody can have access to the medications, including the
residents. The ADON further stated, residents could take the wrong medication and could overdose.
During an interview on 5/30/25 at 3:07 p.m., the RN Corporate Nurse stated, the medication carts were
supposed to remain locked and if unlocked and unattended somebody could open a medication, they could
take a medication and they could become ill from it. The RN Corporate Nurse stated it was her expectation
that all medication carts were secure when not in use.
Record review of the facility document titled Security of Medication Cart with review date December 2024
revealed in part, .Medication carts must be securely locked at all times when out of the nurse's view .When
the medication cart is not being used, it must be locked and parked at the nurse's station or inside the
medication room .
