Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm

interviews, observations, and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure the residents had the right to be
free from abuse, neglect, misappropriation of resident property, and exploitation, which includes but not
limited to freedom from corporal punishment, involuntary seclusion and any physical or chemical restraint
not required to treat the resident's medical symptoms for 2 (Resident #1 and Resident #2) of 10 residents
reviewed for involuntary seclusion.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to ensure CNA A did not place gloves in the Resident #1 and Resident #2 door to keep
Resident #2 from wandering outside her room on 06/21/2024.
The non-compliance was identified as past non-compliance. The noncompliance began on 06/21/2024 and
ended on 06/21/2024. The facility had corrected the non-compliance before the survey began.
This failure could place residents at risk of feeling isolated, fearful, hopelessness uncomfortable,
disrespected, decreased self-esteem, and diminished quality of life.

breathe), macular degeneration (a disease that causes central vision loss), and depression (mental illness
that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act).
Record review of Resident #1's admission MDS assessment, dated 05/13/2024, indicated a BIMS score of

would not open, and she noticed gloves shoved in the door frame above the door handle keeping the door
from opening easily. She said she heard Resident #1 on the other side of the door saying she could not
open the door that was why she pushed her call light; she was trying to get out of room to go have her
morning coffee. She told Resident #1 to stand away for door and she pushed on the door with body/hip
forcefully and the door came open. CNA B said she removed the gloves from the door frame and assisted
Resident #1 out of the room to get her morning coffee and immediately went to the DON and reported the
incident. CNA B said that Resident #1 was a little concerned when she could not get the door open, but
once the door was opened and she got her morning coffee, she seemed fine, no signs of distress. CNA B
said she returned to the room to check on Resident #2 and she remained in her bed unaware that the event
had occurred. CNA B said she called CNA A and ask her about the gloves in the door and she said she had
done that to keep Resident #2 from wandering. CNA B said she was told by CNA A that she had placed the
gloves in the door frame around 5:30 a.m., while she was providing care to another resident to prevent
Resident #1 from wandering out of her room while she was behind a closed door assisting another
resident. CNA B said she removed the gloves and opened the door around 6:30 a.m.
In an interview on 12/09/2024 at 4:51 p.m. with CNA A, she said on 06/21/2024 around 5:30 a.m. a call light
came on for Hall 700, a resident requesting to be changed. While she was in the hallway getting supplies,
she noticed Resident #2 was up wandering in the hallway, so she took Resident #2 back to her room and
placed her in bed. When she exited the resident's room, she placed gloves in the door frame to keep the
door closed so that Resident #2 could not be wandering in the hallway or possibly go outside while she was
behind a closed door changing another resident. CNA A said at the time I thought I was protecting
[Resident #2], since I was behind a closed door and could not monitor her. My coworker had left early that
morning for clinicals, so I was trying to make sure she did not leave her room and wander away while I was
occupied with another resident. I was going to go back and remove the gloves when I finished care on the
other resident, but I forgot. CNA said when she finished providing care to the other resident she went and
took the soiled trash outside to the dumpster and when she entered the facility, the oncoming staff were in
the building. CNA A said, at the time I thought I was protecting the resident, but I now understand that was
wrong and not to do that again. I was terminated because of the incident. CNA A denied using this
technique in the past to keep residents in their room.
In an interview on 12/10/2024 at 9:00 a.m. with the ADON, she said when management was notified of the
incident regarding Resident #1 and Resident #2 door, she immediately provided a head-to-toe assessment
of Resident #1 and Resident #2 with no injuries or distress observed.
In an interview on 12/10/2024 at 9:45 a.m. with the DON, he said that he was notified of the incident with
Resident #1 and Resident #2's door being hard to open because of gloves in the door frame on 06/21/2024
around 6:30 a.m. The DON said that they immediately started investigating the incident, ADON provided
head to toe assessment of both residents, started watching cameras to identify who had placed the gloves
in the door frame and interviewing involved staff. The DON said that CNA A admitted that she placed the
gloves in the door frame of Resident #1 and Resident #2's door, to keep Resident #2 in her room while she
provided care for another resident. The DON said CNA A said she thought she was protecting Resident #2
from wandering out of the room while she was behind a closed door changing another resident. The DON
said CNA A was suspended during the investigation and later terminated. The DON said the [NAME]
footage confirmed that CNA A was the staff that placed the gloves in the door frame of Resident #1 and
Resident #2's room.

getting supplies, she noticed Resident #2 was up wandering in the hallway, so she took Resident #2 back
to her room and placed her in bed. When she exited the resident's room, she placed gloves in the door
frame to keep the door closed so that Resident #2 could not be wandering in the hallway or possibly go
outside while she was behind a closed door changing another resident. CNA A said at the time I thought I
was protecting [Resident #2], since I was behind a closed door and could not monitor her. My coworker had
left early that morning for clinicals, so I was trying to make sure she did not leave her room and wander
away while I was occupied with another resident. I was going to go back and remove the gloves when I
finished care on the other resident, but I forgot. CNA said when she finished providing care to the other
resident she went and took the soiled trash outside to the dumpster and when she entered the facility, the
oncoming staff were in the building. CNA A said, at the time I thought I was protecting the resident, but I
now understand that was wrong and not to do that again. I was terminated because of the incident. CNA A
denied using this technique in the past to keep residents in their room.
