Based on interview and record review, the
facility's staff failed to ensure they readmitted
one of one sampled residents (Resident A)
following a therapeutic transfer to a general
acute hospital (GACH). Resident A was
transferred to a GACH for evaluation related to
aggressive behavior. Resident A was cleared
to come back to the facility, however, on arrival
she was locked outside for 20-30 minutes and
not permitted to enter the facility until the police
arrived and authorization was given by the
Director of Nursing (DON).
This deficient practice resulted in Resident A
being locked out of the facility (her home) for
up to 30 minutes and feeling that no one at the
facility liked her and they were trying to get rid
of her and had the potential to cause the
resident harm.
Findings:
A review of Resident A's Admission Records
indicated the resident was initially admitted to
the facility on 1/29/15, and last readmitted to
the facility on 2/22/19. Resident A's diagnoses
included major depressive disorder and bipolar
disorder (a mental illness characterized by
periods of elevated mood and periods of
depression).
A review of Resident A's Minimum Data Set
(MDS), an assessment and care-screening
tool, dated 3/5/19, indicated Resident A scored
15 out of 15 on the Brief Interview for Mental
Status ([BIMS]) indicating her cognition (the
mental action or process of acquiring
knowledge and understanding through thought,
experience, and the senses) was intact.

Continued review of the MDS indicated
Resident A had no behavioral episodes. The
MDS indicated Resident A required a limited
one-person physical assist for bed mobility,
transfers, walking in the room, corridors and
on/off the unit as well as completion of her
ADLs ([activities of daily living] the things we
normally do such as eating, bathing, dressing,
grooming and toileting) and she was able to eat
with supervision and set-up help. Resident A's
active diagnoses included anxiety disorder (a
group of mental illnesses that cause intense,
excessive and persistent worry and fear about
everyday situations), systemic lupus
erythematosus (the immune system of the body
mistakenly attacks healthy tissue; affecting the
skin, joints, kidneys, brain, and other organs)
and chronic pain syndrome.
A review of Resident A's SBAR ([Situation,
Background, Assessment, Recommendation] a
form of communication between members of a
health care team), dated 4/4/19, indicted
Resident A was to be discharged to a a general
acute care hospital (GACH) for medical
clearance due to increased aggressiveness of
slapping another resident, threatening to hit
other residents, increased confabulatory
behavior, cursing others and danger to others.
A review of a Physician's Order, dated 4/4/19,
indicated to discharge Resident A to a GACH
emergency room for medical clearance due to
increased aggressiveness of slapping another
resident with a bed-hold for seven days.
A review of a GACHs emergency room (ER)

indicated Resident A indicated no confusion, no
anxiety, no depression, no hallucinations, no
mood problems or aggressive behavior.
Continued review of the note indicated
Resident A refused to go to a psychiatric facility
and would be sent back to skilled nursing
facility (SNF).
A review of the GACH's ER Nursing Narrative
Note, dated 4/4/19, at 11:31 p.m., indicated
Resident A was calm and cooperative, only
refusing x-rays and transfer to another GACH
for psychiatric evaluation and wanted to be
discharged back to the SNF. The note
indicated the SNF was called and made aware
that Resident A would be going back to the
facility.
On 4/9/19 at 3:50 p.m., during an interview,
Resident A stated on 4/4/19, she got into a
physical altercation with another resident.
Resident A stated that staff called the EMTs
(emergency medical technicians) to send her to
the GACH to be evaluated. Resident A stated
they told her if she was cleared mentally she
could come back. Resident A stated initially
she refused to leave but later consented to be
transferred. Resident A stated she was cleared
by the GACH and sent her back to the facility
before 1 a.m., however, the doors were locked
and two nurses refused to let her in. Resident
A stated the driver who brought her to the
facility told them he was from the GACH and
returning her to the SNF. The two nurses told
the driver they could not let Resident A in
because she was dangerous. The driver told
them that Resident A had been cleared by the
GACH and was bringing her back, but they still
refused to let her in and the driver had to call
the police. Resident A stated the police came

On 4/12/19 at 11:24 a.m., during a telephone
interview, Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2)
stated Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RN 1),
who worked on the 3 p.m. - 11 p.m., shift,
reported to her that Resident A had been
transferred to a GACH because of her behavior
and was to be seen by a psychiatrist. RN 1
instructed her not to let Resident A in if she
came back. LVN 2 stated they received a call
from the GACH telling them Resident A was on
her way back and LVN 1 showed her a text
message with instructions from the Assistant
Director Of Nursing (ADON) not to let Resident
A in the facility. LVN 2 stated she called the
Director of Nursing (DON) for clarification, and
the DON instructed her to call the ADON. LVN
2 stated she called the ADON who told her not
to let Resident A in. LVN 2 stated Resident A
arrived at the facility and came to the door with
the driver, and LVN 2 told the driver and the
resident that she had been instructed not to let
her in. The driver called the police and they
arrived and come inside to talk to her. LVN 2
stated she called the DON again who this time
instructed her to let Resident A in. LVN 2
stated this all happened at approximately 1
a.m., it was cold outside and Resident A was
outside for approximately 20-30 minutes before
they let her in. LVN 2 stated Resident A was
understandably angry and she (LVN 2) felt bad
because it was wrong not to let her in but she
was caught between the resident and
instructions from RN 1 and the ADON not to let
her in.
On 4/12/19 at 11:58 a.m., during a telephone
interview, the ADON initially stated that he did

Resident A. The ADON stated the resident
needed to be cleared by a psychiatric doctor
but if Resident A was on a bed-hold and if she
showed up they have to let her in. When the
ADON was asked about a text message he
sent to LVN 1 with instructions not to let
Resident A in, the ADON acknowledged that
yes it did exist. The ADON stated there were
several text messages going back and forth
between him and LVN 1 but interpreted (it was
written in Tagalong) a portion of what was text
to say to LVN 1 that Resident A arrived by
private transportation, do not admit her until
she is cleared by the other GACH (a psychiatric
facility).
On 4/12/19 at 12:28 p.m., during a telephone
interview, the DON stated she was not aware
of police being called and when she was called
she instructed the LVN's 1 and 2 to let
Resident A in. The DON stated they thought
Resident A would be evaluated by a
psychiatrist but was not. The DON stated she
was aware of the bed-hold policy and that
Resident A had a right to come back after
being cleared by the GACH.
On 4/12/19 at 3:15 p.m., during an interview,
RN 1 stated Resident A was still at the facility
when she started her shift (4/4/19) and believes
she was transferred between 5 p.m., and 6
p.m. RN 1 stated she received a report from
the ADON that other residents were scared of
Resident A and not to admit her back to the
facility. RN 1 stated at the end of her shift she
reported to LVN 1 not to admit Resident A.
She stated she knew they would get in trouble
if they did not readmit the resident and
instructed the nurses if the hospital pressed
they had to admit the resident.

Findings:
A review of Resident A's Admission Records
indicated the resident was initally admitted to
the facility on 1/29/15, and last readmitted on
2/26/19. Resident A's diagnoses included
major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder
(a mental illness characterized by periods of
elevated mood and periods of depression).
A review of Resident A's Minimum Data Set
(MDS), an assessment and care-screening
tool, dated 3/5/19, indicated Resident A scored
15 out of 15 on the Brief Interview for Mental
Status ([BIMS]) indicating her cognition (the
mental action or process of acquiring
knowledge and understanding through thought,
experience, and the senses) was intact.
Continued review of the MDS indicated
Resident A had no behavioral episodes. The
MDS indicated Resident A required a limited
one-person physical assist for bed mobility,
transfers, walking in the room, corridors and
on/off the unit as well as completion of her
ADLs ([activities of daily living] the things we
normally do such as eating, bathing, dressing,
grooming and toileting) and she was able to eat
with supervision and set-up help. Resident A's
active diagnoses included anxiety disorder (A
group of mental illnesses that cause intense,
excessive and persistent worry and fear about
everyday situations), systemic lupus
erythematosus ( the immune system of the
body mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. It can
affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, and other
organs) and chronic pain syndrome.

Resident A stated on 4/4/19, she got into a
physical altercation with another resident.
Resident A stated that staff called the EMTs
(emergency medical technicians) to send her to
the GACH to be evaluated. Resident A stated
they told her if she was cleared mentally she
could come back. Resident A stated initially
she refused to leave but later consented to be
transferred. Resident A stated she was cleared
by the GACH and sent her back to the facility
before 1 a.m., however, the doors were locked
and two nurses refused to let her in. Resident
A stated the driver who brought her to the
facility told them he was from the GACH and
returning her to the SNF. The two nurses told
the driver they could not let Resident A in
because she was dangerous. The driver told
them that Resident A had been cleared by the
GACH and was bringing her back, but they still
refused to let her in and the driver had to call
the police. Resident A stated the police came
and told them they had to let her in and finally
they did.
On 4/12/19 at 11:24 a.m., during a telephone
interview, Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2)
stated Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RN 1),
who worked on the 3 p.m. - 11 p.m., shift,
reported to her that Resident A had been
transferred to a GACH because of her behavior
and was to be seen by a psychiatrist. RN 1
instructed her not to let Resident A in if she
came back. LVN 2 stated they received a call
from the GACH telling them Resident A was on
her way back and LVN 1 showed her a text
message with instructions from the Assistant
Director Of Nursing (ADON) not to let Resident
A in the facility. LVN 2 stated she called the
Director of Nursing (DON) for clarification, and
the DON instructed her to call the ADON. LVN
2 stated she called the ADON who told her not
to let Resident A in. LVN 2 stated Resident A

arrived at the facility and came to the door with
the driver, and LVN 2 told the driver and the
resident that she had been instructed not to let
her in. The driver called the police and they
arrived and come inside to talk to her. LVN 2
stated she called the DON again who this time
instructed her to let Resident A in. LVN 2
stated this all happened at approximately 1
a.m., it was cold outside and Resident A was
outside for approximately 20-30 minutes before
they let her in. LVN 2 stated Resident A was
understandably angry and she (LVN 2) felt bad
because it was wrong not to let her in but she
was caught between the resident and
instructions from RN 1 and the ADON not to let
her in.
On 4/12/19 at 11:58 a.m., during a telephone
interview, the ADON initially stated that he did
not instruct LVN 1 and LVN 2 not to accept
Resident A. The ADON stated the resident
needed to be cleared by a psychiatric doctor
but if Resident A was on a bed-hold and if she
showed up they have to let her in. When the
ADON was asked about a text message he
sent to LVN 1 with instructions not to let
Resident A in, the ADON acknowledged that
yes it did exist. The ADON stated there were
several text messages going back and forth
between him and LVN 1 but interpreted (it was
written in Tagalong) a portion of what was text
to say to LVN 1 that Resident A arrived by
private transportation, do not admit her until
she is cleared by the other GACH (a psychiatric
facility).
On 4/12/19 at 3:15 p.m., during an interview,
RN 1 stated Resident A was still at the facility
when she started her shift (4/4/19) and believes
she was transferred between 5 p.m., and 6

Resident A and not to admit her back to the
facility. RN 1 stated at the end of her shift she
reported to LVN 1 not to admit Resident A.

On 5/30/19 at 11:22 a.m., during a telephone
interview, the DON stated the standard of
practice and expectations from the nursing staff
was to document times that events occur,
document any events that occur and to
document the condition of the resident when
they are transferred.
