F919J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on review of facility policy, facility documents, staff and resident interviews it was determined that the facility failed to provide a fully functioning call bell system for one resident resulting in an immediate jeopardy situation for one of three residents (Resident R1). Findings include: Review of facility policy Answering the Call Light dated 1/2/26, indicated: The purpose of this procedure is to ensure timely responses to the residents requests and needs. General Guidelines - Be sure that the call light is plugged in and functioning at all times. Some residents may not be able to use their call light. Be sure you check these residents frequently. Review of admission Record indicated Resident R1 was admitted on [DATE]. Review of Resident R1 MDS (minimum data set - a periodic assessment of resident needs), dated 1/24/26, indicated diagnosis of cancer( a disease of uncontrolled proliferation by transformed cells subject to evolution by natural selection), malnutrition (an imbalance between the nutrients your body needs to function and the nutrients it gets), and malignant neoplasm of larynx, unspecified ( cancer of your larynx or voice box). Section C BIMS (brief interview for mental status) indicated a summary score of 15 - cognitively intact. Review of facility documentation submitted to state agency dated 1/24/26, indicated: On 1/24/26, the resident reported that during the night shift, a nurse removed her call bell from the wall due to a technical issue but did not reconnect it afterward. The resident stated that the call bell was left on the floor and was not accessible to her. She further reported that she experienced an episode of emesis and was unable to call for assistance due to the disconnected call bell. Review of Resident R1's witness statement indicated while RN (Registered Nurse) Employee E3 was doing my feeding, the TV sound came on, and she couldn't get it to shut off. Resident asked her if she could fix it, RN Employee E3 yanked it out of the wall, left it out and stated no, I'm not a mechanic. RN Employee E3 left it like that. Review of facility documentation witness statement dated 1/26/26, RN Employee E3 indicated upon entering the resident's room while providing nursing care, resident indicated wanting the TV turned off. The monitor was off but not the sound from the remote. All procedures to cut the TV speaker off were unsuccessful. The remote was placed in the drawer, under the bedding, at the top of the bed and all were unacceptable to the resident. I apologized for the equipment failure and finished my duties. Before leaving the room, the resident wrote that if the noise was not stopped, she was going to sleep on the couch down the hall. That is what caused me to do the only thing I knew to stop the noise from the remote in her room, disconnect the remote from the wall and let it ring at the nurse's station. Review of facility documentation, witness statement dated 1/26/26, NA (Nurse Aide) Employee E2 indicated: Resident R1 put call light on I answered it she let me know that her feeding was done, and I informed RN Employee E3. I went to answer my other call lights and made sure everyone was taken care of before I went to go pump, I let the nurse know I was going to pump, and she will need to answer the call lights. When I got done pumping a couple of call lights were going off including Resident R1. RN Employee E3 told me the call light wasn't working I told her I'll take a look at it. I went in and tried to fix the light but didn't know how. Review of facility documentation witness statement undated/unsigned indicated: The call bell was going off when I came in at 2am but the room was dark and I didn't know if someone was there or not didn't see a patient at all, all night come out or the light inside the room on as if anything was wrong.

Review of facility documentation Team Corrective Action, dated 1/28/26, indicated: The call system has multiple functions, Nurse call, TV on/off, volume/channel selection, etc. On the day in question, it was not entirely functioning the unit was able to call nurses, turn tv remote off and on but the volume elements were inoperable. This nurse tried all elements available on the remote unit removing wall compartment several times in an attempt to restart/reboot the wall connection several times. Removing the cord was the only one that was effective in stopping the sound emanating from the unit which the resident was objecting to. At this point I apologized for the equipment failure, admitted that it was not functioning properly and there are no overnight maintenance personnel to fix it at this time. I disconnected the unit from the wall. Prior to this meeting today no policy and procedures were in place, no backup cords, no ding bells, no education and no contingency plan was in effect to address this equipment failure.

F323G · Actual harm, isolated

Based on review of facility documentation, review of manufacturer guidelines and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to utilize equipment and provide care to prevent accidents, resulting in actual harm to one of five residents reviewed (Resident R1). Findings include: Resident R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The quarterly Minimum Data Set assessment (MDS - periodic assessment of care needs) dated 5/9/16, indicated that Resident R1 had severely impaired cognitive skills, required extensive assistance of one person for bed mobility and extensive assistance of two for transfers. Resident R1's May 2016, care plan indicated that Resident R1 was at risk for falls and required a full body mechanical lift (assistive device used to transfer patients from bed or chair using hydraulic power) with the assistance of two people. The manufacturer guidelines for the, Liko Viking Mobile Lift (a mechanical lift) indicated to select the lift accessory (sling - used for residents with limited mobility, supports the resident during the lift) in terms of type, size, and design and to attach the accessory correctly and safely in order to prevent injuries. The manufacturer guideline for the OctoStretch sling indicated it was designed for transferring residents in a horizontal (laying down) position. The manufacturer guideline for the high back sling indicated it was designed to provide whole body support for transfers into a reclined seated posture. Review of the information dated 6/3/16, submitted by the facility indicated that Nurse Aides (NA), Employee E1 and Employee E2, were transferring Resident R1 out of bed to a seated position via a mechanical lift. Resident R1 fell backwards onto the floor and obtained a laceration (open wound) to the head. The facility investigation determined that Employees E1 and E2 utilized a sling that is designed to transfer persons in a horizontal position (the OctoStrech sling) and not the high back sling that is to be used for whole body lifting support to a seated position. Resident R1 was transferred to the hospital on [DATE], where a three centimeter occipital (head) laceration was closed with staples (metal surgical skin closures). A follow-up X-ray which was ordered on [DATE], revealed a left hip fracture. Resident R1 was transferred to Hospice care (care that focuses on the chronically or terminally ill) on 6/9/16, with a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Resident R1 ceased to breathe on 6/10/16. During an interview on 6/22/16 at 1:00 p.m., the Nursing Home Adminstrator and the Director Nursing confirmed that the facility failed to utilize equipment properly during a transfer, resulting in actual harm to Resident R1. 28 Pa.
