F867K · Immediate jeopardy, pattern

Based on the policy review, job description review, video camera footage review, medical record review, observation, and interview, the Quality Assurance Performance Improvement (QAPI) committee failed to ensure systems and processes were in place and consistently followed by staff to address quality concerns related to falls and elopement/wandering behaviors. The QAPI committee failed to ensure a safe environment, a thorough investigation of resident elopement was completed, and failed to conduct a QAPI committee meeting when residents eloped from the facility without staff knowledge. The facility failed to ensure processes and systems were in place and reviewed through the QAPI committee to ensure residents at risk for falls were assessed, adequately supervised, and had a comprehensive Care Plan with appropriate interventions that were put into place and implemented to prevent falls and wandering/exit seeking behavior. The facility failed to ensure the QAPI committee reviewed and validated systemic problems and determine a system was in place to ensure licensed nurses had the specific knowledge and skill sets necessary to assess residents, complete fall risk assessments, complete neurological checks, implement appropriate interventions, and provide care for residents with behaviors. These failures resulted in Immediate Jeopardy for Resident #1, #7, #2, #3, #6, #7, #8, #9, #11, #12, #13, #14, and #15. These failures resulted in actual Harm when Resident #1 suffered a hematoma (collection of blood between the layers of tissues) to his forehead and lacerations (cuts or tears in the skin) that required repair (stitches) and actual Harm when Resident #7 fell and suffered a sacral (large triangular bone at the bottom of the spine) fracture (broken bone) and displaced fractures of the pelvis.

F600J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on policy review, video camera footage review, medical record review, and interview, the facility failed to provide adequate supervision to prevent neglect for 1 of 10 sampled residents (Resident #1) reviewed with wandering behaviors, when staff members left a resident that had eloped unattended and alone outside for 8 minutes after staff members had found the resident which resulted in Immediate Jeopardy for Resident #1. Resident #1, a confused vulnerable resident with Dementia, left the facility through a window in an unoccupied resident room. The facility was unaware Resident #1 was missing from the facility for 9 minutes. Resident #1 was left outside unattended for an additional 8 minutes when 2 staff members (Dietary Cook #1 and Dietary Aide #1) that found him left the premises and another staff member returned inside the facility without the resident. Resident #1 was outside alone, had walked down a steep hill, across the driveway, was sitting under a pavilion, next to an integrity impaired (broken) fence with an unsecured gate, near a creek with swift moving water. Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) is a situation in which the provider's noncompliance with one or more requirements of participation has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident.
