F689J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on review of facility policy, facility documents, clinical record review, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure proper supervision for a resident (Resident R1) resulting in an elopement (resident exits to an unsupervised and unauthorized location without staff's knowledge) from the facility. This failure created an immediate jeopardy situation (IJ) for all residents identified as an elopement risk.Findings include: Review of facility policy Elopement Unauthorized Absence dated 5/4/26, indicated the facility will identify residents with potential and/or actual risk factors for elopement and protect the resident through development and implementation of safety interventions. In the event of a resident elopement the facility will implement its policies and procedures to locate the resident in a timely manner. All residents will be assessed for the risk of elopement using the Elopement Observation on admission, quarterly, and as needed. Residents identified at risk will have interventions promptly implemented to reduce the risk of elopement. The resident's physician will be notified of risk and recommend interventions. The resident's responsible party will be informed of potential risk and interventions being implemented to provide for the resident's safety. Residents identified at risk will have their picture and face sheet or the demographic form placed in a binder that is kept in an area accessible by staff. Upon determining that a resident cannot be located a headcount will be conducted. If resident is still missing Code [NAME] using the resident name, room number, and unit name will be announced. Announce three times. Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease (a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions), dementia (a group of symptoms that affects memory, thinking and interferes with daily life), and hyperlipidemia (high levels of fats in the blood). Review of Resident R1's NSG - Admission/readmission Observation 3 assessment dated [DATE], stated, His caretaker brought him and told him they were just going to visit a friend. He knows the truth now and is very upset. Further review of Resident R1's NSG - Admission/readmission Observation 3 assessment dated [DATE], indicated an Elopement Observation was completed, which consisted of the following questions and documented answers: Is resident ambulatory or independent in wheelchair locomotion?YesDoes the resident have any of the following risk factors?New admission who has made statements questioning the need to be here - yesIs there been known history of attempted or actual elopement or unsafe wandering - noNot accepting present residency situation/location - noResident wanders without a sense of purpose - noDoes the resident have a history of substance abuse History (SUD) that may result in leaving the building - noResident exhibits exit seeking behaviors - noResident verbalizes, wanting to go home, going on a trip, going to meet someone - yesResident wanders in and out of other resident rooms and/or rummages in other's belongings - noCurrent acute change in cognition/confusion - noNone of the above criteria are currently exhibited - noPotential elopement risk identified, requires further review immediate intervention(s) implemented to address the identified risk factor(s) fillable sectionYesNo identified risk(s) for elopementNoImmediate intervention(s)On the 3rd floor due to more controlled environment.

Review of a progress note dated 5/10/26, stated, Resident R1 experienced an elopement event on 05/10/2026. Resident R1 was admitted on [DATE] for a 5-day respite stay (a short-term stay in a care facility that provides temporary professional care for a loved one while giving the primary caregiver a break) under the services of hospice with no known prior history of elopement behaviors. At approximately 12:20 PM, staff identified that the resident could not be located after last being observed at the third-floor nursing station at approximately 12:00 PM. The RN (Registered Nurse) Supervisor was notified immediately, an Elopement Code was initiated, and staff conducted a search of the center and surrounding grounds. After the resident could not be located, the Administrator and local police department were notified at approximately 12:44 PM. The resident was later found safely seated on the porch of a residence located at [0.5 miles away from the facility] and was retrieved without incident by the Director of Nursing Services (DON) and Maintenance Director. Upon return to the facility, at 1:31PM a full head-to-toe assessment identified no injuries or acute concerns. Emotional support was provided without signs or symptoms of distress observed or voiced. Family and physician were notified of the event. Immediate corrective actions included reassessment of the resident's elopement risk status, implementation of a WanderGuard (a wearable electronic monitoring device) device, and updating of the resident's care plan to reflect increased supervision and interventions related to elopement prevention.

Review of a staff witness statement dated 5/10/26, completed by NA Employee E9 stated, I was charting in the hall waiting for lunch when an aide got off the elevator and she asked if we saw him. At that time she gave me his description while heading out the main door. I walked about 4 blocks down, looking down the alleys, streets, between houses and cars. I walked back a different way doing the same but wanted to get back to touch base. Review of a staff witness statement dated 5/10/26, completed by Maintenance Director Employee E10 stated, I along with the DON went to pick up Resident R1 at [a residence located 0.5 miles away from the facility] where his daughter told her he was.

During visitor/family movement through the Memory Care Unit elevator area, the resident was able to follow through the elevator access point unnoticed, resulting in unauthorized exit from the Memory Care Unit. Review of facility-provided documents revealed a Plan of Correction dated 5/11/26. The document indicated employees were re-educated regarding elopement prevention, visitor management, and Code [NAME] procedures. Reinforcement was provided that door codes of the center and Memory Impaired Unit are confidential and intended for employee use only. Elopement prevention and visitor management practices were incorporated into ongoing employee education and orientation. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 11:42 a.m. LPN Employee E2 and LPN Employee E3 stated, Usually the RN Supervisor does the elopement assessments, we haven't done one in a while. Supervisors do the new admission assessments for all shifts. I'm not sure what the elopement assessment score is. I don't remember the score being address in the elopement education. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 11:48 a.m. Receptionist Employee E11 stated, We have an elopement binder at the front desk. It gets updated when there is a new admission identified as an elopement risk. The supervisor will let us know when it's updated. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 11:56 a.m. RN Employee E4 stated, I don't know what the score means on the elopement evaluations. The supervisor is usually who completes the assessments. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 12:00 p.m. LPN Employee E6 stated, I've never done one of the elopement assessments. Initial assessments for new admissions are done by the supervisor. Usually the supervisor does the quarterly assessments. I'm not sure what the elopement score means. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 12:01 p.m. RN Manger Employee E5 stated, During day shift, usually the unit manager or supervisor will complete the assessments. On the 3 p.m. - 11 p.m. shift there is only one supervisor and the majority of the admissions come on 3-11 so the other staff members will pick up tasks like vitals, height, weight, belongings, medication orders. Usually it's one person doing the assessment, but all nurses are able to complete the assessments. Everyone works together to get it done. Every resident is a bit different, the elopement assessment questions asks if residents are stating they don't want to be here, is there a history of wandering, are they ambulatory. You can pretty much tell who is going to be a risk and who isn't. I'm not sure what the magic score number is, I think it might be 5. During an interview on 5/19/26, at 12:48 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) and DON stated, There is no hard score for the elopement assessment, per the policy. It doesn't state that if you score X, you are automatically an elopement risk. Anyone can do the assessments, it's not just the supervisor completing the assessments. During an interview on 5/20/26, at 9:03 a.m. the NHA stated all staff members received education on elopement prevention, visitor management, and Code [NAME] procedures.
