Pt is fixated on getting out of the facility and nothing else. Also his mobility and ability to get around. The ability of this pt to live alone is questionable. Follow up in one month.

Review of documentation provided by the facility dated 5/14/26, stated the following: Resident was transported to neurology appointment 5/14/26, at 1:15 p.m. via facilities wheelchair van. CNA (certified nurse assistant) transporter and resident successfully made it to the appointment without incident. Once appointment was completed and resident was being transported back to facility, incident occurred when accelerating from a stoplight. Resident remained seated in wheelchair; however, the wheelchair had tipped backwards within van. CNA recognized issue immediately and pulled to the side of the road in a safe location. She exited the vehicle and opened the rear hatch to access the resident. She was able to successfully with the assistance of passerby lift the wheelchair and resident to an upright position. CNA reports no overt signs of substantial injury directly following incident. CNA then resecured resident with equipment after verifying the equipment was without fault. Resident and CNA report being approximately eight minutes from facility when transport was resumed following incident.

When we pulled out, all hell broke loose. I don't know what happened. The wheelchair went sideways and I flew back and hit my head on the back. I said I think I'm alright, but I guess I wasn't. People came to help, got me back into wheelchair, came back here and then sent me to hospital. I wear collar all the time. I feel like I've been rode hard and put away wet. Pain in my chest is about gone. They had seat belts on, that's what I can't figure out. Nobody can figure it out. Something malfunctioned and the driver doesn't know. They need to look into before it happens again. During an interview on 6/10/26, at 1:24 p.m. NA Employee E1 stated, I put him in, I did all the straps and the seat belt. It was a high-back wheelchair. When the light turned green, the van jerked and then I heard the straps pulling and the chair went backwards. The resident yelled. The seat belt was across the resident. I locked him in with four straps. He had leg rests on the wheelchair. You strap the wheelchair in the front of wheelchair at the bottom like where the leg rests go on and the back gets hooked to around same area. I heard the straps pulling and resident fell backwards. I got out of van and opened the back. By standards stopped and we tilt the chair back up to where it's to be. I redid everything and checked everything. I made sure he wasn't going to move. During an interview on 6/10/26, at 2:26 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) confirmed that no one was educated, trained, and no competencies were completed on the proper techniques of safely securing a resident into the van prior to Resident R1's incident. NHA stated, All I can think of is that NA Employee E1 may have secured a tie down on a leg rest instead of the wheelchair frame. During an interview on 6/10/26, at 3:30 p.m. NHA confirmed that the facility van has not been serviced after the incident to ensure the safety mechanisms work appropriately and that the van will be placed out of service until a company can service the van. During an interview on 6/10/26, at 3:45 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing confirmed that the facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from a preventable accident during a transfer in the facilities vehicle van, which resulted in actual physical harm (an abrasion to crown of head, abrasion to right knee, abrasion to left ankle, and three acute cervical (neck) fractures of C3, C4, and C5) for one of two residents (Resident R1). 28 Pa Code 201.14(a) Responsibility of licensee. 28 Pa Code 201.18(b)(1)(e)(1) Management. 28 Pa Code 201.29(a) Resident rights. 28 Pa Code 211.12(d)(1)(3)(5) Nursing services.

F689J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on review of facility policy, clinical and facility record review, facility provided documents, and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to provide adequate supervision for two residents resulting in elopement (resident exits to an unsupervised and unauthorized location without staff's knowledge). This failure created an immediate jeopardy situation for two of 33 residents (Residents R1 and R2) identified as having a high risk for wandering.Findings include: Review of facility policy Elopement Prevention dated 4/17/25, revealed the facility properly assesses residents and plans their care to prevent accidents related to wandering behavior or elopement. The admitting nurse will perform an initial assessment. A care plan will be developed that reflects the potential for elopement and preventative measures. Admitting nurses or other staff members noting elopement risk and wandering behaviors must notify the nursing Unit Manager/Designee or the ADON (Assistant Director of Nursing). Should the resident's behavior warrant elopement prevention measures, a comprehensive elopement prevention plan will be documented as part of the care plan. Staff observations will be noted during the resident's stay and modifications will be made to the care plan and prevention techniques. If signaling device is indicated, obtain a physician's order for use of the signaling device and document the reason for application of the device in the resident's clinical record. Once the plan of care is determined, the nursing unit manager will notify the staff of the elopement risk and the interventions to be implemented. Photographs of the resident are provided to the receptionist. The receptionist will maintain the list of all residents at risk for elopement, including the resident's name, room number.

Each unit was educated on redirection as well as an update on this resident so that we can keep the resident safe. The granddaughter reported that resident loved going outside, drinking coffee and watching tv. RN discussed ways to involve the resident in the milieu to help decrease resident's urge to wander, and to keep [resident] safe, while also keeping [him/her] engaged on the unit. RN suggested having a staff member walk with [resident] and talk with [him/her] at times throughout the day, bringing the resident to the dining room so she can socialize as well as have coffee, and also involving activities to bring [resident] out into the courtyard with staff so [resident] can go outside and get time outside so [he/she] does not feel so sheltered.

I immediately recalled a conversation I overheard earlier. She [Resident R1] was on speakerphone with a woman as [he/she] was walking from the direction of the ambulance entrance towards the nurses station, the woman said do you see the desk? Make a left at the desk [he/she] turned the corner at the nurses station and saying [he/she] wanted to go outside to clear [his/her] head. The lady on the phone was talking over [resident] and asked [him/her] if [resident] could see the fireplace from where [he/she] was, [resident] told her yes and the lady told [resident] to go in that direction. At first I assumed [he/she] was a visitor but I asked RN Manager Employee E9 just to be sure, she told me it was our new resident. I said [resident] is going to need a wanderguard if [resident] doesn't already have one. RN Manager Employee E9 said [resident] did have one so I went back to what I was doing. As soon as Assistant Administrator Employee E5 and RN Manager Employee E8 said that her daughter thinks [he/she] is outside I said crap [he/she] probably is, someone [resident] was on the phone with told [him/her] how to get to the front of the building. Resident greeter was at the front door and the receptionist was at the desk, the doors were unlocked and the alarm was not going off. I went outside and found [resident] sitting on the bench outside of PC (Personal Care). I approached [resident] and asked [him/her] if [he/she] was Resident R1 and [he/she] said yep! [Resident] was sitting on the phone with her granddaughter on speakerphone, unharmed and joyous about what a beautiful day it is and she was so happy to go outside and clear her mind. Review of witness statement dated 10/4/25, completed by NA Employee E6 revealed, Around 3 p.m. on 10/3/25 I walked over to Angel Wing to go on break with my mom. As I was looking for her I saw Resident R1 walk past me on the phone while someone was saying look for the nurses station. Roughly 20 minutes later RN Manager Employee E8 came rushing over and asking if anyone has seen [Resident R1]. My mom and I went outside to look for [him/her] and saw [resident] sitting outside of PC. We escorted [resident] back inside as [him/her] daughter was on the phone trying to fight with the aides. Review of undated witness statement completed by Assistant Administrator Employee E5 revealed, On 10/3/25 I was in my office when Receptionist, Employee E1 came into my office and told me Resident R1's daughter is on the phone and explained that [Resident R1] is outside. I immediately went back to Angel Wing with RN Manager Employee E8 to see if [he/she] was in [his/her] room first. When [he/she] was not in [his/her] room, RN Manager Employee E8, two CNAs (Certified Nurse Aides), and myself went out the front door. I went right towards the parking lot; the CNAs went left towards Personal Care. I heard the CNAs bring [him/her] back into the building as resident is able to walk on [his/her] own. I then had RN Manager Employee E8 do a complete assessment to make sure everything was okay with resident. I also instructed for resident to immediately have a wander guard placed on [him/her]. I also instructed the nurses to make sure the orders are in the computer and it is care planned as an immediate plan of action to prevent it happening again. RN Manager Employee E8 and I then called the resident representative, which is [resident] granddaughter to report the event. Review of witness statement dated 10/8/25, completed by Receptionist Employee E1 revealed, I was working in the office at the time of the incident, going back and forth from the front desk to the copy room and business office to finish end-of-day tasks. Around 4:00 p.m. or so, I received a call from Resident R1's daughter. She sounded very upset and said she had received a message from someone at our facility saying that [Resident R1] had gotten out and wanted to know what was going on. I asked her to hold while I tried to find out what had happened, then I immediately went to Assistant Administrator Employee E5's office to tell him about the call I had received. He told me to forward it to Resident R1's nurses station, so I returned to my desk to do that. I followed up with a call to the supervisor for that nurse's station just to make sure someone else was aware, just in case they somehow missed the initial call. Nobody answered, but I assume now that it was probably because they were already looking for Resident R1. After that, I decided to forego the end-of-day tasks in favor of staying at the front desk in case I was immediately needed while the nursing staff went in and out of the building searching for Resident R1. I believe [he/she] was found and returned to the building around 4:15 or 4:20. I remained at the front desk until the end of my shift at 4:30 p.m., at which point I notified Assistant Administrator Employee E5 that I was leaving since I was closing the front office and locking the front door while he was still inside.

F760G · Actual harm, isolated

Based on review of facility policy and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to provide medication as ordered by the physician for two of two residents (Resident R19 and R182), resulting in significant medication errors due to receiving another resident's medications for one of five residents reviewed (Resident R182). This created actual harm which required a transfer to the emergency department and admission to a telemetry unit (a unit of a hospital where patients receive continuous heart monitoring) for Resident R182. Findings include: Review of facility policy Specific Medication Administration Procedures dated 4/17/25, indicated to review the five Rights of medication administration (right medication, right patient, right dose, right route, right time) three times. Identify the resident using two identification methods before administering medication (e.g., photo plus verbal confirmation of last name, photo and confirmation by family member, etc.) Review of the facility policy titled, Physician Orders last reviewed 4/17/25, stated physician orders are followed in accordance with good nursing principles and practices and are transcribed and carried out by persons legally authorized to do so. Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R19 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of osteoporosis (a condition in which bones become weak and brittle), hip fracture, and arthritis (swelling and tenderness in one or more joints). Review of Resident R19's hospital discharge summary dated 4/21/25, indicated to administer 70 milligrams (mg) of Fosamax once every seven days for osteoporosis. Review of Resident R19's physician order dated 4/21/25, entered by Registered Nurse, Employee E22 indicated to administer 70 mg of Fosamax one time a day for seven days. Review of information submitted to the Department of Health on 4/28/25, stated on 4/28/25, at approximately 8:00 a.m. a Registered Nurse was alerted a medication error had occurred. Resident R19 was ordered Fosamax 70 mg every seven days and the order was entered once a day for seven days. The administration record revealed the resident received five doses of Fosamax over a seven-day period. The provider was notified and assessed the resident. The resident's family was notified and requested the resident to be sent to the hospital for further evaluation. It was indicated education will be provided to all nurses on entering orders. Review of Resident R19's April 2025 Medication Administration Record (MAR) on 5/19/25, at 9:22 a.m. revealed Resident R19 received 70 mg Fosamax on 4/22/25, 4/23/25, 4/24/25, 4/26/25, and 4/27/25. Review of the facility's investigation on 5/19/25, revealed on 4/28/25, a Nursing In Service was provided to staff of how to enter daily versus weekly orders in the electronic record. Review of the list of staff members educated failed to include evidence RN, Employee E22 was reeducated. Review of RN, Employee E22's timesheet revealed she worked on 4/28/25, from 2:07 p.m. until 10:37 p.m. and 4/30/25, from 11:00 p.m. until 7:32 a.m. During an interview on 5/20/25, at 1:05 p.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the facility failed to reeducate RN, Employee E22 and failed to ensure Resident R19 was free from significant medication errors. Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R182 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident R182's MDS dated [DATE], indicated diagnoses of coronary artery disease (damage or disease in the heart's major blood vessels), Alzheimer's Disease (a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions), and Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA - also known as a stroke, sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain). Review of a progress note dated 4/30/25, completed by Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner (CRNP) Employee E18 stated, Resident was seen for hypoxia (the absence of enough oxygen in the tissues to sustain bodily functions) and vomiting. - After assessment, there was concern for respiratory depression and abdominal distress. Ordered CXR (chest x-ray) and Abdominal x-ray. After about an hour, it was discovered that the resident likely got another residents medications which included long acting narcotic (a controlled medication that can dull senses, relieve pain, and include sleep), beta blocker (a medication used to treat high blood pressure and heart rate), SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor, a medication used to increase Serotonin in the brain), Anticoagulant (a medication used to prevent blood from clotting), oral diabetic med (a medication used to lower blood sugar levels), calcium channel blocker (a medication used to treat high blood pressure), and diuretic (a medication used to lower blood pressure and fluid retention). Resident sent to the hospital for evaluation. Will follow up on return. Review of an Emergency Medicine Physical Evaluation dated 4/30/25, completed by an emergency room physician stated, Altered mental status, patient was given wrong medications this morning. He was given heart medications, blood pressure medications, narcotics/opiates, Lasix (a diuretic), and blood thinners. Upon EMS (Emergency Medical Service) arrival patient was bradycardic (slow heart rate less than 60 beats per minute), hypotensive (low blood pressure), and confused. EMS gave 1 mg (milligram) of Narcan (Naloxone - a medication used to treat known or possible opioid overdose), 1 mg atropine (a medication used to treat low heart rate), and 4 mg of Zofran (a medication used to treat nausea and vomiting). EMS reports that the patient was given 18 medications in error this morning that belonged to another patient. He was then found unresponsive. EMS reports that the medications the patient had given included oxycodone among others, so the patient was given naloxone with improvement in his mental status. He was initially very bradycardic with heart rates in the 30's as well and hypotensive. EMS reports that after a 500 cc (milliliters) IV (intravenous) fluid bolus the patient's heart rate improved to the 60's in a sinus rhythm and blood pressure improved to 120s over 80's. The medications that the patient received this morning included amlodipine, extended-release oxycodone, cefadroxil, escitalopram, folic acid, furosemide, empagliflozin, metoprolol tartrate, omeprazole, saccharomyces, Senokot, thiamine, vitamin-C, rivaroxaban, and Carafate. EMS does report 1 episode of vomiting prior to their arrival. EMS administered Zofran EN route as well. The patient is unable to contribute significantly to history due to altered mental status. He denies pain. The patient will be admitted for further observation and management. Review of facility investigation documents dated 4/30/25 stated, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) E2 is confident he [Resident R182] received Resident R42's medications at 7:39 a.m. CNA (Certified Nurse Aide) identified resident to be not baseline at 8:56 a.m. Blood pressure 96/52 mmHg (millimeters of mercury), heart rate 48, oxygen saturation 85% on room air, respirations 16 at 8:58 a.m. 2 liters of oxygen applied immediately. Review of facility investigation documents indicated the following medications were incorrectly administered by LPN Employee E2 to Resident R182 on 4/30/25: - Senna-Docusate (a laxative) 8.6-50 mg, two tablets - Vitamin C 500 mg - Xtampza (an opioid used to treat pain) ER (extended release) 13.5 mg - Carafate (a medication used to treat ulcers in the small intestines) 1 gm (gram) - Cefadroxil (a medication used to treat infections) 1 gm - Metoprolol Tartrate (a medication used to lower blood pressure) 50 mg - MiraLAX (a medication used to treat constipation) powder 17 gm - Omeprazole (a medication used to treat acid reflux) 20 mg - Thiamine (Vitamin B1) 100 mg - One-Daily Multi Vitamins tablet - Rivaroxaban (a medication used to thin the blood and prevent clotting) 10 mg - Saccharomyces boulardii (a probiotic) 250 mg - Folic Acid 1 mg - Furosemide (a medication used to rid the body of excess water) 20 mg, give 1.5 tablet (30 mg) - Amlodipine (a medication used to lower blood pressure) 10 mg - Empagliflozin (a medication used to lower blood sugar) 10 mg - Escitalopram (a medication used to treat depression) 200 mg Review of a witness statement dated 4/30/25, completed by LPN Employee E2 stated, On Wednesday 4/30/25 I was working the medication cart on front hall of GRU. I gave Resident R182 accidentally and unknowingly another resident's medications. At approximately 7:59 a.m. a nurse aide informed me he did not look well. On my way to assess him, I saw one of the CRNPs and asked her to help me assess Resident R182 and wasn't sure yet what was wrong. Upon entering the room, he appeared tired. When I asked if he was ok he replied I need to throw up. Resident did throw up in basin. While CRNP spoke to him, I grabbed everything to assess his vitals. Pulse oxygen on room air was 85%, applied nasal cannula at 2 liters per minute and notified CRNP Employee E18. Stayed with resident to monitor for a little while. Expressed to nursing peer that I was concerned about him. CRNP Employee E18 informed me a chest x-ray was being ordered in case of the event of aspiration. When CRNP Employee E18 assessed pulse oxygenation it was 99% at 3 liters per minute and heart rate was in the upper 40's. I thought it would be ok to return to med cart briefly to get Resident R42's oxycodone after being told by staff he was asking for it. It was then when I noticed my signature of Xtampza listed on first page of narc sheet. I began to look at medication passed earlier. When I saw Resident R42's meds signed off I immediately realized I did not give them to him, and they went to Resident R182. I immediately self-reported to the Registered Nurse Supervisor when I realized what took place. Supporting staff notified physician and administration. Resident was transported to the hospital via ambulance. During an interview on 5/19/25, at 12:24 p.m. LPN Employee E2 stated, I got distracted that morning, there were a lot of people talking to me. The aide came to me and said Resident R182 didn't look well, he said he felt sick, like he needed to puke. I grabbed the Nurse Practitioner (NP), who assessed the resident. The NP thought he just had an upset stomach, but he didn't look good. I think his blood pressure was 94/48, his pulse ox (oxygen saturation) was 84%, he was sweating. The ADON (Assistant Director of Nursing) stepped in, I went back to the medication cart and the wound care nurse let me know that Resident R42 across the hall wanted his oxycodone. When I went to sign out his oxycodone, I saw his Xtampza was already signed out, that's when I realized I had given Resident R42's medications to Resident R182. I was never told the best method is to bring the medication cart with me to each resident room. During orientation, I was trained by two different LPNs, neither of them told me to use the pictures in the electronic medical record to verify residents. They must have thought that was common sense. That experience was so scary, I could have killed that person. During an interview on 5/20/25, at 1:57 p.m. the DON confirmed that the facility failed to provide medication as ordered by the physician, resulting in significant medication errors due to Resident R182 receiving another resident's medications. 28 Pa.

Based on facility policy, review of a closed clinical record, staff interviews, and agency reports, it was determined that the facility neglected to continuously assess, provide interventions, and follow physician's orders which resulted in severe respiratory distress to one of one resident reviewed (Resident CR1). Findings include: Review of the facility policy, "Resident Abuse, Neglect, and Misappropriation of Resident Property" revised 6/22/12, revealed that the facility will provide a safe and secure environment for all residents...will continually monitor policies, procedures, and training programs by assessing, care planning, and monitoring of residents with needs and behaviors that may lead to a conflict or neglect. Review of the clinical record indicated that Resident CR1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of the physician's order dated 12/12/12, directed staff to administer oxygen to Resident CR1 at a rate of four liters per minute every shift, every day (continuous) by nasal cannula (plastic tubing hooked to oxygen which fits behind the ears, and a set of two prongs which are placed in the nose). Review of a "Management Contact Report" (a statement from an employee during an investigation of an incident) dated 12/16/12, from Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Employee E1 and a written statement from Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E2 dated 12/16/12, indicated that prior to lunch (approximately 12:30 p.m. - 12:40 p.m.) LPN E1 and NA E2 walked Resident CR1 down the hallway to the shower room to be toileted without using the oxygen. After using the toilet, Resident CR1 was walked back to his chair, again without the oxygen, and was having difficulty breathing. The resident's oxygen saturation level (the level of oxygen that is present in the blood and is supplied throughout the body for its smooth functioning-normal level is 97%-99%) at that time was documented in the progress notes at 83% (abnormal -indicating the red blood cells were being deprived of oxygen) without the oxygen. The nasal cannula was then reapplied and the oxygen was reconnected and administered. On 12/16/12, at approximately 1:10 p.m., following lunch, NA Employee E3 un-plugged Resident CR1's oxygen concentrator and transferred the resident in a wheeled, recliner chair to the back hall lounge without using the oxygen, then left the lounge area to retrieve the oxygen equipment. When NA E3 returned to the back lounge, she proceeded to move the furniture around while Resident R1 waited for the oxygen to be reconnected. On 12/16/12, at approximately 1:30 p.m., (20 minutes later) the Resident's Family RF1 notified LPN Employee E1 that Resident CR1 was having difficulty breathing. LPN Employee E1 assessed the resident as being pale, grey, cold to the touch, and sweating profusely with rales (rattling/crackling sounds caused by congestion in the lungs) in both sides of the chest. Resident CR1 was left unattended in the back room lounge with no interventions in place while LPN Employee E1 returned to the nursing station to call a supervisor, call the physician, and begin paperwork for transfer out to the hospital. Resident family RF1 who remained in the back lounge called 911 emergency. An ambulance report dated 12/16/12, revealed that when the ambulance arrived at the facility at 2:01 p.m., Resident CR1 was observed in the back lounge, in severe respiratory distress, was ashen in color, diaphoretic (sweating), had an altered level of consciousness, and was moving very little air (shallow respirations). Resident CR1's oxygen saturation level was 38% (a critical level). Resident CR1 was reported as grunting on expiration, and his nail beds were turning blue. The ambulance report also revealed that there were no facility staff in attendance on arrival or monitoring the resident. The ambulance attendants observed a nasal cannula was in place, but not hooked up to the oxygen. The resident was transported to the hospital and admitted in critical condition to the intensive care unit with a collapsed lung and a severe respiratory infection. During an interview on 1/4/13, at 1:30 p.m., the Director of Nursing confirmed that the facility staff neglected to administer oxygen to Resident CR1 when being assisted with transfers, failed to continuously assess and monitor a resident that was in severe respiratory distress, and failed to provide for or have in place interventions for Resident CR1 during a respiratory crisis. During a telephone interview on 1/7/13, at 11:30 a.m., LPN Employee E1 confirmed that following Resident CR1's lung assessment on 12/16/12, at approximately 1:30 p.m., Resident CR1 was in respiratory distress, that a facility staff person was not present to continuously monitor and assess the respiratory distress, and that the facility did not provide for or have in place interventions for Resident CR1 during a respiratory crisis. 483.13(c) Prohibit Mistreatment/Neglect/Misappropriation.
