On 09/13/23 at 4:33 PM the Administrator was notified that the failure to adequately supervise Resident (R)5 to prevent a successful elopement from the facility on 09/11/23 at approximately 9:00 PM constituted Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) at F689. On 09/13/23 at 4:33 PM, the survey team provided the Administrator with a copy of the CMS IJ Template and informed the facility that IJ existed as of 09/11/23, when R5 had successfully eloped from the facility.

Findings include: Review of the undated facility policy titled Exit-Seeking Policy and Protocol revealed, the purpose of this policy is to maintain the resident(s) safety in the least restrictive as possible. The procedure includes: identify those residents who exhibit exit seeking behaviors.

Review of R5's Face Sheet revealed R5 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnoses including but not limited to, dementia without behaviors, type 2 diabetes, heart failure, and major depressive disorder. Review of R5's Admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 09/03/23 revealed R5 had a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 5 out of 15 which indicates R5 is not cognitively intact.

The resident was compliant and was put to bed, 1:1 observation was initiated until further notice. Administration, the Medical Director, and R5 Resident Representative notified of occurrence. Review of R5's Elopement Risk Tool dated 09/04/23 revealed R5 was not found to be at risk for elopement during the assessment period. During an interview on 09/13/23 at 11:19 AM, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)1 stated, I was called by [LPN2] and was told that [Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)1] was going to her lunch break when they saw the resident outside in the parking lot close by the front entrance. We are unsure of what door the resident was able to leave out of because the facility does not have cameras and I was told that no alarms went off. The resident often has visits with his son and at times leaves the building with his son and may have remembered how to leave the building that way. This was the resident's first time having an exit-seeking behavior, I am unsure if the resident had any elopement assessment prior to this incident but one was completed after the incident along with an electronic monitoring bracelet. The resident was placed on a one on one observation at first then later was put on 1-hour rounds to ensure that he remained in his room for the rest of the night. During an interview on 09/13/23 at 11:28 AM, LPN2 stated, [CNA1] was going to lunch around 9:00 PM and when she went outside, she saw the resident outside in the parking lot, she was able to encourage the resident to come back inside. We were not able to determine how long the resident was outside or how far away he wandered before he was found but my last observation of him was around 6:45 PM or 7:00 PM when I was going to lunch, and I saw his CNA bringing him back to his unit from another area in the facility. I am unsure if the resident had any elopement assessments, this was the first time that he had any exit-seeking behaviors, but he had been acting 'kind of weird' that night. After the resident was brought into the facility, I completed an assessment on him, and he had no injuries or signs of harm and we put an electronic monitoring device on his ankle. We also had a CNA sitting with him for one on one observation before we put the electronic monitoring device then after we had rounds on him for every hour until the end of my shift. During an interview on 09/13/23 at 12:08 PM, CNA1 stated, I was going outside for my lunch break a little after 9:00 PM and I saw the resident in the parking lot in his wheelchair. I wasn't his CNA that night so I went to get CNA2 and we were able to encourage him to come back inside. I don't remember hearing any door alarms going off and I don't know how he was able to leave or get out of the gate. The last time I saw the resident before I found him outside, he was asking out how he could get outside but I did not think he would try to leave, this was the first time he ever had exit-seeking behaviors.
