SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES

that Resident 1 should have had an elopement care plan created because of his high risk for elopement and having a diagnosis of dementia as well as a history of leaving AMA. LN 3 explained that if a resident was a high risk for elopement, especially with dementia, staff would implement interventions such as assigning a sitter or 1:1 direct supervision, applying a WanderGuard, (a security system designed to protect residents in healthcare facilities, particularly those with memory care needs, from wandering out of designated safe areas) and providing 24-hour monitoring for 3 days to ensure safety. LN 3 stated that all shifts were responsible for working together to develop a care plan. LN 3 further stated that an elopement care plan was important to ensure Resident 1's safety.During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Elopements and Wandering Residents, dated 4/16/21, the P&P indicated, .This facility ensures that residents who exhibit wandering behavior and/or are at risk for elopement receive adequate supervision to prevent accidents, and receive care in accordance with their person-centered plan of care addressing the unique factors contributing to wandering or elopement risk.The facility shall establish and utilize a systematic approach to monitoring and managing residents at risk for elopement or unsafe wandering, including identification and assessment of risk, evaluation and analysis of hazards and risks, implementing interventions to reduce hazards and risks, and monitoring for effectiveness and modifying interventions when necessary.Residents will be assessed for risk of elopement and unsafe wandering upon admission and throughout their stay by the interdisciplinary care plan team.Interventions to increase staff awareness of the resident's risk, modify the resident's behavior, or to minimize risks associated with hazards will be added to the resident's care plan and communicated to appropriate staff.Staff may be educated on the reasons for elopement and possible strategies for avoiding such behavior.
