C. Record review
The delusion care plan, initiated on 12/30/24, documented Resident #2 was easily confused at baseline and would make delusional statements to staff. The delusions caused different levels of distress. Resident #2 had intermittent periods of agitation where she tried to get out of bed or her wheelchair.
The cognition care plan, initiated on 7/19/24, documented Resident #2 was easily confused and experienced impaired decision making, memory loss and disorientation. The interventions included adjusting according to
the resident's current cognitive status, communicating with the family and caregivers regarding the resident's capabilities, engaging the resident in simple and structured activities, keeping the resident's routine consistent and trying to provide consistent caregivers as much as possible in order to decrease confusion.
The transfers care plan, initiated on 8/12/24, documented Resident #2 required the use of a mechanical lift for all transfers.

III. Staff interviews
The NHA, the director of nursing (DON), the social services director (SSD), social worker (SW) #1 and the nurse educator (NE) were interviewed together on 3/6/25 at 11:41 a.m. They all said they were not aware
they were being recorded during Resident #2's care conferences. SW #1 said she was aware some residents at the facility had cameras in their resident rooms.
They all confirmed Resident #2 had a recliner chair in her room and her bed was positioned up against the wall on the right side. The DON said Resident #2 was impulsive, had hallucinations at times and would attempt to get out of bed without assistance often. She said at times, the facility staff would get Resident #2 up in the chair and place her at the nursing station to be watched, but they could not do that all of the time.
The SSD said Resident #2's family was very involved and willing to come in and sit with the resident when
she was having episodes of impulsivity, agitation and hallucinations.
They all confirmed pushing the recliner chair up against the bed was considered a physical restraint because Resident #2 would not be able to exit the bed while the chair was positioned in that way.
The NHA was interviewed on 3/6/25 at 12:10 p.m. The NHA said CNA #1 should never have pushed the recliner chair up against Resident #2's bed. She said in the context of CNA #1 saying We need you to stay in bed so you don' t fall, the recliner chair being pushed up against the bed was considered a physical restraint.

She said angel rounds had been completed that morning and in the days that followed the 1/21/25 incident between Resident #1 and CNA #1. She said during the angel rounds they asked questions such as if residents were being treated with respect and dignity and if they felt they were harmed by a staff member or resident. She said the residents had not reported any mistreatment by staff.
She said the facility staff who attended the care conference on 1/23/25 said they thought the family had more of a customer service complaint, but the word rough was an allegation of abuse and should have been investigated as such.

F 0600 CNA #2 submitted a form on 4/12/24 that was completed by CNA #2 and dated 4/12/24. The report documented LPN #1 was blocking the entry to the nurse's office to all of the residents on the secured unit. Level of Harm - Actual harm LPN #1 grabbed Resident #1 by her forearm and twisted it, telling Resident #1 to go away while the resident was trying to enter the nurse's station. Resident #1 grabbed some items from the medication cart and threw Residents Affected - Few them at LPN #1. LPN #1 got upset and yelled at Resident #1. LPN #1 did not let the resident go and was yelling at the resident to stop. Resident #1 was getting more aggressive and combative. CNA #2 said she asked LPN # 1 to let the resident go and LPN #1 said no. CNA #2 told LPN #1 that yelling and grabbing Resident #1 would not help the situation. Resident #1 started hitting CNA #2. CNA #2 took Resident #1 away from LPN #1 and Resident #1 calmed down.
The investigation documented Resident #1 was cognitively impaired and did not recall the incident.
The investigation documented LPN #1 was interviewed on 4/17/24 at 8:31 a.m. LPN #1 said when she arrived on the unit, the nurse's station had residents roaming around it. She said that after escorting the residents out of the nurse's station, she used the medication cart to block the door. LPN #1 said a CNA was assisting her. LPN #1 said
Resident #1 was grabbing things off the cart which she was allowing to happen until she was going for the computer on the cart.

Resident #1 was easily overstimulated and did not do well in Residents Affected - Few loud environments. The care plan documented loud environments caused her agitation and delusions to increase which led to increased exit seeking and striking out at staff. The care plan documented her mood fluctuated from pleasant to angry in a short time. She could verbally and physically strike out during these episodes. Her delusions caused her to become angry and distressed. Interventions included encouraging Resident #1 to participate in activities that may be of interest to her, redirecting the resident if the activity appeared to be overstimulating or triggering to her, ensuring the resident was in a safe place when her anger appeared to be escalating and providing oversight as able to ensure safety.
The health status note, dated 4/7/24, documented staff were monitoring Resident #1's arms for redness and irritation.

F 0600 RN #1 said de-escalation skills helped and she tried to incorporate calmness on the secured unit. RN #1 said getting the residents outside for fresh air and walking with them helped keep the residents calm. Level of Harm - Actual harm RN #1 said if she saw resident abuse she would ask that staff member to leave immediately. She said she Residents Affected - Few would approach the resident and de-escalate the situation. She said she would report the abuse to the DON.
She said she would document what she witnessed in the resident's EMR
The DON was interviewed on 3/6/25 at 10:40 a.m. The DON said agency staff received a large packet of training information that contained abuse, reporting and risk management. She said before agency staff worked at the facility, they had to read and acknowledge the information received.
The DON said the residents on the secured unit were not able to verbalize their needs and feelings. She said
the unit served residents of all different needs. She said the staff on the unit were trained to anticipating the residents' needs. She said the staff made sure the residents had a good quality of life, dignity, care and felt safe.
The DON said she was not sure why the abuse investigation from 4/12/24 was unsubstantiated.
The NHA was interviewed on 3/6/25 at 10:54 a.m. The NHA said the abuse investigation was unsubstantiated
because LPN #1 said she only grabbed Resident #1's hand and the bruising was on her arms. She said the bruises on Resident #1's arm were not fingerprints. She said the bruising looked old and did not look fresh.
She said she did not know if LPN #1 was the one who actually caused the injuries on Resident #1's arms.
-However, review of Resident #1's EMR did not reveal documentation that the bruising was present prior to
the incident on 4/12/24.
The NHA said she was not at the facility when the police officer and nurse spoke to Resident #1. She said
the police officer thought the injuries were not from the nurse. She said the police officer said the way the bruising displayed did not match up. She said the bruising showed one finger and there would have been more fingerprints on her arm. She said the police officer made the determination to unsubstantiate the findings.
-However, abuse occurred due to CNA #2 observing LPN #1 willfully grab Resident #1's arm to move Resident #1 out of the way (see facility investigation above).

Specifically, the facility failed to ensure Resident #2, who had a history of getting up out of bed unassisted, was kept free from physical restraints.
Findings include:
I. Facility policy and procedure
The Restraint Free Environment policy and procedure, undated, was provided by the nursing home administrator (NHA) on 3/6/25 at 1:55 p.m. It revealed in pertinent part, It is the policy of [the facility] that each resident shall attain and maintain his/her highest practicable well-being in an environment that prohibits
the use of restraints for discipline or convenience and limits restraint use to circumstances in which the resident has medical symptoms that warrant the use of restraints.
Physical restraint refers to any manual method or physical or mechanical device, material, or equipment attached or adjacent to the resident's body that the individual cannot remove easily which restricts freedom of movement or normal access to one's body.
Discipline means any action taken by the facility for the purpose of punishing or penalizing residents.
Convenience refers to any action taken by the facility to control a resident's behavior or manage a resident's behavior with a lesser amount of effort by the facility and not in the resident's best interest.
The resident has the right to be treated with respect and dignity, including the right to be free from any physical or chemical restraint imposed for the purpose of discipline or staff convenience, and not required to treat the resident's medical symptoms.
Behavioral interventions should be used and exhausted prior to the application of a physical restraint.

She required partial to moderate Level of Harm - Minimal harm or assistance with bed mobility, toileting, dressing and personal hygiene and was dependent upon staff for potential for actual harm transfers.
Residents Affected - Few The assessment documented Resident #2 did not utilize a physical restraint.
B. Resident #2's representative interview
The resident's representative was interviewed on 3/4/25 at 4:50 p.m. She said Resident #2 had a recent decline since November 2024 and December 2024. She said her family members felt the facility had broken
a lot of trust over the course of her stay at the facility and they were concerned with how staff were treating Resident #2, so they installed a hidden camera in Resident #2's room and recorded the care conferences.
She said one of the nurses said during a care conference that Resident #2 would often misbehave and that comment was concerning for the resident's family members.
The resident's representative said the facility was constantly complaining to the family members that Resident #2 was attempting to get out of bed unassisted.
The resident's representative said the camera was placed facing the head of the bed.
The resident's representative said she came to visit Resident #2 multiple times, as well as did her daughter almost every night to assist the resident with eating. She said when she or her daughter would enter the room, they often times found the recliner chair pushed up against the bed, with Resident #2 lying in bed. She said Resident #2 was unable to move the recliner chair out of the way. She said she felt this was the facility staff's way of keeping Resident #2 in her bed.
The resident's representative said based on the video and pictures the family took, the recliner chair was pushed up against the resident's bed on 1/21/25 at 7:32 p.m. and on at least two other occasions. She described the pictures as follows:
Picture one: The head of the bed was facing the window. The resident's bed was pushed up against the wall
on the resident's right side. The recliner chair was pushed directly against the bed. It was approximately two feet from the head of the bed and the chair extended down until approximately one foot from the foot of the bed.
Picture two: The bed was positioned in the same way, against the wall on the resident's right side. The chair was pushed directly up against the bed in the same location as picture 1. The resident was laying sideways with her head up against the wall, her knees bent and legs curled up against the back of the recliner. It appeared as though the sheets were tangled up and she was holding them in her hand.
The resident's representative was interviewed again on 3/6/25 at 11:13 a.m. She said there was a video taken on 1/21/25 at 7:32 p.m. of a care interaction between a CNA and Resident #2. She said the video was one minute and twenty seconds long.

We see a CNA enter the frame on the left side with Level of Harm - Minimal harm or pillows in her hands. She is moving quickly and being quite brusque. She picks up a pillow, folds it in half and potential for actual harm begins touching near the end of the bed where [the resident's] legs are. [The resident] says something unclear and then or are you going to touch me again? The CNA says, nope, I' m going to touch you again. Residents Affected - Few
She continued to describe the video by saying the CNA then roughly pushes something near [the resident's] legs (presumably the pillow but it is not seen) and [the resident] cries out, Ow, I don' t want to be touched like that! It hurts! The CNA picks up another pillow and folds it in half. The CNA says, Well, we need you to stay
in bed, so you don' t fall. The CNA forcefully pushed [the resident] over onto her right side, towards the wall,
a loud thud is heard and [the resident] screams out in pain Ooooowwweee!
She said the video continued and she said While the CNA is forcefully pushing the pillows under her, [the resident] says I hate it, I don' t want that to happen again. Is that clear?! The CNA moves to the top of the bed and again forcefully pushes [the resident] towards the wall. [The resident] says Oh, that hurts me then rolls back on her back and screams AHHH, Stop it! The CNA pulls on the pillow under [the resident's] head and [the resident] asks
Why are you being rough on me? The CNA answers sharply, Because I need you to stay in bed! You then see [the resident] trying to fix her blankets and says, You shouldn' t do that to me, you shouldn' t be here.
The CNA is observed pushing the recliner chair directly up against the resident's bed. And the video ends.
