locked unit, because her guardian did not want her on the locked unit. When this writer queried as to why Resident #109 was on the locked unit when she did not have a room on the unit, CNA JJ reported that the facility management had told staff that they were going to have Resident #109 do day care on the memory unit until her guardian consented to having her moved. CNA JJ reported that it did not make sense that Resident #109 was on the unit, because she enjoyed wandering, and she could not wander as much on the locked unit. CNA JJ reported that she had not observed Resident #109 exit seeking before. In an interview
on 8/13/25 at 12:45 PM: CNA Q reported that the facility had been placing Resident #109 in the locked unit until bedtime for awhile because they felt like with her wandering and behaviors, she needed more supervision. CNA Q reported that Resident #109 was considered a day care resident and went back to the main unit at night because her guardian did not want her on the locked unit. CNA Q reported that Resident #109 did wander a lot, but she had not observed her exit seeking. In an interview on 8/13/25 at 1:10 PM, Family Member/Guardian (FM) EE reported that the facility had been trying to talk him into moving Resident #109 to the locked unit for months, and he was not agreeable to this. FM EE reported that he felt like the facility was pushing him to allow Resident #109 into the locked unit because she was exit seeking but he felt the facility had not provided evidence of Resident #109 exit seeking. FM EE reported that he wanted to move Resident #109 to a new facility, and that he felt like having Resident #109 move to a new unit prior to moving to a new facility would create more stress and confusion for her, and he did not feel that moving Resident #109 to the locked unit was in her best interest. Resident #109 reported that the facility had mentioned trialing the locked unit with Resident #109 during their last care conference, and he again did not give the facility explicit consent to have Resident #109 on the locked unit during the day either. In an
interview on 8/13/25 at 1:36 PM, Director of Social Services (DOSS) HH reported that the facility was trialing Resident #109 on the locked unit during the day for additional supervision during the day. DOSS HH reported that the facility physician had assessed Resident #109 and felt that she would benefit from being
on that unit, and that the facility had an order to move her to the unit, but they were waiting on consent from Resident #109's guardian to do so. DOSS HH reported that she thought that FM EE had consented to allowing Resident #109 onto the locked unit during the day, but she was not able to confirm because she was not part of that conversation. In an interview on 8/18/25 at 12:56 PM, Director of Nursing (DON) B reported that she had tried to talk with FM EE about moving Resident #109 to the locked unit, but that he refused to discuss that with her over the phone. DON B reported that Resident #109 was not really on the unit because her room was not over there, but that they had her there during the day for her own safety.
DON B was not able to report how long the facility had been sending Resident #109 to the locked unit
during the day. DON B did not know if FM EE had given consent for Resident #109 to be on the locked unit
during the day. On 8/13/25 at 3:49 PM, This writer requested all verification of notification to Resident #109 to Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) A. NHA A provided Resident #109 care conference note dated 2/17/25, which was completed by the facility's former administrator. Review of Resident #109's Care Conference Note dated 2/17/25 revealed, Writer and DON had a phone care conference with Ombudsman and legal guardian (name redacted) regarding the transfer to the Dementia unit and after a half hour of speaking with guardian he still decided that he did not want his mother moved to the Dementia unit. he told all parties that he was going to move her to another facility as soon as he is able to . In an interview on 8/18/25 at 1:54 PM, NHA A reported that the facility was not able to provide any further documentation or verification that the facility had obtained consent from Resident #109's guardian to have her in the locked dementia unit during the day.
