told about that.During an interview on 9/26/25 at 12:13 PM, CNA I revealed, Resident R200 was in a mood that day. I did not see a gait belt around the wheelchair; I was told about it but did not see it. He was having major behaviors that morning. He was not sitting in his wheelchair at all because he kept getting up. CNA I revealed she had been interviewed and had received education by administration because a Gait belt wrapped around the wheelchair (and resident) is considered a restraint and needs to be reported because it's a type of abuse. Review of Nursing Home Guide: Restraints education provided to facility staff from 8/22/25 - 9/16/25 revealed the following is considered a physical restraint, Lap belts, bed rails, locked chairs, wrist/ankle ties.

better to help prevent a fall. RN D stated it wasn't even 10 minutes later when CNA E asked if I had saw the gait belt on Resident R200. I thought she meant around his waist. I had not seen it around the wheelchair until she brought it to my attention. The gait belt was around Resident R200 and his wheelchair. I told the aides to take it off him immediately because it was being used as a restraint. Resident R200 seemed fine, he was just at the table eating breakfast. I then called and left messages for the DON and the Unit Manager (UM) J and reported what happened. I talked to the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA). RN D stated a skin assessment was completed on Resident R200 with no concerns. She stated she had not talked to Resident R200's family or physician about

the incident. RN D clarified she had three aides in the dining room besides CNA E and none of them admitted to restraining Resident R200 with a gait belt. RN D revealed she reported the incident because she considered it to be abuse.
