Inspection Findings
During an interview on 10/1/25 at 10:52 a.m., social services designee (SSD)-A acknowledged R1 was on a civil commitment and indicated she uploaded court documents on 9/25/25 when she received them by e-fax.
The SSD-A stated R1's commitment was through May 21, 2026, and the recommendations in the commitment were for R1 to continue psychiatric treatment because R1 was a significant danger to himself, was chemically dependent, and not safe to live at home alone.
The SSD-A acknowledged R1 did not have a care plan related to the commitment but should have.
During an interview on 10/1/25 at 11:42 a.m., registered nurse (RN)-A stated R1 did not have care plan interventions related to elopement or civil commitment, but should have, and further stated it was not her job to develop the care plan.
During an interview on 10/1/25 at 2:30 p.m., the director of nursing (DON) acknowledged R1's care plan lacked focus areas for elopement and civil commitment, but both should have been included in R1's care plan.
The DON stated the care plan was used to direct staff on how to care for the resident, and staff would not have known their responsibilities for either focus area.
The Elopement Policy dated 6/23, indicated upon admission, each resident was assessed to establish elopement risk.
Documentation should include a care plan that addressed potential to wander or exit the facility and measures taken to prevent elopement. A policy for civil commitment was requested and not provided.
