The Forum at Town Center

Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure all resident incidents were promptly investigated to rule out abuse and/or neglect and reported to the local SPD office if abuse and/or neglect could not reasonably be ruled out for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 1) with incidents which required an investigation. Findings include, but are not limited to:



Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 11/2019 with diagnoses including transient ischemic attack (brief stroke like attack), congestive heart failure and fall risk.



The service plan dated 08/06/24 noted Resident 1 required one person assist for dressing, bathing, transfers, and escorts in a wheelchair. The service plan also noted Resident 1 was at risk of falls, and of suffering severe injury from a fall, care staff were to monitor for falls more than once a shift, remind resident to use her/his call pendent, and provide a safe environment that was clutter free and personal items were within reach.



Review of the resident's 06/10/24 through 09/05/24 progress notes, and incident reports for the same time period were conducted during the survey.



Resident 1 had the following unwitnessed falls:



* On 06/30/24 the resident was found lying down on the floor between her/his recliner and the window and sustained a left shoulder fracture.

* On 09/02/24 Resident 1 was found on the ground between the toilet and shower. The resident was sent to the ED for an evaluation due to the resident complained of pressure to the back of her/his head.



The facility completed investigations at the time of the unwitnessed falls and determined the resident was unable to state how s/he ended up on the floor.



The investigations did not rule out abuse and/or neglect, and the incidents were not reported to the local SPD office.



On 09/10/24, survey requested the facility report the incidents to the local SPD office. At approximately 11:07 AM on 09/10/24, confirmation of the facility reporting the incident to the local SPD office was provided.



On 09/10/24 at 3:30 PM, the need to ensure all incidents for which abuse and/or neglect could not be ruled out were reported to the local SPD office was discussed with Staff 1 (Executive Director) and Staff 2 (Business Office manager). They acknowledged the findings.

Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure short-term changes of condition were evaluated, resident-specific interventions determined and documented, those actions conveyed to staff on all shifts, and the conditions monitored at least weekly through resolution for 3 of 3 sampled residents (#s 1, 2 and 3) who had documented changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to:

1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 07/2020 with diagnoses including atrial fibrillation, cardiac pacemaker, and acute renal failure.

Review of Resident 2’s service plan, dated 07/09/24, and progress notes, dated 06/09/24 through 09/09/24, revealed the following changes of condition:

*A progress note dated 07/18/24, identified the resident had an episode of “nausea, vomiting, loose stool, and stomach spasms”.

There was no documented evidence the conditions were evaluated and monitored, with necessary interventions developed and conveyed to staff, and progress noted at least weekly, to resolution.

On 09/10/24 at 3:45 pm, the need to ensure short-term changes of condition were evaluated, necessary resident-specific interventions determined and documented, those actions conveyed to staff on all shifts, and the conditions were monitored, at least weekly, through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Business Office Manager). They acknowledged the findings.

2. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 11/2019 with diagnoses including transient ischemic attack (brief stroke like attack), congestive heart failure and fall risk.

Resident 1's progress notes, dated 08/27/24 through 09/05/24 were reviewed and interviews with staff revealed the following changes of condition:

*08/27/24 – The resident was noted to chew and spit out regular texture foods, trial of puree texture initiated; and
*08/28/24 – Physician order for change of diet texture from regular to mechanical soft texture.

There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the changes of condition at least weekly until resolved.

The need to monitor and document at least weekly until changes of condition were resolved was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Business Office Manager) on 09/10/24 at 3:30 PM. They acknowledged the findings.

3. Resident 3 moved into the facility in 07/2024 with diagnoses including right heel pressure ulcer, permanent atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease.

Staff were interviewed and the resident's record was reviewed including the current service plan dated 09/02/24 and temporary care plans, task updates, and progress notes dated 07/30/24 through 09/10/24.

* 07/30/24 – New move-in;
* 07/30/24 – Bruises and scabs to right and left lower extremities;
* 08/20/24 – Ongoing medication refusals; and
