  • Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F689 date October 9, 2018
  • The state investigators determined the nursing home "failed to provide the assistance of two-person staff when providing incontinence care, which resulted in a fall with a minor injury.” The investigation involved a moderately cognitively impaired resident who “needed extensive assistance with two people for bed mobility, transfers, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene.”

    A family member of the resident stated that “the resident fell out of bed during incontinence care because there was only one Nurse Assistant.” The resident said that when the Nursing Assistant “rolled the resident on his side, he fell out of bed.”

    The resident stated that “his left arm and shoulder were hurting but would state it was from a fall several months ago, not his recent fall. He also denied any back pain and was observed moving his left arm slightly, without any complaints or signs/symptoms of pain.”

    In a separate summary statement of deficiencies, dated December 21, 2017, the nursing home “failed to prevent [two residents] from leaving the facility unattended.” One cognitively impaired resident “left the facility and walked across two four lane roads with moderate to heavy traffic before being stopped approximately 1.2 miles from the facility.”

    A different resident “who had experienced a change in mental status, left the facility dressed in a T-shirt, shorts, and no shoes in 37°F weather. [The resident] walked approximately 520 feet from the facility, and remained out of the facility for approximately 54 minutes.”

    The Elopement/Wandering Risk Review for the first resident identified “risk factors that included impaired cognition.” The area on the form was left blank for “a history of elopement.”

    At 6:00 PM on July 2, 2017, the facility initiated a Code Orange (facility code for a missing resident). The family was called ten minutes later. The staff continued to search for the resident. At 6:49 PM, a family member of the resident informed the facility that “she received a call that [the resident] had been found by the police and had been taken to the hospital for an evaluation.”

Client Reviews

★★★★★
Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa

After I read Jonathan’s Nursing Home Blog, I decided to hire him to look into my wife’s treatment at a local nursing home. Jonathan did a great job explaining the process and the laws that apply to nursing homes. I immediately felt at ease and was glad to have him on my side. Though the lawsuit process was at times frustrating, Jonathan reassured me, particularly at my deposition. I really felt like Jonathan cared about my wife’s best interests, and I think that came across to the lawyers for the nursing home. Eric
