- Failure to Ensure the Nursing Home Area Remained Free of Accident Hazards and Risks and Provides Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F323 date May 24, 2017
According to state investigators, “the facility did not ensure that the resident environment remained as free from accident hazards as is possible on one of two Nursing Units.” Specifically, one resident had an accident hazard occurred in the resident’s room.
A review of the resident’s Quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessment indicated that the resident is “rarely or never understood.” The documentation indicates that the resident “wanders on a daily basis and was independent with personal hygiene, transfers, and ambulation.”
The Certified Nursing Assistant Accountability Record documented that “the resident requires an assist of one for activities of daily living and that the resident wanders.” The resident was observed just before lunchtime on May 17, 2017, in his room. The resident “ambulates and transfers independently. The resident had a Wanderguard [device] on his left wrist. The resident removed a disposable razor from his drawer, sat down on his bed, and began shaving himself.”
However, “the resident’s face was dry and did not have shaving cream on it. The resident then stopped shaving and put the disposable razor in his right pants pocket.” Two minutes later, the resident’s wife “was seen in the hallway. She stated that the resident is not supposed to shave himself and that she had complained about him having disposable razors and trying to shave himself before.”
Two minutes later, the Registered Nurse (RN) Supervisor “was notified of the resident having a razor in his pocket. The RN and the wife went to the resident’s room, and the resident’s wife was able to remove the razor from the resident’s pocket. The RN stated to the resident’s wife that the resident had been wandering into other residents’ rooms. She took the razor to dispose of it in the sharps container.”
