- Failure to Ensure That Every Resident Remains Free from Physical Restraints Unless Need for Medical Treatment – citation #F221 date March 1, 2017
According to investigators, “the facility failed to ensure [a resident] was free from the use of physical restraints [when the resident] was restrained to a wheelchair with the use of a gait belt.” The facility identified “for residents in the facility that currently display behaviors.”
The resident involved in the investigation had been admitted to the facility with a terminal prognosis and died at the facility “under hospice care.” A Nursing Note revealed that the resident “was documented as being very agitated, restless and combative.” The hospice nurse was given an order to provide antianxiety medication.
The investigators reviewed the Closed Medical Record that revealed: “no documentation of [the resident] being placed in restraints, or any order or consent for restraints was found.” The Social Services Director stated that he helped in Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) restrain the resident “with a gait belt after he became agitated, restless and aggressive.” The Director stated that he had witnessed the resident “get out of the Geri-chair, grabbed his wife and then sat on the floor.”
The Social Services Director reported that the LPN indicated she did not know what to do and instructed a State-Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) “to retrieve another resident’s reclining chair” where they fasten the seatbelt around the resident who “was still trying to get out of the wheelchair.”
Documentation shows that the LPN asked the Social Services Directed to hold the resident while the LPN “placed a gait belt around the resident’s chest.” The Director then left the facility returned two hours later and saw that the gait belt had not been unlatched to release the resident. Upon notification of what had transpired, the administration terminated the LPNs employment and gave written reprimands to the Social Services Director and STNA.
The Ohio Department of Health surveyor questioned the Director of Nursing “about a resident being restrained. The Director of Nursing denied ever seeing a resident being restrained.” The Administrator stated that the Social Services Director was given a final notice “for assisting with an act that breaches company policy” as defined in the Worksite Employee Warning Notice.
Both the Director of Nursing and Administrator “both confirmed that [the resident] was restrained with a gait belt inappropriately and without Physician’s orders” as required by law.
