One (1) of thirty-three (33) sample residents was affected; however, the practice had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. Resident identifier: #37. Facility census: 61. a) Resident #37 In an interview, on 04/24/12 at 8:54 a.m., Resident #37 stated she was moved to another room without prior notice. She stated, They just came in and moved me. Review of the medical record, on 04/25/12 at 1:30 p.m., revealed no evidence the resident was notified of this room change. The administrator (Employee #100) was informed of this finding. A request for the facility's policy and procedure for room transfers was made at that time. At 5:00 p.m., a form entitled Notification of Room/Roommate Change was provided by Employee #100. This employee stated he did not have a policy/procedure, just the form. On 04/25/12 at 8:00 a.m., Employee #100 stated he had obtained the policy entitled Room to Room Transfers from corporate headquarters. A review of this policy revealed the following: Policy Interpretation and Implementation 1. The facility reserves . 2. Unless medically necessary . 3.

On 04/26/12 at 9:50 a.m., an interview was conducted with the administrator (Employee #100) and the social worker (Employee #78). Employee #78 was asked if he had information regarding Resident #37's room change on 04/18/12. He stated he would investigate the matter. Employee #100 stated he had sent a letter to all residents, family members, and responsible parties on 04/13/12 explaining new construction in the facility and the need to move residents to different rooms. He stated, All efforts are being made to contact the families and to notify the residents prior to the room changes. On 04/26/12 at 11:00 a.m., Employee #78 stated he could produce no evidence he had notified Resident #37, or any other resident, of the room moves as stated in the Room to Room Transfers policy. He stated he notified environmental services and the business office. The administrator (Employee #100) agreed facility policy had not been followed. | 2016-02-01 |
