The facility census was 10. Findings are: Review of Resident 55's Minimum Data Set (MDS: a federally mandated comprehensive assessment tool used for care planning) dated 10/6/14 revealed this resident required extensive assistance of two people for transfers. Review of Resident 55's care plan dated 10/7/14 also revealed the resident required two assist for transfers. Review of a form titled Weekend Transfers dated 10/4/14 revealed that Resident 55 had a CVA (stroke) with left sided paralysis and was to be transferred with the EZ lift (also referred to by staff as a Hoyer Lift which is a mechanical device which uses a sling to lift individuals for transfers and repositioning). Review of an allegation of staff to resident abuse investigation dated 10/12/14 revealed that Medication Aide B (MA-B) was asked by Medication Aide C (MA-C) to assist in repositioning Resident 55 who had slid forward in the wheel chair and needed to be sat further back in the chair. According to the investigation MA-C went to find the Hoyer lift when the resident's family member requested that they just try repositioning without the lift. The repositioning was attempted without the lift and Resident 55 moved forward to the edge of the chair and had to be lowered to the floor. On 12/17/2014 at 4:40 PM Registered Nurse D confirmed that Resident 55 was to be transferred and repositioned using a Hoyer Lift and that the staff involved were re-educated on this.	2018-05-01
