Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to respond immediately to a sounding exit door alarm, failed to adequately supervise a known wandering resident (R8), failed to re-assess R8 as high risk for elopement once R8 started to exit seek, failed to develop and implement interventions and plan of care to address R8's exit-seeking behaviors after R8 attempted to exit seek, and failed investigate and report R8's elopement thoroughly for one of three residents (R8) reviewed for elopement in the sample of 41. These failures resulted in R8, a severely cognitively impaired resident with the diagnosis of Dementia, eloping from the facility approximately 70 feet from the facility, falling, and being found on the curb next to the road, after attempting to exit the building earlier that evening on 6-7-23. These failures resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy. While the immediacy was removed on 8-19-23, the facility remains out of compliance at a severity Level II as the facility continues to investigate R8's elopement on June 7, 2023, and provide a final report to IDPH within five days, provide in-servicing to all staff on R8's elopement interventions and the facility's Elopement Policy, including the Administrator/V11 upon her return to the facility on 8-21-23, residents are assessed quarterly and with a change in condition or when exhibiting exit seeking behavior for elopement risk, and each exit-seeking episode by residents will be audited by V13 (Compliance Officer) and re-education will be provided and disciplinary action for noncompliance will be given as necessary. Findings of all audits and re-education will be reported to the QAA (Quality Assurance Assessment) committee and the compliance committee on a quarterly basis and reviewed monthly by the QAPI (Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement) committee. Findings include: The facility's Resident Elopement Policy, dated 6-12-18, documents, Policy: It is the policy of this facility that all residents are afforded adequate supervision to provide the safest environment possible. All residents will be assessed for behaviors or conditions that put them at risk for elopement. All residents so identified will have these issues addressed in their individual care plans. All staff are responsible. Missing resident shall be defined as a resident who has left the main building without signing him/herself out of the facility. Residents who are at risk for elopement shall be provided at least one of the following safety precautions by the facility: Door alarms on facility exits, code alert bracelet, staff supervision of facility exits, and pictures of residents at risk for elopement will be kept at the front desk for quick identification. Elopement assessment will be done on admission, quarterly, and change in condition which puts them at risk for elopement. Residents at risk for impaired safety awareness and wandering as well as elopement shall be identified by the elopement assessment and interventions documented in the individual plan of care. Residents at risk for elopement shall be identified on the Resident Watch List with accompanying photograph as well as in the clinical record, The list shall be updated whenever new resident safety issues are identified. Photographs of each resident are located in the Medication Administration Record, face sheet, and front receptionist desk. When responding to an exterior door alarm: If a resident is found leaving the building, attempt to prevent departure. After assessing resident's behavior, nursing administration will determine the need for ever 15 minute/ever one hour documented checks. Care plan session will be held to review/modify care plan approach. Procedures for missing resident and/or elopements: Notify the Administrator. R8's Physician's Order Sheets, dated 8-1-23 through 8-31-23, document R8 has the diagnoses of Dementia without behavioral disturbance, Psychotic Disturbances, Mood Disturbance, and Anxiety. R8's MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessment, dated 6-26-23, documents R8 is severely cognitively impaired and requires supervision of one staff physical assistance for locomotion of and on the unit and walking in his room and in the corridor, and requires extensive assistance of one person physical assistance for transfers. R8's PASRR (Preadmission Screening and Resident Review), dated 4-2-22, documents, You know who you are but you do not know where you are, why the time, or date.

Combativeness, elopement attempts, and resisting redirection from staff behaviors exhibited prior to elopement. New onset of agitation, resistiveness, and restlessness. Resident was laying on ground next to road by cottages on his side. He was picking flowers in the grass. R8's Progress notes, dated 6-7-23 at 7:05 PM and signed by V3, documents, (R8) has an unwitnessed fall following an elopement. (R8) exited the unit through the south door of (facility unit). (R8) was found laying on his side in the grass with his walker next to him. He has no complaints of pain. Assessment showed no injuries. (R8) was wearing shoes in good repair and was using his walker. (R8) was found by nurse and CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) (V8) who used (mechanical lift) to get (R8) off the ground and into his wheelchair. Placed resident next to nurses station and placed on 15 minute checks. R8 did not have a comprehensive care plan developed regarding R8's wandering, exit-seeking, or elopement until 7-3-23 (26 days after R8's elopement). R8 did not have an elopement risk assessment completed once R8 started exhibiting exit-seeking behaviors, as directed by the facility's resident elopement policy, until 6-21-23 (14 days after R8's elopement). On 08/14/23 at 10:44 AM, R8 was in his bed. R8 was unable to answer where he was, what time of day it was, or what day it was. On 8-14-23 at 2:10 PM, V3 (RN) stated, On 6-7-23, (R8) has having behaviors and trying to exit-seek. (R8) had exited around 5:30 PM and was found between the double doors of the east exit. (R8) was confused and combative and did not have his walker. I had to get his walker and take (R8) back to his room. I left for supper break and told the CNA's to keep a close eye on (R8) because he was trying to exit-seek. When I came back from the supper break, I heard the end of the south side door alarm going off. None of the staff were responding to the alarm. I went and answered the alarm and asked the staff where (R8) was. Nobody knew where (R8) was. I went outside and found (R8) outside by the road, laying on the curb, between the two cottage buildings. (R8) had fell (sic) to the ground with his walker beside him. I got him up and helped him back inside. I did not notify the Administrator (V11) or Director of Nursing (V1) of (R8's) elopement. On 8-15-23 at 11:45 AM, V7 (CNA) stated, I was on break when (R8) went outside unattended on 6-7-23. I did not know (R8) had tried to exit earlier that night. I am not sure who found (R8) outside or if anything was done to monitor (R8) afterwards. On 8-15-23 at 12:15 PM, V8 (Agency CNA) stated, I was working contract at the facility and did not know (R8) very well. I did not know (R8) had tried to exit-seek earlier that night (on 6-7-23). (V3/RN) did not tell me that (R8) had tried to exit earlier, and did not tell me to monitor (R8) closely. Sometime around 7:00 PM, (V3) yelled at me and said she needed help because (R8) was outside and had fell (sic). I went outside with (V3) and (R8) had fell over the curb and was laying on the curb by the road. Me and (V3) had to use the mechanical lift to get (R8) back up off the ground and into a wheelchair. (R8) was not hurt. I wheeled (R8) back into the building. I am not aware of (R8) being put on 15 minute checks afterwards. I did not hear the exit-alarm sounding when (R8) went outside because I was in a room with another resident. On 8-15-23 at 12:40 PM, V9 (CNA) stated, On 6-7-23 I came to work at 6:30 PM. I did not know (R8) had try to exit earlier that night (on 6-7-23). I heard an alarm going off and thought it was the alarm where the residents who smoke go outside. I did not realize (R8) had eloped. On 8-14-23 at 2:00 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, I did not report to IDPH (Illinois Department of Public Health) when (R8) eloped. I was not told that (R8) had gotten outside unattended, so no investigation was done. I only was told (R8) had tried to exit. There were no exit-seeking or elopement interventions implemented or an elopement risk assessment completed once (R8) started to exit-seek on 6-7-23. The Immediate Jeopardy was identified to have started on June 7, 2023, when the facility failed to provide adequate supervision and implement elopement interventions after R8 was found attempting to exit-seek around 5:30 PM and then later that night around 7:00 PM R8 eloped from the facility approximately 70 feet from the facility, falling, and being found on the curb next to the road, unattended by staff. V1 (Director of Nursing/DON) was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 8-16-23 at 12:10 PM. The surveyor confirmed through observation, interview, and record review that the facility took the following actions to remove the Immediate Jeopardy: 1. All staff who were working 8-16-23 through 8-19-23 were educated by V14 (Education Coordinator) on the facility's Elopement Policy including assessing residents for elopement risk, response to alarms and elopement attempts and when to implement elopement interventions once the resident starts to exit-seek, and R8's specific elopement interventions including moving R8 to a room near the nurses station, doing hourly rounding of R8's location, applying an electronic monitoring bracelet to R8's ankle, and including R8's name on the facility's elopement risk list. 2. V14 educated V15 (Associate Administrator), V1 (DON), and V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing/ADON) regarding the Resident Elopement Policy including assessing residents for elopement risk, investigation and reporting requirements, response to an elopement attempt/when to implement elopement interventions once the resident starts to exit-seek, and reviewed R8's elopement interventions. 3. V1 (DON) submitted an initial report to IDPH regarding R8's elopement. 4. V1 (DON), V2 (ADON) and V12 (Resident Care Coordinator) reviewed R8's elopement interventions, and R8's elopement care plan was updated on 8-16-23 to include moving R8 to a room near the nurses' station, doing hourly rounding of R8's location, applying an electronic monitoring bracelet to R8's ankle, and including R8's name on the facility's elopement risk list. 5. All residents at risk for elopement were placed on hourly staff monitoring and nurses documented the rounding on the electronic medication administration records.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the facility's COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) Infection Prevention and Control Program policy was followed, failed to screen all staff for COVID-19 symptoms before the start of their scheduled shifts, filed to remove symptomatic employees from work immediately, failed to test and quarantine employees who had symptoms of COVID-19 immediately, and failed isolate residents who were unvaccinated or not up to date with the COVID-19 vaccination immediately after exposure to COVID-19 positive employees. These failure affected 24 of 24 residents (R4, R7, R12, R20, R22, R26, R38, R45, R49, R51, R63, R64, R72, R83, R85, R87, R88, R90, R91, R93, R94, R100, R107, R256) reviewed for COVID-19 infection control procedures in the sample of 60. These failures resulted in numerous symptomatic COVID-19 positive staff working directly with residents, resulting in an outbreak of COVID-19 within the facility and 24 residents developing symptomatic COVID-19 (a severe acute respiratory syndrome). These failures resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy. While the immediacy was removed on 9-8-22, the facility remains out of compliance at a severity Level II as the facility continues to screen and audit to ensure employees screen prior to their shift for COVID-19, test employees and residents who are symptomatic for COVID-19 immediately, remove employees from the facility immediately who have symptoms of COVID-19, isolate residents who are not up to date with the COVID-19 vaccination or are unvaccinated and have direct contact with anyone who is COVID-19 positive, in-service staff on the facility's COVID-19 Infection Prevention and Control Program policy, and report audits/findings to the Quality Assurance Committee monthly. Findings include: The facility's COVID-19 Infection Prevention and Control Program policy, dated 3-22-22, documents, Description: (The facility) has developed a COVID-19 infection prevention and control program to decrease the risk of residents and staff becoming infected with SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2), the virus that causes COVID-19. Nursing homes have been severely impacted by COVID-19, with outbreaks causing high rates of infection, morbidity, and mortality. The vulnerable nature of the nursing home population combined with the inherent risks of congregate living in a healthcare setting, requires aggressive efforts to limit COVID-19 exposure and to prevent the spread of COVID-19 within nursing homes. Policy: It is the policy of (the facility) to implement COVID-19 infection prevention and control policies and procedures under the recommendation and guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), (State agency), and the (Local Health Department/ACHD) to decrease the risk of COVID-19 transmission to our residents. Leadership Responsibilities: Administrative Leadership- Responsibilities: to develop, implement, and oversee the facility COVID-19 Infection Prevention and Control policies and procedures, to stay current on changes and updates to any provided guidance from the state and federal governing authorities to delegate facility departmental tasks to adhere to changes in restrictions and infection control precautions, to communicate with ACHD and governing authorities as needed and requested. B. Nursing Leadership- Responsibilities: to oversee and implement COVID-19 Infection Prevention and Control policies and procedures for all direct care staff, to stay current on changes and updates to any provided guidance from the state and federal governing authorities requested, review and store all infection control logs for staff screenings, resident screenings, and infection totals, to ensure an appropriate amount of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is available, report infection control information in the daily standup meetings, and as necessary. Testing Plan and Response Strategy: The occurrence and frequency of all future testing will be based upon the results of facility testing, changes in the surrounding community, and the current requirements of state and federal authorities. All future testing will be completed using a contracted testing laboratory (PCR/Polymerase Chain Reaction testing) and/or point-of-care testing. Although PCR testing remains the gold standard for testing, point-of-care antigen (rapid) testing is acceptable. A. When to test: Symptomatic residents and/or staff regardless of vaccination status (testing should take place immediately.) D. Confirmed Positive Tests: If COVID-19 testing results in positive cases of COVID-19 amongst staff and/or residents, the appropriate protocols will be followed to decrease the spread of illness. All confirmed cases will be reported to ACHD and CDC. Employees- Any employee who tests positive or is suspicious for having COVID-19 will immediately leave the facility and follow the instructions from their medical provider and/or health department. E. Facility Response to a Positive Test (Investigation): Affected Neighborhoods (exposed)- If resident is asymptomatic and not up to date and are considered to be a close contact to the individual who tested positive, room quarantine for 14 days even if testing negative. Staff should wear full PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) when providing care to this resident (N95, eye protection, gown, and gloves). Interventions: Employee Screenings- Employees will need to screen at the beginning of each shift using a checklist-based screening protocol in written format. All symptomatic employees must be immediately removed from the resident area, receive a SARS-CoV-2 rapid test, and sent home. If rapid antigen test is positive, please see confirmed positive tests for employees for further guidance. If rapid antigen test is negative, employee must receive a confirmatory SARS-CoV-2 PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) test and will be restricted from work pending result. Screenings will check for COVID-19 infection criteria in accordance with the CDC. Vaccinations and Vaccine Boosters: COVID-19 vaccinations and vaccine boosters will be offered to all consenting and eligible employees and residents onsite at scheduled dates and times through the [NAME] County Health Department. Additional vaccination locations will be shared with employees as they become available. (The facility) will continue to provide educations and promote the vaccination to all staff, residents, and families who are not up to date. The CDC COVID-19 Data Tracker, dated 8-29-22 through 9-6-22, documents COVID-19 Community Level of contracting COVID-19 as High for [NAME] County Illinois (the county the facility is within). The CDC's Interim Infection Prevention and Control Recommendations for Healthcare Personnel During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic, dated 2-2-22, documents, Establish a process to identify anyone entering the facility, regardless of their vaccination status, who has any of the following three criteria so that they can be properly managed: A positive viral test for SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Two) symptoms of COVID-19, close contact with someone with SARS-CoV-2 infection, or a higher-risk exposure (for healthcare personnel (HCP). Options could include (but are not limited to): individual screening on arrival at the facility; or implementing an electronic monitoring system in which individuals can self-report any of the above before entering the facility. HCP should report any of the 3 above criteria to occupational health or another point of contact designated by the facility, even if they are up to date with all recommended COVID-19 vaccine doses. Recommendations for evaluation and work restriction of these HCP are in the Interim Guidance for Managing Healthcare Personnel with SARS-CoV-2 Infection or Exposure to SARS-CoV-2. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) Interim Infection Prevention and Control Recommendations to Prevent SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus two) Spread in Nursing Homes Nursing Homes & Long-Term Care Facilities website, dated 2-2-22, documents, Manage residents who had close contact with someone with SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Residents who are not up to date with all recommended COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) vaccine doses and who have had close contact with someone with SARS-CoV-2 infection should be placed in quarantine after their exposure, even if viral testing is negative. HCP (Health Care Personnel) caring for them should use full PPE (gowns, gloves, eye protection, and N95 or higher-level respirator). Residents can be removed from Transmission-Based Precautions after day 10 following the exposure if they do not develop symptoms. Residents can be removed from Transmission-Based Precautions after day 7 following the exposure if a viral test is negative for SARS-CoV-2 and they do not develop symptoms. 1.

I did not know that residents who are unvaccinated or not up to date with the COVID-19 vaccination are to be isolated once coming into contact with anyone symptomatic or testing positive of COVID-19.
