Finding: Not Substantiated Nature of Investigation: The Minnesota Department of Health investigated an allegation of maltreatment, in accordance with the Minnesota Reporting of Maltreatment of Vulnerable Adults Act, Minn. Stat. 626.557, and to evaluate compliance with applicable licensing standards for the provider type. Initial Investigation Allegation(s): The facility neglected the resident when the facility failed to address a change in condition. The resident had significant weight gain resulting in decreased mobility, heart health, and breathing concerns. Investigative Findings and Conclusion: The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not substantiated. The resident had gained weight continuously over six months after admitting to the facility. The facility notified the resident’s primary care provider and psychiatrist. The primary care provider ordered blood tests, made referrals to outside specialists, and notified psychiatry for medication adjustments. The investigator conducted interviews with facility staff members, including administrative staff and nursing staff. The investigator contacted the resident’s primary care provider. The investigation included review of the resident records, staff schedules, and related facility policy and procedures. Also, the investigator toured the facility and observed interactions between facility staff and residents. The resident resided in an assisted living facility. The resident’s diagnoses included attention-deficit hyperactivity disorders, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, conversion disorder, borderline personality disorder, and anxiety. The resident’s service plan included assistance with management of repetitive behaviors, medication administration, and monthly weights. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was alert, oriented and was independent with activities of daily living. The resident’s medical record indicated the resident gained 72 pounds in a four-month span. The primary care provider ordered tests and no known cause for the weight gain could be determined. The resident’s medical record indicated the resident’s Abilify (antipsychotic) medication was discontinued due to being a possible contributing factor for the resident’s weight gain. During an interview, leadership stated the resident’s primary care provider was notified of the resident’s weight gain approximately 14 days after the resident admitted to the facility. The primary care provider ordered blood tests in an attempt to find out why the resident gained weight, and the resident was started on Lasix (loop diuretic) for swelling in her legs. The resident’s Abilify medication was discontinued because providers thought the medication may have been a factor in the resident’s weight gain. In house providers continue to monitor the resident’s weight gain. During an interview, a primary care provider stated the resident’s weight gain was a concern. Several blood tests and referrals to several specialists were made. Test results indicated it was actual weight gain and was not fluid retention related issues. The primary care provider stated weight gain is a side effect of antipsychotic medications, and the psychiatrist was notified. The psychiatrist made adjustments to the resident’s antipsychotic medications. During an interview, the resident stated it is unknown why she gained weight. In conclusion, the Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not substantiated. “Not Substantiated” means: An investigatory conclusion indicating the preponderance of evidence shows that an act meeting the definition of maltreatment did not occur. Neglect: Minnesota Statutes, section 626.5572, subdivision 17 “Neglect” means neglect by a caregiver or self-neglect. (a) "Caregiver neglect" means the failure or omission by a caregiver to supply a vulnerable adult with care or services, including but not limited to, food, clothing, shelter, health care, or supervision which is: (1) reasonable and necessary to obtain or maintain the vulnerable adult's physical or mental health or safety, considering the physical and mental capacity or dysfunction of the vulnerable adult; and (2) which is not the result of an accident or therapeutic conduct.

Finding: Not Substantiated Nature of Investigation: The Minnesota Department of Health investigated an allegation of maltreatment, in accordance with the Minnesota Reporting of Maltreatment of Vulnerable Adults Act, Minn. Stat. 626.557, and to evaluate compliance with applicable licensing standards for the provider type. Initial Investigation Allegation(s): The facility neglected the resident when they failed to provide the resident supervision when the resident eloped from the facility by breaking and climbing out a window in the resident’s room. Investigative Findings and Conclusion: The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not substantiated. Facility staff could not anticipate the resident breaking and climbing out the window in her room. Staff immediately responded to the resident and with the assistance of law enforcement stayed with the resident until emergency medical services arrived. The investigator conducted interviews with facility staff members, including administrative staff, nursing staff, and unlicensed staff. The investigator contacted the resident’s case worker. The investigation included review of the resident records, hospital records, facility internal investigation, facility incident reports, and the law enforcement report. Also, the investigator observed the locked memory care unit and locked fenced courtyard area. The resident resided in an assisted living memory care unit. The resident’s diagnoses included dementia and anxiety disorder. The resident’s service plan included assistance with medication management services. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was oriented to person, place, required redirection and reminders often, and walked independently without assisted devices. The facility’s investigation indicated earlier in the day, the resident was agitated and tried to “escape” out of a patio area. Facility staff provided the resident as needed medication for agitation and brought the resident to her room to calm. Approximately one hour later, the resident broke the window in her room and climbed out. Staff immediately called 911, followed the resident, and controlled traffic as the resident crossed a busy street. Staff stayed with the resident until law enforcement arrived. The law enforcement report indicated law enforcement arrived at a gas station shortly after the facility called and found the resident surrounded by facility staff members. The resident had a laceration (cut) on her right wrist and small cuts on her left arm and wrist. The resident denied living at the facility and said she did know why facility staff were following her. The resident was transported to a hospital for an evaluation. In the resident’s room, it appeared the resident used a stand to a lamp and broke her ground level window. The resident’s hospital record indicated the resident arrived at the hospital agitated and confused. The resident was evaluated by physiatry and admitted to a locked unit and placed on a 72-hour hold. The resident had superficial scratches to her right hand and left arm. The resident had a laceration on her right forearm that was closed with stiches. Seven days later, the resident discharged to another inpatient unit at a different hospital. During an interview, unlicensed personnel (ULP) stated the day of the incident, the staff member who was working in memory care came out yelling, “help, help, I need help.” The resident had just broken the window in her room, climbed out, and was running across the street. The ULP stated staff contacted 911 for assistance. The ULP and kitchen staff ran outside and controlled traffic as the resident crossed a busy street. The ULP stated at a gas station, staff stayed with the resident until law enforcement arrived. During investigative interviews, multiple nurses stated staff were trained and provided interventions for the resident’s known agitation and exit seeking behaviors. The resident had no previous incidents of breaking a window to leave. Staff interventions for agitation included redirection and distraction. At times, staff were directed to bring the resident to her room to calm. One nurse stated the resident’s as needed medication for agitation increased during her stay. During an interview, leadership stated earlier in the shift the resident was agitated and wanted to leave. Staff distracted her, shut memory care window blinds, and had the resident sit in her room attempting to calm her. While in her room, the resident broke the window and climbed out. Leadership stated the memory care staff heard the noise of the window breaking and called another staff member not in memory care for help. Facility staff members rushed outside to assist the resident. The resident had a history of agitation however, the resident had no previous attempts of breaking a window to leave the facility. Leadership stated staff interventions for the resident’s agitation included distraction and at times various facility staff members provided one-on-one to calm her. These interventions had previously been effective. Leadership stated throughout the resident’s stay at the facility, they also increased doses of the resident’s as needed medication for agitation. The resident did not return to the facility after the incident.
