Complaint Investigation
No findings

Plain-language summary

A complaint investigation found no neglect when a resident with a history of choking and difficulty swallowing died after choking on food in the dining room. The resident's care plan was followed at the time of the incident, staff provided immediate assistance and called emergency services when she was found unresponsive, and the resident had chosen to eat independently despite her medical conditions and prior choking episodes. The investigator reviewed staff interviews, medical records, facility policies, and observed meal service before concluding the allegation was not substantiated.

Full inspector notes

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 resident choked on food and passed away at the hospital. Investigative Findings and Conclusion: The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not substantiated. Although the resident choked resulting in death, the resident’s plan of care was followed at the time of the incident. When the resident was found slumped over in her chair after choking, facility staff provided immediate assistance and contacted emergency medical services. The resident died at the hospital. The investigator conducted interviews with facility staff members, including administrative staff, nursing staff, and unlicensed staff. The investigator contacted the primary care provider (PCP) and the speech language pathologist (SLP). The investigation included review of the resident record, hospital records, facility internal investigation, facility incident reports, staff schedules, law enforcement reports, and related facility policy and procedures. Also, the investigator observed meal service at the facility. The resident resided in an assisted living facility. The resident’s diagnoses included myotonic muscular dystrophy (a genetic disorder of progressive muscle weakness) and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). The resident’s service plan included assistance including dressing, grooming, toileting, and medication administration. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident could eat independently and did not need assistance. The resident did not have any dietary restrictions and had a normal diet with thin liquids. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was cognitively intact and able to make her needs known. The facility's internal investigation indicated another resident sitting at the table with the resident stated the resident was eating her hamburger and kind of "ahemmed" and put her hand up like she does sometimes when she has a hard time swallowing. They asked the resident if she was ok and she shook her head yes, they asked again if she needed help, and she shook her head yes. Another resident pressed the resident’s call pendant and went to find a staff member. Emergency medical services (EMS) reports indicated the resident was found unresponsive, and EMS provided chest compressions and removed a large amount of debris. When the resident arrived at the hospital lifesaving efforts were stopped and the resident passed away. Facility staff told EMS the resident had a history of choking, but the incidents had not been as bad as this one. Review of medical records indicated the resident had a history of choking. The resident was seen by her medical provider and speech therapist regarding concerns. Recommendations were provided to the resident to prevent choking. The resident acknowledged the recommendations and remained independent with eating. The resident was ordered a normal diet when the incident occurred. During an interview, a facility staff stated he was aware the resident had a history of choking but was not aware of any restrictions she had. The day of the incident a facility staff responded to the dining room after the emergency pull cord was activated and when he arrived there was a dietary staff member there already. A facility staff stated the resident kept bobbing forward so he tried to help hold her in her wheelchair until the nurse arrived. During an interview, a resident who witnessed the incident stated the resident had some issues with choking due to her diagnosis. The resident stated there had been a few times in the past when the resident would start choking on food and the resident had been told to raise her hands above her head so it would clear the food. During an interview, a facility nurse stated the resident didn't have any dietary restrictions. The resident wanted to make her own food decision so she'd order off the menu things she wanted to eat and would take smaller bites, cut them up, or take longer to chew things, and if she knew there were things she couldn't eat, she'd not eat those things. The nurse stated the resident had prior choking incidents in the dining room where she'd cough on different textures of food, but she'd be able to clear it on her own by putting her hands up in the air. The nurse stated the resident knew the risks and wanted to keep eating what she wanted to eat and make those choices independently. The resident’s primary care provider stated the resident was well informed of her diagnosis and her disease process could lead to choking. 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. Vulnerable Adult interviewed: No, deceased. Family/Responsible Party interviewed: Yes. Alleged Perpetrator interviewed: Not Applicable. Action taken by facility: The facility investigated the incident and reported it to MAARC. Action taken by the Minnesota Department of Health: No further action taken at this time. cc: The Office of Ombudsman for Long Term Care The Office of Ombudsman for Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities PRINTED: 11/07/2025 FORM APPROVED STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION (X3) DATE SURVEY AND PLAN OF CORRECTION IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: COMPLETED A.

Complaint Investigation
No findings

Plain-language summary

A complaint investigation found that an unlicensed staff member failed to administer insulin and check blood sugar for a resident with diabetes on one occasion, resulting in the resident's hospitalization with dangerously high blood sugar; however, the Minnesota Department of Health determined the allegation of neglect was not substantiated because the error was isolated, the resident returned to baseline health, and the staff member's actions were not the result of intentional failure to provide necessary care but rather poor time management and task prioritization during an unusually busy shift. The facility suspended the staff member and provided retraining on medication administration and time management, and no further action was taken by the department.

Full inspector notes

Finding Not Sbstantiated Nature of Investigation The Minnesota Department of Health investigated an allegation of maltreatment, in accordance with the Minnesota Reporting of Maltreatment of Vlnerable Adlts Act, Minn. Stat. 626.557, and to evalate compliance with applicable licensing standards for the provider type. Initial Investigation Allegation(s) The alleged perpetrator (AP), a facility nlicensed personnel (ULP), neglected the resident when he failed to administer schedled inslin as prescribed. As a reslt, the resident was hospitalized with high blood sgar. Investigative Findings and Conclusion The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not sbstantiated. Althogh the resident was hospitalized after the AP failed to administer inslin, the error was an isolated incident. The resident was treated for high blood sgar and retrned to their baseline health condition. The investigator condcted interviews with facility staff members, inclding administrative staff, nrsing staff, and nlicensed staff. The investigation inclded review of the resident records, hospital records, facility internal investigation docmentation, facility incident reports, personnel files, staff schedles, and related facility policies and procedres. Also, the investigator observed medication administration at the facility. The resident resided in an assisted living facility. The resident’s diagnoses inclded diabetes and chronic kidney disease. The resident’s service plan inclded assistance with blood sgar management and medication administration. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was diabetic bt did not follow a diabetic diet. The resident liked to keep ice cream in his apartment and tried to replace meals with ice cream, casing high blood sgar levels. The resident reqired assistance with inslin administration and blood sgar checks. The resident’s medication administration record (MAR) from the day of the incident, indicated the 8:00 a.m. blood sgar check was not completed de to resident refsal. The MAR indicated the resident also refsed his Hmalog (a fast-acting inslin) and Lants (a long-acting inslin) administration. The facility’s internal investigation indicated the AP did not administer the resident’s 8:00 a.m. medications, inclding inslin, or check the resident’s blood sgar, and failed to notify the RN. The medication error was not identified ntil the resident’s blood sgar was checked later that morning, and the monitor read that it was too high to be measred. The AP called the RN at 12:05 p.m. to report the high reading and was instrcted by the RN to check it again and call back. The AP called back at 12:12 p.m. and stated the reading was still high. The RN directed the AP to se a different blood sgar machine and call back with the reslt. The resident’s blood sgar reading remained high. The resident reported feeling sick, was lightly sweating, and was sent to the emergency room. After emergency room staff called the facility to verify medication administration, it was discovered that the resident’s 8:00 a.m. medications, inslin, and blood sgar check were marked as refsed. The internal investigation indicated administrative staff interviewed the AP who reported that he didn’t get to his 7:00 a.m. shift ntil 7:45 a.m. and was already behind and so he did not pass the morning medications. The resident’s medical record indicated that the day of the incident, the resident had a large bowl of ice cream for breakfast. Administrative staff members stated that after the error occrred, they reviewed what systems cold have led to the staff member feeling too rshed to complete medication administration. This inclded review of camera footage to see what the AP was doing dring the shift, analyzed service schedles, and interview with other staff who worked that day. The internal investigation indicated the AP was asked by several coworkers to help with nonrgent tasks. The AP wasn’t comfortable saying no and overetended himself trying to help everyone before completing his time sensitive tasks. Dring an interview, the AP stated the morning of the medication error, he was rnning behind on his assigned tasks. The AP stated one resident had increased aniety and took p a lot of his time. He was not able to calm the resident down and he was also asked to help with other tasks throghot the facility. The AP stated he was familiar with diabetes bt didn’t realize the resident was a type-one diabetic and thoght he wold be ok to administer the inslin a little later than schedled while he worked to catch p on his tasks. The AP stated the resident ate a large bowl of ice cream for breakfast, bt he wasn’t aware of that ntil after he obtained the high blood sgar level reading.
