2024-10-14Complaint Investigation1 · Substantiated Finding
Plain-language summary
A complaint investigation found the facility neglected a resident by failing to provide required two-hour safety checks and toileting assistance during overnight shifts, resulting in two falls in one night where the resident lay on the floor for unknown periods of time. Staff interviews revealed the facility often scheduled only two staff members at night and sometimes documented residents as refusing services rather than providing them; the resident was later hospitalized with dehydration, atrial fibrillation, and high blood sugars and was moved to another facility by his family due to safety concerns. The investigation could not substantiate whether the facility's heating issues contributed to the hospitalization, but the neglect finding was based on the failure to provide care-planned supervision.
“MDH substantiated maltreatment or licensing violation finding”
Full inspector notes
Finding: Substantiated, facility responsibility 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 a resident when they failed to provide adequate monitoring and supervision according to the resident’s assessed needs and service plan. As a result, the resident fell two times one night while unsupervised. In addition, the facility failed to maintain the resident’s apartment at normal temperatures and as a result required hospitalization. Investigative Findings and Conclusion: The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was substantiated. The facility was responsible for the maltreatment. Facility staff failed to provide the resident with his care planned every two-hour safety check and toileting assistance. The resident fell twice in one night and was on the floor for an unknown amount of time. The Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was not substantiated. It could not be determined if the resident’s apartment heating issues contributed to the resident’s hospitalization. The investigator conducted interviews with facility staff members, including administrative staff, nursing staff, and unlicensed staff. The investigator interviewed family members. The investigation included review of the resident record(s), in-house provider’s records, death record, hospital records, facility incident reports, personnel files, staff schedules, and related facility policy and procedures. Also, the investigator observed resident and staff interactions during her onsite visit. The resident resided in an assisted living memory care facility and lived there for seven days until he was admitted to the hospital. The resident’s diagnoses included Lewy body dementia, syncope (dizziness), impaired gait, and mobility. The resident’s service plan included every two-hour safety check, reorientation checks, cueing, and toileting assistance several times during the day and overnight shifts. During the overnight shift, the resident required two-hour checks for frequent wandering. The resident had difficulty communicating but was able to make his needs known. The resident’s assessment indicated he was at high risk for falls and required fall safety checks but only listed “clear path and proper footwear” as his fall reduction plan. The resident was moderately disoriented to person, place, or time and was unable to use the facility’s call system. The resident’s progress note indicated late one evening., approximately 34 hours after the resident was admitted to the facility, the resident was found on the floor in a vacant apartment lying on his right side. The resident was assessed for injuries and assisted back to his apartment. It was unknown how long the resident laid on the floor before staff found him. The resident’s record indicated the resident fell again five hours later. The resident was found lying on a bathroom floor in another resident’s apartment. The resident was unable to verbalize what happened. It was unknown how long the resident laid on the floor. Review of the resident’s service check-off list (services provided to the resident) indicated the resident did not receive any of his scheduled services including every two-hour safety check, frequent wandering checks, and toileting assistance. Four days after the resident’s falls, the resident was hospitalized with dehydration, atrial fibrillation, and high blood sugars. The resident spent four days in the hospital and was discharged to a rehabilitation center to regain his strength. During an interview, a facility staff member stated the resident was frequently awake at night and required a lot of staff assistance. The staff member stated the majority of the time, the facility scheduled only two staff at night and the staff member recalled times when they were the only staff person working the overnight shift. During an interview, another staff member stated services were sometimes not provided to the residents because there was not enough staff. The staff member stated sometimes staff would document the resident refused services instead of performing the services. During an interview, a nurse stated the resident’s family was concerned about the lack of staff and the resident’s recent falls. The nurse stated they encouraged the resident’s family to find another facility for the resident. The nurse stated the facility had no formal way of communicating stating there was little communication with staff. During an interview, leadership stated the resident’s family member moved the resident out of the facility because of concerns the facility was unable to meet the resident’s needs. Leadership stated staffing levels were based on resident census, stating they met their minimum requirements of scheduling two staff during the overnight shift. Leadership stated they looked at a resident’s “tendencies” for overnight staffing. Leadership stated the facility’s acuity level was higher than a normal assisted living facility because it was all memory care. During an interview, a family member stated the resident required supervision for most of his cares and stated she became alarmed when the resident fell twice in one night. The family member was concerned whether resident received enough supervision and questioned if the facility was able to meet the resident’s need or keep him safe. In conclusion, the Minnesota Department of Health determined neglect was substantiated. Substantiated: Minnesota Statutes, section 626.5572, Subdivision 19. “Substantiated” means a preponderance of evidence shows that an act that meets the definition of maltreatment occurred. 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. the resident is deceased. Family/Responsible Party interviewed: Yes. Alleged Perpetrator interviewed: Not Applicable. He Action taken by facility: The facility repaired the resident’s apartment heat after the resident was sent to the hospital. Action taken by the Minnesota Department of Health: The responsible party will be notified of their right to appeal the maltreatment finding. The facility was found to be in noncompliance.

2023-08-11Complaint InvestigationNo findings
Plain-language summary
The Minnesota Department of Health investigated a complaint that a staff member forcefully administered medication to a resident by placing hands on the resident's face. The investigation concluded abuse was inconclusive due to insufficient evidence—the resident could not be interviewed because of cognitive impairment, video footage had an obstructed view, and accounts from the staff member and facility manager differed from the allegation. The facility was found in noncompliance, the staff member is no longer employed there, and families can review the correction orders online.
