2024-02-01Complaint InvestigationType B · 1 finding
Plain-language summary
A complaint investigation at Bay Vista Commons on January 8, 2024 found that the facility's policy was to call the fire department rather than have staff lift residents from the floor, which placed one resident at risk of not having their care needs met safely. The investigation confirmed that on December 11, 2023, a resident who was unable to get up from the bathroom floor was assisted by fire department personnel instead of facility staff. The facility was cited for failing to develop policies and procedures to ensure residents could be safely lifted by staff in the event of a fall.
“The facility failed to develop and implement policies and procedures to safely lift residents from the floor in the event of a fall without relying on outside emergency services. A resident who was unable to get up from the bathroom floor after an episode of incontinence required the fire department to be called for assistance, placing the resident at risk of harm.”
