A resident with dementia and impaired cognition was found deceased after becoming entangled in a walker's basket, which was supposed to be stored at the nursing station when not in use. The care plan was not updated to reflect the resident's non-ambulatory status, and the walker was left in the room, leading to the fatal incident. Staff were unaware of the requirement to remove the walker due to discrepancies between the care plan and the Kardex.
Failure to Remove Walker Leads to Resident's Death
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a resident's environment was free from accident hazards, leading to a fatal incident. The resident, who had diagnoses including dementia and severely impaired cognition, was care planned to have their walker stored at the nursing station when not in use. However, the walker was left in the resident's room, and the resident was found entangled in the walker's basket after falling from bed, resulting in their death. The care plan was not updated to reflect the resident's non-ambulatory status, and the walker was not removed from the room as required. The facility's policies on accident prevention and care plan updating were not followed. The resident's care plan documented the need for the walker to be stored away, but this intervention was not transferred to the Kardex, which staff used for immediate care instructions. The Kardex did not reflect the resident's current status or the necessary interventions, leading to staff being unaware of the requirement to remove the walker. The resident's environment was not managed to be free of hazards, contributing to the incident. Interviews with staff revealed a lack of communication and process for updating care plans and Kardexes. The Licensed Practical Nurse Manager responsible for updating care plans did not ensure the interventions were transferred to the Kardex, and there was no system alert for failed transfers. The Occupational Therapist discontinued the resident's ambulation goal but did not ensure the walker was removed from the room. The Director of Nursing and other staff were unaware of the discrepancies between the care plan and the Kardex, which ultimately led to the resident's death by strangulation.
