Staff do not ensure that resident's bed is in good working order.
It was alleged that resident #1 (R1) hospital electric bed has roll up on top of them like an accordion three (03) times. During physical plant tour LPA inspected resident #1 (R1) hospital electric bed. R1 demonstrated how the bed operates. R1 indicated that bed is working correct and did not know why the bed was not rolling up like an accordion. LPA inspected and checked the operation of the bed in R1’s room and did not observe the bed rolling up. ED interview revealed that R1 never reported that the bed rolled up on top of them. ED insists that the bed is adjustable for changing the resident or setting it for positioning. Maintenance Director interview revealed that R1 did not notify facility staff regarding bed rolling up on top of them like an accordion. Residents interview revealed their hospital bed only moves when they press a button on the remote control their beds are in good working order and had no issues. Staff interviews confirm the information provided by ED and Maintenance Director.
Based on interviews and observations, there is not enough sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time.
No health and safety hazards were noted during the visit.
Exit interview was conducted and a copy of the report was issued.
