32 | According to an interview with S1, S1 stated that R1's RP wanted R1 to go to the hospital because R1's bed was uncomfortable. S1 stated that it was not a medical emergency so we could not send R1 out. S1 checked the video footage and S1 did not see anyone ever ask the staff to send R1 out.
LPA Valerio reviewed two incident reports received from the facility.
Incident 1, dated 10/01/2025, stated R1's POA dropped resident off at the facility after R1 being out for the day. POA then came barging into the med room about R1 not sleeping in R1's bed. POA then started hollering at the med techs accusing them of not doing their job and stating R1 needed a new bed right now or R1 needs to go to the hospital. Med techs kindly explained to POA that they are not able to switch beds and to reach out to the administrator. POA was noted to take R1 to the emergency room. R1 came back at 7:52AM on 10/02/2025 from the hospital with a dx of pain in lower extremities and physical deconditioning. Staff noted on the incident report that the R1's bed has been switched out 3 times, 2 different hospital beds, and a regular bed, which R1 did not like. R1 has been up and about today. No complaints of pain or discomfort in R1's legs.
LPA Valerio reviewed hospital after visit summary dated 10/01/2025. LPA Valerio confirmed the information that was relayed on the incident report was also stated on the after summary.
Incident 2, dated 10/02/2025, stated R1's POA stated POA was coming down to the facility to pick up the resident to take R1 to the hospital since POA did not feel comfortable leaving R1 at the facility due to the lack of a comfortable bed and feels POA would be neglecting R1 if R1 is left at the facility. POA took R1 out of the facility at 7:00 PM. On the incident report, staff indicated that there were no medical needs mentioned. According to staff, "resident prefers to sleep in recliner and PCP sent [doctors] orders for resident to sleep in recliner on 10/03/2025." Staff indicated that R1's case manager reached out to the facility stating the ER wants to discharge R1 but are holding R1 until alternative placement is found."
