CFOP 155-26 STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES TALLAHASSEE, August 1, 2011 Mental Health/Substance Abuse SAFE

AND SUPPORTIVE OBSERVATIONS OF RESIDENTS Guidelines for Healthcare Staff in Mental Health Treatment Facilities 1. Purpose. This operating procedure describes guidelines for observing individuals who are at risk for harming themselves or others. 2. Scope. This operating procedure applies to individuals hospitalized in state mental health treatment facilities, whether operated by the Department of Children and Families or by contract with private entities. The operating procedure does not apply to the Florida Civil Commitment Center. 3. References. a. Chapter 394, Florida Statutes (F.S.), Florida Mental Health Act. b. Chapter 916, F.S., Forensic Client Services Act. c. Chapter 65E-20, Florida Administrative Code, Forensic Client Services Act Regulation. d. Jennings, A. (2004), The Damaging Consequences of Violence and Trauma: Facts, Discussion Points, and Recommendations for the Behavioral Health System, Alexandria, Virginia, National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors, National Technical Assistance Center for State Mental Health Planning. e. Section 65E-5.602, Florida Administrative Code, Rights of Residents of State Mental Health Treatment Facilities. 4. Definitions. For purposes of this operating procedure, the following definitions apply: a. Clinician. A Physician licensed pursuant to Chapter 458 or Chapter 459, F.S. or Advanced Registered nurse Practitioner (ARNP) licensed pursuant to Chapter 464 F.S b. Clinical Risk Assessment Guide (CRAG). The CRAG is located in Appendix A to this operating procedure. This guide provides some basic areas to consider and report on when assessing a residents risk of harm to self or others in the facility. The CRAG also includes some items related to medical risks. The guide is an adjunctive tool which, in some cases, may assist clinicians in developing a more broad-based review of a residents status. The tool may also assist with tracking issues related to risk which need to be in recovery plans. The CRAG is employed at the discretion of clinicians or as directed in facility based policy. c. Key Indicators. Signs or symptoms associated with, but not limited to, aggression, assault, suicidality, self-injury, homicidal ideation or behavior, arson, escape/elopement, seizures, falling, and difficulty swallowing. The indicators direct staff toward the need to implement special observation and precautions.

CFOP 155-26

d. Recovery Team. An assigned group of individuals with specific responsibilities identified on the recovery plan including the resident, psychiatrist, guardian/guardian advocate (if resident has a guardian/guardian advocate), community case manager, family member and other treatment professionals as determined by the residents needs, goals, and preferences. Other treatment professionals may include but are not limited to psychologists, behavior analysts, and social workers. e. Resident. A person who receives services in a state mental health treatment facility. The term is synonymous with client, consumer, individual, patient, or person served. f. Special Observation and Precautions. (1) Observations consist of Routine Observation, Close Observation, Group Observation, One-to-One (1:1) Observation, and Two-to-One (2:1) Observation. (2) Precautions consist of any actions needed to maintain safety during observations. Examples of precautions are searching a bed area for harmful items, searching a resident for harmful items, restriction to a ward, determining the number of staff needed to observe the resident, establishing the proximity of staff to the resident, following a Personal Safety Plan (form CF-MH 3124, available in DCF Forms) to employ calming strategies. g. Trauma-Informed Care. Trauma-informed care is mental health treatment directed by a thorough understanding of the profound neurological, biological, psychological and social effects of trauma and violence on an individual, and an appreciation for the high prevalence of traumatic experiences in persons who receive mental health services. Trauma-informed care is based on an understanding of the vulnerabilities and triggers of trauma survivors that traditional service delivery approaches may not recognize and may exacerbate. 5. Levels of Observation. a. Routine Observation. This level of observation consists of visual observation which is not the result of a special written order in a residents medical record. It involves at least thirty (30)-minute face checks completed by direct care staff in settings which residents generally occupy such as bedrooms, wards, pods, restrooms, dining rooms, activity rooms, classrooms, and enclosed yards attached to buildings. Supervisors will ensure that staff members are vigilant and aware of each residents whereabouts and status. Exceptions for some residents occur at times as they accept greater responsibilities, gain unescorted freedom of movement, and have time away from routine observation. Each facility will maintain Residential Area Coverage Sheets (Appendix B to this operating procedure) on a daily basis. b. Close Observation (CO). This level of observation requires that staff monitor a persons condition, location, and/or behavior every 15 minutes. The person is not continually watched, and this procedure should be used for issues of a less than serious nature where Routine Observation would not be frequent enough, and 1:1 observation would be too intensive. Close observation will occur in settings residents generally occupy such as bedrooms, wards, pods, restrooms, dining rooms, activity rooms, classrooms, and enclosed yards attached to buildings. Close observation consists of visual observation which is the result of a special written order in a residents medical record. Supervisors will ensure that staff members are vigilant and aware of each residents whereabouts and status. Authorization for Close Observation is by clinician order as defined in this operating procedure. This level of observation must be reviewed and renewed at least every seven (7) days and include a faceto-face examination by a clinician. The clinician will document whether changes have occurred, note additional concerns, if any, write a new order and document justification for continuation or discontinuation of an order. c. Group Observation (GO). This level of observation requires a staff member to remain within visual contact and close proximity of up to three (3) designated residents, in order for the physical, 2

August 1, 2011

CFOP 155-26

medical, emotional or security needs of the residents to be met. The assigned staff maintains visual contact with the assigned residents at all times. Should a resident need to separate from the group observation for medical care or the bathroom, additional staff assistance will be called to maintain the required observation. Documentation of behavior, activity, and location is required every 15 minutes. Authorization for GO is by clinician order as defined in this operating procedure. This level of observation must be reviewed and renewed at least every seven (7) days and include a face-to-face examination by a clinician. The clinician will document whether changes have occurred, note additional concerns, if any, write a new order and document justification for continuation or discontinuation of an order. d. One-to-One (1:1) Observation. This level of observation requires one staff member to maintain uninterrupted visual contact of a resident while remaining within arms length at all times. If it is determined by a clinician that within arms length creates a danger to staff members or is not therapeutic for the resident, the clinician may write an order indicating a variance from this requirement. The clinician will document justification for the variance. Staff assigned this coverage cannot be assigned to more than one resident at a time. One-to-one observation requires documentation at least every 15 minutes. Authorization for One-to-One Observation is by clinician order as defined in this operating procedure. This level of observation must be reviewed and renewed at least every 24 hours and include a face-to-face examination by a clinician. The clinician will document whether changes have occurred, note additional concerns, if any, write a new order and document justification for continuation or discontinuation of an order. e. Two-to-One (2:1) Observation. This level of observation requires two staff members to maintain uninterrupted visual contact of a resident while remaining within arms length at all times. If it is determined by a clinician that within arms length creates a danger to staff members or is not therapeutic for the resident, the clinician may write an order indicating a variance from this requirement. The clinician will document justification for the variance. Staff assigned this coverage cannot be assigned to more than one resident at a time. Two-to-one observation requires documentation at least every 15 minutes. Authorization for Two-to-one observation is from a clinician as defined in this operating procedure. This level of observation must be reviewed and renewed at least every 24 hours and include a face-to-face examination by a clinician. The clinician will document whether changes have occurred, note additional concerns, if any, write a new order and document justification for continuation or discontinuation of an order. 6. Trauma-Informed Care. All direct care staff and treatment professionals will be trained in TraumaInformed Care. Staff will review each residents Personal Safety Plan (form CF-MH 3124, available in DCF Forms) in his or her assigned area. Staff will continue to reduce trauma when employing alternative solutions for residents in crisis or in potentially harmful situations. Staff will use calming strategies and avoid triggers, as indicated on the Personal Safety Plan, when residents are in danger of harming themselves or others. 7. Key Indicators of the Need to Employ Special Observation and Precautions. Key indicators that special observation and precautions may be needed include but are not limited to: a. Suicidal/Self-Abuse. Residents who display or who have a significant potential for suicidal or self-injurious behavior. b. Homicidal/Assaultive. Residents who display or who have a significant potential for assaultive behavior toward others. c. Arson. Residents who threaten to or have deliberately attempted to set fires. d. Escape/Elopement. Residents who have significant potential for leaving hospital grounds without authorization. 3

August 1, 2011

CFOP 155-26

e. Medical. Residents who have significant medical problems which require special monitoring and documentation (e.g. seizures, choking, falling, special diets, grabbing food from others, excessive drinking of fluids, etc.) 8. Assessment of Risk and Orders for Special Observation and Precautions. a. Clinicians may authorize observation and precautions for individuals who are estimated to be at increased levels of risk to demonstrate harm against themselves or others. Orders for observation may also be related to the collection of information for diagnostic purposes. Observation and precautions may be authorized for medical, psychiatric, or behavioral concerns following face-toface examination. Authorizations for special observations and precautions are generally provided after a clinical assessment, and to the extent possible, assessment should involve members of the recovery team. b. If a situation exists where special observation and precautions must be initiated, renewed or discontinued after hours, during the weekend or on state approved holidays, a Registered Nurse may, after a face-to face assessment, seek verbal authorization from a clinician. All verbal authorizations (orders) must be signed by a clinician within 48 hours. c. All written orders for special observation and precautions, at a minimum, shall: (1) Identify and describe key indicators or other problems; (2) Delineate type of observation and precautions needed to maintain safety; (3) List evaluation or treatment goals aimed at lifting the observation and precautions; (4) Include the time limit of the order; and, (5) Include signature, credentials, date, and time. d. At the end of the specified duration, a new order must be written to continue the special observation and precautions (if continuation is warranted) . The clinician must write a progress note which includes justification for the previously mentioned decision. e. Observers will use either the Clinical Observation Progress Note sheet in Appendix C to this operating procedure or the Special Observation Flow Sheet in Appendix D to this operating procedure in accordance with facility policy. 9. Longer-Term Use of Special Observation or Precautions. In rare cases where an individual requires observation on a longer term or chronic basis (defined as two months or longer) to ensure safety of the individual or others, an order for longer-term observation may be written. Before implementation, the Clinical Director must approve this intervention. This intervention must be part of the recovery plan and must be reviewed by the recovery team on a weekly basis. Once implemented, the physicians order must be renewed on a weekly basis. 10. Discipline Responsibilities for Special Observation and Special Precautions. a. Clinician Responsibilities. (1) Assess and evaluate the status of residents risk to self or others. (2) Assess and evaluate the resident for need to implement, continue or discontinue special observation and precautions.

August 1, 2011

CFOP 155-26

(3) Sign orders to initiate, continue, or discontinue special observations and precautions. (4) Conduct face-to-face examinations within the frequency required by the particular observation or precaution. (5) Document justification for initiation, continuation or discontinuation of an order. (6) Notify the Recovery Team leader of the residents status. b. Direct Care Staff Responsibilities. (1) Observe resident for change in behavior and/or condition. (2) Immediately report any changes to the unit nurse or the most senior recovery team member available. (3) Document observations as ordered. (4) Make documented recommendations to Recovery Team for change in treatment. (5) Report changes, interventions, or preventative measures utilized during each change of shift report. c. Nurse Responsibilities. (1) If a situation exists where special observation and precautions must be initiated, renewed or discontinued after hours, during the weekend or on state approved holidays, a Registered Nurse may, after a face-to face assessment, seek verbal authorization from a clinician. All verbal authorizations (orders) must be signed by a clinician within 48 hours. (2) The registered nurse will evaluate and document the residents behavior and/or condition while on any special observations and precautions as authorized by a clinician as defined in this operating procedure. The frequency will be dictated by facility policy based on individual need. (3) The registered nurse will notify the clinician of any changes in behavior and/or health status of resident. d. Recovery Team Responsibilities. (1) Meet with residents who are on special observation or precautions, assess the need for continuation, and document the review in the clinical record. (2) During normal duty hours, the recovery team leader shall notify members of the Team of the residents status. The team will decide the extent to which a holistic approach to the residents problems is needed, and whether to meet with the resident to determine any additional needs for treatment planning. (3) The assigned staff person will ensure that the residents Personal Safety Plan is complete and up to date.

CLINICAL RISK ASSESSMENT SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

OVERALL, considering frequency & severity of all risk factors, persons current risk in comparison to most recent CRAG is (circle one):
Increased Decreased Unchanged assistance Referral to UD/MSD made? Yes No Purpose of referral? Information only Request for

Referrals: For the 120-hour CRAGI, refer if any occurrence of self-injury, violent, or escape/elopement behavior in past 30 days (items 1,3,5); if any yes on items 8 or 9; if any significant issues in items 13, 14, 15; OR if any occurrence of significant behaviors prior to, or since, admission. For all other CRAGs, refer if the overall risk is increased. In summarizing, the team may find it useful to consider three aspects of risk: (1) Risk to Others, (2) Active Risk to Self. and (3) Passive Risk to Self through Personal Vulnerability. If overall risk is increased, summarize on this form using specific data & behavioral examples, and refer. If team makes a referral for purposes of information only, briefly describe how current risk factors are managed. If team makes a referral for purposes of requesting assistance, specify the nature of the request on the referral form. If the overall risk is rated as unchanged, and some boxes are checked risk, justify the overall rating of unchanged in the summary.
