R1 was admitted to Sutter Roseville Medical Center and diagnosed with a left hip fracture. The hospital contacted facility staff to determine how R1 may have sustained the fractured hip and there were no records of any recent falls. However, there was a text message from S3 to the facility group chat that indicated S3 found R1 on the floor on 1/23/2026 at 0400 hours. S3 placed R1 back in their bed. It was unknown how long R1 was on their bedroom floor prior to S3 finding them. Staff interviews indicated that protocol for unwitnessed falls is to call 911.
