Hospice was contacted early, on 09/01/2025, and the duty nurse was spoken to. Hospice personnel arrived at approximately 3:45PM and assessed R1 on 09/01/2025 and ordered a mobile xray. The xray occurred on 09/09/2025, discovering a fracture. Licensee notified CCLD on 09/10/2025 of the incident. R1 did sustain an unexplained injury while in care, however, there is no indication how it occurred. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is Unsubstantiated.
