supervision and assistance devices to prevent
accidents.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview, clinical record review, and
facility policy review, the facility failed to
prevent an avoidable fall for one of three
sampled residents (Resident A) when she fell
from her bed while being changed by Certified
Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) and failed to
investigate the fall per the facility's policy. This
failure resulted in Resident A sustaining a

death when she fell from the bed.
Findings:
1. Resident A was 68 years old and admitted
to the facility on 3/6/18. Her diagnoses
included sepsis (life threatening complication of
an infection), CVA (Cerebrovascular accidentdamage to the brain from interruption of blood
supply), and lack of coordination.
Review of Resident A's Admission Minimum
Data Set (MDS, an assessment tool), dated
3/13/18, described her as having clear speech,
able to make herself understood, and able to
understand others. Resident A's Brief
Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was
13 out of 15 which indicated she was
cognitively intact. The MDS also described
Resident A as having no signs or symptoms of
delirium (disturbed state of mind) or behavioral
symptoms. The MDS described Resident A as
needing extensive assistance (resident
involved in activity, staff provided weight
bearing support) with bed mobility under "ADL
Self-Performance" and as needing two plus
person physical assist under "ADL Support
Provided" (code for most support provided by
staff over all shifts). The MDS also described
Resident A as needing extensive assistance
with personal hygiene and toilet use.
Review of Resident A's CAA (Care Area
Assessment) Worksheet, dated 3/14/18, under
the section "ADL [Activities of Daily Living]
Functional/Rehabilitation Potential," indicated,
"Patient requires extensive to total assistance

Tool," dated 3/7/18, indicated her score was
"6." The tool indicated, "A score of 4 or more is
considered at risk for falling."
Review of Resident A's Medication Review
Report (MRR), for 3/1/18-3/31/18, contained an
order, dated 3/6/18, for "Fall Precautions." On
the MRR, no documentation defined what fall
precautions were.
Review of Resident A's "Bed Safety
Evaluation," dated 3/9/18, indicated
"generalized weakness" as the reason for
determination of unsafe bed mobility. The
evaluation recommended no side rails be used
and recommended Resident A's bed be against
the wall.
Review of Resident A's ADL care plan, dated
3/14/18, included "[Resident A] has an ADL
Self Care Performance Deficit r/t to Sepsis [a
life threatening complication of an infection], CDiff [Clostridium difficile - a bacterium that

conditions], s/p CVA with left sided
weakness/left-hand contracture [shortening and

left sided weakness and left hand contracture.
Review of Resident A's clinical record also
contained a care plan for falls, dated 3/14/18,
which indicated "[Resident A] is at risk for falls
r/t weakness..."
Review of a Progress Note, dated 3/16/18,
indicated Resident A rolled or fell off the bed
while being changed. Resident A "was found
laying on her back on the floor close to bed."
Upon assessment, a lump was observed on the
right side of her face.
Review of Resident A's "Post Fall
Investigation," dated 3/16/18, indicated
Resident A rolled or slid out of bed while the
resident was being changed by a CNA. The
physician was notified because Resident A had
a lump to the right side of her face and an order
was received to transfer Resident A to the
emergency room (ER) for evaluation. Review
of a Progress note, dated 3/16/18, indicated
Resident A was transferred to the ER on
3/16/18 at 1:45 p.m.
In an interview with Licensed Nurse 1 (LN 1) on
5/9/18 at 11:10 a.m., he stated he was called to
Resident A's room. LN 1 saw Resident A on
the floor lying on her back. He noticed
Resident A had a lump on her right forehead.
LN 1 stated the NP (Nurse Practitioner) was in
the facility at the time and he informed her of
what happened. He stated he received a new
order to send Resident A to the ER for further
evaluation. LN 1 described CNA 1 as being a
tall man and Resident A's bed was up high
because CNA 1 was changing her. LN 1 stated
CNA 1 told him that he turned Resident A on
her side (toward the window). Then, as CNA 1
tried to reach for wipes on the bedside table,
Resident A rolled off the bed.

A telephone interview was conducted with CNA
1 on 5/24/18 at 4:58 p.m. CNA 1 stated he was
changing Resident A's brief. Resident A was
on her left side facing CNA 1. CNA 1 stated he
reached for linen which was on a shelf behind
him. CNA 1 stated Resident A's bed was up
right below his hip. CNA 1 was asked how
Resident A rolled out of bed if he was standing
next to the bed. CNA 1 replied that he must
have stepped a little ways away from the bed.
According to CNA 1, when Resident A rolled
out of bed she "rolled down my legs."
According to CNA 1 there were no side rails on
Resident A's bed and the bed was not against
a wall. CNA 1 further stated it was not possible
for Resident A's bed to be against a wall due to
the setup of the room.
Review of a facility form titled, "Preventing
Resident Falls," signed by CNA 1 and dated
10/18/17, indicated, "Bed Position: putting bed
in lowest position before leaving
resident...Anticipate resident needs."
During an interview with the Director of Staff
Development (DSD) on 7/8/18 at 9:08 a.m., the
DSD stated there were no signs or symbols on
the door/wall outside a resident's room to
indicate a resident was a fall risk. The DSD
stated the CNAs get information on a resident
or how to care for a resident from shift to shift
report from other CNAs. The DSD stated if a
CNA doesn't know how to care for a resident,
then "Don't guess," "Don't assume," "Get more
help." The DSD further stated she does not go
over with CNAs, upon hire, specifically how to
change a resident's brief or linen. Per the
DSD, she "assume already" [sic] the CNAs
know how to do that from their CNA training.
The DSD stated she would expect a CNA to
gather all their needed supplies before starting
care on a resident. The DSD was asked what
she would have expected a CNA to do if they

positioned on her side. The DSD replied she
would expect the CNA to position the resident
on their back, "in the middle" of the bed, in a
"more stable" position.
During interview with LN 1 on 7/11/18 at 8:45
a.m., LN 1 confirmed he had not discussed with
CNA 1 how to provide care for Resident A or
any precautions regarding Resident A. LN 1
was asked if CNA 1 knew Resident A was a fall
risk. LN 1 replied, "I believe so." LN 1 was
asked what he would expect a CNA to do if
they needed more supplies to perform care for
a resident. LN 1 replied he would expect the
CNA to "call" on their walkie-a hand held
portable two-way radio (per LN 1 all CNAs
have a walkie) or reposition resident on their
"back" in the "middle" of the bed and lower the
bed.
Review of Resident A's "Certificate of Death,"
dated 4/19/18, indicated the "immediate cause"
of death was "subdural hematoma" related to
fall. The "Certificate of Death" indicated the
injury date as "3/16/18" and the "Decedent
sustained a witnessed ground level fall."
2. Review of the facility's policy, "Fall
Management," revised 10/14/15, indicated,
"The Interdisciplinary Care Plan team will
complete a review of the Change in Condition
Report-Post Fall. This will be completed within
72 hours..." The policy also indicated, "All care
staff should be interviewed and the first
responder should be interviewed as soon as
possible."
During an interview with the Director of Nursing
(DON) on 5/9/18 at 11:42 a.m., she was asked
if the facility conducted an investigation or if the
interdisciplinary team had completed a review
of Resident A's fall. The DON confirmed they
