Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, this facility failed to address and treat the pain of one
(Resident 1) of four sampled residents when Resident 1 had an accident in the shower chair, sustained an
injury, and complained of pain. This resulted in a complete omission of pain treatment and management
and Resident 1 suffering without any pain relief.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings:
A policy titled Pain Management (Undated), indicated that the facility must ensure that pain management is
provided to residents who require such services, consistent with professional standards of practice, the
comprehensive person-centered care plan . This policy defines acute pain as pain that is usually sudden
onset and time-limited with a duration of less than one month and often is caused by injury . The facility will:
1. Recognize when the resident is experiencing pain and identify circumstances when the pain can be
anticipated and evaluate the resident for pain, during ongoing scheduled assessments, and when a
significant change in condition
occurs.
2. Facility staff will observe for nonverbal indicators which may indicate the presence of pain. These
indicators include facial expressions .
A record review of Resident 1's face sheet indicated an admission date of 4/24/25 for hemiplegia (a
condition characterized by paralysis of one side of the body) and hemiparesis (a condition characterized by
weakness on one side of the body) following cerebral infarction (tissue death caused by a lack of blood
supply to the affected area) affecting right dominant side, and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). Resident 1
was her own representative. The only language Resident 1 speaks was Hmong.

Resident 1 while in the shower chair on 5/6/25? CNA 1 stated Resident 1 is very tiny, and resident was in
the shower chair and she slipped down with her rear-end that fell into the hole in the shower chair. Resident
1's right leg got caught in the opening and it cut the top of her right leg at the thigh. CNA 1 stated she went
to get Resident 1 out of the hole in the shower chair. CNA 1 stated the Director of Nursing (DON), and
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LN) 1 came running into shower room. CNA 1 stated patient said, pain and
pointed to the middle of her right thigh. CNA 1 stated Resident 1 had a grimace on her face.
By concurrent observation and interview on 5/9/25 at 1:43 pm with CNA 2, went to Resident 1's room
(12-2). Observed a long circular scab on Resident 1's right middle thigh (going perpendicular to the leg,
going around the front part of leg, mid-thigh) and on the inner thigh, Resident 1 had a scab that went down
the leg, parallel to it. CNA 2 stated, Resident 1 did have pain.
By concurrent interview and record review of shower sheet dated 5/6/25 at 1:23 pm by CNA 1 did not chart
any evidence of the incident.

Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, this facility failed to ensure licensed staff the competencies and
skill set necessary to provide nursing care for one (Resident 1) of four sampled residents when:
Nursing staff did not assess and document when Resident 1 had an accident and sustained an injury.
Nursing staff did not complete a change in condition or alert the physician. There was no care plans
completed to address the accident and injury Resident 1 had. This resulted in Resident 1 not receiving the
treatment and pain relief needed for Resident 1's injury.
Findings:
A record review of Resident 1's face sheet indicated an admission date of 4/24/25 for hemiplegia (a
condition characterized by paralysis of one side of the body) and hemiparesis (a condition characterized by
weakness on one side of the body) following cerebral infarction (tissue death caused by a lack of blood
supply to the affected area) affecting right dominant side, and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). Resident 1
was her own representative. The only language Resident 1 speaks was Hmong.
A review of a policy titled, Nursing Assessment Policy (Undated) indicated, Qualified staff who are
knowledgeable about the resident will conduct an accurate assessment addressing each resident's status,
needs, strengths, and areas of decline. The assessment will be documented in the medical record.
A review of a policy titled, Notification of Changes (Undated) indicated, The facility must inform the resident,
consult with the resident's physician and/or notify the resident's family member or legal representative when
there is a change requiring such notification. Circumstances that required notification included: accidents
resulting in injury.

the Pain of Patients in the Intensive Care Unit. Indian J Crit Care Med. 2023 Mar;27(3):195-200. doi:
10.5005/jp-journals-10071-24425. PMID: 36960117; PMCID: PMC10028721. The study indicated,
Nonverbal pain scale is a combination of behavioral and physiological measurements and provides a more
reliable assessment of pain. The study also indicated an example of facial expressions nurses could assess
are the following: grimacing, frowning, or other expressions that might indicate pain.
