Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility staff failed to inform one of one sampled resident's (Resident 1)
doctor of Resident 1's low blood pressure (BP - the force of blood pushing against the artery walls as the
heart pumps around the body) reading on 12/4/2025 when Resident 1 was admitted to the facility.This
deficient practice had the potential to lead to further complications such as dizziness, confusion, and
physical injury to Resident 1.Cross Reference F689Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]
with multiple diagnoses including atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat in which the upper chambers of
the heart [the atria] beat inconsistently and rapidly) and hypertension (high BP - when one's blood pushes
too forcefully against the artery walls.)During a review of Resident 1's Progress Notes (PN), dated
12/4/2025, the PN indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility via ambulance at 5:18 PM and the initial
vital signs indicated a pulse of 82 beats per minute and a BP of 64/40 millimeters of mercury (mm/Hg standard unit for measurement of BP). The PN indicated at 10:30 PM, Resident 1 was found on the floor
after having slipped off the bed onto the floor while attempting to use the urinal located on the right side of
the bed.During a review of Resident 1's Situation, Background, Assessment and Recommendation (SBAR,
structured communication framework that helps teams share information about the condition of a resident)
Communication Form, dated 12/4/2025, the SBAR form indicated at 10:30 PM, Resident 1 was found on
the floor of Resident 1's room perpendicular to Resident 1's bed. The SBAR form indicated Resident 1 had
attempted to use the urinal located on the right side of Resident 1's bed and Resident 1 slipped onto the
floor. The SBAR form indicated at the time of the fall, Resident 1's BP was 65/41 mm/Hg.During a review of
Resident 1's Glasgow Coma Scale Assessment Flow Sheet (GCS, a score used to measure an individual's
level of consciousness based on three kinds of behavior: eye movement, speech and other body motions)
dated from 12/4/2025 to 12/8/2025. Resident 1's BP was taken every 15 minutes after the fall from 10:30
PM to 11:30 PM as follows:10:30 PM: 64/40 mm/Hg10:45 PM: 80/40 mm/Hg11:00 PM: 90/40 mm/Hg11:15
PM: 100/70 mm/Hg11:30 PM: 97/80 mm/HgDuring a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a
resident assessment tool), dated 12/14/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 had intact cognition (ability to
understand and process information) and required moderate assistance (helper does less than half the
effort) to come to a standing position from sitting in a chair or on the side of the bed and substantial
assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for toileting hygiene.During an interview on 12/17/2025 at
2:35 PM with Resident 1, Resident 1 stated a normal BP reading for Resident 1 was about 117/ 87 mm/Hg.
Resident 1 stated Resident 1 did not recall feeling dizzy before the fall and did not have a clear memory of
how the fall happened. Resident 1 stated sometimes when turning to the right side, the whole room
appeared to spin. Resident 1 stated Resident 1 had slid off the right side of the bed while attempting to use
the urinal located on the right side of the bed.During an interview on 12/18/2025 at 9:20

AM with Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) 2, CNA 2 stated a BP reading of 65/40 mm/Hg was considered
low BP. CNA 2 stated CNA 2 needed to report the low BP to the nurse right away because the resident's
condition could change very quickly and lead to other complications including dizziness and potentially
higher risk of falls.During an interview on 12/18/2025 at 9:40 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1,
LVN 1 stated if a resident's BP was 65/40 mm/Hg, LVN 1 would check the BP again manually, elevate the
resident's feet to encourage blood flow, and inform the doctor. LVN 1 stated LVN 1 would check the BP
manually to ensure it was not a mechanical error with the machine. LVN 1 stated if the resident stated they
were feeling okay, LVN 1 would still recheck the BP. LVN 1 stated low BP could lead to delirium and
dizziness. LVN 1 stated if the staff were unable to reach the doctor, they informed the Director of Nursing
(DON) and Registered Nurse (RN) supervisor.During an interview on 12/18/2025 at 11:48 AM with LVN 4,
LVN 4 recalled Resident 1 had an approximate BP of 64/40 mm/Hg upon admission on [DATE]. LVN 4
stated a normal BP was about 120/80 mm/Hg and Resident 1's BP was considered low. LVN 4 stated
Resident 1 did not appear to have any symptoms of low BP such as paleness or disorientation. LVN 4
stated LVN 4 sent a picture of Resident 1's medications to Resident 1's doctor when Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility for medication reconciliation purposes. LVN 4 stated LVN 4 did not discuss/report
Resident 1's vital signs [low BP] to Resident 1's doctor. LVN 4 stated LVN 4 did not speak to the doctor
about Resident 1's low BP due to feeling overwhelmed by admitting a second resident just ten minutes after
Resident 1 arrived [was admitted ] to the facility on [DATE]. LVN 4 stated Resident 1 had a fall later in the
evening on 12/4/2025 but LVN 4 did not believe Resident 1's low BP contributed to the fall. LVN 4 stated in
general, low BP could make someone a higher risk for falls.During an interview on 12/18/2025 at 12:18 PM
with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 1 had an abnormal BP upon admission on
[DATE] and the nurse should have monitored Resident 1 and called Resident 1's doctor to report Resident
1's low BP. The DON stated Resident 1's BP was in a normal range before leaving the hospital and unstable
upon the 12/4/2025 admission. The DON stated this was potentially a sign of infection or complications
from Resident 1's medical history. The DON stated the staff sometimes communicated with Resident 1's
doctor via secure text messages that disappeared after a few days. The DON stated the PNs did not
indicate communication with Resident 1's doctor [regarding Resident 1's low BP] and staff should
document when they communicated with the doctors to ensure information was shared with all staff and the
plan of care was followed. The DON stated there was no documented evidence in Resident 1's PNs
indicating Resident 1's doctor was notified of Resident 1's low blood pressure on 12/4/2025.During a review
of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Blood Pressure, Measuring, dated 9/2010, the P&P
indicated BP is typically defined as normal when the systolic pressure [measures the BP during the
contractions of the heart] is in the range of 101 to 129 mm/Hg and the diastolic [measures the pressure of
the blood while the heart is at rest] pressure of 61 to 84 mm/Hg. The P&P indicated hypotension is defined
as BP less than 100/60 mm/Hg and should be reported to the physician.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility staff failed to implement interventions to reduce the risk for falls for
one of three sampled residents (Resident 1), who was at high risk for falls, when Resident 1 was admitted
to the facility on [DATE] with low blood pressure (a condition in which the force of blood pushing against the
artery walls is too low).This deficient practice potentially led Resident 1 to slide off Resident 1's bed onto
the floor on 12/4/2025 while attempting to stand to use the urinal. This deficient practice had the potential to
result in injury and a physical decline to Resident 1.Cross Reference F684Findings:During a review of
Resident 1's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]
and readmitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat in which
the upper chambers of the heart [the atria] beat inconsistently and rapidly) and hypertension (high blood
pressure - when a person's blood pushes too forcefully against the artery walls).During a review of
Resident 1's Fall Risk Evaluation (FRE), dated 12/4/2025, the FRE indicated Resident 1 had balance
problems while standing. The FRE indicated Resident 1 experienced 1 to 2 falls in the past 3 months. The
FRE indicated a resident was considered a high risk for potential falls if the total score was 10 or
greater.During a review of Resident 1's Progress Notes (PN), dated 12/4/2025, timed at 6:23 PM, the PN
indicated Resident 1's FRE score was 13.During a review of Resident 1's Situation, Background,
Assessment and Recommendation (SBAR, structured communication framework that helps teams share
information about the condition of a resident) Communication Form, dated 12/4/2025, the SBAR form

pressure, but Resident 1 did not have any symptoms of low blood pressure such as paleness or dizziness
and was able to communicate with LVN 4. LVN 4 stated LVN 4 did not communicate Resident 1's low blood
pressure to Resident 1's doctor. LVN 4 stated in general, low blood pressure could make a resident (in
general) a higher risk for falls.During an interview on 12/18/2025 at 12:18 PM with the Director of Nursing
(DON), the DON stated there were many factors that could have contributed to Resident 1's fall on
12/4/2025. The DON stated Resident 1 blood pressure was not stable and Resident 1 should have been
monitored [before Resident 1's fall] and Resident 1's doctor should have been informed [of Resident 1's low
blood pressure to receive adequate interventions]. The DON stated in general, low blood pressure could
increase the risk of falls. The DON stated there was no documented evidence in Resident 1's PNs
indicating Resident 1's doctor was notified of Resident 1's low blood pressure on 12/4/2025. During a
review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Blood Pressure, Measuring, dated 9/2010, the P&P
indicated blood pressure is typically defined as normal when the systolic pressure [measures the blood
pressure during the contractions of the heart] is in the range of 101 to 129 mm/Hg and the diastolic
[measures the pressure of the blood while the heart is at rest] pressure of 61 to 84 mm/Hg. The P&P
indicated hypotension is defined as blood pressure less than 100/60 mm/Hg.During a review of the facility's
P&P titled, Fall Risk Assessment, dated 3/2018, the P&P indicated the attending physician and nursing
staff will evaluate the resident's vital signs, assess the resident for medical conditions (such as those that
cause dizziness) or sensory impairments (such as decreased vision and peripheral neuropathy [nerve
damage outside the brain and spinal cord]) that may predispose to falls.
