**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and records review, the facility failed to report a major injury for one of three sampled residents
(Resident 4), when Restorative Nursing Assistant H (RNA H) left Resident 4 alone outside on a patio for 30
minutes, where Resident 4 fell and sustained a subdural hematoma (bleeding between the brain and its
lining) This failure resulted in delaying an investigation into a major injury, and had the potential for other
incidents not to be reported. FindingsDuring a review of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
(CMS) Long-Term Care Facility Resident Assessment Instrument 3.0 User's Manual, Version 1.19.1, page
J-26, dated [DATE]. The CMS document defined Major Injury as Including bone fractures, joint dislocations,
closed head injuries with altered consciousness, subdural hematoma. During a review of facility policy titled
Assessing Falls and Their Causes, revised [DATE], the policy indicated that the facility should attempt to
identify the cause of a fall, and Within 24 hours of a fall, begin to try to identify possible or likely causes of
the incident.whether the resident was trying to get to the toilet.whether any environmental risk factors were
involved; and/or Whether there is a pattern of falls for this resident. This policy also indicated, Report other
information in accordance with facility policy and professional standards of practice. During a review of
facility policy titled Unusual Occurrence Reporting, revised 2007, the policy indicated, Our facility reports
unusual occurrences and other reportable events which affect the health, safety, or welfare of our residents.
During a review of Resident 4's Facility admission Record, the admission Record indicated that Resident 4
was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Vascular Dementia (a condition where the brain
doesn't get enough blood flow, causing problems with memory and thinking), hemiplegia and hemiparesis
(weakness and difficulty moving one side of the body) following nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (a
stroke, where brain tissue is damaged by a leaking blood vessel), and muscle weakness.During a review of
Resident 4's Minimum Data Set (MDS: a standardized resident assessment and care screening tool), dated
[DATE], the MDS indicated that the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 99
(BIMS: a quick, verbal quiz that tests memory and shows how a person's brain is working) indicating the
resident had been unable to fully participate in the assessment due to their mental state, and was likely
confused. The MDS indicated that Resident 4's functional status required one-person assistance with bed
mobility, and transfers, and Resident 4's ability to walk was unsteady. During a review of Resident 4's
Progress Note: Alert Note dated [DATE], indicated Resident was found on the ground outside the patio.
Resident was found to be unresponsive to verbal or tactile stimuli (trying to cause a patient to respond
verbally or physically), he has a pulse and has shallow breathing. The Progress Note also indicated
Resident 4 was unresponsive, had unstable vital signs, and was soon transported to local hospital for
evaluation. This Progress Note also indicated according to investigation of fall, [RNA H] took [Resident 4]
outside to the patio, and [Resident 4] was found on the ground afterward.During a review Hospital A's

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to honor an activity preference that was
developed in the activity care plan for one of three residents (Resident 1).This failure had the potential for
Resident 1's mental and psychosocial needs not to be met.Findings:A review of a facility policy titled
Activity Programs revised June of 2018, indicated activity programs are designed to meet the Interests of
and support the physical, mental and psychosocial well-being of each resident. The Activities Program is
provided to support the well-being of residents and to encourage both Independence and community
interaction. Activities offered are based on the comprehensive resident-centered assessment and the
preferences of each resident. The Activities Program is ongoing and includes facility-organized group
activities, independent individual activities and assisted individual activities. Activities are considered any
endeavor, other than routine ADLs, in which the resident participates, that is intended to enhance his or her
sense of well-being and to promote or enhance physical, cognitive or emotional health. Individualized and
group activities are provided that reflect the schedules, choices and rights of the residents, are offered at
hours convenient to the residents, including evenings, holidays and weekends; and reflect the cultural and
religious Interests, hobbies, life experiences and personal preferences of the residents.A review of Resident
4's record indicated he was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of dementia and left sided weakness.
Resident 4 was unable to make his own health care decisions.A review of a quarterly activity participation
review dated 7/30/25, indicated Resident 4 enjoyed being outdoors. A review of an activity care plan dated
8/23/22, indicated staff will take Resident 4 out to sit in sun when the weather was nice.A review of
Resident 4's activity participation notes dated from 1/3/25 to 9/11/25, indicated no activity for going outside
on the patio was documented in the record.During an interview on 10/15/25 at 1:50 pm, Activity Assistant

residents as a group to go outside in either of the two outside patios at the facility. AA stated she had not
taken Resident 4 out on the patios and was not aware that it was in his care plan. During a concurrent
observation and interview on 10/15/25 at 2 pm, Activity Director (AD) stated she was not aware that
Resident 4 had a care plan which indicated he liked to go sit outside. AD confirmed there was not a group
activity for residents to sit outside on the two patios at the facility. AD confirmed the activity department had
not provided an outside activity for Resident 4 due staff not getting him up in his wheelchair. AD confirmed
that the care plan did not give clear direction to staff if Resident 4 required supervision and how often while
out on either patio. AD stated Resident 4 could be out there alone if they door was open to allow staff to
hear him if he called out for assistance. AD confirmed all areas of the patio were not visible depending on
where a resident was placed.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a plan of care for safety and
supervision for one of three sampled residents (Resident 4), when Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) H
left Resident 4 alone outside on a patio for 30 minutes, where Resident 4 fell and sustained a subdural
hematoma (bleeding between the brain and its lining). This deficient practice resulted in Resident 4
experiencing a major head injury, emergency care at hospital, and a significant decline in their quality of
life. Resident 4 was transferred to the hospital on [DATE] after he fell. Resident 4 returned to the facility on
[DATE], with Hospice services (specialized end of life care). Resident 4 passed away at the facility on
[DATE], 13 days following the fall.Refer to F609, F679 and F726.FindingsDuring a review of facility policy
titled Assessing Falls and their Causes, revised [DATE], indicated falls are a leading cause of morbidity and
mortality among the elderly in nursing homes. Falling may be related to underlying clinical or medical
conditions, overall functional decline, medication side effects, and/or environmental risk factors. Residents
must be assessed upon admission and regularly afterward for potential risk of falls. Relevant risk factors
must be addressed promptly.During a review of Resident 4's Facility admission Record, indicated that
Resident 4 was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included Vascular Dementia (a condition where
the brain doesn't get enough blood flow, causing problems with memory and thinking), hemiplegia and

(history) of falls r/t (related to) weakness, poor balance, impaired in communication, impaired decision
making ability, poor safety awareness, incontinence (unable to control urine flow or bowels), on cardiac
meds (heart medications), on narcotics (strong pain medications) and diagnosis of CVA (a stroke, where
brain tissue is damaged by a leaking blood vessel) with left sided weakness. This Care Plan on Fall
indicated interventions for Resident 4 that included activities that minimize the potential for falls while
providing diversion and distraction. [Resident 4] needs a safe environment with even floors free from spills
and/or clutter.Educate [Resident 4]/family/caregivers about safety reminders and what to do if a fall occurs.
This care plan also indicated [Resident 4] has an ADL (activities of daily living) self-care performance deficit

IP LVN stated RNA H should have told more people, she should have known better. During an interview
with Medical Doctor Z (MD Z) on [DATE] at 9:35 am , MD Z confirmed that they were one of the treating
physicians for Resident 4, and performed the medical assessment on [DATE]. MD Z stated I identified a
small bleed, a subdural hematoma. MD Z also stated Yes its absolutely a major injury, any bleed in the brain
is a big deal. There was also midline shift (when bleeding and pressure inside skull becomes strong enough
to push brain to one side), that was concerning. MD 1 stated that a major injury like this could negatively
impact a person's quality of life. During an interview with Activities Director (AD) on [DATE] at 2:00 pm, AD

that Activities Department had never done that. AD stated that Resident 4's Plan of Care did not include
directions to staff on how to supervise Resident 4 outside on patios. AD confirmed that residents sitting
outside on patio could not be visualized with direct line of sight at all times from AD's office, and stated that
patio doors would have to be open to hear residents calling for help. During an interview with CNA Q on
[DATE] at 1:25 pm, CNA Q stated that you can't leave [Resident 4], or someone like him. [Resident 4] who
was disoriented. If [residents] are not alert, you should stay with them. If they have dementia, you don't
leave them. CNA Q confirmed that staff cannot fully visualize or supervise residents from the nursing desk
next to the patio. There's a portion of the patio you can't see. During an interview with CNA P on [DATE] at
2:30 pm, CNA P stated, its common sense that residents with dementia should not be out on the patio
alone, especially during the hot months. CNA P stated, [Resident 4] needed total supervision at all times.
CNA P confirmed while looking at the computer entering resident information, that there was not a clear
line of site to the patio, and that the other station was even further from the door to the patio. CNA P
confirmed you could not hear nor see residents out on the patio due to the level of noise at the nursing
stations. CNA P confirmed that Resident 4 was totally dependent on staff for everything, wheelchair bound
and could only use his right side. CNA P stated that Resident 4 enjoyed sitting on both patios in the
facility.During a concurrent interview and record review with the Director of Nursing (DON) on [DATE] at
2:45 pm, DON reviewed the facility records and MDS reports for Resident 4, and confirmed that Resident 4
had been classified as a Moderate Fall Risk prior to his fall incident on [DATE]. DON also verbally confirmed
that Resident 4 had been dependent on staff for all care and mobility. DON stated that residents with
dementia, dependent residents, or resident with mobility issues only need to be supervised every 30
minutes while outside on patio. DON verbally confirmed that there was no method for residents on patio to
call for help, such as a call light. DON confirmed the plan of care did not include how Resident 4 could
safely be supervised when he requested to go outdoor patio. During an interview with Family
Representative (FP) on [DATE], FP stated they found Resident 4 to have moderate to severe changes in
condition following the fall on [DATE]. FP stated [Resident 4] doesn't talk as much, he's not aware anymore.
When asked about the fall incident, FP stated It's my understanding that some nurse took [Resident 4]
outside, left him there, and then he fell out and cracked his head. FP stated that while informing FP about
the fall, the facility told FP We had eyes on the patio doors. FP stated, the facility shouldn't leave anyone
unsupervised.During a review of records titled Progress Note: Alert Note, dated [DATE], indicated that
Resident 4 had died at facility at approximately 9:21 pm that evening.

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
interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that direct care staff had competencies necessary
to care for one out of three sampled residents (Resident 4) when Restorative Nursing Assistant H (RNA H)
left Resident 4 alone on a patio for 30 minutes, where Resident 4 fell and sustained a major head injury.
This deficient practice resulted in Resident 4 experiencing a major head injury, admission to an acute care
hospital, a decline in condition, and eventually death. This failure also had the potential for incompetent staff
to care for other residents. FindingsDuring a review of records titled Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA)
Job Description, indicated that RNA H signed the document on 8/26/25, indicating they understood the
duties and responsibilities outlined. The RNA Job Description indicated that RNA H's Duties and
Responsibilities included Follow established safety precautions in the performance of all duties.Help
residents to perform tasks for him/herself as appropriate as assigned in resident's plan of care.Follow
appropriate safety, hygiene and infection control measures.Review care plans daily and Keep the nurses'
call system within easy reach of the resident.During a review of Resident 4's Facility admission Record,
indicated that Resident 4 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Vascular Dementia (a
condition where the brain doesn't get enough blood flow, causing problems with memory and thinking),
hemiplegia and hemiparesis (weakness and difficulty moving one side of the body) following nontraumatic
intracerebral hemorrhage (a stroke, where brain tissue is damaged by a leaking blood vessel), and muscle
weakness.During a review of Resident 4's Minimum Data Set (MDS: a standardized resident assessment
and care screening tool), dated 7/29/25, the MDS indicated that the resident had a Brief Interview for
Mental Status (BIMS) score of 99 (BIMS: a quick, verbal quiz that tests memory and shows how a person's
brain is working) indicating the resident had been unable to fully participate in the assessment due to their
mental state, and was likely confused. The MDS indicated that Resident 4's functional status required
one-person assistance with bed mobility, and transfers, and Resident 4's ability to walk was unsteady.
During a review of Resident 4's Care Plan on Fall, last revised on 8/4/25, indicated [Resident 4] had hx
(history) of falls r/t (related to) weakness, poor balance, impaired in communication, impaired decision
making ability, poor safety awareness, incontinence (unable to control urine flow or bowels), on cardiac
meds (heart medications), on narcotics (strong pain medications) and diagnosis of CVA (a stroke, where
brain tissue is damaged by a leaking blood vessel) with left sided weakness. This Care Plan on Fall
indicated interventions for Resident 4 that included activities that minimize the potential for falls while
providing diversion and distraction. [Resident 4] needs a safe environment with even floors free from spills
and/or clutter.Educate [Resident 4]/family/caregivers about safety reminders and what to do if a fall occurs.
This care plan also indicated [Resident 4] has an ADL (activities of daily living) self-care performance deficit
r/t CVA with left hemiplegia (one side of he body is weak or paralyzed), impaired cognition, impaired in
communication, poor endurance, with interventions listed including Provide appropriate assistance in all
ADLs. This Care Plan on Fall also indicated that staff should provide Resident 4 with prompt response to all
requests for assistance. [Resident 4] needs a safe environment with even floors free from spills and/or
clutter, adequate, glare-free light; a working and reachable call light, and the bed in low position.During a
review of Resident 4's Progress Note: Alert Note dated 9/1/25, indicated Resident was found on the ground
outside the patio. Resident was found to be unresponsive to verbal or tactile stimuli (trying to cause a
patient to respond verbally or physically), he has a pulse and has shallow breathing. The Progress Note
also indicated Resident 4 had unstable vital signs, and was soon
