understand how she could have fallen. The
responsible party stated the night nurse had
informed her she made sure Resident 1 always
had two staff assisting to change Resident 1,
which clearly did not happen at the time the
resident fell.
Review of the MDSs dated 6/8 and 9/5/17,
showed Resident 1 had severe cognitive
impairment and required extensive assistance
of two persons for bed mobility and total
assistance of two persons for transfers.
Review of Resident 1's plan of care showed a

documentation showing Resident 1 needed two
persons to assist with bed mobility.

verified the Documentation Survey Report form
for the task of bed mobility from June through
September 2017 showed inconsistencies in the
number of staff required to provide bed mobility
assistance for Resident 1.
On 10/12/17 at 1340 hours, an interview was
conducted with the DSD. The DSD stated
when a CNA from a nursing registry (business
which provides CNAs as needed) was working,
it was up to the licensed nurse to inform them
of their assignments and give them the reports
on the residents they were assigned to care for.
On 10/20/17 at 1500 hours, a telephone
interview was conducted with CNA 1. CNA 1
was assigned to care for Resident 1 on
9/22/17, when the fall occurred. CNA 1 verified
she was employed by a nursing registry
agency. CNA 1 stated she never received any
report regarding Resident 1's care needs and
was never informed Resident 1 needed two
persons' assistance for bed mobility and
transfers. CNA 1 stated she was cleaning and
changing Resident 1 at the time of the
accident. CNA 1 stated Resident 1 was trying
to help by turning to her side, but she
accidentally rolled too far and fell off the bed
onto the floor.
On 11/13/17 at 1420 hours, an interview was
conducted with LVN 1. LVN 1 was the licensed
nurse assigned to Resident 1 on 9/22/17, when
the fall occurred. LVN 1 stated he did not give
a report regarding Resident 1 to CNA 1. LVN 1
stated he told the other CNAs to answer
whatever questions CNA 1 might have.
