This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to report unwitnessed injuries to the state survey agency (SSA) in a timely manner for one of three residents (Resident 1). An injury on 10/26/17 resulting in a loss of consciousness requiring emergent medical intervention was reported late. An injury on 5/15/17 resulting in a separated right shoulder was not reported. An injury on 8/30/17 resulting in a bump on the head measuring 3.5 cm x 3 cm was not reported. These failures had the potential to delay identification and implementation of appropriate corrective action. Findings: A review of Resident 1's medical record indicated he was admitted on 2/26/2015 with diagnoses including muscle weakness, history of falling, abnormal posture, altered mental status, abnormalities of gait and mobility, and Parkinson's disease (a progressive disorder that affects movement impairing posture and balance). Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment tool) dated 9/3/17, indicated the resident required staff assistance for mobility and that his balance during transitions and walking was "not steady, only able to stabilize with staff assistance".

When asked if the facility reported Resident 1's injury that occurred on 5/15/17, the DON stated, "I don't think so". When asked if the facility reported Resident 1's injury that occurred on 8/30/17, the DON stated, "No". A review of the facility's faxed report, "UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE" indicated the report detailing Resident 1's injury that occurred on 10/26/17 at 8:45 a.m. was faxed to the SSA on 10/27/17 at 7:11 p.m.. A call was received by the SSA on 10/27/17 at 5:26 p.m. reporting the incident. A review of the facility's policy, "UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE REPORTING" indicated "unusual occurrences shall be reported via telephone to appropriate agencies as required by current law and/or regulations within twentyfour (24) hours of such incident or as otherwise required by federal and state regulations". A review of the facility's policy, "ABUSEREPORTING & INVESTIGATIONS" indicated "the facility will report all allegations of abuse as required by law and regulations to the appropriate agencies.

The facility must attempt to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing a side or bed rail. If a bed or side rail is used, the facility must ensure correct installation, use, and maintenance of bed rails, including but not limited to the following elements.

(2) Review the risks and benefits of bed rails with the resident or resident representative and obtain informed consent prior to installation. (3) Ensure that the bed’s dimensions are appropriate for the resident’s size and weight. This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the fall care plans were updated after fall incidents for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1). This resulted in Resident 1's unwitnessed three falls with injuries occurring on 5/15/17 (separated right shoulder) , 8/30/17 (bump on the head), and 10/26/17 with loss of consciousness. Findings: A review of Resident 1's medical record indicated he was admitted on 2/26/15 with diagnoses including muscle weakness, history of falling, abnormal posture, altered mental status, abnormalities of gait and mobility, and Parkinson's disease (a progressive disorder that affects movement impairing posture and balance).

A review of the medical record, "THERAPY POST-FALL SCREEN" for 5/15/17 completed by the IDT, indicated the root cause of the fall was determined to be related to "behavioral symptoms" and "non-compliant with safety precautions". A recommendation was made for a "physical therapy eval(uation)". A review of the medical record, "IDT POSTEVENT NOTE" for 8/30/17 at 11:00 a.m., indicated "Resident seen laying on the floor by his bedside incurring a head lump/bump... measuring 3.5 cm (length) x 3 cm (width)...
