Residents Affected - Few
Findings:
Review of resident #40's medical record revealed he was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and

fracture, fracture of left pubis, fracture of left acetabulum, disorder of bone density and structure, dementia,

fall, the nurse completed an incident report which compiled the details of the fall, the predisposing
conditions, and notification to the physician and family. The RM indicated the Unit Manager conducted a fall
huddle with the resident's assigned nurse and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) to get details of the fall.
The RM explained if the fall was unwitnessed, the nurse performed an assessment and began neurological
checks. The RM indicated all falls were discussed in morning meetings the next business day and
interventions updated to the care plan based on the root cause analysis. The RM noted that residents who
suffer from Alzheimer's Disease and were ambulatory moved quickly and a caregiver may not get to them
timely to assist them. The RM explained the notes regarding resident #40's incident included the resident
fall on 3/3/22 at 5 PM. The RM indicated resident #40 did not call for assistance, and the resident reported
he lost his balance. The RM reported resident #40 was able to take a few steps inside his room and the
resident indicated he forgot to lock the wheelchair brakes. The RM reported therapy screened the resident
after the fall and encouraged him to call staff for assistance, lock his wheelchair breaks, and use the walker.
She said a review of the fall was conducted on 3/4/22 and determined it was not an adverse incident. The
RM conveyed they reminded staff to anticipate resident's needs and said, there is no way to prevent each
fall, unfortunately.
On 3/24/22 at 1:45 PM, the RM explained the resident was sent to the hospital on 3/5/22 due to wheezing
and they were informed by the hospital the resident had a fracture. She explained an additional
investigation was not done after learning of the resident's fracture. The RM indicated once the root cause
was determined, they did not continue investigating and nothing else was done after resident #40 returned
from the hospital. The RM stated the root cause analysis showed the resident refused to ask for help. She
did not explain how the resident would request help when he had severe cognitive impairment. The RM
noted, we could have done a more thorough investigation after we became aware the resident sustained a
fracture. The RM added, I can see where we can make some improvements after learning of the fracture.
Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Abuse and Neglect dated 12/28/21 read, The investigation
may include interviewing employees, residents or other witnesses to the incident. Interview all involved .
individually, not as a group, so that their descriptions of the incident can be compared to determine any
inconsistencies. Consider having each person write his or her memory of the event. If possible. Get signed
and dated statements from any witnesses.

Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to report an alleged violation of verbal abuse for
1 of 1 resident reviewed for abuse of a total sample of 48 residents, (#19).
Findings:
Review of resident #19's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
of stroke, legal blindness and pain. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated
[DATE] revealed a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 15/15 that indicated he was cognitively intact.
Review of the facility brochure in the admission packet titled, We Don't Tolerate Abuse! dated 4/19, read,
Verbal Abuse: Any use of oral, written, or gestured communication (including sounds) that willfully includes
disparaging and/or derogatory terms to persons or their families within their hearing distance, regardless of
age, ability to comprehend or disability
On 3/21/22 at 11:40 AM, resident #19 was in his room, lying in bed. He was alert and oriented, talkative,
and was listening to a television show. The resident said he had chronic back pain which was very severe at
times and he took pain medication every 6 hours. The resident spoke about the nurses at the facility who
referred to him as a drug addict, except for the nurse working today. He recalled the most recent time he
was called a drug addict was last night. The only nurse he could recall was Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
A. The resident indicated, this is abuse. The resident noted the last time he reported this allegation was 1 to
2 weeks ago and he had not been able to talk to anyone in administration regarding his concerns.
On 3/21/22 at 11:54 AM, the Social Services Director (SSD)/Abuse Coordinator, the Assistant Director of
Nursing (ADON), Risk Manager (RM) and Senior Director all indicated they were unaware of the verbal
abuse allegation for resident #19. The SSD said she would initiate an investigation.
On 3/23/22 at 2:34 PM, the SSD stated she obtained statements from resident #19 and Licensed Practical
Nurse (LPN) A. A review of LPN A's phone interview statement from 3/22/22 read, she has not worked with
resident since Thursday 3/17/22 .she is resident's regular nurse .since he came to facility he's been on prn
[as needed] pain medications .resident asks for his medication every 6 hours and does not appear in pain
.she simply reports that she has talked to resident about drug addition and that resident mentioned to her
that other staff call him a drug addict The SSD and RM acknowledged the nurse should have immediately
reported that staff called the resident a drug addict. The SSD did not know when LPN A became aware only
that she last worked on 3/17/22 and she should have reported this to the Unit Manager, DON,
Administrator, or the SSD.
On 3/23/22 at 5:45 PM, during a telephone interview, LPN A denied calling resident #19 a drug addict and
said he told her other staff had called him a drug addict. LPN A could not remember the date, only that he
reported this to her within the past month. LPN A stated, I did not feel he meant that was verbal abuse. The
LPN acknowledged she should have immediately reported to the SSD and should not have made the
determination that it was not verbal abuse on her own.

he is often in pain and the staff will not give him medication to address his pain he reported that he is often
classified as a drug addict

resident #19 at the facility on 2/14/22, 2/28/22 and 3/14/22. She said on 2/14/22, the resident told her the
staff referred to him as a drug addict. She said she did not report this as she thought he was being cynical
and did not link a specific staff or specify name. She stated, for the staff to say that would be appalling.

ensure that all identified incidents of alleged or suspected abuse/neglect, including injuries of unknown
origin, are promptly reported and investigated Procedure: If an employee received an allegation of abuse,

complete the investigations and that the care plan has been updated with any new interventions put into
place. The investigation team will determine whether further investigation is needed

state-required form, will serve as the written notice to be given to the resident and/or resident's
representative. Note: When a resident is temporarily transferred on an emergency basis to an acute care
center, this type of transfer is considered to be a facility-initiated transfer and a notice of transfer must be
provided to the resident and resident representative as soon as practicable. Copies of notices for
emergency transfers must also still be sent to the ombudsman, but they may be sent when practicable; 2.
