This survey cited 2 deficiencies, 2 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0600 Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, record review, and interviews, the facility's staff neglected to use a mechanical lift to transfer one (Resident #1) of the three sampled residents who required transfers with a mechanical lift. Staff G, a Certified Nursing Assistant, did not use a mechanical lift as ordered to transfer Resident #1 from the bed to the wheelchair. This deficient practice resulted in Resident #1 sustaining multiple fractures to the right lower extremity. Ninety-three residents in the facility required transfer using a mechanical lift.The findings include: Observation on 10/22/2025 at 10:22 AM, revealed Resident #1 receiving a bed bath without any apparent distress. The right leg was completely covered with a bandage wrap dressing. Record review revealed documentation indicating that on 10/9/2025 at 6:00 AM, Staff G, a Certified Nursing Assistant, informed Staff J, a Registered Nurse (RN) that Resident #1 had complained of leg pain after being transferred from bed to wheelchair. Review of the Nurses Notes created by Staff J, RN dated 10/09/2025 timestamped 6:58 AM indicated: Change in condition- while the patient was being transferred to her wheelchair to go to dialysis, the patient started complaining about pain on her right lower extremity. [provider] was called and a new order for a STAT X-Ray on the patient's right hip, knee, ankle, and foot was placed. When Resident #1 returned, Staff I, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), assessed the resident due to the reported pain and noted a light green discoloration below the knee. The resident reported pain to touch and movement, with no swelling noted and no fall reported; Staff I ordered an X-ray to rule out fracture or dislocation. On 10/10/2025, the X-ray results revealed a proximal right tibia fracture with diffuse osteopenia. Staff I, ARNP had the resident transferred to the hospital for further evaluation. The resident's hospital record showed acute comminuted fractures of the right fibular shaft and an acute oblique fracture of the right proximal tibia shaft. Review of Resident # 1's clinical records revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE], clinical diagnoses included but not limited to End Stage Renal Disease and Dependence on Renal Dialysis. Review of Resident #1's Physician's Orders Sheet for October 2025 revealed an order for fall precautions, safety precautions and to transfer patient with use of mechanical lift. Record review of Resident #1 's Significant Change Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed: Section C for Cognitive Patterns documented Brief Interview for Mental Status Score 03, on a 0-15 scale indicating the resident is cognitively impaired. Section GG for Functional Abilities documented supervision for eating, dependent on toileting, showering, lower body dressing, sit to lying for substantial assistance and upper body dressing for partial assistance. Record review of Resident #1's Care Plans Annual Review dated 09/12/25 revealed the resident is at risk of falls due to: Decreased mobility and unsteady gait. Interventions include but not limited to keeping floor clean, dry and free of debris: encourage use of non-skid soles and use of appropriate device with assistance for ambulation and transfers. Interview on 10/22/25 at 11:06 AM.

F 0600 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few informed that she has a broken leg. I always have assistance from another CNA when transferring her to the wheelchair. We place a pillow under her leg and use the [mechanical lift] to transfer her safely to the chair. I have never transferred residents who requires a [mechanical lift] without using it. Interview on 10/22/2025 at 12:02 PM, the Risk Manager revealed that on 10/09/2025 Resident #1 started complaining of pain in the long bone of the lower leg. An X-ray was attempted on the first day, but completed the following day, which revealed a fracture. The CNA had transferred the resident without using a lift, during which the resident's leg was twisted. The CNA admitted she is at fault and was suspended facing termination. The resident was sent to the hospital but did not undergo surgery due to age and overall health; an immobilizer was applied instead. The resident has since returned to the facility.Observation on 11/12/2025 at 12:35 PM, revealed Resident #1 sitting in a chair eating lunch, a cast was noted on Resident #1's right lower leg and a dressing on her left foot.Interview on 11/12/2025 at 11:20 AM, Staff G, CNA stated: In the early morning I entered the resident's room to prepare her for dialysis. I cleaned her up, and while turning her, she began screaming in pain. I had used proper body mechanics to transfer her from the bed to the wheelchair by holding the resident and placing one leg between the resident and twisting the resident into the chair. When I lifted her feet to place them on the footrests, she cried out in pain and kept moving her feet off the rests. I repositioned her feet and took her to the nurse . When I returned the following night, I made it clear that I had never dropped a resident. The resident was supposed to be transferred using a mechanical lift; however, I was only trained to transfer her from the bed to the wheelchair without using the lift. I understand that using the mechanical lift is a two-person procedure. I received my CNA license in December 2024. The facility has a document that provides instructions for each resident's care, but I did not review that paper for [Resident #1] at the time because I usually only read it for new residents. This was not my first time working with [Resident #1], and I was aware that she required a mechanical lift. Although the resident has dementia, she was usually compliant with care. I did not notice any discoloration or visible changes in her condition after the transfer. After the incident, I was sent home and asked to return the following week to complete an incident report. I was later given a 15-day suspension and subsequently terminated. I believe this incident could have been avoided if I had received proper training. Interview on 11/12/2025 at 12:40 PM Staff H, Registered Nurse (RN) Unit Manager stated: I have been the Unit Manager for three years. We do have patients who require the use of a mechanical lift for transfers. The CNAs are responsible for checking each patient's transfer order, which specifies how the patient should be transferred, whether by mechanical lift, minimal assistance, or other methods. If a patient normally transfers without the lift but feels tired or weak on a particular day, staff are instructed to use the lift for safety. The mechanical lift transfers always require two staff members. During change-of-shift rounds, CNAs are informed about each patient's transfer status, and there is also a transfer sheet available for reference. CNAs are expected to review the transfer sheet at the start of every shift. We conduct frequent in-service trainings and always encourage staff to use the lift whenever it is ordered. A return demonstration is required during training to ensure proper technique. We also held transfer training not long ago. The transfer form has always been in place.Interview on 11/12/2025 at 2:46 PM Staff I, APRN (Advanced Practice Registered Nurse) stated: I saw the resident after the incident was reported. An X-ray was performed, which showed a fracture, and the resident was sent to the hospital for further evaluation. I was informed that the resident had swelling and reported pain. I am not certain what specifically caused the fracture. I did not speak with the CNA involved, as she was not present at the time. The resident was prescribed Tylenol for pain, which she only experienced during (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105560 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 7 Printed: 05/28/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 105560 B.

The hospital decided not to perform surgery; the resident initially had a splint, which was later replaced with a cast.and is not receiving therapy due to the cast.Telephone interview on 12/18/2025 at 2:11 PM Staff J, RN revealed on 10/09/2025 at around 6:00 AM before Resident #1 left for dialysis; Staff G, CNA had the patient in the wheelchair and reported the patient was complaining of pain in the right leg and because Resident #1 was wearing pants she did not see the legs but gave Tylenol for pain, and the resident left for dialysis. I called [company] and reported the change in condition, and a stat X-ray was ordered.Review of the facility's policy and procedure regarding Suspected Adult, Disabled Person or Elderly Abuse/Neglect/ Exploitation 12/03/2004.Purpose: Residents have the right to be free from mental, physical, sexual, and verbal abuse, neglect, misappropriation of resident's property, corporal punishment, involuntary seclusion and exploitation. It is the policy of this facility to protect residents from real or perceived abuse, neglect or exploitation from anyone, including staff members, students, volunteers, consultants, other residents, staff of other agencies serving the residents, visitors, friends. family members or legal guardians, or other individuals.Policy: The facility will implement processes for screening and training employees on protection of neglect, mistreatment and misappropriation of property. This facility mandates that, under residents and for the prevention, identification, investigation, and reporting of abuse, the guidance of applicable laws, any healthcare worker having reasonable cause to believe that any person is in the state of abuse, exploitation or neglect shall report the information to the appropriate regulatory agency and necessary corrective action will be implemented.Review of the facility's policy titled- Subject; Patient Mechanical Lift - Proper Use in Resident Transfer; Effective: 4/6/2005.POLICY: It is the policy of CHS [Catholic Health Systems) Facilities that all resident transfers/lifting is done safely and appropriately to protect the employee and patient from injury. All patient lifting, shifting or transferring will be done with Mechanical Lifting Equipment when appropriate. Failure to follow the guidelines established by this policy will result in disciplinary action being taken.PURPOSE: An injury to a health care professional from patient transfer/lifting activities directly affects the quality of life for our staff members and patients. Therefore, it is crucial that healthcare professionals practice safe lifting, transporting and proper body mechanics at all times. Mechanical Patient Lifts are a key component in this effort.PROCEDURES: Patients who require a mechanical lifting device for transfers will be identified in the CNA module of the Facility's EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system.Throughout the facility there are certain patients who have been determined to require assistance for all moves. For the protection of the staff member as well as the patient a mechanical lifting device will be used in transferring these patients. The designated mechanical lifting device will be designated MANDATORY for use in moving the patient, due to their inability to assist effectively and safely during transfers.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few 11/13/2025 at 2:40 PM, Staff F Registered Nurse (RN) 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM shift stated: I worked the 7:00 AM to 3:00 AM shift on October 25th with her (Resident #1) on that day she was as normal as she usually is with her arms contracted. The report I received from night shift was that she had slight edema of her left arm; and when I rounded on her and gave her medications and took her blood sugar everything looked normal there was no bruising that I noticed or any pitting edema she also didn't seem to be in any pain. The CNA was able to change and reposition her there was no complaints. Staff F, RN was asked about the facility's policy and procedure if a resident that receives hospice services that is not on Crisis Care has a change in condition; Staff F, stated: We call Hospice to come and see the resident. When asked if Hospice staff came to the facility on that day to provide any type of care for Resident #1; Staff F stated: During my shift no. I was told by the night shift that Hospice was already made aware at the time and that there were no new orders that was on the 25th, that was from the report I received from the night shift on the 25th.During an interview on 11/13/2025 at 2:50 PM the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the facility is primarily responsible for all residents residing in the facility including the residents receiving hospice services (not Crisis Care) that has a change in condition: We call to make the Hospice Nurse aware of any situation and [healthcare company] first for orders to go through with the doctor as well. From my understanding I believe we would go to the Hospice nurses because they're on the same floor, and if not, we would reach out to the physician. The DON was asked if she would reach out to the Hospice physician or the Primary Care Physician. The DON stated: I believe it's the primary physician that we have here. The DON was asked if it was acceptable for a resident noted with swelling and pain to touch in a contracted extremity that gradually worsened over a 24-hour period not to be transferred and or receive emergency services for more than 36 hours from onset. The DON stated: if it was me I would notify [healthcare company] first and then if I'm made aware that we should notify the family, then I would go ahead and notify the family and if they had requested to send her to the hospital I think I would communicate with [healthcare company] or Hospice first and the physician to try to get everyone on the same page and then go through with sending the patient to the hospital if necessary. Regarding the need for a physician order to transfer a resident to receive higher level of care. The DON revealed: If it's an emergency case I don't believe so we would just notify the physician if it's a sudden change in the patient status, I believe we're able to go ahead and request emergency services and let the physician know. Most of the time if it's a gradual decrease in the patient's physical awareness or anything of that sort, usually we're always in contact with the physicians through the phone and they will usually order us to call emergency services or transport for the patient to go to a hospital. The DON was asked If the facility is primarily responsible for all the residents including residents receiving hospice services why hadn't the facility taken the initiative to seek higher level of care in a timely manner for Resident #1's change in condition that started on 10/24/25. The DON stated: In my in my opinion with Hospice patients it's important to kind of keep an eye on the patient; especially this specific patient, she's very weak, bedbound and she has contractures especially in her arms and they stay in fist like position close to her chest, and if I do notice that there is something that seems off with the patient or an injury of sorts especially with this patient, I think it would be necessary to get her to emergency services as quickly as we can considering she is on Hospice and pain management is probably our number one priority.On 11/13/2025 at 3:09 PM, Staff E, Attending Physician revealed the usual process is for the nurse to inform the doctor, who then provides orders, and to also notify the Hospice nurse as part of the communication protocol.

The wound care nurse assessed the resident that day and documented edema in the upper and lower extremities without distress, bruising, or other signs of trauma. Between 3:00 PM and 11:00 PM, swelling was noted, and the arm was elevated. The CNA observed that the resident's hand was no longer contracted and was lying flat. The hospice runner evaluated the resident and contacted the physician. An X-ray was initially planned at the facility, but the son requested that she be transferred to the hospital. A fracture was subsequently diagnosed at the hospital. The primary care physician was notified the following morning upon the resident's return. A root cause analysis was conducted, concluding that the fracture likely occurred during routine care or while placing a pillow under the arm. The analysis noted that the injury may not have been preventable given the resident's history of stiffness and contracted arms. On 11/13/2025 at 4:22 PM the DON revealed the resident sustained a fracture but has never experienced a fall and always remain in bed. She is a hospice patient and receives care from both hospice and facility staff. Edema was first noted in the resident's arm on 10/24/2025, at which time hospice was notified and a nurse assessed edema in the upper and lower extremities without distress, bruising, or other signs of trauma. On 10/25/2025, between 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM, slight edema was observed on the left side with no bruising, and the arm was elevated per physician orders.
