Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to accurately assess and implement
appropriate interventions for two residents (#2 and #8) of six residents sampled for accidents. Findings
included:
On 07/28/25 at 9:53 a.m. Resident #2 was observed sitting in a wheelchair alone at table in the common
area between rooms [ROOM NUMBERS]. The resident’s wheelchair was pushed up to table with
both wheelchair brakes in a locked position. The resident was observed pushing at the table. During the
observation, Staff N, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) reported the resident’s diagnosis and was
Spanish-speaking only.
On 07/28/25 at 11:04 a.m. Staff L, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) was observed unlocking both of
Resident #2’s wheelchair brakes. The staff member reported going to take the resident to assist with
toileting and confirmed unlocking the brakes on each side of the wheelchair. Staff L stated the resident
moves arms and legs when sitting at tables.
On 07/29/25 at 11:12 a.m. Resident #2 was observed sitting at the table in the common area, facing
resident rooms with back to hallway, the brakes on each side of the resident’s wheelchair were
locked.
On 07/31/25 at 8:58 a.m. Resident #2 was observed sitting at the table in the common area in a wheelchair
with the brakes locked on each side of the chair. Staff S, Restorative CNA, confirmed both brakes were
locked. Staff L stated the resident was able to unlock the brakes. The resident stated “no”
when asked if (pronoun) could unlock the brakes. Staff Y, CNA translated and asked the resident if
(pronoun) could unlock brakes, again the resident said “no”. The resident did respond
appropriately in Spanish when this writer said hello. Staff N, LPN reported the resident could unlock the
brakes, does it better in the evenings, doesn’t do it in the mornings. Staff N stated they lock both
brakes and push Resident #2 into the common area to watch for (pronoun) safety.
Review of Resident #2’s admission Record showed the resident was admitted on [DATE] with a
primary diagnosis of subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing (of) displaced
intertrochanteric fracture of right femur. The record included additional diagnoses not limited to
Parkinson’s disease without dyskinesia without mention of fluctuations, unspecified severity
unspecified dementia without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and
anxiety, difficulty in walking not elsewhere classified, subsequent encounter (of) unspecified fall, and
psychotic disorder with delusions due to known physiological condition.
Review of Resident #2’s hospital History and Physical, dated 07/06/25, showed the resident
presented to the facility after being found on the floor by family. The Xray results revealed an acute
displaced intertrochanteric proximal right femur neck fracture.
Review of Resident #2’s 5-day Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed the
resident was interviewed for a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score. The resident scored
“00” of 15 indicating a severe cognitive impairment. The functional abilities assessment
revealed the resident had bilateral lower extremity range of motion limitations and was dependent upon

During an interview on 07/30/2025 at 12:3 p.m., Staff Z, CNA, stated Resident #8 is incontinent and needs
help with going to the bathroom, she is confused a lot. “I think she is a fall risk because she tries to
get out of bed by herself. She has mats in her room and a anti-lock thing on chair. We also keep her bed
low. I am not aware of her having any falls.”
During an interview on 07/30/2025 at 12:16 p.m., Staff U, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) stated Resident
#8 is a long-term resident who is on hospice. She had a fall with a brain bleed before she was admitted .
She has had a few falls since being here with her most recent being on the 26th. We do frequent rounds,
make sure she has been toileted, if she is in her room. We make sure everything is in reach of her.
Sometimes we put her in the common area, and we ensure that her brakes on her wheelchair are locked.
Interventions are set in place at admission. If a resident comes in because of a fall we make sure that their
bed is in a low position, fall mats and keep them in a room near the nurse’s station. Resident #8 was
not her resident when she fell for the first time at the facility. Resident #8 was on a different unit further away
from the nurse’s station.
During an interview on 07/30/2025 at 2:34 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON), stated Resident #8 has had
three falls at the facility. After the first fall they called and spoke with her son who told them she has been
battling vertigo for 20-30 years but did not have an official diagnosis. Resident #8 will sometimes want to
get up and change positions because of that she falls. Her cognition fluctuates a lot. “When she first
got here, she only wanted to stay in bed. It was a surprise when she wanted to get out of bed.” In the
beginning of May Resident #8 was found on her back on the floor outside of her room very close to the
bathroom. She told us she was going to the bathroom and slipped and fell. Resident #8 had to go to the
hospital after the fall at the beginning of May and was admitted because she had a subdural hematoma that
was new. Their risk manager did the investigation. “Alot of times we pre deem residents as a fall risk.
They do fall risk assessments at admission and after each fall.” Her initial care plan interventions
were “use call lights, no skid footwear. At the time of her admission we did not feel she was a fall
risk.” After a resident falls, we update their care plans.
During an interview on 07/30/2025 at 5:30 p.m., the Risk Manager stated on 05/03/2025 staff observed
Resident #8 lying on her back on the floor in her room. They evaluated her found a “bump” on
her head. They notified the physician and transferred her to the emergency room (ER). She was out of the
facility for a few days and then returned to them on 05/06/2025. At the time of this fall she reviewed the care
plan and Resident #8 was care planned for call light in reach and no skid footwear. At the time of her
admission we thought those were appropriate interventions for her. They

Residents Affected - Some
changed Resident #8’s care plan when she got back and added therapy screen to evaluate her,
anti-rollback to her wheelchair, since there was potential for her to stand. Assist her to the common area, for
socialization and activities. When in her room bed in lower positions and floor mats at the bedside. We
added one way glide pad to her wheelchair. We also moved Resident #8’s room in front of the
nurse’s station. She called Resident #8’s son with the DON, who told them Resident #8 had
a history of vertigo, that was never really diagnosed. Resident #8 had another fall on May 31st. It was an
unwitnessed fall. Resident #8 was observed sitting on the floor in her room. Ten minutes earlier Resident #8
was observed lying in bed in lowest position. Her call light was not activated. Resident #8 was not able to
verbalize what she was trying to do. That’s when they added for staff to offer toileting assistance, at
the time she was incontinent and was not aware of needs to void. We also added offer routinely to go to the
bathroom “we thought that maybe she was trying to get up and go to the bathroom.” We also
added another therapy screen and requested a pharmacy review. Resident #8 had another fall on July 26th,
and the investigation is ongoing. Nurse stated Resident #8 went to music program and she sat her in the
common area after. The nurse left for about five minutes and when she went around the corner, she saw
Resident #8 sitting on the floor. Resident #8 did not have any injuries. Resident #8 told the nurse, she saw a
piece of paper and leaned forward, and just bounced out of the chair. She reviewed the interventions in the
care plan with the nurse, and everything was in place on her wheelchair. After this fall they added, keeping
items within reach and having staff lock the wheelchair brakes, “that may keep her from
bouncing.” They discuss falls at their morning meetings and Resident #8 was just added to the list to
go over her case.
Review of the undated facility policy titled “Fall Prevention and Management” revealed,
“Policy:
It is the policy of our community to ensure a safe environment with least restrictive measures while
promoting the highest possible level of independence and quality of life.
Purpose:
A fall prevention program is used to provide a safe environment for resident of the Health Care Center. This
program is designed to identify residents at risk of falls; define interventions for the prevention of falls;
improvement quality assurance measures to monitor progress; and provide ongoing staff education.
Definition:
This community follows the long-term care/CMS guidelines for the definition of a fall.
CMS RAI definition of a fall-Unintentional change in position coming to rest on the ground, floor or onto the
next lower surface (e.g., onto a bed, chair, or bedside mat). The fall may be witnessed, reported by the
resident or an observer or identified when a resident is found on the floor or ground. Falls include any fall,
no matter whether it occurred at home, while out in the community, and an acute hospital or a nursing
home. Falls are not a result of an overwhelming external force (e.g., a resident pushes another resident).
An intercepted fall occurs when the resident would have fallen if he or she had not caught him/herself or
had not been intercepted by another person-this is still considered a fall.

CMS understands that challenging a residence balance and training him/her to recover from a loss of
balance is an intentional therapeutic intervention and does not consider anticipated losses of balance that
occur during supervised therapeutic interventions as intercepted falls.
admission:
Residents Affected - Some
1. All residents will be assessed for the risk of falling using a standardized fall assessment.
2. The fall risk evaluation will be completed upon admission, quarterly, annually, and/or if a changing
condition requiring completion of a new MDS occurs (significant change MDS) and after every fall. An
evaluation of all the casual factors leading to a resident fall should be completed.
3. The baseline care plan will address interventions based on the fall risk evaluation results, history, and
resident and resident representative input.
4. All residents should be considered at risk for falls for 72 hours following admission due to change in
environment.
5. Residents who are identified as high risk will have a prevention care plan in place and individualized
precautions will be noted to avoid falls.
6. Shift report will include communication to all nursing staff regarding fall risk for new residents or residents
who experience a change in condition.
7. Nursing assistants will be made aware of residents at high risk for falls via resident care information
records found in the EMR [electronic medical record] or other tool.
Assessment and care planning:
1. the baseline care plan will be followed (and updated as necessary) until the MDS is completed. Following
completion of the MDS, if triggered the CAA [Care Area Assessment] for falls will be completed and
appropriate interventions will be implemented in the care plan.
2. LCS Does [sic] not recommend the use of restraints as a fall prevention strategy. As noted in the State
Operations Manual (Appendix PP), “there is no evidence that the use of physical restraints including
but not limited to bed rails and position change alarms will prevent or reduce falls. Additionally falls that
occur while a person is physically restrained often result in more serious injuries (e.g., strangulation,
entrapment).”
Steps following a fall:
1. Head to toe evaluation by a licensed nurse is completed before the resident is moved.
2. If the fall is unwitnessed neurological assessments will be conducted according to the neurological
assessment policy.
3. Emergency care will be provided to the resident following appropriate procedures if necessary.
Emergency care will be provided to any resident who has had head trauma unless the physician, resident,
or family refuses such treatment.

the resident was admitted on [DATE] with a primary diagnosis of unspecified peripheral vascular disease.
The resident's diagnoses included but not limited to cellulitis of left lower limb, unspecified systemic lupus
erythematosus, unspecified site unspecified osteoarthritis, and cervical region spinal stenosis. Review of
Resident #38's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed the resident's Brief Interview for Mental
Status (BIMS) score was 14 of 15 indicating an intact cognitive status. The assessment revealed the
resident had pain in the five days prior to the assessment, had not limited the resident's sleeping,
rehabilitation therapy or day-to-day activities. The resident rated the worst pain felt was 8 of 10, 10 being
the worst. On 07/30/25 at 1:28 p.m. Resident #38 explained (pronoun) was not getting pain medication on

observations, interviews and record review, the facility did not ensure timely administration of medications,
as prescribed by the medical provider, and did not ensure medications were administered by a medical
professional for one Resident (#106) out of one resident reviewed. The facility also failed to administer
scheduled psychotropic medication per physician orders for one resident (#110) out of five medication
administration observations. Findings included: 1. On 07/28/25 at 2:35 p.m., an interview was conducted
with Resident #106 and their family member. Resident #106 stated to speak with their family member due

resident was not being administered blood pressure (BP) medications on a timely basis. Resident #106's
family member explained Resident #106 had many issues with BP being high and had a systolic reading of
200 multiple times. The family member said Resident #106 is supposed to be provided Losartan 50
milligrams (MG) twice a day, as needed, anytime the residents had a systolic BP of 160 or greater. Resident
#106's family member said they had given their personal prescription of hydralazine to Resident #106
whenever the resident's systolic BP was over 170. Resident #106's family member said they sometimes
wait over an hour for the resident's medications to be administered. A review of documentation provided by
the family member revealed a recent recording of a BP of 217/91 and then provided a dose of hydralazine.
On 07/28/25 at 2:55 p.m., a follow-up interview was conducted with Resident #106 and family member. The
family member said Resident #106's medications are to be administered every 6 hours but will
self-administer the resident's hydralazine after it has been one in a half to two hours after the medications
are passed due. The family member said Resident #106 is given hydralazine from previously prescribed
medications. The family member said the nursing staff know Resident #106 is being provided the
self-administered hydralazine. The family member stated, when they come late to give the medications, I tell
them I gave it to the resident half an hour ago and not to give the resident a second dose. The family
member confirmed the nursing staff has advised the family member not to do that, but the family member
tells them they should have been on time with administering Resident #106's medications.? A review of
Resident #106's admission Record revealed an admission date of 07/22/2025 with diagnoses of muscle
weakness, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism, chronic pain and difficulty in walking.A review of Resident
#106's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 07/29/25, in section C - Cognitive Patterns

intact. On 07/28/25 at 3:00 p.m., an interview with Staff I, Unit Manager (UM) was conducted and she said
she does not know of any residents who self-administer medications. She stated none of the residents on
her unit have been evaluated to self-administer medications. On 07/28/25 at 3:15 p.m., an interview with the
Director of Nursing (DON) was conducted and she said she was not aware of Resident #106's family
member self-administering medications due to late medication administration. On 07/28/25 at 3:25 p.m. an
interview with the DON was conducted and she said she talked to Resident #106's family member who
confirmed giving extra doses of hydralazine. She said the family member confirmed he made staff aware of
him self-administering the medication and has asked for the BP monitoring to be changed from six hours to
four hours daily. The DON said they reached out to Resident #106's physician to see if the order can be
changed. She said she expected the nursing staff to document when the physician is spoken with. A review
of Resident #106's medical record did not reveal documentation related to notifying the physician of late
administration of medications and the reasoning for the late administration of medications. A review of

Review of Resident #11’s lab results revealed 07/25/25 Wound Culture: Heavy pseudomonas
aeruginosa (Sens: aztreonam), Moderate E.coli.
During an interview on 07/31/2025 at 10:50 a.m., the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) stated she is
the one who decides what type of precautions, if any, a resident should be on. Residents who have
indwelling devices, wounds with heavy draining that cannot be contained in a dressing, or they have a
history of multi drug resistant organisms are put onto enhanced barrier precautions. Residents with wounds
that have Methicillin/oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Extended-spectrum
beta-lactamases (ESBL), Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and certain bacteria would be put on
contact precautions. Residents with a surgical wound that is not draining would not be put on any barrier
precautions. There is a bandage covering the surgical wound. “We follow the physicians orders and a
lot of times they don’t want us to mess with the area. As long as the wound is not draining, they
would not be put on any kind of barrier precautions.” Resident #11 had a wound culture done on
07/25/25 and they got the results on 07/28/25. The results came back positive for pseudomonas and
Escherichia coli (E. coli) in the wound. That can be from contamination. Staff would need to be educated on
hand hygiene. Resident #11 came in with a surgical wound. She came in with an aqua cell dressing. She
was not on any precautions. I was out of on medical leave when she admitted to the facility so I’m
not sure if her wound had drainage at that time. Resident #11 was put on contact precautions on 07/30/25
because of her lab results and her wound is draining.
During an interview on 07/31/2025 at 11:22 a.m., Staff K, Registered Nurse (RN), Nurse Manager, stated
residents with wound drainage, or any tube would be put on enhanced barrier precautions. If it is a dry
wound, she would not put the resident on barrier precautions. Surgical wounds do not get any precautions
unless it is draining. Contact precautions are mostly infections, like contact with E.coli, or pneumonia. They
can also come in on contact isolation from the hospital and she would look at the admission forms and look
at the discharge notes. Resident #11 has a right hip surgical wound. The nurse called her the last time she
was doing a dressing change and noticed it was red and draining so they did a culture, and it came back
positive for pseudomonas and Escherichia coli (E. coli). It could be from stool, the wound not being cleaned
correctly, it could be from the linen, or it could be from their clothing. She was not on any precautions when
she was admitted .
The facility was asked to provide a policy related to enhanced barrier precautions and it was not provided.
4. On 07/28/25 at 11:40 a.m. an observation was made of Resident #104’s shared bathroom. The
observation revealed a large urinary catheter drainage bag hanging from the shower’s handrail,
urine was observed in the tubing, and the bag was near other items stored in the shower.
An observation and interview were conducted on 07/28/25 at 11:46 a.m. with Staff P, Certified Nursing
Assistant (CNA) of the urinary drainage bag in the shower. Staff P observed the drainage bag hanging from
the handrail and stated it was Resident #104s bag.

displaced fracture of base of neck of right femur subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine
healing, and unspecified subsequent encounter fall on same level.

Review of Resident #38’s admission Record showed the resident was admitted on [DATE]. The
record included diagnoses not limited to unspecified peripheral vascular disease and cellulitis of left lower
limb.
Review of the Skin & Wound Evaluation, effective 7/22/25 at 11:31 a.m. revealed the resident had a left
medial proximal malleolus venous ulcer that was present on admission. The wound measured 3.6 x 2.4 x
0.2 centimeter (cm), with 50% granulation and 50% slough, moderate serosanguineous exudate, and
erythema of surrounding tissue. The treatment consisted of enzymatic debridement, calcium alginate, and a
silicone secondary dressing.
On 07/28/25 at 9:39 a.m. Staff K, Registered Nurse (RN) Manager was observed placing a PPE caddy
outside Resident #38’s door. The staff member stated on 7/28/25 at 9:41 a.m. that (pronoun)
decides who gets put on Enhanced Barrier Precautions based on wound care providers documentation,
Resident #38 had a vascular wound that the wound providers visited last Tuesday (7/22/25) and the staff
member had reviewed last night.
On 07/28/25 at 9:45 a.m. Staff O, CNA was observed dressing in a PPE gown outside of Resident
#38’s room, the staff member reported being in the room this morning without PPE, prior to the
placement of the PPE cart, and did not know how long the resident had a wound.
On 07/28/25 at 4:06 p.m. Resident #38 was observed with a dressing to left lower leg dated 07/27/25 and
initialed “MV”.
During an interview on 07/31/25 at 11:22 a.m. the IP stated the CDC recommends the use of EBPs to
prevent infection to the resident, they aren’t infected but we may be infected. The IP stated anybody
with an indwelling catheter, wound vacuum (vac), percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG),
peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC)/midline, Jackson Pratt (JP) drain, (and/or) any type of drain
should be placed on EBP. She stated anybody with a wound with a lot of drainage that cannot be contained
with a dressing, if they are draining a lot they would be exposed and then placed on EBP. Supervisors know
when to put (a resident) on EBP and when they have a lot of drainage that cannot be contained by a
dressing, moderate or severe drainage, so there’s a risk of the drainage causing the dressing to fall
off, get saturated and the dressing falls off. The IP reviewed the EBP policy stating Resident #38 should
have been on EBP prior (to observation), EBP should have be placed at admission. The IP stated during an
admission nurses can place a resident on barrier precautions.

resistant organisms (MDRO) to residents.” The policy interpretation and implementation included but
not limited to:
1. Enhanced barrier precautions (EBPs) are used as an infection prevention and control intervention to
reduce the spread of multi-drug resist organisms (MDROs) to residents.
Residents Affected - Some
2. EBPs employ targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident care activities when contact
precautions do not otherwise apply.
a. Gloves and gowns are applied before performing the high-contact resident care activity (as opposed to
before entering the room).
3. Examples of high-contact resident care activities requiring the use of gown and gloves for EBP's include:
a. Dressing;
b. Bathing/ showering;
c. Transferring;
d. Providing hygiene;
e. Changing linens;
f. Changing briefs or assisting with toileting;
g. Device care or use (central line, urinary catheter, feeding tube, tracheostomy/ ventilator, etc.); and
h. Wound care (any skin opening requiring a dressing).
5. EBPs are indicated (when contact precautions do not otherwise apply) for residents with wounds and/ or
indwelling medical devices regardless of MDRO colonization.
6. EBPs remain in place for the duration of the resident stay or until resolution of the wound or
discontinuation of the indwelling medical device that places them increased risk.
9. Staff are trained prior to caring for residents on EBPs.
10. Signs are posted in the door or wall outside the resident room indicating the type of precautions and
PPE required.
11. PPE is available near or outside of the resident rooms.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
1. Multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) transmission is common in skilled nursing facilities, contributing to
substantial resident morbidity and mortality and increased health care costs.
2. Enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) alright an infection control intervention designed to reduce
transmission of resistant organisms that employs targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident
care activities.
3. EBP may be indicated (when contact precautions do not otherwise apply) for residents with any of the
following:
a. Wounds are indwelling medical devices, regardless of MDR O colonization status;
b. Infection or colonization with an MDR O.
4. Effective implementation of BP requires staff training on the proper use of personal protective equipment
(PPE) and the availability of PPE and hand hygiene supplies at the point of care.
The guidance described Enhanced Barrier Precautions:
“Expand the use of PPE and refer to the use of gown and gloves during high-contact resident care
activities that provide opportunities for transfer of MDROs to staff hands and clothing. MDROs may be
indirectly transferred from resident-to-resident during these high-contact care activities. Nursing home
residents with wounds and indwelling medical devices are at especially high risk of both acquisition of and
colonization with MDROs. The use of gown and gloves for high-contact resident care activities is indicated,
when Contact Precautions do not otherwise apply, for nursing home residents with wounds and/or
indwelling medical devices regardless of MDRO colonization as well as for residents with MDRO infection
or colonization.”
Examples of high-contact resident care activities requiring gown and glove use for Enhanced Barrier
Precautions include:
- Dressing
- Bathing/showering
- Transferring
- Providing hygiene
- Changing linens
- Changing briefs or assisting with toileting
- Device care or use: central line, urinary catheter, feeding tube, tracheostomy/ventilator
- Wound care: any skin opening requiring a dressing.
“Because Enhanced Barrier Precautions do not impose the same activity and room placement
restrictions as Contact Precautions, they are intended to be in place for the duration of a resident's

stay in the facility or until resolution of the wound or discontinuation of the indwelling medical device that
placed them at higher risk.”
The CDC guidance revealed when implementing EBP signage should also clearly indicate the high-contact
resident care activities that require the use of gown and gloves and to make PPE, including gowns and
gloves, available immediately outside of the resident room.
Review of the policy – Infection Prevention and Control Program, revised on October 2018, showed
“An infection prevention and control program (IPCP) is established and maintained to provide a safe,
sanitary, and comfortable environment and to prevent the development and transmission of communicable
diseases and infections.”
1. The infection prevention and control program is developed to address the saw this specific infection
control needs and requirements identified in the facility assessment and the infection control risk
assessment. The program is reviewed annually and updated as necessary.
2. The Program is based on accepted national infection prevention and control standards.
3. The infection prevention and control program is a facility wide effort involving all disciplines and
individuals and is an integral part of the quality assurance and performance improvement program.
11. Prevention of Infection:
a. Important facets of infection prevention include:
(1) identifying possible infections or preferential complications of existing infections;
(2) instituting measures to avoid complications or dissemination;
(3) educating staff and ensuring that they adhere to proper techniques and procedures;
(4) communicating the importance of standard precautions and cough etiquette to visitors and family
members;
(5) enhancing screening for possible significant pathogens;
(6) immunizing residents and staff to prevent illness;
(7) implementing appropriate isolation precautions when necessary; and
(8) following established general and disease specific guidelines such as those of the Centers for Disease
Control (CDC).
