Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM
and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, and staff interview, the facility failed to provide care and services to prevent the
decline in range of motion for 1 (Resident #29) of 2 sampled residents with functional limitation in range of
motion.
The findings included:
A review of the Restorative Nursing Programs health care policy (R-12) revised June 2018 provided by the
facility stated, Cypress Cove strives to provide maintenance and restorative services designed to maintain
or improve a resident's ability to the highest practicable level.
The procedure documented, Nursing personnel are training on basic, maintenance or restorative nursing
care that does not require the use of a qualified therapist or licensed nurse oversight. This training may
include maintaining proper positioning and body alignment, assisting residents with range of motion
exercises, performing passive range of motion for residents unable to actively participate.
Review of the clinical record for Resident #29 revealed an admission date of 8/3/22. Diagnoses included
Dementia, and muscle weakness.
The admission minimum data set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] noted the resident scored 00 on the
Brief Interview for Mental Status, which indicated severe cognitive impairment. Resident #29 required the
extensive assistance of two for bed mobility and was totally dependent on 2 persons for transferring,
dressing, and bathing. Resident #29 had no impairment of upper extremities including shoulder, elbow,
wrist, and hand.
The Quarterly MDS assessment with a target date of 11/10/23 noted Resident #29 had impaired range of
motion on both upper extremities (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand).
The care plan initiated on 12/6/20 and revised on 1/3/24 noted the resident had limited physical mobility
related to contractures (chronic loss of joint mobility) in the upper and lower extremities. The interventions
initiated on 12/6/20 included monitoring, documenting, and reporting as needed any signs and symptoms
of immobility; contractures forming or worsening.
A Social Service Progress note dated 4/26/2023 documented family in agreement for Occupational Therapy
to evaluate for wheelchair positioning and contracture management. Team in agreement with plan of care.
On 1/16/24 at 10:48 a.m., Resident #29 was observed in bed. Resident #29's right and left hands were
closed in a fist. Resident #29 was not able to respond to attempt to interview. Resident #29 was not wearing
any hand splints or devices.
On 1/16/24 at 11:54 a.m., Resident #29 was observed sitting up in her Broda (specialized positioning)
chair. Resident #29's left, and right hands remained closed in a fist. Resident #29 was not wearing any

On 1/18/24 at 10:11 a.m., the Director of Restorative Services said Resident #29 was not on a restorative
program. She confirmed there were no interventions in place addressing the resident's contractures. She
said nursing staff should do light range of motion and keep the resident's nails trimmed. She said, I would
think there should be specific interventions. We have had others with foam rolls, cones, but I don't see
anything in place in this care plan.
On 1/18/24 at 11:04 a.m., the DOR verified the lack of screening for Resident #29. The DOR said the
resident should have been screened in July 2023, October 2023, and January 2024.

strengthening exercise, massage and wash cloth rolls for Resident #29.
On 1/18/24 at 12:42 p.m., the Occupational Therapist verified Resident #29 was not receiving services for
the hand contractures.

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
observation, record review, review of facility's policies and procedures, residents, resident's representatives
and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure adequate supervision to ensure safety and prevent falls for
3 (Residents #42, #8 and #206) of 3 residents reviewed for falls.
The findings included:
The facility policy Fall Review Program (revised 7/23) documented the facility strives to identify those
residents at risk for falls, to provide a system of evaluation, reevaluation, and implementation of measures
to reduce the potential for falls/additional falls. All residents will be reviewed for fall risk on
admission/readmission and after an actual fall, and quarterly thereafter.
For residents with 2 or more falls within the past 30 days will be placed on the Falling Star Program:
A white round magnet with a red star will be placed on the residents door frame.
The resident must not be left alone during toileting, grooming and bathing.
Resident placement on the Falling Star program will be incorporated on the resident's care plan.
Review of the clinical record for Resident #42 revealed an admission date of 9/20/23. Diagnoses included
Parkinson's disease, muscle weakness and difficulty walking.
The admission MDS (standardized assessment tool that measures health status in nursing home residents)
with an assessment reference date of 10/3/23 showed resident #42 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status
score of 12 out of 15 which indicated moderate cognitive impairment.
The care plan initiated on 9/25/23 showed Resident #42 was a high risk for falls related to gait/balance
problems and a history of falls.

prevent recurrence, assist with ambulation.
On 1/16/24 at 3:14 p.m., the door to Resident #42's room was closed, there was a white circle with a red
star on the door frame.
On 1/16/24 at 3:45 p.m., in an interview Registered Nurse (RN) Supervisor Staff H said the red star on the
door frame indicated the falling star program. Staff H said the Falling Star program meant the resident was
not to be left alone in the bathroom. When asked what frequent rounding meant as a fall intervention she
said, we round all the time, and we look in the rooms as we walk by but there was no documentation of the
rounds. The RN said there was no schedule for the frequent rounding.
On 1/17/24 at 9:04 a.m., in an interview RN Staff E said the star on the door frame indicated the falling Star
program. Staff E said it meant the resident was a fall risk. She said, I do round all the time, and on the night
shift the residents are checked every hour.
On 1/17/24 at 9:22 a.m., in an interview Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Staff F said the falling star
program meant a resident was a fall risk and you don't leave the resident alone in the bathroom.
On 1/17/24 at 2:24 p.m., in an interview the Assistant Skilled Nursing Facility Administrator Risk Manager
said, The process when a resident had a fall is we review the documentation, speak to the staff who may
have seen or heard anything, and talk to the resident. We find the most applicable intervention and update
the care plan, we put a new intervention in place. The Falling Star Program is used when someone has had
more than 3 falls in 30 days. It means the resident is not to be left alone in the bathroom, that is the main
part of the Falling Star program. When asked what else the staff are expected to do for someone on the
falling star program, she said, I don't know. I will have to check on that.
On 1/18/24 at 9:22 a.m., in an interview the Director of Nursing (DON), said the Falling Star program was
initiated if the resident has had two or more falls within 30 days. It alerts the staff the resident is a fall risk. It

in an unsafe area alone. The staff are not to leave the resident alone when grooming, bathing, or sitting on
the side of the bed.
The DON said increased rounding meant the CNAs do every two-hour rounding and the nurses are
encouraged to do every two hours rounds so someone is laying eyes on the resident every hour. The DON
said there was no documentation of the increased rounding and no way of knowing if the increased
rounding was effective or ineffective. She said on the incident report the nurse puts an intervention in place
and then the Interdisciplinary Team goes over it and we see if the intervention is effective for the resident or
needs to be changed.
The DON said Resident #42 had not come to the realization that he needs help. It is very hard for him to
come to us and ask for help. She said I would encourage him to watch TV in the day room, but he refuses. I
spoke with his wife a week or so ago about having a companion to sit with him, but she won't pay for it. The
DON said the resident's wife has a schedule for her visits and she can't come and sit with him more
frequently. She said We just asked his wife to remind him over and over not to get up without using the call
light. Our next intervention would have to be a 1-1 sitter at specific times. The DON agreed the current
interventions were not effective in preventing falls for Resident #42.
Review of the facility Falling Star Program revised June 2018 revealed After a resident sustains a second
fall within a 30-day period, a red star will be placed on the doorframe of the resident's room. Interventions
included: Not to be left unattended during toileting, grooming, bathing, sitting on the edge of the bed, and
dressing; will be assisted with all transfers and ambulation.
Review of the Caution and Fall Program revised February 2020, Residents at risk for falls will be identified
to all staff members through a yellow dot on the doorframe. Residents should not be left completely
unattended during toileting, grooming, bathing, and dressing. Staff should remain in the vicinity but do not
have to be within arm's reach or within view of resident.

facility.
Review of the hospital record revealed resident #206 suffered from dizziness for one year and multiple falls.
His hemoglobin in the hospital was low and the resident suffered from delirium (episodes of confusion). The
resident was admitted to the facility for rehabilitation.
The facility's comprehensive assessment with a reference date of 12/1/23 revealed an elderly resident,
admitted on [DATE] who required assistance for walking. The diagnoses included anemia (low red blood
levels) and orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure during position changes.)
Review of the facility progress notes revealed Resident #206 fell 3 times at the facility: 11/18/23, 12/11/23,
and 1/2/24.

he fell. The resident tried to make a phone call and fell. The facility steps to prevent recurrence were apply
lotion for skin hydration and place a Call Don't Fall sign in the bedroom and bathroom to remind the
resident to use the call bell for assistance.
Other interventions initiated on 11/20/23 to prevent falls were anticipating and meeting needs;

Review of the fall incident on 12/11/23 at 6:00 a.m. revealed the resident was alone in the bedroom when
he fell. The resident lost his balance. The facility step to prevent recurrence was increased rounding. The
care plan was updated to include placing a sign to remember to position foley bag (drainage bag from
catheter inserted in the bladder) accordingly prior to ambulation.
Review of the fall incident on 1/2/24 at 5:00 p.m. revealed the resident was alone in the bedroom when he
fell. The resident stated he wanted to sit on the floor. After staff got him sitting on the bed, he started to
slouch forward, so they laid him down quickly. After the resident returned to baseline, he started saying he
fell off the bed. The staff noted this was switching stories. The steps taken to prevent a recurrence: assist
with ambulation, which the resident was previously care planned for and labs ordered to rule out a urinary
tract infection (UTI).
Review of the facility progress notes from November 2023 - January 2024 revealed Resident #206 suffered
periods of confusion and pulled out his urinary catheter twice while at the facility. The psychiatrist noted the
resident suffered from dementia, impaired ability to remember, think or make decisions that interfere with
doing everyday activities.
Review of the care plans did not include increased supervision for the resident.
Review of the facility progress notes from November 2023 - January 2024 revealed the resident suffered
gait, balance, and wandering issues, sometimes wandering into the bedroom of others. The staff were to
assist the resident as necessary for transferring. There were no directions for increased supervision of the
resident.
Review of the Standard of Care Agenda dated 1/4/2024 revealed the facility removed Resident #206 from
the falling star program. He has had 1-3 falls in the last 30 days. The Resident is ambulating independently.
Delirium seems to have cleared.
On 1/16/24 at 10:32 a.m., during an interview with Resident #206 in his bedroom, he said he fell at home
but did not recall any falls at the facility. The resident's room was the very last room at the end of the hall
farthest from the nursing station. The call bell was in reach and the Call Don't Fall sign was on the wall near
the bed.
On 1/17/24 at 8:33 a.m., Resident #206 said his memory is not too good and he cannot remember some
things that are said. He said he lived with his wife and wants to go home. He said he always gets up and
uses the bathroom by himself with the walker if he remembers. He said he only falls when he trips on
something. During the interview, the resident was lying in bed wearing street clothes and shoes. The
resident's walker was in the doorway of the bathroom approximately 5-10 feet from the resident. The
resident said he left the walker in the bathroom doorway. The wheelchair was in the room next to the
credenza, but not in reach of the resident. He said he did not remember falling at the facility. He said if he
needed to go to the bathroom he would just get up and use the walker and go himself and would not call
the staff to help him. He said they don't come in and check on him very often.
On 1/17/24 at 9:36 a.m., observed yellow dot on the doorframe of the resident's room.
