she was upset that she was not notified immediately that R1 had bruising and swelling to R1's leg. I did not
here from the facility about (R1's) injury. The first I knew of it was when I was told by hospice. I let
(V2/Previous Director of Nursing) know that I was not happy about the lack of communication. On 8/5/25 at
1:55 PM, V15/Hospice Registered Nurse stated that on 7/23/25 at 10:59 AM V15 talked to V2/Previous
Director of Nursing about R1's injury and what should be done. V13/Nurse Practitioner had come in to
examine R1 and had decided that an x-ray of R1's leg needed done. V13 had said that R1 could be sent to
the emergency room for the x-ray, or it could be ordered to be done in house. V13 said that V17/R1's Power
of Attorney should make the final decision. That is when V15 found out that V17 was not notified of R1's
injury by the facility. V15 called V17 to discuss R1's injury and V17 was upset that she had not been called
earlier by the facility. V15 also stated Although (R1) is receiving hospice care (V17) should have been
notified by the facility of (R1's) injury. I was told the injury was found around 5:45 AM on 7/23/25. I did not
talk to (V17) until around 11:00 AM on 7/23/25. On 8/6/25 at 12:47 PM, V2/Previous Director of Nursing
stated (V11/Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) was the nurse that was working when (R1's) injury was noted
on (R1's) leg. (V11) reported the injury to hospice, and (V18/Assistant Director of Nursing) but did not
report the injury to (V17/R1's POA). When I ask (V11) why she did not call (V17), (V11) said that she was
used to working in another state where hospice would contact the POA. I told (V11) that was not the
protocol here. I told her that she should have notified the POA immediately.
