prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the Facility failed to complete post-fall documentation and implement
appropriate fall interventions for four Residents (R1, R2, R3 and R4) and monitor for post fall injuries for
three Residents (R2, R3 and R4) of four Residents reviewed for Falls in a sample of four. Findings
include:The Facility Fall Prevention Policy, revised 1/2025, documents: each Resident will be assessed for
fall risk and will receive care and services in accordance with their individualized level of risk to minimize
the likelihood of falls; a fall is an event in which an individual unintentionally comes to rest on the ground,
floor or other level and may be witnessed, reported or presumed when a Resident is found on the floor or
ground; the nurse will indicate on the Care Plan, the Resident's fall risk and initiate interventions on the
Resident's baseline Care Plan; provide interventions that address unique risk factors measured by the risk
assessment tool, medications, psychological, cognitive status or recent change in functional status; provide
additional interventions as directed by the Resident assessment, including assistive devices, increased
frequency of rounds, sitter, medication regimen review, low bed, alternative call light system, scheduled
ambulation or toileting, family/caregiver/Resident education or therapy services; interventions will be
monitored for effectiveness; and when a Resident falls the Facility will assess the Resident, complete
post-fall assessment, complete an incident report, notify physician/family, review Resident's Care Plan and
update as indicated and document all assessments and actions.The Facility Skin Assessment Policy,
revised 5/2025, documents: to perform a full body assessment as part of our systematic approach to
pressure injury prevention and management; the assessment may also be performed after a change of
condition; note any skin conditions such as redness, bruising, rashes, blisters, skin tears, open areas or
lesions; and document the date and time of assessment, observations, type of wound, describe wound
(measurements, color, type of tissue in wound bed, drainage, odor or pain) and any other information as
appropriate.1) R1's Minimum Data Set/MDS, dated [DATE], documents R1 is dependent on staff for
sit-to-lying, sit-to-standing, chair-to- bed transfer and that R1 is unable to ambulate ten feet.The Facility
Incidents by Incident Type Report, dated 4/1/25 through 7/17/25, documents falls for R1 (4/16/25 at 12:54
pm, 4/29/25 at 1:50 pm, 5/1/25 at 10:40 pm, 5/13/25 at 4:20 am, 5/17/25 at 8:45 am and 8:15 pm, 5/21/25

4:10 am). The Report also documents R1's bruise incidents (4/27/25 at 12:00 am, 6/11/25 at 1:41 am and
6/19/25 at 1:00 pm).R1's current Care Plan documents: impaired cognitive loss (to person, place and time)
related to Dementia; impaired vision; and requires staff assistance for Activities of Daily Living. R1's Care
Plan also documents fall interventions: bowel and bladder program (4/16/25); keep engaged I activity such
as coloring if does not want to go to bed (5/1/25); reorient to time as needed and when gets up during night
and thinks it is morning, allow R1to see it is dark outside and if R1 wants to stay up, allow to stay up and

Fall Report (#366), dated 4/29/25 at 1:41 pm, documents R4 was observed on the floor in R4's room. The
intervention was to redirect as needed. The Facility did not document neurological evaluations.R1's, R2's,
R3's and R4's Fall Reports were not completed in their entirety.On 7/17/25 at 2:50 pm, V2 (Director of
Nursing/DON) stated, I just started here in April of this year (4/2025). I am not sure where all the
neurological documentation is for all the falls for (R1 R2, R3 and R4). Nursing should be doing the
neurological checks for any un-witnessed fall and we keep them in a binder at the nurses station. When
(R1) fell while receiving one-on-one monitoring, we had to educate the staff because (R1) should have
been within arm's reach of the one-on-one staff and R1 should have not fallen. The staff left R1's presence
to grab something. Some of the interventions such as education, reminders or signs may not be
appropriate interventions because (R1, R2, R3 and R4) all have dementia and are cognitively impaired, so
they would fall again, doing the same thing as before because they do not remember. I am trying to teach
nursing to initiate appropriate and individual interventions for our Residents because some of these
Residents' falls could have been prevented if the right intervention was in place.
