This survey cited 2 deficiencies, 1 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 0689 Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident was transferred in a safe manner for 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for safety in the sample of 3. This failure resulted in R1 sustaining a fractured right ankle. This past non-compliance occurred from 8/21/25 to 8/29/25.The findings include:R1's admission record shows she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including muscle weakness. The 9/4/25 quarterly facility assessment shows R1 to have severe cognitive impairment. The same assessment showed impaired functional abilities to both lower extremities and requires a wheelchair for mobility. She was dependent on 2 or more staff for transfers to and from the chair/bed. The assessment defines dependent as the helper does all of the effort. The resident does none of the effort to complete the activity.R1's progress notes of 8/22/25 at 1:29 PM, documents the nurse was notified of the resident's right ankle being swollen and bruised. The notes show hospice was notified on 8/21/25 and was prescribed an antibiotic for cellulitis due to ankle being warm to touch and red. Upon assessing resident ankle, it had localized swelling and bruising to the right foot/ankle. Hospice notified again and stated they would order an x-ray.The 8/24/25 x-ray report documents a fracture involving the lateral and medial malleoli with mild displacement. The joint alignment is maintained. There is associated soft tissue swelling. The conclusion of the report shows acute ankle fractures.On 9/19/25 at 12:45 PM, V5 Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) said R1 requires a mechanical lift, she cannot stand. She said there is always 2 staff when using the lift, one is needed to help guide the resident, or just in case anything goes wrong. And the other person operates the lift. V5 said R1 cannot get up on her own. Sometimes she will get a little anxious and move around in her bed, but that is all.On 9/19/25 at 9:17 AM, R1 was sitting up in a geriatric chair. Her right foot was wrapped with an elastic bandage and a support boot. Her eyes were closed and had no sign of discomfort.On 9/19/25 at 1:40 PM, V1 Administrator in training stated it was reported to her R1 had an acute ankle fracture of unknown origin. She stated there had been no fall or incident reported related to R1 to explain the fracture. V1 stated during her investigation she discovered V6 CNA was working on 8/20/25 on R1's hallway and already had been suspended due to an inappropriate transfer using the stand lift. She said while V6 was on suspension, this incident arose, and she called V6 to question her about R1 and her transfers. V1 said R1 should be transferred with 2 staff using the mechanical lift, and V6 reported she transferred R1 by standing her up by herself and attempted to pivot her into bed. V1 said that is when she concluded V6 had caused the fracture to R1s ankle. V1 said V6 reported to her she did not ask anyone for assistance; she took it upon herself to transfer the resident independently. She should have used the mechanical lift and asked for help. V1 said she interviewed the staff on duty with V6 and none assisted her with any transfers, and she had not asked for help. V1 said V6 was immediately terminated.The facility's undated policy for safe resident handling/transfers documents it is the policy of this facility to ensure that (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

She began searching the medication cart, and the treatment cart and said there was none in stock. She said she applied the antifungal cream instead. She could not recall when she had used the triamcinolone. V9 said it should be in the medication cart and applied every day to his right leg for cellulitis. V9 looked in the pharmacy orders and said the last time the cream was ordered was May 2025. She said the triamcinolone cream was being used to prevent infection and the derma fungal cream she was using was not the same thing. On 9/19/25 at 11:10 AM, V9 presented a tube of cream labeled Derma Fungal, Miconazole Nitrate 2%, and was used to treat athletes' foot, jock itch and ring worm. On 9/19/25 at 11:23 AM, V3 Director of Nursing (DON) said the triamcinolone cream comes from the pharmacy and is a steroid cream. The nurses should be re-ordering though the computer. She said the anti-fungal cream would not be effective for R2's wound care. The nurses should not have been documenting the cream as applied if it was not available. The antifungal cream is not an appropriate substitution for triamcinolone cream. They should have contacted pharmacy and if they could not get it, they should have let us know. and not just use something random.The order summary for R2s triamcinolone cream shows the last re-order date was 6/17/25.The facility's undated policy for medication administration policy documents: medications are administered by licensed nurses, or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state, as ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice. 10.
