hooked R3's sling up to the mechanical lift. V13 stated I need to go get a spotter. R3 and R5 (R3's
roommate) both stated V13 got R3 and R5 both up by V13 only this morning.
At 1:20 PM, R3 was lifted into bed by V13 and V14 (Certified Nurse Aide) via mechanical lift with the Spine
brace on. V13 stated to V14 V15 (Physical Therapy) took R3's brace off this morning and I put the brace
(R3's Spine brace) back on wrong. R3 was positioned in bed in supine position without the head of the bed
elevated.
At 3:08 PM, R3 stated R3's pain level was at an eight (0- no pain and 10- worst pain). R3 stated The brace
rubbed on my back incision. I'm still waiting for the gals to come put me on my side. I've been on my back
since I got back in bed. I have indigestion so bad; I feel like there's a big heavy lump here (pointed to upper
sternum). At home I drink milk and take Pepcid, but I've asked for some milk and haven't gotten anything
yet. I called V10 (Healthcare Power of Attorney) earlier when they left me up in the chair and told V10. V10
called the front desk and told them to put me back in bed. That's why they (staff) came in (at 1:20 PM to put
R3 back in bed).
At 3:25 PM, V16 (Licensed Practical Nurse) was at the nurse's station and was informed that R3 was
requesting to be turned and to conduct a dressing check/skin assessment.
At 3:28 PM, V11 (Certified Nurse Aide Supervisor) told V16 that R3 requested something for R3's upset
belly.
At 3:35 PM, V16 walked into R3's room and proceeded to administer medication without identifying R3,
asking about R3's symptoms, level of discomfort or explaining what the medication was for.
At 3:40 PM, V16 proceeded to have R3 put R3's bent left leg over the top of the of the right leg and pushed
R3 to R3's right side (twisting motion) and R3 cried out. The dressing covering the back incision was balled
up at the top of R3's back and was not covering the incision. V16 peeled off plastic tape which was stuck to
R3's skin and rolled up. V16 then left the room to go get supplies for the dressing change and left R3 rolled
over on right side with the bed in a high position and with the incision not covered. During this time R3
stated that earlier in the day, R3 had been constipated and R3's belly was bloated. R3 stated I begged them
(staff) to get me up to the toilet instead of going in my bed. R3 stated They just tell me to go in my briefs.
Approximately 10 minutes later (3:50 PM) V16 enters R3's room and performed the dressing change.
On 5/7/24 at 8:48 AM, V10 stated Some girls came in about the 4th day (after admission) and yanked on
R3's leg. It really hurt R3. They are doing stuff they aren't supposed to do. This was a different surgery and
it's way more painful. R3 should wear the brace when up and when R3 does therapy. They use that hoist
(mechanical lift), and I don't think they are supposed to do that. They aren't walking R3 very much.
Yesterday around 11:00 AM or so, R3 called me crying saying R3 was left in the wheelchair with the brace
on for a half hour. They (staff) said they would be right back, but they hadn't been back. I wasn't very happy
about that. R3 doesn't tolerate pain well. I called (the facility) and complained and apparently, they put her
back in bed.
On 5/6/24 at 3:33 PM, the Medication Administration Record/MAR documented V16 administered
hydrocodone (opioid narcotic) for a pain level of 6 (0-no pain 10-worst pain). The record lacked an
assessment of R3's complaints of indigestion or upset belly. The MAR lacked documentation medication for
indigestion was administered on an as needed bases as ordered.

regarding weight bearing status and such. Today we changed R3's wheelchair to a high-backed reclining
wheelchair so that R3 doesn't have the brace pushing into R3's groin/stomach and chest. V15 stated

knees. The evaluation documented R3 required substantial/maximal assistance with bed mobility,
partial/moderate assistance with transfers and was dependent on staff with ambulation.
On 4/24/24, R3's Care plan documented has limited physical mobility related to surgical aftercare, spinal
stenosis and lacked interventions related to the Spinal Precautions and the Spine brace.
On 4/25/24 R3's Order Summary documented a Physician's Order for Spine Brace on when resident up
every shift and lacked documentation of Spinal Precautions or the application of the Spine brace.
On 5/6/24 at 12:10 PM, R3 was sitting in a wheelchair with the Spine brace on; R3's hand was over
forehead, head down and grimacing; pulling and moving brace around. R3 stated We (R3 and R5) put the
call light on twice. It hurts. It's pushing on my belly, and I feel sick to my stomach. I'm not supposed to have
this thing (brace) on when I'm in the wheelchair. It's just digging into me and hurting my back. R3's call light
was draped over bed and unreachable.
At 12:38 PM, R3 was observed sitting in a wheelchair with brace on.
On 5/6/24 at 1:04 PM, R3 was sitting in a wheelchair with brace on. R3's roommate R5 stated I put on the
call light. They had to go find a mechanical lift.

had hooked R3's sling up to the mechanical lift. V13 stated I need to go get a spotter. R3 and R5 both
stated V13 got R3 and R5 both up by V13 only this morning.
On 5/6/24 at 1:20 PM, R3 was lifted into bed by V13 and V14 (Certified Nurse Aide) via mechanical lift with
back brace on. V13 stated V15 took R3's brace off this morning and I put the brace (R3's Spine brace) back
on wrong. R3 was left laying supine, flat on the bed with call light on nightstand.

stated The brace rubbed on my back incision. I'm still waiting for the gals to come put me on my side. I've
been on my back since I got back in bed. R5 put the light on once but I still haven't had anyone come back.
I have indigestion so bad; I feel like there's a big heavy lump here (pointed to upper sternum). I called V10
(Healthcare Power of Attorney) earlier when they left me up in the chair and told V10 how much pain I was
in. V10 called the front desk and told them to put me back in bed. That's why they came in (at 1:10 PM to
put R3 back into bed).
On 3/6/24 at 3:25 PM, V16 (Licensed Practical Nurse) was asked to turn R3 and conduct a dressing
check/skin assessment.
On 5/6/24 at 3:40 PM, V16 proceeded to have R3 put a bent left leg on top of the right leg and pushed R3
to R3's right side (twisting motion). The dressing covering the back incision was balled up at the top of R3's
back and was not covering the incision. V16 peeled off plastic tape which was stuck to R3's skin and rolled
up. V16 then left the room to go get supplies for the dressing change and left R3 rolled over on right side
with the bed in a high position and with the incision open to air. During this time R3 stated that earlier in the
day, R3 had been constipated and R3's belly was bloated. R3 stated I begged them (staff) to get me up to
the toilet instead of going in my bed. R3 stated They just tell me to go in my briefs. Approximately 10
minutes later (3:50 PM) V16 enters R3's room and performed the dressing change.
On 5/7/24 at 8:48 AM, V10 stated Some girls came in about the 4th day and yanked on R3's leg. It really
hurt R3. They are doing stuff they aren't supposed to do. This was a different surgery and it's way more
painful. R3 should wear the brace when up and when R3 does therapy. They use that hoist (mechanical lift),
and I don't think they are supposed to do that. R3 called me one day and told me R3 was in the hoist for a
half hour. They aren't walking R3 very much. Yesterday around 11:00 AM or so, R3 called me crying saying
R3 was left in the wheelchair with the brace on for a half hour. They (staff) said they would be right back,
but they hadn't been back. I wasn't very happy about that. R3 doesn't tolerate pain well. I called (the facility)
and complained and apparently, they put her back in bed. R3 has called me about 3 or 4 other times and
says R3 pushes the call button but no one comes. Sometimes when I get there, we can't find the call light.
One time it was wrapped up and hung up on the wall. I have pushed the call light a couple of times, and no
one has answered but I'll go out there and complain. It gets done then.
On 5/7/24 at 12:30 PM, V15 (Physical Therapist) stated Orders come from the admission Orders and put
into (medical record) by V12 (Assisting Director of Nursing.). We (Therapy) communicate with staff
regarding weight bearing status and such. Today we changed R3's wheelchair to a high-backed reclining
wheelchair so that R3 doesn't have the brace pushing into R3's groin/stomach and chest. V15 stated
Therapist do not attend care plan meetings, R3's record lacked Physician Orders for Spinal Precautions
and the staff were not educated on Spinal Precautions and the use of the Spine brace and they should
have had. V15 stated staff should be utilizing the log roll technique (no twisting). V15 stated the Spine brace
should have been removed while in the wheelchair and prior to using the mechanical lift for transfer.
On 5/7/24 at 3:00 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated V15 has already been out to educate staff about the Spine
brace and Spinal Precautions. V1 stated V15 was concerned about the lack of staff education.
The Transfers policy, dated 8/2017, documented it was the duty of the Director of Nursing or Designee to
ensure that adequate training is provided to all nursing staff on the proper use of (mechanical lifts) lifts. The
policy stated a minimum of two staff members is recommended when transferring
