On 09/20/2023 at 1:00 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated that R1 fell in the bathroom on 07/17 and had multiple rib fractures but we only found out about the fractures later. On 09/20/2023 at 10:12 AM, V7 (Restorative Nurse/Minimum Data Set Coordinator), stated that the nurses are the ones doing the baseline care plan. Me as a care plan coordinator should make sure all of the care plan is updated initially, quarterly and after significant change of condition. V7 stated R1 fell on [DATE]. We sent her out to the hospital on the same day and she returned to us on 07/19/2023. V7 stated R1 fell by going to the bathroom by herself. She will go to the bathroom, hold onto the railing, stand, and pivot herself. But R1 needs extensive assist. R1 is refusing care. We tried to advise her that she needs assistance, but she refuses. At the time she feels she was sick. She went to bathroom, and she fell. The policy is when a resident falls, we must do a risk assessment and update care plan. We found that R1 has fracture of the ribs and femur. R1 also had an infection at that time. She had an upper respiratory infection, I think pneumonia. Fall risk assessment done upon admission, quarterly and any time there is a fall. V7 stated the only fall risk assessments done on the resident was upon admission on [DATE] and then post hospitalization 07/19/2023. There was no fall risk assessment done quarterly for R1.

R1's fall care plan (02/10/2023) documents in part: R4 is a high fall risk for falls due to decrease functional mobility and poor safety awareness related to diagnoses.
