Based on Interview and Record review, the facility failed to notify a resident's physician of new onset,
unilateral extremity pain for a resident with severe cognitive impairment for one of three residents (R1)
reviewed for injury in the sample of four. This failure resulted in R1 waiting over 24 hours to receive
emergency care/ imaging for a fracture of R1's right tibia and fibula.Findings include: R1's current Care
Plan, dated 8/11/25, documents R1 has diagnoses including but not limited to Alzheimer's Disease,
Anxiety, Senile Degeneration, and Severe Dementia with Psychotic disturbance. This care plan documents
Resident has a behavior problem of increased confusion with anxiety related to: Alzheimer's or related
dementia.R1's electronic progress note, dated 8/5/2025 at 1:26 PM and signed by V4 (Licensed Practical
Nurse), documents, Late entry: 8/3/25 (R1) was observed in hallway acting per normal. Propelling herself
while whimpering she wants to go home repeatedly. While in the dining room, this nurse attempted to
administer medications and PRN (as need) ABH (Ativan, Benadryl, Haldol, anti-anxiety/ antipsychotic
medicated cream) and (R1) became extremely upset and refused medications. A later reattempt to apply
ABH cream with CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) and successful. A little while later same CNA (V15) said
she thought she knew what was wrong with (R1) and palpated right hip area in which (R1) winced and
attempted to pull away. PRN morphine (narcotic pain medication) administered with some difficulty, however
then resident rested in wheelchair at the nurse's desk for a while. Later another resident needed to use
phone at the desk so when staff went to move (R1) back in her chair (R1) grabbed (her) leg at the right
knee and brought towards her chest. No reported incidents to explain her pain as resident is primarily
nonverbal with limited communication. Continued to monitor.On 8/22/25 at 2:45 PM, V4 (Licensed Practical
Nurse) confirmed she was the nurse for R1 on 8/3/25 and stated, I took care of (R1). On Sunday morning
(8/3/25), she was tooling around and acting normal. She did not want her morning meds, sometimes she
does that though. (V15 CNA) brought (R1) to the nurse's station and said I think she is in pain and when
(V15) went to touch (R1's) right hip area, she winced from that. (R1) later grabbed her right knee and
brought it to her center, almost like a guarding motion. Those were her only signs she displayed of pain.
Neither was a normal behavior for her. I was afraid to order an X-Ray because she'd be non-compliant, she
would need held and not handle that well. All of this happened just after breakfast on 8/3/25. I know (R1)
was later taken to lunch and I don't think anything else was ever said. I didn't notify the DON (V2, Director
of Nursing) or the MD (V7, R1's Physician).On 8/22/25 at 3:05 PM, V15 (CNA) stated, On 8/3/25, I was
taking care of (R1) and I told the nurse (V4) when I touched (R1) on the right hip she acted like she was in
pain and hurting. I know she drew her knee up at one point later too when she was in front of the nurse's
station. She was displaying pain on the side. She was confused often and that day she couldn't be calmed
down with music or other interventions. I could tell (R1) was more anxious and not acting her normal self.
On 8/23/25 at 9:20 AM, V14 (Registered Nurse) confirmed she was R1's nurse on the evening of 8/3/25
until the morning

of 8/4/25. V14 stated, I was told in report the day before (8/3/25) that (R1) was having some pain. The next
morning (8/4/25) the CNA (V16) called me in the room, and we couldn't really tell what was wrong. (R1)
was grabbing towards her right knee. We decided not to get her up or move her and that when dayshift
comes in, they can order an x-ray. This was all before 6 AM, before we were going to change shifts. (R1)
kind of guarded her right knee. That morning with (V16), she had been more resistive to care. V14
confirmed she did not notify R1's Physician (V7) or (V20, R1's Guardian).R1's nursing progress notes,
dated 8/4/2025 at 11:03 AM and signed by V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse), documents R1 was refusing all
pain medications and was sent to the emergency department for evaluation and imaging. On 8/23/25 at
10:33 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated, I took report on 8/4/25 (morning) and it was stated to me
that (R1) was acting strange towards the end of the night shift. I assessed (R1) and when trying to assist
her she recoiled and seemed fearful. I thought it could be her leg bothering her, but I wasn't sure. It was
strange that (R1) wasn't allowing staff to help her. That was new behavior for her. I was not aware of anyone
notifying the (V7, R1's Physician), (V20, R1's Guardian), or (V2, Director of Nursing) prior to myself, that
morning. R1's Emergency Department notes, dated 8/4/25 at 2:34 PM and signed by V21 (emergency
room doctor), documents R1 was brought to the emergency room for right ankle swelling and later admitted
to the hospital with a right closed Tibia-Fibula fracture and Dementia.On 8/23/25 at 12:10 PM, V2 (Director
of Nursing) confirmed he was notified of the situation with R1 on the date she was sent out to the hospital
(8/4/25). V2 stated he was unaware she was having symptoms of pain the day prior (8/3/25). V2 confirmed
when R1 was sent to the emergency room it was discovered she had a lower right leg fracture of both
bones and that V7 (R1's Physician) and V20 (R1's Guardian) was not notified of the change in R1's
condition until 8/4/25. The facility's Significant Condition Change and Notification policy, dated 12/2024,
documents To ensure the resident's family and or representative and medical practitioner are notified of
resident changes such as: A significant change in the resident's physical, mental or psychological status;
Abnormal or unusual or new complaints of pain. This policy also documents When any of the situation exist,
the licensed nurse will contact the resident's representative and their medical practitioner. The medical
practitioner will be contacted immediately for any emergencies regardless of the time of day.
Non-emergency notifications may be made the next morning if the situation occurs on the late evening or
night shift. This applies to any day of the week including holidays. If the medical practitioner cannot
immediately be reached in any emergency, the medical director will be called. If the medical practitioner
cannot be reached, the director of nursing or the charge nurse can make arrangements for transportation to
the emergency department. Each attempt will be charted as to the time the call was made, who was
spoken to, and what information was given to the medical practitioner. All significant changes will be
recorded on the (facility's electronic record program) communication board in the resident record. Charting
will include an assessment of the resident's current status as it relates to the change in condition.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to assess and document a resident's pain and
administer pain medication to a resident with severe cognitive impairment, who was later diagnosed with
right lower leg fractures for one of three residents (R1) reviewed for accidents in the sample of four.
Findings include:R1's current Care Plan, dated 8/11/25, documents R1 has diagnoses including but not
limited to Alzheimer's Disease, Anxiety, Senile Degeneration, and Severe Dementia with Psychotic
disturbance. This care plan documents Resident has a behavior problem of increased confusion with
anxiety related to: Alzheimer's or related dementia.R1's Treatment Administration Record (TAR), dated
8/1/25-8/22/25, documents R1 has an order for Pain monitoring every shift, every day and night shift. Start
Date, 3/10/2025. This record does not document dayshift pain monitoring was assessed on 8/2/25 or
8/3/25. This same TAR documents on the evening of 8/3/25, R1's pain was assessed to be a 7/10, severe
pain.R1's Medication Administration Record (MAR), dated 8/1/25-8/22/25, documents R1 has an order for
Morphine Sulfate (Concentrate) Oral Solution 20 Milligrams/Milliliter (ml) (Liquid Narcotic pain medication).
Give 0.25 ml by mouth every two hours as needed for Pain or Air Hunger. Start Date, 3/06/2025. This same
MAR does not document any other medications for pain were in place on 8/3/25 and does not document
any pain medication was administered to R1 on 8/3/25.On 8/22/25 at 2:45 PM, V4 (Licensed Practical
Nurse) confirmed being R1's nurse on the dayshift of 8/3/25. V4 stated, V15 (Certified Nursing Assistant,
CNA) brought (R1) to the nurse's station (on 8/3/25) and said, I think she is in pain and when the CNA went
to touch (R1's) right hip area, she winced from that. (R1) later grabbed her right knee and brought it to her
center, almost like a guarding motion. Those were her only signs she displayed of pain. Neither was a
normal behavior for her. I maybe charted Morphine administration in the progress notes; I am not sure if it
was charted in the MAR or not. All of this happened just after breakfast on 8/3/25.On 8/23/25 at 9:20 AM,
V14 (Registered Nurse) confirmed she was R1's nurse on the evening of 8/3/25 until the morning of 8/4/25.
V14 stated, I was told in report the day before (8/3/25) that R1 was having some pain. The next morning the
CNA (V16) called me in (R1's room) and we couldn't really tell what was wrong. (R1) was grabbing towards
her knee. We decided not to get her up or move her and when dayshift comes in, they can order an x-ray
when the place opens. This was before 6 am, just before we were going to change shifts. She kind of
guarded her right knee. That morning with (V16), she had been more resistive to care. I think I was able to
squirt some Morphine in her mouth for pain. I am not sure if it was charted on the MAR. Sometimes we
chart on the MAR or chart in the narcotic sign out book.R1's Nursing Progress notes do not contain any
pain assessments, progress notes or pain medication administrations for R1 on 8/3/25. R1's Emergency
Department notes, dated 8/4/25 at 2:34 PM and signed by V21 (emergency room doctor), documents R1
was brought to the emergency room for right ankle swelling and later admitted to the hospital with a right
closed Tibia-Fibula fracture and Dementia.On 8/23/25 at 12:10 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed he
was notified of the situation with R1 on the date she was sent out to the hospital (8/4/25). V2 stated he was
unaware she was having symptoms of pain the day prior (8/3/25). V2 confirmed when R1 was sent to the

sign out sheet for R1's narcotic pain medication from 8/1/25-8/22/25 and they are not able to find it. V1
confirmed there is no way to determine if R1 was properly assessed and given pain medication on 8/3/25

psychological and physiological effects of unrelieved pain. Optimal management of the resident
experiencing pain enhances the healing and promotes both physical and psychological wellness. It is the
responsibility of all clinical staff to assess and periodically reassess the resident for pain and relief from
pain. Expressions of pain may be verbal or nonverbal and are subjective to the resident including but not
limited to: negative verbalizations and vocalizations (groaning, crying, whimpering, screaming), behavior
such as resisting care, distressed pacing, irritability, depressed mood or decreased participation in usual
physical and/or social activities. If the resident has been identified with pain, the resident will undergo
reassessment of pain at least once per shift and before and after every pain control mechanism employed
by the resident's care providers. Pain control mechanisms include but are not limited to: Medications
administered for the control or relief of pain, Medications administered for the control or relief of anxiety,
Repositioning of the resident. Management of the resident's pain is an interdisciplinary process, and it is to
be included on the resident's interdisciplinary care plan.The facility's Controlled Substance policy, dated

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based on Observation, Interview and Record Review, the facility failed to ensure that direct resident care
staffing was adequate to meet the needs of residents in the facility. This failure has the potential to affect all
83 residents residing in the facility.Findings include:The facility's Resident Roster dated 8/22/25 and
provided by V1 (Administrator), documents there are 83 residents residing in the facility.The facility's
(undated) Resident Acuity spreadsheet provided by V1 (Administrator) on 8/25/25, documents the facility
has 75 residents who require some level of staff assistance with Activities of Daily Living. Of those 75
residents, 27 of them require moderate assistance and 36 require total dependence on staff. This
spreadsheet also documents 40 residents have behavioral mental health needs, 14 of which display
aggression.R3's Grievance/ Complaint form, dated 8/4/25 and signed by V1 (Administrator), documents,
This resident came to the SSD (Social Services Director, V5) to talk about the staffing. The resident is
happy with staff but is unhappy with the cuts/ shortages. (R3) is worried about prolonged waits to be helped
and get medications.R3's current Care Plan, dated 10/11/24, documents R1 has diagnoses including but
not limited to Congestive Heart Failure, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Restless Legs Syndrome. This care
plan documents R1 has a plan of Actual / At Risk and/or Potential for complications with deficits with ADL's
(Activities of Daily Living) related to current medical/physical status. Has medications and diagnoses that
can/may affect ADL's. This same plan of care documents R3 requires limited assistance of one staff
member for transferring, toileting, locomotion, and dressing.On 8/22/25 at 2:05 PM, R3 was sitting in a
recliner chair in her room. R3 stated she does not feel like the facility has enough staff to care for the
residents. R3 stated, This morning, they had an emergency, and my morning medications did not get to me
until lunchtime. I know it is because the nurses are just busy, and they have a lot to do. The CNAs (Certified
Nursing Assistants) are busy too. I wait a long time when I do push my call light. If I need help to the use the
restroom, I may wait 30-45 minutes before someone comes in to help. They just don't have enough staff
working to get to everyone. R3 confirmed she requires a wheelchair to get around the facility and she has a
history of falling.R4's current Care Plan, dated 8/5/24, documents R4 has diagnoses including but not
limited to Heart Failure, Hemiplegia affecting right side, Epilepsy, Spastic Hemiplegia affecting left side,
Chronic Kidney Disease, Joint Stiffness, Muscle Weakness, Difficulty Walking, Chronic Pain, Lack of
Coordination and Abnormal Posture. This care plan documents R4 has a plan of (R4) is at risk for falls
related to a history of falls, spastic hemiplegia affecting left side, decrease muscle coordination, use of
assistive device, dependent on staff to stand. This care plan documents R4 requires extensive assistance
of two staff for transfers and bed mobility.On 8/22/25 at 1:30 PM, R4 was sitting in the hallway outside of his
room in a wheelchair. At this time R4 stated he has been waiting 45 minutes to get into bed and use the
urinal. R4 stated, Staff are busy, they are not just sitting around. I know it's the end of lunch time, but I can't
use the toilet because I require a (mechanical lift) to transfer so I need to get to bed and use a urinal. They
need two staff to transfer me and so I must wait too long because there isn't enough of them.On 8/22/25 at
1:40 PM, V12 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated staffing has been a challenge at times. V12 stated I am a
nurse for 32 residents today in my area. I have several residents who require (mechanical lifts), two
residents on dialysis and so they have decreased strength levels on several day of the week, I have another
resident with a gastrostomy tube. We are not staffed based on the needs of these residents. I believe we
have around 19 residents who have CHF (Congestive Heart Failure) and they need daily weights. It's a lot
for two nursing assistants to keep up with.On 8/22/25 at 3:05 PM, V15 (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated,

a resident (R1) on 15-minute watch right now. I have around 22 residents in my hall. Of those I have five to
six (mechanical lifts) and that requires two staff members for every transfer. It can be very difficult to keep
up with everything. On 8/23/25 at 10:33 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated, We did just have some
staffing cuts which makes it difficult at times to get things accomplished. Treatments and charting are things
that often can't be caught up on. Especially charting. For example, that day (8/4/25) I had two residents
transfer out to the hospital and it put me behind on everything else. It's hard to give safe resident care when
you don't have enough staff in the building. The residents will often complain of longer wait times and that
staff morale has decreased.On 8/22/25 at 3:20 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed the facility is hearing
more resident complaints on not having enough staff. V2 stated, Residents have complained to me about
the staffing cuts that were made. We also have increased our census so we are getting more residents and
more behaviors/care needs and we are scaling back on staff. It is noticeable to residents and of course staff
feel it too.The facility's Facility Assessment, dated 7/13/25, does not include numerical staffing
requirements necessary of nurses and nursing assistants for each shift, to meet the needs of the residents
based on the resident population and census. This same assessment documents, The facility's plan to
ensure sufficient staff to meet the needs of the residents at any given time is based on the (state minimum)
staffing calculator, which takes into consideration the facility census and acuity levels impacting staffing
needs.The facility's (undated) Activities of Daily Living policy, documents, This facility provides each
resident with care, treatment, and services according to the resident's individualized care plan. Based on
the individual resident's comprehensive assessment, facility staff will ensure that each resident's abilities in
activities of daily living do not diminish unless circumstances of the resident's clinical condition demonstrate
that the decline was unavoidable, including bathing, dressing, grooming, transferring, locomotion,
ambulation, toileting, eating, communication including using speech, language or other functional
communication systems specific to the needs of the individual resident.
