Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident was safely turned and positioned during
incontinence care for 1 of 4 residents (R1) reviewed for safety and supervision in the sample of 4.The
findings include: R1‘s admission Record, dated 11/19/25, shows R1's diagnoses include, but are not limited
to type 2 diabetes, morbid obesity, presence of a cardiac pacemaker, hypertension, polyneuropathy,
restless and agitation, and a history of falling.R1's Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE], shows R1 has
impairment to her functional range of motion on one side to her lower extremity (hip, knee, ankle, foot), has
moderate cognitive impairment and is dependent (meaning the helper does all of the effort. Resident does
none of the effort to complete the activity. Or, the assistance of two or more helpers is required for the
resident to complete the activity.) on staff to provide toileting hygiene and to roll left and right (the ability to
roll from lying on back to left and right side and return to lying on back on the bed.).R1's current care plan
provided by the facility shows R1 has ADL (activities of daily living) self-care performance deficits and
limitations in physical mobility and has a history of being resistant to care such as refusing to be changed,
uncooperative and resistant to treatments due to agitation. R1's care plan shows she is at high risk for falls
due to her debility/need for assistance with ADLs and acute illness.R1's Progress Notes written on
11/17/25 at 1:45 AM by V6, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), shows the CNA, V7, called V6 to R1's room
where R1 was lying on her left side on the floor on the right side of the bed. V6 said she was told by V7 the
following, while changing this resident, I positioned her on her right side, and told her not to turn any further,
I proceeded to clean her when I noticed she started sliding down the right side of the bed, so I grabbed the
draw sheet in an attempt to prevent her from falling but I was unable and instead assisted in guiding her
down to the floor, she landed on her left side without hitting her head.The facility's State Report regarding
R1, dated 11/19/25, shows R1 had a witnessed fall on 11/17/25. It shows R1 has a history of falling and
non-compliance with medication and refusing treatment and care.R1's After Visit Summary from the
hospital, dated 11/17/25, shows R1's height is five feet five inches, and her weight is 283 pounds 4.7
ounces. R1 had a CT scan of her cervical spine, abdomen, pelvis and head and x-rays of her left knee and
was diagnosed with a fall.On 11/19/25 at 9:57 AM, R1 said on Monday night (11/17/25) around 1:30 AM, a
female CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) whose name she cannot remember was changing her. R1 said
the CNA, later identified as V7, was rolling her onto her right side and all the sudden said, Don't move, or
you're gonna (sic) fall off the bed and no sooner than she said it, she had already fallen out of bed onto her
knees. R1 said she didn't actually fall, she was pushed. R1 said V7 called for help and a nurse came. R1
said she was taken to the hospital, and she returned the same night with a bruised knee. R1 showed her
left knee which had a light green half dollar coin sized bruise. R1 said there were no fractures or other
injuries.On 11/19/25 at 12:06 PM, V5, CNA, said R1 is a two assist for turning in bed; she is heavy.On

11/19/25 at 12:14 PM, V2, Director of Nursing (DON), said that during care, the CNA (V7) had R1 turned to
her side and R1 kept shifting herself. The CNA asked R1 to stay still so she could clean her, but the
resident shifted again and started to slowly slide down the bed. The CNA grabbed the sheet to keep the
resident from falling, but couldn't stop the fall, so the CNA lowered R1 slowly to the floor. V2 said the ADON
(V3 -Assistant Director of Nursing) spoke to R1 and they updated her care plan and added education on
body position and alignment in bed.On 11/19/25 at 12:23 PM, V7 said she was changing R1 and had R1
turned to her right side, and she was behind her on the left side of the bed. V7 said R1 was scooting toward
the edge of the bed, and she told R1 to stop scooting because she was going to fall, but R1 scooted a little
and she could see R1's legs going over the edge of the bed. She reached for R1 to keep her from falling,
but couldn't get her stopped in time, so she grabbed her by the waist and eased her down towards the floor
and R1 ended up on the floor. V7 said R1 can help turn her upper body but needs help crossing her (left)
leg over to turn her lower body. V7 said if there were two people in the room, it would have prevented the
fall. V7 said after R1 fell, she now uses two people to turn R1. On 11/19/25 at 2:38 PM, V6 said V7 yelled
for help from R1's room. When she entered R1's room, she noted R1 on the floor. V6 said V7 told her she
was changing R1 and told R1 to roll over to her side, then her legs went too far over the side and R1
started to slide down, so V7 grabbed the sheet to stop the fall, but wasn't able to, so she guided R1 and the
sheet to the floor.
