and I walked into the room R4 looked at her roommate (R3), who was lying in bed, and said, 'Is that my
grandmother?' I said, 'No that is not your grandmother'. R4 suddenly walked over to R3's bed, put her
hands around R3's neck and began choking her. I immediately leaned across R3's body while at the same
time taking R4's hands off R3's neck. When I got R4's hands released I took R4 out to the nurse working

staff conducted a head-to-toe assessment with no injury noted. Investigation initiated. Neither resident able
to make a statement regarding incident. On 10/30/2025 at 11:00AM, V21, Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN,
stated, The incident on 10/18/2025 was between (R4) and (R7). We were in the dining room and (R4) had
gotten up to leave. As (R4) was exiting the dining room she looked at (R7), who was sitting in her
wheelchair. (R4) walked over and tap, tap, tapped (R7) on the head. (R7) turned around and grabbed (R4's)
hands. They had their hands locked. I ran over and unlocked their hands and separated them. I called (V1,
Administrator) and had (R4) sent out to the hospital. She came back a couple hours later and was put on
1:1 observation. When I work back there, I try to keep the medication cart in the center of the hallway so I
can keep an eye on both ends of the hallway.Facility's initial investigation, dated 10/21/2025, documents on
10/21/2025 at approximately 1:30AM, it was reported to the administrator that R4 acted in an inappropriate
manner to R7. R4 and R7 were immediately separated. R4 placed on 1:1 for monitoring until R4 sent to

On 10/30/2025 at 10:00AM, V19, CNA, stated, I was working on 10/21/2025 when (R4) had an altercation
with (R7). I heard screaming in one of the rooms and ran into the room. (R4) had her hands on (R7's) chest
pressing down on her chest. I immediately ran over to (R7) and laid my body over (R7) while removing
(R4's) hands from (R7). I led (R4) out of the room and told the nurse what happened. (R7) said, 'I'm scared,
I 'm scared.' I told her she was safe, and I would stand outside her door. I think (R4) was sent out and then
was put on 1:1 observation again.3.R9‘s face sheet documents an admission date of 6/27/2025. Diagnoses
include Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Dementia, Type 2 Diabetes, and Epilepsy. R9's MDS,

any changes in resident condition/behaviors to physician following incident. R9 resides on a closely
supervised unit. Trauma assessment completed.Facility's initial investigation, dated 10/28/2025, documents
on 10/28/2025 at approximately 4:30AM, it was reported to the administrator R4 acted in an inappropriate

CNA, stated, I am here until 6:00PM. (R4) has been awake and ate her breakfast. On 10/30/2025 at
1:45PM, V1, Administrator, stated, I don't know what to do with (R4). Until we get her Power of Attorney
(POA) situation straightened out we are at a standstill. Her husband is her POA, and he is divorcing her. He
even blocked our calls. We are trying to get (R4's) POA changed to her daughter. The only answer until we
can find (R4) new placement is to be on continuous one on one observations. I would expect progressive
interventions to be updated and in the care plan. I expect the interventions to keep (R4) and the other
residents safe. On 10/31/2025 at 11:15AM, V17, Nurse Practitioner, NP, stated, When I see (R4), she is
usually pleasant or sleeping. I think some of her behaviors happen at night. I know (R4) has had a couple of
urinary tract infections she was treated for. I think one on one observations help but I am

concern for an acute fracture following the recent trauma. ED course: this patient sustained a traumatic
injury resulting in pain, swelling and bruising localized to the distal third of the right (should be left) leg. This
injury requires evaluation by orthopedics and may involve multiple management options depending on the
final diagnosis and recommendations. The presence of swelling and bruising, along with the need for a
specialist consultation, increases the complexity of the problem addressed beyond a simple, uncomplicated
injury.R5's Health Status Note, dated 10/22/2025 at 7:38 AM, documents, Resident was sent to hospital to
be eval. Resident has an appointment with ortho (orthopedics). Resident is a (mechanical lift) for all
transfers at this time.On 10/29/2025 at 10:45 AM, V7, CNA (Certified Nurse Aide), and V8, CNA, entered
R5's room to transfer her from recliner to bed. V7 and V8 used a mechanical lift to transfer R5 at that time.
On 10/29/2025 at 11:50 AM, R5 sat in her recliner in her room. R5 was alert and stated when she injured
her left foot, it was a freak accident because 1 staff member, V11 who is a CNA, transferred her from bed to
wheelchair and her left foot got stuck behind the wheelchair wheel and started hurting immediately. R5
stated she doesn't want to get anyone in trouble, but V11 told her (R5) she knows she's supposed to be a 2
person transfer, but they were short staffed that morning and she had to get her up. R5 recalled she fell in
the middle of the transfer back onto her bed and that was when her left foot got stuck in the wheelchair
wheel. R5 stated V11 then got her to her wheelchair and left her in her room. R5 stated it wasn't until
therapy staff (name unknown) came to get her for therapy that staff assessed her left ankle and stated it
was bruised and swollen and she was transferred to the hospital shortly after. R5 stated she had a few
fractures in her left leg in the past, and she hoped she didn't fracture it again. R5 stated she has to wear a
boot for a while to keep her left foot/ankle from moving. R5 stated she wished V11 would have tried to find
additional staff to transfer her because she isn't stable enough to be transferred by 1 staff, and that's why
she fell and hurt her ankle. R5 had a boot on her left foot from her toes to her knee. On 10/29/2025 at 11:20
AM, V7, CNA, stated she wasn't working 10/21/2025, but she is usually assigned to 200 hall on day shift
and she knows the residents well. V7 stated R5 was a 2 person assist with transfers until she recently had
an incident and now, she is now a mechanical lift. V7 stated she always transferred R5 with a 2 person
assist with a gait belt because she has Parkinson's is unstable at times, that's why she is a 2 person assist
with transfers. V7 stated staff including CNAs find how residents transfer by reading the resident's care plan
which they have access to. V7 stated she never transferred V5 without 2 staff and a gait belt, and she
wouldn't ever do that because R5 is too unstable to transfer and she definitely doesn't want any residents,
including R5, to be injured. On 10/29/2025 at 1:28 PM, V18, RN, stated she worked day shift on 10/21/2025
and was assigned to R5. V18 stated she is an agency nurse and recalled a therapy staff (name unknown)
reported to her sometime that morning that R5's left ankle/lower leg was swollen, red, and bruised and she
wanted a nurse to assess the area prior to R5 receiving therapy. V18 stated she went to R5's room and
observed V17, NP, was in the room and assessed R5's left ankle/lower leg was bruised, red, and swollen,
and she heard R5 tell V17 that she was transferred with 1 staff and it was supposed to be 2 and her left foot
got caught in her wheelchair wheel and she knew it was hurt. V18 stated R5 cried when V17 let her know
she was transferring her to the emergency room for x rays because she was recently at the hospital for
unrelated medical issue. On 10/29/2025 at 2:05 PM, V21, Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN stated she worked
day shift on 10/21/2025 but wasn't assigned to R5. V21 stated no staff reported to her that any resident
including R5 fell that morning or that staff couldn't find R5's nurse to report that R5 fell. V21 stated she
didn't know where to locate how residents transfer other than the nurse report sheet. On 10/30/2025 at
11:05 AM, V21, LPN, stated she spoke to V1,

her recliner but when R5 went to pivot, she got shaky and her left foot got stuck in the wheelchair wheel,
and R5 fell forward onto her stomach onto the bed. V11 stated she panicked and immediately turned R5's
call light on, but 5 minutes went by and no staff responded, so she called the facility and spoke to V6,
Business Office Manager, and told her she needs assistance from staff in R5's room, and V6 told her she'd
sent staff to the room. V11 stated V4, Wound Nurse, entered R5's room approximately 10 minutes later and
she assisted her to get R5 up and transferred R5 to her recliner. V11 stated she asked R5 many times if
she was OK, and R5 stated she was OK. V11 left R5's room at approximately 6:50 AM and she was up in
her recliner and was OK. V11 stated she looked for R5's nurse to report the resident fell and she couldn't
find her nurse anywhere at the facility, and so she started getting other residents up and started passing
breakfast trays. It was around 8:00 AM when she noticed V18, RN, V17, NP, and an unknown therapy staff
were in R5's room. After they left R5's room, she entered her room and asked what was going on, and R5
told her that they think her left ankle is broken and she has to go the emergency room. V11 stated V2, DON
(Director of Nurses), and V3, ADON (Assistant Director of Nurses), spoke to her the same day at 11:00 AM.
She was told she was suspended pending the investigation of R5's improper transfer and she was
in-serviced at the facility on 10/29/2025 and she comes back to work 11/1/2025. V11's Employee Personnel
File documents an employee corrective action form, dated 10/29/2025, documents date of offense
10/21/2025 employee failure to follow departmental policies and procedures. Proper transfer procedures
were not followed according to resident Kardex and/or plan of care. On 10/30/2025 a 12:07 PM, V3, ADON,
stated she was working when R5 had a change in condition and was transferred to the emergency room.
V3 stated she recalled the incident and was alerted by V17, NP, to go assess R5's left ankle/lower leg, and
when she did she noted R5's left lower leg was swollen and bruised and she asked R5 how this occurred.
R5 told her foot got caught in her wheelchair wheel during a transfer and she fell back onto the bed. V3
stated when a resident falls, she expects the CNA to notify the resident's nurse immediately, and if they
can't find the resident's nurse to notify any nurse of a fall, and a nurse should assess the resident
immediately for injury and pain and then should document the assessment and notify the resident's
provider about what occurred. V3 stated when a resident initially falls, she expects staff to document a
change in condition form (SBAR) which should document an immediate intervention which can include
resident transferred to emergency room. After the resident is readmitted to the facility, the interdisciplinary
(IDT) team will put a permanent intervention in place to prevent future falls on the resident's care plan. V3
would expect the permanent intervention to be documented on the resident's care plan within 24 hours of
being readmitted to the facility. R5's permanent intervention was to have her be a mechanical lift, and V3
stated R5's care plan has been updated. V3 stated staff were verbally in-serviced on 10/21/2025, she ran
around and verbally educated all staff working that they were to ensure residents were transferred properly
to prevent injuries because R5 was improperly transferred and she sustained a left ankle/left leg bruising
and swelling. V3 stated she put the in-service paperwork at the employee clock in for staff to read and

R5's Care Plan as of 10/31/2025 documents at risk for falls and intervention: utilize 2 assist for transfers
dated 9/28/2025. No update to R5's care plan to show she is now to be transferred by (mechanical lift) as of
10/21/2025.On 10/31/2025 at 2:47 PM, V28, Care Plan Nurse, and V5, Regional Nurse Consultant, stated
R5's care plan documents R5 is a mechanical lift under the ADL (Activities of Daily Living) category and is
a 2 person assist under the fall category, V5 stated R5's transfer status should be the same in both places
so it doesn't confuse staff. V28 stated she wasn't aware R5's fall care plan documented 2 person assist and
she will update it immediately to reflect that R5 is now a mechanical lift. On 10/29/2025 at 11:50 AM, V17,
Nurse Practitioner, stated she was at the facility on the morning of 10/21/2025, and therapy staff (unknown
name) reported to her R5 had new bruising, redness, and swelling to her left ankle/lower leg. V17 stated
she went and assessed R5 immediately and R5 told her she was transferred with 1 staff and her foot got
caught in the wheelchair wheel and she fell forward onto the bed. V17 stated no nursing staff reported this
injury to her, therapy was the first to report this injury to her. V17 stated R5 was crying at that time and
stated she didn't want to go back to the hospital because she was recently there for pneumonia and she
didn't want to go back. V17 stated she spoke to R5 and let her know due to the extent of the injury she
needed to be assessed at the local emergency room for imaging to see the extent of the injury to ensure
she received proper care and treatment. V17 stated she's not sure if the fracture is new or not because R5
was assessed by a foot and ankle specialist, and he documented the fractures on the x rays were past
chronic fractures, not acute, but V17 did confirm that R5's left foot/leg was bruised, red and swollen upon
assessment after she was transferred by 1 staff on the morning of 10/21/2025. V17 expects staff to follow
the resident's care plan because that recommendation is the safest mode of transfer for the resident per
therapy. If staff questioned how a resident is transferred, they can check the resident's care plan, and she
expected the care plan to be up to date at all times, so staff know what the therapy recommendation is and
residents are transferred properly to ensure no injuries are sustained during transfers. 2. R10's Undated
