Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to implement safety interventions and provide supervision to prevent two residents from injury. These failures resulted in R2 sustaining a laceration and a displaced bilateral nasal bone fracture and acute fracture of the bony nasal septum and R3 sustaining a head laceration requiring 5 staples and being admitted to the hospital. This applies to 2 of 6 residents (R2 and R3) reviewed for falls in a sample of 12. The findings include:1.R2's records showed that she was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses including dementia, psychosis, restlessness and agitation.

R2 was taken to the local community hospital. R2's 5/29/25 hospital records showed that R2 sustained a laceration to her forehead and acute mild displaced bilateral nasal bone fracture and acute fracture of the bony nasal septum with leftward bowing. R2's 5/29/25 progress notes showed that R2 returned to the facility with sutures (number of sutures not indicated) in place to be removed in 7 days. R2's 10/18/24 care plan showed a focus on high risk for falls/injury/trauma with interventions including provided with high/low bed with floor mattress to further meet resident's safety needs.On 6/25/25 at 2:57 pm V5 said that she was providing care for R2, and she had removed the mat from the side of R2's bed, had R2's bed in a high position and then took 1 or 2 steps away from R2's bed to get wipes and a brief off the dresser. V5 said that she had her back turned away from R2 when R2 fell off the bed and hit the floor. V5 said that she saw blood and went and got the nurse. V5 said that R2 was awake at the time and that R2 has a tendency of trying to get out of the bed and falling.On 6/25/25 at 1:58 pm V9 NP (Nurse Practitioner) said that R2's laceration and nasal fracture was caused by the staff not putting the mat back next to the bed and putting bed rails up before walking away from the resident. V9 said by V5 not having the safety measures in place it caused R2 to fall causing a laceration and fractured nose.On 6/27/25 at 4:15 pm V1 (Administrator) said that V5 should have gotten the wipes and briefs before attempting to provide incontinence care for R2. V1 said that V5 should have lowered the bed and put the mats back in place and made sure the bed rails were up before she stepped away to get the needed items. V1 said that when R2 fell out of the bed it caused a fracture to her nose and a laceration. V1 said that R2 has a history of falling and attempting to get out of the bed causing falls. V1 said that staff should have been monitoring her even closer knowing she had the behaviors of attempting to get out of bed. V1 said that if V5 had put all those interventions in place, it could have prevented R2 from falling.On 6/27/25 at 1:34 pm V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing) said that when R2 fell on (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.
