Residents Affected - Few
Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to notify a resident's Power of Attorney
regarding a reported fall, new onset of right ankle swelling, and an Xray order. This applies to 1 of 3
residents (R1) reviewed for nursing care in the sample of 4.
The findings include:
On 10/15/24 at 11:20 AM, R1 was sitting at a dining table waiting for the noon meal. R1 was pleasant and
oriented to person and place. R1's right ankle was swollen when compared to the left ankle.
R1's 8/22/24 Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) showed she had severe cognitive impairment with a Brief
Interview for Mental Status score of 7 out of 15. The MDS showed she required supervision for ambulating
150 feet.
On 10/15/24 at 11:20 AM, R1 stated her ankle was swollen as a result of a fall. R1 stated the fall happened
a few months prior.
On 10/15/24 at 3:00 PM, V5 stated she was notified, on 10/9/24, that R1 had a swollen right ankle. V5
stated she noted R1 did have a swollen ankle and she asked R1 the cause of the swelling to which R1
replied she had fallen the day prior (10/8/24). V5 stated she notified R1's nurse practitioner and the Director
of Nursing of R1's swelling and the reported fall. V5 stated she directed the day nurse to notify the family. V5
stated the nurse did not notify the family. V5 stated the Nurse Practitioner also ordered and X-ray of the
ankle and the family was not notified of this test either. V5 stated the importance of notifying the power of
attorney (POA) is so they can be informed of the resident's condition and therefore, make better decisions
for the resident. V5 stated any notifications should be documented and there is not documentation of the
family being notified.
On 10/15/24 at 10:15 AM, V8 R1's Power of Attorney stated she was not notified by the facility of R1 falling,
R1 having a new onset swollen ankle, or an X-ray being done of R1's ankle. V8 stated she was aware of the
X-ray because she received the invoice. V8 stated she was frustrated with the lack of communication by the
facility, and she is routinely notified of the care R1 receives by the bills she receives in the mail. V8 stated
she would expect to be notified of R1 falling, having a change in condition, or receiving an X-ray. V8 stated
she should be notified so she can make better decisions regarding R1's care. V8 stated, during this
interview, she had received two phone calls from the facility. V8 stated she would call the facility to
determine the purpose of the phone calls.
On 10/15/24 at 10:29 AM, V8 stated she called the facility, and they notified her of R1's fall. (6 days after the
facility was notified.)
