Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive fall
prevention plan of care for 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for fall care planning in the sample.
Findings include:
R1 is a [AGE] year old with severe cognitive impairment and diagnosis of dementia, major depressive
disorder, atrial fibrillation and hypertension.
Care Plan dated 8/9/2022 shows in part, (R1) is at risk for falls related to: Current medication use
antidepressants and antipsychotics, Disease process (Polyosteoarthritis, UTI, A-Fib., HTN, Depressive
disorder, Dementia). R1 utilizes a wheelchair as primary means for locomotion. R1 will be free of falls
through next review date. Ensure R1 is sitting in the center of her wheelchair, offer and assist to take naps
in her bedroom in between meals. Keep call light within reach when in bedroom or bathroom. Side rails to
aid in bed mobility and transfers. Use of assistive device during ambulation to prevent falls.
There were no interventions for assistive/preventative devices such as chair alarms and/or wedge cushions
or other devices while in wheelchair to prevent further accidental falls.
A fall risk assessment dated [DATE] showed R1 at high risk for falls.
On 8/11/23 at 10:22 AM, R1 was observed in the dining area slumped over and asleep in a wheelchair. R1
displayed facial injuries of a swollen lip with dried blood on the right side of her mouth and a right eye that
appeared to be swollen shut. R1 was slumped over to the same side she had recently fallen on and there
were no preventative devices observed such as a chair alarm nor wedge cushion to prevent R1 from further
falls.
V5 (Memory Care Manager) stated, This is her usual place in the dining room and it was where she was
seated when she fell over last week. Surveyor asked what the facility did to prevent the fall from happening
to begin with, V5 stated, There is usually somebody here to watch the residents but I was told that she just
ended up on the floor. Surveyor asked again if there was anything else the facility did to prevent R1 from
falling, V5 stated, You would have to ask the nurses about that. Surveyor asked what her role was on the
unit, V5 stated, I am the memory care manager for this dementia unit.
V11 (CNA/Certified Nursing Aide) who was standing nearby was asked about R1 stated, R1 fell during

the morning shift but I was not here that time. I am assigned to watch this room (dining room) today and you
can see there are a lot of residents here so we can't get to all of them if they fall. Surveyor counted the
number of residents in the room which showed 41 residents with only V11 monitoring the room. Surveyor
asked V11 who the residents were that were at risk for falls currently in the dining room, V11 stated, I don't
know, I think they all are.
Residents Affected - Few
On 8/11/23 at 1:31 PM, V4 (LPN) stated, I am a new nurse here about 1 month. I remember when (R1) fell
because that was my first time working that floor and on that day I remembered I was passing medications
and (R1) was in the dining room waiting for breakfast and there was a CNA watching the residents. I didn't
hear anything and the CNA just came running out and said (R1) fell and she was lying on her right side and
she was bleeding on the floor. I called the DON (V2) and we do check up and everything and she helped
me with my assessment. We ordered X-rays for a possible fracture and I immediately sent her 911 to
hospital for further evaluation. Surveyor asked who the CNA was that was assigned to watch the dining
room, V4 stated, She was agency CNA that day and was supposed to be there and she said she just heard
a noise, but the resident was already on the floor Surveyor asked what preventative measures were in
place to prevent R1 from falling, V4 stated, I am not sure. I am new but I know the CNA should be watching
the room. Surveyor asked if she was provided any fall prevention training during her orientation, V4 stated,
Not really. Surveyor asked V4 how she knew R1 did not lose consciousness since she did not witness the
fall, V4 stated, I don't know. Surveyor asked if she asked R1 if she knew she lost consciousness, V4 stated,
No she is too confused.
On 8/12/23 at 3:09 PM, V8 (Agency CNA) stated, I'm with agency and I had just got there that day and they
(facility) assigned me to be in charge of watching the dining room. I didn't see (R1) fall and I didn't even
know her but I was with another patient when she fell. I think everyone else was passing trays or feeding
residents when the patient fell. I just heard this loud noise. There was some other resident by her before
she fell, but like I said I don't know the residents at all since it was my first time there. All I heard was just
the noise of her falling hard . Surveyor asked if she ever worked another shift at the facility, V8 stated, No I
haven't been back since that last time and I only was there once. Surveyor asked if she was told anything
about fall interventions or fall risk of residents, V8 stated, No, I didn't know anything about her fall risk. Is
she one because they didn't tell me anything? All they do like every place is give you the residents and they
don't tell you anything. Surveyor asked if she received any kind of dementia or fall prevention training, V8
stated, I'm with agency, they don't do training.
On 8/11/23 at 11:15 AM, V15 (Clinical Manager) stated, I am usually on the dementia floor but I am on call
for the whole building. Surveyor asked what her role was in preventing falls in the building as the clinical
manager, V15 stated, The only thing I did was check the wheelchair for malfunctioning. I helped the nurse
with the assessments but V4 was the nurse on duty so she did most of the paperwork. Surveyor asked if
she was part of the IDT (interdisciplinary team) and if they discussed fall prevention, V15 stated, I am part
of the IDT and we discussed R1's incident that happened and she needed the x-rays and went to the
hospital, but that is all I do. The restorative nurse manager (V7) does the root cause analysis regarding R1's
fall but she's been on maternity leave. I don't do that. We do not do anything else. We don't discuss fall
prevention in the meetings and the restorative nurse and her team are responsible for the fall prevention. I
also do psychotropic review, I do medication review, but I do not have any input in the falls whatsoever.
Surveyor asked if she saw R1's injuries or assessed R1 after she fell, V15 stated, No I did not, I was not
present during the incident. Surveyor clarified what her role was for the building, V15 stated, I am an RN
BSN and the clinical manager for the facility.

residents are assessed for risk for falls and interventions are put in place to prevent them from falling. A fall

change and annually. Those identified as high risk for falls will be provided interventions to prevent falls. An
