Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to supervise one resident who was identified as a high fall risk
as well as dependent on staff for bed mobility and toileting, by leaving the resident on their side unattended
on an elevated bed (approximately 3 feet). This affected one of three (R1) residents reviewed for falls. This
failure resulted in R1 having an unwitnessed fall, being transferred to the hospital, and sustaining a pelvis
fracture.
Findings include:
R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, depressive disorder,
bilateral osteoarthritis of knees, restless leg syndrome, and fibromyalgia. R1's Brief Interview for Mental
Status score dated 11/20/24 documents a score of 14/15 which indicates cognitively intact.
R1's restorative program observation dated 11/20/24: toileting hygiene documents dependent on staff.
Dependent helper does all 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. Mobility roll left and
right documents: dependent on staff. Dependent helper does all 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.
R1's fall risk observation dated 11/20/24 documents: high risk for falls.
Facility reportable dated 12/27/24 documents: On 12/25/24 R1 had witnessed fall while staff was providing
care. Staff was providing incontinence care when resident rolled out of bed. R1 reported pain on 12/27/24,
MD notified and orders to send to hospital. Xray positive for pelvic fracture. Under occurrence resolution:
Staff was in-service on bed mobility and incontinence care. Staff will provide care to R1 with two staff
members.
On 1/9/25 at 3:47pm V3 (Certified Nursing Assistant, CNA) said around 7:00pm V3 provided incontinence
care to R1. V3 said she raised the bed to waist level (V3 self-reported she was 5 feet 9 inches) and when
she turned R1 to her side she observed the linen was wet. V3 said she left R1 on her left side and went to
get linen from the dresser. V3 said when she was at the dresser her back was to the resident and then she
heard R1 fall from the bed.
R1's hospital record dated 12/27/24 documents: pelvis xray acute fracture noted in the left pubic bone,
extending to the left superior pubic ramus.
Facility accident management meeting form documents under root cause: Certified Nursing Aide, CNA was
providing care in patient's bed. CNA rolled patient on her side and stepped away from the patient and she
rolled onto the floor. New interventions: When providing care in bed CNA should always roll patient towards
them and not away from them. CNA should position resident in the middle of bed before rolling patient to
their side. Witness statement for V3 (CNA) documents: V3 went to provide care to R1. V3 raised the bed to
waist level and turned R1 to the window. I stepped away to the dresser to grab a sheet because when V3
turned R1 she saw the bed was wet too. V3 said when she turned back around, she saw that R1 had fell.
