On 8/19/23 at 2:43pm, V3 (Administrator) said the investigation directed her and V6 (Director of
Nursing/DON) to V5 (Certified Nursing Aide/CNA). V3 said V5 was asked to write a statement. V3 said V5
statement was reviewed, and there was not a lot of details, so V5 was asked to come into the facility for an
interview. V3 (Administrator) said herself and V6 (DON) interviewed V5 on 8/10/23. V3 said during that
interview V5 (CNA) said he got R1 up in the chair, V5 said he transferred R1 using the sit to stand
mechanical lift. V3 said V5 said there was no falls, no incidents. V3 (Administrator) said V5 (CNA) stopped
responding to the email communications and V5 stopped coming to work. V3 said V5 cannot be reached at
the phone number they have on file. V3 said V5 (CNA) was terminated due to no call, no show to work. V5
said she is not aware of R1 having a fall. On 8/20/23, V5 said she did not review facility video surveillance.
V5 said she does not know what happened to R1's hip.
On 8/21/23 at 8:32am, V6 (DON) said she conducted the investigation for R1. V6 said she did not review
video surveillance for her investigation for R1. V6 said she went back 3 days from the date R1 was
observed with pain during her investigation. V6 said V5 (CNA) was the staff that worked with R1 prior to R1
being observed with pain and swelling on 8/6/23 in the hip. V6 said all the staff within those 3 days were
asked to write a statement. V6 said when reviewing V5 written statement, there was not a lot of details. V6
said V5 was asked to come into the facility for an interview. V6 said V5 told her that he transferred R1 to the
wheelchair using a gait belt on the morning of 8/6/23. V6 said V5 had R1 to sit at the bedside before
transferring R1. V6 said V5 did not say he used the sit to stand to transfer R1. V6 said she only asked about
transferring of R1, she did not inquire about bed mobility and dressing R1 that morning. V6 said V5 said he
was getting R1 up for the day. V6 said V5 (CNA) statement consistently changed during the interview. V6
said R1 is on the get-up list, that's why V5 was getting her up that morning. V6 said if R1 had a fall outside
of her room staff would have heard it or saw it. V6 said R1 cannot get up by herself after a fall, R1 needs
assist to get up. V6 said there's no cameras in R1's room. V6 said she do not know what happened to R1
hip. V6 said she reviewed the hospital records and R1 has a bad fracture. V6 said R1 require 2 persons
assist with the use of the sit-to-stand mechanical lift. V6 (DON) said V5 should use the sit-to-stand when
transferring R1. V6 said it's for safety reason, to prevent injuries, especially in the elderly population. V6 said
her root cause analysis was based on that no staff witness R1 falling.
On 8/19/23 at 1:35pm, V1 (CNA- Certified Nursing Aide) said when she came on duty on 8/6/23 (morning)
she saw R1 up in the wheelchair at the nurse station. V1 said she thought that was strange because R1 is
not on the get-up list. V1 said multiple staff was shocked to see R1 up so early. V1 said R1 was escorted to
the dining room to have breakfast. After breakfast, R1 had activities. After activities, it was soon time for
lunch. V1 said after lunch, she went to toilet R1. V1 said she took R1 to the restroom, she went and got the
sit to stand lift. V1 said she asked the Aide to assist her with R1. V1 said she lifted R1 leg to remove the leg
rest, and R1 complain of pain. V1 said she went to get the nurse immediately so that the nurse can check
R1. V1 said her and the nurse took R1 back to her room, put R1 in the bed. V1 said they took R1 joggers off
and R1 had big swelling to the right hip. V1 said that was her first-time toileting R1 that day (after lunch). V1
said R1 was in pain. V1 said she checked R1 brief once or twice and R1 was dry.
On 8/19/23 at 2:49pm, V2 (Nurse) said she was summons to the shower room when R1 had pain. V2 said
she did not ask R1 what happened because R1 has dementia. V2 said she's not familiar with R1, she
doesn't know if R1 would have been able to tell her what happened. V2 said R1 was taken to her room,
