F 0689 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 observation, record review, and interview the facility failed to assess a resident with a history of leaning forward in her wheelchair for safe positioning while in her wheelchair and failed to apply foot pedals to the resident's wheelchair prior to transporting the resident for one of three residents (R1) reviewed for falls with injury in the sample of three. These failures resulted in R1 leaning forward in her wheelchair and abruptly dropping her feet to the floor, which caused R1 to fall face first onto the floor out of her wheelchair, sustaining a three-centimeter laceration to the right forehead that was bleeding and required closure with six sutures in the hospital emergency room. Findings include: The facility's Resident Assessment policy dated 12/2002 documents, It is the policy of the facility to provide a means of determining the physical and mental needs of each resident. Purpose: To define the physical and mental abilities and disabilities and to determine the maximum potential or function of the individual. Evaluation defines needs, problems, approaches short and long-range goals. This composes the nursing care plan. Evaluation is continuous. It begins prior to admission and continues through discharge. 1. Evaluating Persons: Everyone in the resident's environment-physician, family, resident, nurse aide, nurse, activity department, dietary, social service, physical therapy, housekeeping, etc. 2. Importance of evaluation: Good evaluation will result in a good plan of care that effectively meets the resident's needs, thus enabling him/her to attain and maintain his/her maximum functioning level. Poor evaluation will result in a plan of car that does not fully meet the resident's needs, and the attainment of his/her maximum function may not be realized. 3. Nurse Role in Evaluation: Evaluates by communication and observation. Responsible for documentation of evaluation. 4. Areas of Evaluation: A. Physical function of body symptoms. 2. Muscle weakens, complaint of pain in muscles, tightness in ROM (Range of Motion), atrophy, contractures, spasm, rigidity flaccid. 3. Skeletal deformity, arthritic joints, contracture, limited ROM, posture. 12. Activities of daily living-transfer, washing and dressing, gait, and wheelchair mobility. The facility's Accident/Incident Preventions undated policy documents,Physical therapy evaluation as needed for muscle strengthening and balance.

(V8/CNA/Certified Nursing Assistant) states (R1) was leaning forward and (V8) was bringing (R1's) shoulders back, (V8) got close to the nurse's station and (R1) fell forward and hit her head on the ground.

R1's Fall with Injury Investigation dated 12-6-23 documents, (V8) was pushing (R1) down the hall after breakfast. (R1) leaned forward and fell. (R1) wheelchair did not have footrest. Inservice staff: Wheelchair foot pedals store in the bag for easy access to staff. Foot pedals in place when transporting residents. The Facility's In-Service Education/Meeting Report dated 12-8-23 and instructed by V2 (Director of Nursing) documents direct care workers were in-serviced on ensuring every resident wheelchair needing to have foot pedals and wheelchair foot pedals needing to be in place when transporting residents. On 1-5-24 at 8:55 AM R1 was in a high back, padded, low, four-wheeled chair. R1 was leaning forward during this time and had her feet elevated on the chair's footrest. R1 had a linear pinkish-reddish three cm scab to the right side of her forehead. On 1-5-24 at 9:00 AM V3 (RN) stated, On 12-6-23 (V8/CNA) was pushing (R1) in her wheelchair from the dining room to the common area. (R1) put her foot down abruptly and fell forward out of her wheelchair onto her head. (R1) had a lot of bleeding and a laceration to the right side of her head. There was a lot of bleeding.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few On 1-5-24 at 9:08 AM V8 (CNA) stated, On 12-6-23 I was pushing (R1) in her wheelchair from the dining room to the common area across from the nurse's desk. (R1) kept swinging her feet and leaning forward numerous times while I was pushing her. I kept grabbing (R1) by the shoulders and trying to pull her backwards. Once I got to about the nurses' station, (R1) put her feet down suddenly, leaned forward, and fell face forward out of her wheelchair onto the floor. (R1) hit her right side of her head and there was lots of bleeding A lot of staff responded immediately and pressure was applied to (R1's) head until the ambulance arrived. I did not put (R1's) foot pedals on her wheelchair that morning and (R1) did not have foot pedals on her wheelchair when I was pushing her down the hallway and should have had foot pedals on her wheelchair. I could not find (R1's) foot pedals that morning. I was educated later by (V2/Director of Nursing) that (R1) should have foot pedals on her wheelchair at all times to prevent (R1) from falling out of the wheelchair. I feel really bad and know I should have put wheelchair pedals on (R1's) chair to prevent her from falling. When (R1) was leaning forward, I should have stopped pushing her and got other staff to assist me in re-positioning (R1). It was common for (R1) to lean forward in her wheelchair all the time even before the day she fell. On 1-5-24 at 10:48 AM V9 (Lead PTA/Physical Therapy Assistant) stated, I know (R1) is non-verbal. If (R1) was leaning forward in her wheelchair prior to the fall on 12-6-23, (R1's) wheelchair positioning should have been assessed by nursing or therapy to try and figure out why (R1) is leaning and to prevent (R1) from falling out of her wheelchair and sustaining an injury. (R1) leaning could have been indicative of (R1) needing to relieve pressure from her bottom, or (R1) trying to walk. No one knows because an assessment was not done. If a resident is not self-propelling a wheelchair, then the resident should have wheelchair pedals on to prevent the resident from putting their foot down while staff are pushing them in their wheelchair. The staff (V8) that was pushing (R1) on 12-6-23 should have stopped pushing (R1) in the wheelchair when she noticed (R1) was leaning forward and swinging her feet. On 1-5-24 at 11:35 AM V10 (CNA) stated, I have worked here awhile and (R1) has always leaned forward while in her wheelchair. I do not know why (R1) leans forward. After (R1's) fall, (V2) in-serviced us (staff) that residents are to have foot pedals on their wheelchairs whenever we are pushing the residents in their wheelchairs. On 1-5-24 at 11:05 AM V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, I in-serviced staff right after (R1) fell out of her wheelchair on 12-6-23. (V8) should have put foot pedals on (R1's) wheelchair when she was transporting (R1) to prevent (R1) from putting her feet down while being pushed in the chair. (R1) has never been assessed by staff or referred to therapy for wheelchair positioning to address (R1) leaning forward in her wheelchair. 146108 Page 5 of 5
