F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some when she came back from the bathroom R43 was tipped over backwards with her body in the chair and her head on the floor. V16 said in her opinion the chair should never have reclined back like that. V16 said she has never seen a beautician chair recline all the way back to the floor. V16 said she keeps that chair in the corner in the shop now because she won't use it. V16 said R43 told her she was not hurt that the fall just really scared her. V16 said the chair should only recline to maybe 45 degrees. V16 said she had spoken with maintenance about the chair before but he said the chair was fine. V16 said even after it happened, he looked at it again and said the chair was fine. V16 said the maintenance man at the time said R43 must have pulled the lever but V16 said she does not think R43 would have been able to do that because it would have been difficult to reach the lever while sitting in the chair.

The employee statement provided was a written statement by V1 Administrator (himself) and showed, Investigation concluded that resident or person accidentally pushed lever on chair, resulting in the incident that occurred with [R43].

V1 said the chair was not broken. On 4/11/24 at 1:41 PM, V1 (Administrator) entered the Beauty Salon with two surveyors. V1 said they are not using that chair anymore because he does not trust the chair and cannot put residents at risk. V1 said the maintenance guy looked at it and said it is not broken. The surveyor sat in the chair and the back of the chair slowly reclined backwards without pulling the lever. With no one in the chair the surveyor pulled the lever and the backrest of the chair reclined completely backward until the top of the backrest was against the floor.

On 4/11/24 at 12:20PM, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing) stated, If (R3) has an intervention to put a (non-slip pad) in her recliner then that is what staff should be doing for her safety. She has had several falls and has many interventions in place and if we don't follow them then we are putting her at risk for more falls.

After V8 and V9 transferred R20 to her bed, covered her up, and verbalized they were finished with cares and moving onto the next resident, surveyor questioned if R20 required an alarm while she was in bed. V9 then stated, Yes, she is supposed to have an alarm on while she is in the wheelchair and in bed because she has had falls in the past and is a high fall risk. I would have forgotten to put the alarm under her if you hadn't said anything. V9 then obtained R20's bed alarm from the spare bed in her room and placed it underneath of her. V9 stated all residents that are ordered to have alarm should have them in place to alert staff when resident is trying to get up so they can go an provide assistance to them and prevent falls from occurring.

This applies to 1 of 8 (R54) residents reviewed for infection control in the sample of 23. Residents Affected - Few The findings include: R54's admission Record showed an original admission date of 3/28/24 with diagnoses to include a MRSA (an MDRO) (onset date 4/6/24), an abscess, and diabetes. R54's 4/10/24 Infection/Viral Charting showed she was ordered two antibiotics for her MRSA infection. R54's Care Plan showed Contact precautions maintained. Date initiated: 4/6/24.

The wound had a 2 inch incision from the 7 O'clock to 1 O'clock position. The wound appeared as if it had been a large abscess that had been surgically drained. The skin surrounding the incision was dark maroon/purple in color and was the size of a large orange. The wound had undermining of the boarders and required packing. On 4/10/24 at 11:00 AM, R54's room had signage on her door showing she was in contact isolation and gown and gloves were required. V15 entered R54's room without a gown to check R54's blood sugar.
