to keep her head protected, and afterwards they are supposed to check on her. V8 stated that she is not
aware of any interventions in place to prevent injuries prior to falls in general or those related to seizures.
On 04/23/25 at 1:51 PM, V5 (Registered Nurse/ RN) stated the only thing she knows about R33 that she
has seizures, and they give her medicine for them. She reports that R33, Has them on occasion. V5 stated
that it had been a long time since she witnessed a seizure. V5 said that she is not aware of any
interventions in place to prevent injury prior to falls in general or falls related to seizures.
On 4/24/25 at 9:09 AM, V2 (Director of Nurses) gave the following responses in relation to interventions
reviewed with her after each of R33's falls. V2 stated that she thought that the fall intervention for the fall on
2/14/25 was appropriate because having R33 review the smoking policy and having her sign it would help
to remind her of current policy and calm her down. V2 stated that R33 was upset at the time, and staff were
concerned her agitation could cause a seizure and in turn, a fall. Related to fall interventions put in place for
fall on 2/14/25, V2 said that she thought that the review of the policy and having her sign it, because of her
agitation over not being able to smoke as often or as much due to extreme temperatures, would help to
remind her and calm her down because staff were concerned that with increased agitation that it could
cause a seizure and in turn a fall. Related to interventions put in place for fall on 2/26/25, V2 said that
re-education of staff on having resident lay down or sit down was an appropriate intervention because R33
literally inhales two cigarettes as quickly as possible, and they thought that her blood pressure was
bottoming out after she stood up. V2 said that having her sit down or lie down would help to bring her back
to her normal baseline blood pressure and keep her from having a seizure or passing out. Related to
4/18/25's interventions put in place for fall, V2 said they thought that was an appropriate intervention
because the facility wanted to draw levels to see if her therapeutic levels were too low, and if they could
contact (MD) medical doctor and have Keppra increased which would decrease risk of seizure. V2 said that
R33 is independent in all her activities of daily living (ADLs), so the only other intervention that she could
think of would be to have R33 one on one with a staff member, and that is very difficult to have one to one
staff/resident care.

Residents Affected - Few
Finding include
R4's admission Record documents an admission date of 2/1/2024. R4's admission Record documents
diagnosis including in part chronic combined systolic and diastolic heart failure, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), and panlobular emphysema.

R4's most recent Care Plan documents a diagnosis of COPD with an intervention of encourage/assist R4
with oxygen as orders/accepted/needed.
R4's Physician Orders for April 2025 document oxygen at 2L (liters) via NC (nasal cannula) or 5L via
oxygen mask and check oxygen saturation every shift, every day and night shift. There are no physician
orders as to when or how often to change oxygen tubing.
On 4/21/2025 at 2:39 PM, R4 was propelling himself down the hallway in his wheelchair and his oxygen
tubing was dragging on the floor behind him.
On 4/22/2025 at 10:30 AM, R4 was sitting in his wheelchair in room receiving oxygen via nasal cannula and

changed it will be in the MAR. V2 stated all oxygen tubing and the humification bottle should be dated when
changed.
On 04/24/25 at 1:24PM V2 (DON) stated that she would prefer that the oxygen tubing change be on the
MAR to be signed off completed because she could assess it faster, but it usually always goes on the TAR
(Treatment Administration Record).
R4's TAR for the month of April documents oxygen at 2L via NC or 5L via oxygen mask and check oxygen
saturation every shift, every day and night shift. R4's TAR does not contain any documentation as to when
or how often to change oxygen tubing, nor does it document R4's oxygen tubing has been changed.
