window with a window screen. When V8 was asked regarding the importance of resident's windows to have
a window screen, V8 stated, It (referring to window screens) prevents flies and mosquitoes from entering
the resident's room and facility.

curtains. V17 stated that staff cleans the resident's privacy curtains as needed. V17 also explained that the
housekeeper assigned to the resident's room should be inspecting the resident's privacy curtains daily
when the resident's room is being cleaned. V17 stated that if a housekeeper observes a dirty privacy
curtain upon cleaning the resident's room, the housekeeper should remove the privacy curtain and the

At that time, Surveyor noted that R12 had facial hair (both above lip and on chin).
Surveyor inquired about R12's shaving schedule.
On 5/20/2024 at 11:10 AM, R12 said, I was supposed to get shaved yesterday (Sunday), but I didn't have
anyone to help me. I can shave myself if they just give me a razor, but they usually always shave my face
for me. It's ok. I just have to wait.
Surveyor asked if R12 wanted her face shaved now.
At that time, R12 said, Yes, I would love to have my face shaved now. It itches and I feel much better when
it's shaved.

next to R44's bed, so R44's bed was open on both sides. R44 stated, (V20 Certified Nursing
Assistant/CNA) was on the same (one) side and pushed me over to change me. I was holding onto the end
table. When (V20) pushed my (incontinence brief), (V20) pushed it under my buttock, and I fell face first on
the floor. I had bruises on my right knee and feet and my toes and elbow hurt. There was no side rail. When
asked if one or two CNAs assisted R44 with turning in bed for incontinence or activities of daily living (ADL)
care, R44 stated that there was one CNA, but now, a majority of the time, there's 2 people. When asked if
the staff move the bed away from the wall to stand on one side (with other CNA on the other side), R44
stated, No. I roll to the side and hang onto the wall. My body hits against the wall to keep me propped up.
R44 said that both CNAs stay on the one side for R44's care. R44 stated, I am not over it. I still have issues
of getting too close to the side. When asked how does this make R44 feel, R44 stated, I feel afraid on the
inside. I talked to my psychiatrist (V24) about it. R44 said that R44 even asked V24 if it was R44's fault that
R44 fell, and V24 said, You have nothing to do with it. It's not your fault. They had one aide there. It was their
mistake. R44 stated that V24 said to get it out of R44's head and to not think about it. R44 stated that R44
talked to V24 shortly after the fall happened on 2/23/24 with V2 (Director of Nursing/DON).
On 5/22/24 at 9:38 am, R44 was reinterviewed and stated that it was at 8:30pm on 2/23/24 when R44 fell
from the bed to the floor. When asked if R44 has expressed R44's feelings after R44's fall, R44 stated, I told
(V2), and I had talked to (V24) after I had fallen. I still have a phobia to falling off the side of my bed. R44
stated, (V2) was in the room with (V24) when I said that I am scared about rolling off the bed. I told (V2) the
other day too. R44 stated that before this fall on 2/23/24, I have never fallen before. When asked about a fall
mat as a fall precaution, R44 stated that there was one in the room but that there was problem with the
bedside table not rolling on it. R44 stated, I rely on that table. I tried it, and it wouldn't roll at all. R44 stated,
since I am larger, it's harder for me to move in bed. I can't move my legs. I have so much pain. R44 stated, I
can pull with my arms. They had even talked about a trapeze, but that didn't come to be.

On 5/22/24 at 2:43pm, V20 (CNA) stated that R44 is alert, and (R44) is bed bound. When asked about
R44's fall incident on 2/23/24, V20 stated that V20 was taking care of R44 in R44's new room on the
3:00pm to 11:00pm shift, and it was about 8:30pm. V20 stated, I (V20) was changing (R44's) (incontinence
brief), cleaning (R44) on the bed. There's no bed rail. (R44's) bed was not against the wall. I turned (R44)
by myself. (R44) usually holds onto the side of the bed frame with (R44's) hand on that side. I was just
ready to bring (R44) back to me when I realized that (R44) fell. I hollered help. No one came. I had to come
out the room. I said to (V27, Security), 'Please call the nurse (V18, Registered Nurse/RN). I need help'. V20
stated that V18 then came into R44's room, assessed R44, and then 911 emergency services were called.
When asking V20 about what action in R44's care was V20 performing when R44 fell off the bed, V20
stated, I was putting (incontinence brief) on (R44). I (V20) had rolled (R44) away from me. I was behind
(R44), and I pull (R44) back to put clean (incontinence brief) under (R44's) hip. I just slid it (clean
incontinence brief) under hips, and R44 fall out of bed. When asked how high the bed was during R44's
care on 2/23/24 at 8:30pm, V20 stated that V20 had raised to the height of R44's bed to about V20's waist
for V20 to provide R44's care. When asked if R44 was in the middle of the bed when turning R44, V20 said
that V20 usually makes sure that residents are in the middle but didn't with R44. V20 stated that R44 landed
on the floor, and I run around the bed and look at (R44) on the floor. That's the first thing I did, run around
and see (R44). Then I hollered for help. No one. Then I run out by the room door and holler to (V27) to send
in (V18). V20 stated that after V18 responded, V18 informed V20 that two staff members usually turn R44 in
bed. V20 stated that V20 told V18, I never had a problem with (R44) before, but (R44) was in a room with
bed against the wall. This bed was open on both sides. I didn't think something like this was going to
happen. Can (R44) have a bed rail? I cared for (R44) before with one person. Bed was against the wall, I
did it before. When asked, how does V20 know how many staff persons it takes to assist residents with bed
mobility, V20 stated, I look at their size. I had been able to do (R44) with one before, but I know now that I
need two. If it's a large person, common sense tells you, you need two. When asked if V20 looks in the
chart for assistance level, V20 stated yes, but couldn't tell where to this surveyor. On 2/23/24, V20 was
asked if R44 needed two staff persons for assistance with turning, V20 stated, At that time, no. Not need
two people. (sic) When asked if R44 moves R44's legs in bed, (V20 shaking V20's head no) and stated,
(R44) does not move (R44) legs.

On 5/21/24 at 2:19pm, V18 (RN) stated that R44 is alert, oriented, stays in the bed and is almost bed
bound. When asked about R44's fall incident on 2/23/24, V18 stated that V18 was made aware of R44's fall
when V20 (CNA) came to V18 and said that R44's on the floor. V18 stated that V18 went to the room, and
R44 was laying, face down on the floor and that R44 said R44 fell when V20 was taking care of R44. When
asked if V18 had performed incontinence care with R44 prior to the fall on 2/23/24, V18 stated that V18 had
an admission that day. V18 stated that when R44 fell, I (V18) called 911. (R44) is very big (weight). There
was one CNA (V20) on the floor. (V20) was elderly. (R44) stayed on the floor. When asked about R44's
position, V18 stated that R44's bed was open on both side with no side rails, and R44's position on floor
was face first. V18 stated that R44's body on the floor was parallel with the bed and was in between the wall
and nightstand (end table) where there was a wall near R44's head. V18 stated that R44 was alert and said
that R44 bumped R44's head on the wall. When asked if R44 complained of pain after the fall on 2/23/24 at
8:30pm, V18 stated, Yes, (R44) had pain. I gave (R44) pain meds a few hours before the fall. I gave (R44)
all (R44's) meds. When asked about where R44 was complaining of pain, V18 stated, (R44) didn't talk
much due to position (laying face down on floor). I just moved (R44's) head to put pillow and and use sheet
to cover (R44). (R44) was naked. V18 stated that (R44) did have redness to right side of R44's face. V18
stated that V18 did not medicate R44 with any pain medication due to already giving R44's pain medication
prior to R44's fall. V18 stated that when V18 gave R44 the medications before R44's fall, R44's bed was in
the low position; however, when V18 went in with V20 (CNA) after the fall, (R44's) bed was high. (V20) was
taking care of (R44).
In R44's Progress Note, dated 2/23/24 at 9:09pm, V18 (RN) documents, in part, At 8:40pm, writer was

room and found (R44) on the floor facing down, initials assessment done, noted with redness on right-side
of the face, no bleeding noted, voiced 5/10 on pain scale, resident states 'I hit my head on the wall'.
R44's February 2024 MAR (Medication Administration Record) shows that on 2/23/24 from 3:00pm to
11:00pm, there is no documentation of Hydrocodone 5 milligram (mg)/Acetaminophen 325 mg tablet oral

Facility document, titled CNA Assignment Sheet and dated 2/23/24 for 3:00pm to 11:00pm shift (on R44's
new floor from transfer date of 2/13/24), documents, in part, that V18 is the nurse assigned, and V20 is the
one CNA assigned to the floor.
R44's emergency hospital records, dated 2/23/24, document, in part, that R44 was being changed at the
nursing home and fell off of the bed. (R44) with head strike and pain to right arm, bilateral feet, and that
R44's pain to right arm and bilateral ankles is exacerbated from baseline.
On 5/22/24 at 10:16am, V4 (Restorative Nurse, Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated that R44 was
receiving bed mobility for restorative therapy because R44 had reached R44's maximum potential with
transfers in skilled therapy. V22 stated that with standing, (R44) could not do it. (R44) can't with left leg.
When asked about bed mobility for R44, V4 stated that it's how (R44) can maneuver left to right in bed and
repositioning. V4 stated that it's done with the CNA staff and also with the restorative aide (V5). When
asked what R44's bed mobility staff assistance level for turning left to right in bed is, V4 stated, Substantial
maximum assist with 2 persons. It needs to be 2 persons. It's for safety purposes. (R44) has no side rails.
One person is on one side of the bed and the other person is on the other side of the bed to avoid falls.
When asked how this is done when one side of R44's bed is up against the wall, V4 stated that the aides

person is on one side and the other person is on the opposite side. When asked about side rails as an
option for R44, V4 stated that it's our facility policy of no side rails. We don't have side rails. V4 stated,
That's why at all times for R44's changes (incontinence care), it has to be 2 persons. When asked about
R44's fall on 2/23/24, V4 stated, (V20) tried doing (R44's) care alone. It caused the fall. There was no other
CNA on the floor. That was the problem. When this surveyor informed V4 that R44 stated R44 is utilizing the
end table next to R44's bed for support when there is one CNA turning R44 in bed, V4 stated, That's not
acceptable. (R44) should not be holding that. There should be someone there. The nightstand is used for
(R44's) personal things. V4 stated, (R44) has pain all the time with legs causing decreased mobility in bed
which is why R44 is a two person assist for bed mobility.
R44's Restorative Program Notes, dated 1/15/24, documents, in part, that R44 is receiving bed mobility
restorative therapy with (R44) is working towards set bed mobility goal of turning onto left side with
substantial maximal assist from staff, goal ongoing and that R44 has presence of left artificial knee joint,
weakness, other lack of coordination and pain in left leg, and has decreased ROM (range of motion) to BLE
(bilateral lower extremity).
R44's Restorative Functional Assessment, dated 1/17/24, documents, in part, that R44 was noted with
decreased bed mobility skills, total to substantial maximal assist from staff was provided to resident when
performing bed mobility maneuvering and repositioning and that R44 is
non-ambulatory/wheelchair/bedbound.
On 5/22/24 at 11:20am, V2 (DON) stated that V2 was notified by V18 (RN) on 2/23/24 about R44's fall.
When asked if V2 inquired about details of the fall incident, V2 stated, I (V2) asked what happened and
(V18) said that (V2) was repositioning (R44) and (R44) fell. I (V2) asked (V18) if (V20) asked (V18) for help
because (R44) is a two person assist. (V18) said no. When asked about R44's fall on 2/23/24, V2 stated
that (R44) had never fallen before, and that since R44 had surgery on left leg with a pin inserted, R44
cannot bend the left knee. V2 stated that R44 has received multiple skilled therapy sessions to strengthen
R44's legs, but R44 has reached the maximum potential. V2 stated that R44 sees V24 (Psychiatrist) for
depression. When asked if V2 was with V24 (Psychiatrist) on 3/7/24, when V24 was talking to R44 after the
fall on 2/23/24, Yes, I did rounds with (V24) after the fall. (R44) said that (R44) was scared and
apprehensive with (staff) turning her. I assured (R44) that we will make sure proper staff provide R44's
care. When asked if V2 has spoken to R44 about still feeling scared with receiving care in bed, V2 said that
V2 hasn't and will make sure that V2 supervises R44's care. V2 stated, I understand that (R44's) kind of
scared but will have to overcome that gradually. V2 stated that two persons are there during care so R44
should not have that feeling of being scared. This surveyor informed V2 that R44 said that when staff turn
R44 now, R44 uses the wall as a support device, and V2 stated, That should never be. That's inappropriate.
It should be two persons. V2 stated, It's never appropriate to use the wall like that. It should never happen.
V2 stated, (R44's) care planned for two people to assist. When asked if using two persons for turning R44
in bed is ensuring that R44 is feeling safe and not scared, V2 stated, Yes.
On 5/23/24 at 4:46pm, V24 (Psychiatrist) stated that V24 sees R44 in the facility for depression and anxiety.
This surveyor explained to V24 about the review of R44's fall incident on 2/23/24 in the facility. When asked
if R44 and V24 had a conversation about R44's fall after it occurred, Yes. V24 stated, It was the caregiver
(V20) turning (R44) too fast or positioning. I provided (R44) more comfort. I told (R44) not to feel anxious
about this one caregiver (V20) and try not to generalize it to all staff. When asked if R44 stated to V24 that
R44 was still feeling afraid and scared after the fall when R44 is having care rendered by staff, V24 stated,
Correct. V24 stated that R44 has a fear

Ensure that the facility has sufficient staff members who possess the competencies and skills to meet the
behavioral health needs of residents.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to have a Psychiatric Rehabilitation
Services Coordinator (PRSC) to meet the individualized psychosocial and mental health needs of
residents. This failure has the potential to affect all 68 residents with diagnoses of Severe Mental Illness
and other residents in the facility who require psychosocial support.
Findings include:
On 5/20/24 at 10:15am after the entrance conference, V1 (Administrator) presented the facility census as
96 residents. On 5/21/23 at 2:20pm, V21(RN/Registered Nurse/Care Plan Nurse) presented the list of 68
residents with severe mental illness (SMI) and stated, We have a total of 68 SMI residents.
On 5/20/24 between 10:30am and 12:00pm, several residents including R65, R79, R86, R88, and R195,
were observed just sitting in the room with flat affect and low mood.
On 5/21/24 at 10:44am, both R86 and R88 (roommates) were observed sitting in their beds doing nothing.
The surveyor asked both residents about receiving the services of a counselor, PRSC, or a therapist. R88
stated I have not seen any counselor or therapist since I came here. I've been here for 4 months. R86
stated No one cares to know how you're feeling. Also, R65, R79, and R195 denied seeing or talking with a
counselor/PRSC recently.
On 5/21/24 at 11:55am, V10 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) and V11 (Certified Nurse Assistant/CNA)
were observed and interviewed on the nursing units regarding the availability of social service staff to
speak with residents individually. V10 stated that V16 (Social Services Director/PRSD - Psychiatric
Rehabilitation Services Director), is the Social Worker for all the residents. Again, on 5/21/24 between
10:20am and 12:00pm, no PRSC was observed on the nursing units to interact with the residents.
On 5/21/24 at 10:22am, V16 (Social Services Director/PRSD - Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services Director),
was asked to explain how she (V16) was able to provide individualized psychosocial and mental health
services to all 96 residents in the facility and especially the 68 residents with diagnoses of SMI. V16 stated
that she (V16) recently started work at the facility and she is doing her best with the residents. V16 stated a
therapist comes twice a week to do groups for the residents. V16 was asked about what services the PRSC
is supposed to provide for residents if a PRSC is hired. V16 stated Assessments, groups, and sometimes
1:1 as needed.
On 5/21/24 at 11:25am, the surveyor called V1 (Administrator) to express the concern that only V16
(PRSD/Social Services Director) is responsible for providing psychosocial services for 96 residents,
