**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a cervical neck collar and ace wraps
were in place as ordered, failed to clarify physician prescribed medication orders to ensure a resident
received the medications and failed to perform an assessment immediately after and following a fall for 4 of
20 residents (R36, R52, R47 and R299) reviewed for quality of care in the sample of 20.
Residents Affected - Some
The findings include:
1. On 6/9/25 11:35 AM, R36 was lying in bed and had a cast on her right lower leg. R36 said that she had a
fall in the bathroom and broke her leg. On 6/10/25 at 10:20 AM, V34 (R36's Spouse) said that he came in
on 5/11/25 and R36 was on the floor of the bathroom. V34 said that a male and female staff member came
in and lifted her back up into her wheelchair. V34 said that a couple days later, he noticed that her leg was
bruised, and her foot was pointed in an abnormal position.
On 6/10/25 at 12:19 PM, V22, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) said that on 5/11/25, R36 had a fall in the
bathroom. V22 said that R36 was holding the grab bar in the bathroom, and she began to fall. V22 said that
she put her right knee onto the floor and was still standing on her left leg. V22 said that he assisted her into
a sitting position and when he did that, her right leg was stuck under her weight, so he pulled her right leg
out from under her to make her more comfortable. V22 said that he then went and got V32 (CNA) to assist
him in getting R36 off of the floor and into her wheelchair. V22 said that V32 was in front of R36, and he
was behind R36, and they lifted her off the floor and into her wheelchair. V22 said that after they got R36
into the wheelchair, he went and told the nurse, and she came in and did an assessment.
On 6/11/25 at 12:51 PM, V32 said that V22 had requested her assistance to help with R36. V32 said that
she entered R36's room and R36 was on the floor in the bathroom. V32 said that V22 and herself lifted R36
up from the bathroom floor with a gait belt and placed her into her wheelchair.
R36's Nursing Incident Note dated 5/11/25 at 6:44 PM shows, CNA informed writer patient had slid off her
WC (wheelchair) while transferring from toilet to wheelchair. Writer immediately proceeded to assess
patient. Upon entering room patient on sitting up WC
On 6/11/25 at 10:38 AM, V5 (Director of Nursing) said that once a resident falls, the staff should
immediately call the nurse before moving the resident so the nurse can do a thorough assessment. V5 said
that the resident should not be moved until the nurse does an assessment and feels it is safe to move the
resident. V5 said that it is their policy for the nurse to complete a fall assessment in the computer and do
follow up fall assessments every 8 hours for the next three day. V5 said that the follow up fall assessments
entail asking the resident if they are having pain, checking their vitals, assessing for any bruising or other
symptoms, checking for a change in mental status, mobility or change in sleep. V5 reviewed R36's
electronic medical record and said that she does not see that any fall follow up assessments were
completed after R36's fall.
R36's Nursing Notes from 5/12/25 to 5/20/25 were reviewed. There were no nursing assessments
documented. R36's Nursing Note dated 5/21/25 shows, Patient returned from therapy c/o (complains of)
increased pain in right ankle. Patient states it started last night and is worse now after therapy Ankle is
swollen and looks abnormal, but that is the patient's baseline. Ankle elevated with pillow and ice pack

for s/sx (signs and symptoms): Pain, bruises, change in mental status, new onset: confusion, sleepiness,
inability to maintain posture, agitation.
The facility's Assessing Falls and Their Causes Policy revised 3/2018 shows, If a resident has just fallen, or
is found on the floor without a witness to the event, evaluate for possible injuries to the head, neck, spine,
and extremities If an assessment rules out significant injury, help the resident to a comfortable sitting, lying
or standing position and then document relevant details Observe for delayed complications of a fall for
approximately forty-eight (48) hours after an observed or suspected fall, and document findings in the
medical record. Document any observed signs or symptoms of pain, swelling, bruising, deformity and/or
decreased mobility; and any changes in level of responsiveness/consciousness and overall function. Note
the presence or absence of significant findings.
2. R52's Podiatry Note dated 6/3/25 shows, Edema Control- Ace Wrap BLE (Bilateral Lower Extremities)
On 6/9/25 at 11:50 AM, R52 was sitting in his wheelchair in his room. R52's lower extremities were swollen
and reddened. R52 had socks on. R52 had ace wraps located on his windowsill. R52 said that he sees a
podiatrist due to wounds on his legs. R52 said that the podiatrist is concerned about the swelling in his
legs. R52 said that he used to wear support stockings on his legs, but they were too tight. R52 said that the
last time that he went to the podiatrist, they put ace wraps on his legs, and it felt a lot better than the
support stockings. R52 said that when the nursing staff at the facility changed his dressing, they did not
re-apply the ace wraps. R52 said, I am not sure why they do not put them back on, maybe they think that I
don't need them.
On 6/10/25 at 10:00 AM, R52 was sitting in his wheelchair. R52's legs were swollen, and he did not have
ace wraps applied to them.
R52's June Medication Administration Record (MAR) shows an order for Tubigrip (elasticated tubular
bandage) on right and left lower extremities in the morning every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. These
were signed out as applied on 6/9/25 at 9:00 AM. There was no order for ace wraps to be applied on R52's
MAR. R52's Physician's Order Sheet printed on 6/9/25 does not show an order for ace wraps.
On 6/11/25 at 10:35 AM, V14 (Wound Care Nurse) said that when R52 returned from his podiatry
appointment, the ace wrap orders should have been entered into the computer by the nurse. V14 said that if
a resident comes back to the facility with new wound orders, they should either put the orders into the
system or notify the wound nurse. V14 said that she did speak to the nurse regarding the order, and it was
a communication issue. V14 said that the nurse did see the order but never put it into the computer.
On 6/10/25 at 11:02 AM, V4 (Director of Nursing) said that if a resident goes out to a doctor's appointment,
it is the floor nurse's responsibility to enter any new orders into the computer system.
4. R299's admission Record showed R299 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis of a
cervical vertebral fracture of his neck due to a fall.

R299's physician order dated 6/8/25 showed R299 was to wear a soft cervical collar around his neck, at all
times, as treatment for his vertebrae fracture.
On 6/9/25 at 9:06 AM, R299 was in bed, lying on his back. A soft, cervical neck collar was noted in R299's
bed, however the collar was not secured around R299's neck. The collar laid loosely on R299's pillow.
Residents Affected - Some
On 6/9/25 at 9:33 AM, V6 Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) began providing incontinence care to R299.
R299's neck collar laid loosely on his bed; not secured in place around R299's neck at any point. When V6
repositioned R299 on his right side in bed, R299 complained of neck pain as his head fell back towards the
pillow, during the repositioning. After completing incontinence care on R299 and as V6 repositioned him on
his back in bed. R299 again complained of neck pain with repositioning.
On 6/10/25 at 10:34 AM, V5 Director of Nursing (DON) stated R299 should have a cervical collar in place
around his neck at all times especially when doing cares and repositioning him to support his neck. V5
stated, I believe he has the collar because he fell and fractured his neck. The collar should be secured in
place around his neck.
3. R47's face sheet shows he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] from a local community hospital. R47's
After Visit Summary from the hospital provided to the facility on admission shows he had an order for
mirtazapine (Remeron) 15 milligrams (mg.) to be given every night at bedtime for 30 days.
R47's Order Summary Report shows an order for mirtazapine 15 mg. to be started on 4/6/25 and ended on
5/6/25.
On 6/9/25 at 9:22 AM, V13 (R1's daughter and Power of Attorney) said she had a concern at the facility
because R47 had been taking Remeron at home for an appetite stimulant and to help him sleep and the
facility just stopped the medication for a couple of weeks. V13 said she is not sure why the medication was
stopped no one could tell her but he is taking the medication again now.
A physician note completed on 4/7/25 by V17 (R47's Primary Care Physician) shows he was aware that
R47 was taking mirtazapine 15 mg at bedtime and documented the medication should be reviewed for an
indication for use.
A physician note completed on 4/14/25 by V11 (Psychiatrist) shows she spoke with V13 who had told her
that R47 had been taking mirtazapine (Remeron) for 4 years for insomnia and for a weight stimulant. V11's
note states, Continue Remeron 15 mg QHS, which he has been on for 4 years and tolerated well for
insomnia and help with appetite. V11's note does not specify a stop date.
R47's 5/1/25-5/31/25 Medication Administration Summary (MAR) shows his mirtazapine was stopped on
5/5/25 and restarted on 5/25/25.
A provider note completed on 5/22/25 by V12 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner) shows V12 documented for
R47's mirtazapine to be restarted at 7.5 mg. every night for appetite and depression.
On 6/10/25 at 10:09 AM, V5 (Director of Nursing) said what happened with R47's mirtazapine was that he
came in with a hospital order for it to only be for 30 days and that nurse who admitted him was new and did
not know they shouldn't enter admission orders for only 30 days. V5 said facility nurses should also clarify
with a physician the duration the medication should be given. V5 said V17 is

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
On 6/10/25 at 12:53 PM, V4 said in his opinion this is a provider and hospital issue that the medication was
only initially ordered for 30 days. The physician who assessed and documented the medication should have
continued it and also should have specified how long they wanted the medication for. V4 said a verbal order
for the medication should have been given.
Residents Affected - Some
On 6/11/25 at 8:46 AM, V11 (Psychiatrist) said she could not recall if she gave a verbal order to continue
the medication to any nurses when she saw R47 on 4/14/25, and typically when she sees residents at the
facility she will go back and document the note in the residents Medical Record. V11 said she was not able
to comment for the facility about why the medication was discontinued.
On 06/10/25 at 1:45 PM, V30 (Registered Nurse) said when residents are admitted orders need to be
clarified and if a medication is suddenly stopped, they have to contact the physician to clarify if the
medication should be stopped especially for psychotropic medications.
The facility provided Medication and Treatment Orders policy last revised on July 2016 shows that
medication orders should include start and stop dates and if an order does not contain those and a stop
order becomes effective due to the medication not having a stop dated the supervisor on duty must contact
the prescriber or attending physician to determine if the medication should be continued.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to have fall interventions in place for a resident at
risk for fall and failed to ensure a resident was transferred safely for 2 of 20 residents (R33 and R36)
reviewed for safety and supervision in the sample of 20. This failure resulted in R36 falling and sustaining a
right ankle fracture that required surgical repair.
The finding include:
1. R36's Face Sheet shows that she admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of: cellulitis of right
and left lower limbs, unsteadiness of feet, abnormalities of gait, reduced mobility and morbid obesity.
R36's Functional Status Note dated 4/29/25 shows that R36 requires partial/moderate assistance to stand
from sitting and transfer from bed to chair.
On 6/9/25 at 11:35 AM, R36 was lying in bed. R36 had a cast on her right lower leg. R36 said that she fell
in the bathroom and broke her leg.
On 6/10/25 at 10:20 AM, V34 (R36's Spouse) said that he came in on 5/11/25 and R36 was sitting on the
bathroom floor and had fallen. V34 said that a couple days later, R36's right leg was bruised, and her foot
was pointed in an abnormal position. V34 said that eventually R36 had an X-ray and it showed that she had
a fracture in two areas, and she had surgery.
On 6/10/25 at 12:19 PM, V22, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) said that on 5/11/25, R36 had a fall in the
bathroom. V22 said that he brought R36 into the bathroom to transfer to the toilet. V22 said that he
instructed R36 to hold the grab bar and stand. V22 said that as R36 stood up, she lost her balance and
started to fall. V22 said that he tried to place the wheelchair under her before she fell but was unable to. V22
said that when R36 fell, her right knee hit the floor, but she was still holding onto the grab bar and standing
on her left leg. V22 said that he guided her to a sitting position on the floor. V22 said that when she was in
the sitting position on the floor, her left leg was extended in front of her, and her right leg was under her

likely that R36 received a small fracture during her fall on 5/11/25 but it worsened due to participation with
therapy. V4 said that R36 had no other incident that had happened between R36's fall and the finding of the
fracture.
Residents Affected - Few
R36's right ankle X-ray results from 5/21/25 shows, There is an acute fracture of the distal fibula and of the
medial malleolus with subluxation of the tibia on the talus medially There is soft tissue swelling diffusely.
R36's Orthopedic Surgery Consult Note dated 5/22/25 shows, Patient is a 69 y.o. female who presents with
right ankle fracture. She presented to my clinic today for this issue. The patient fell at her rehab on Mother's
Day (5/11). She states that she had pain and swelling to the ankle over the past week and then they
eventually got x-rays after she was in too much pain to ambulate with PT (Physical Therapy) there is
moderate swelling to the ankle diffusely. There is tenderness medial and laterally Assessment: Right ankle
bimalleolar fracture subluxation .Plan for ORIF (Open Reduction Internal Fixation) right ankle 5/23.
The facility's Final Investigation Summary dated 5/23/25 shows, Resident Injury-Confirmed Fracture
Post-Fall Based on the clinical record and timeline, no localized symptoms or signs of ankle injury were
evident immediately following the assisted fall on 5/11/25 or in the days afterward However, the subsequent
right ankle fracture confirmed on 5/21/25 may reflect an initially minor or hairline fracture caused by the
assisted fall. Factors supporting this possibility include: The resident's high pain threshold and non-localized
chronic lower extremity pain masking early injury. Morbid obesity contributes to mechanical stress and
potential progression of injury.
The facility's Gait Belt Policy revised on 1/2025 shows, Staff will use a gait/transfer belt on residents who
need limited to total assistance with transfer or walking.

at 11:35 AM, R36 was lying in bed. R36 said that she is getting treatment for the wounds on her buttock.
R36's room door did not have a sign on it saying she was on EBP (Enhanced Barrier Precautions) nor was
there PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) outside of R36's room.
Residents Affected - Some
On 6/9/25 at 11:37 AM, V7 (Infection Preventionist) put an EBP sign on R36's door and a cart of PPE
outside of the door.
On 6/9/25 at 2:25 PM, V7 said that she did just put R36's EBP sign on her door that day. V7 said that she
was reviewing charts and noticed that R36 came back from the hospital with multiple wounds and should
have been placed on EBP upon her re-admission.
R36's Physician's Order Sheet printed on 6/9/25 shows that she re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] and an
order for EBP for wounds was placed on 6/9/25.
R36's Wound assessment dated [DATE] shows that she has an unstageable pressure injury on her left hip,
right hip and buttock and a stage 3 pressure injury on her left lower buttock.
The facility's Enhanced Barrier Precautions Policy shows, EBPs are indicated (when contact precautions do
not otherwise apply) for residents with wounds EBPs remain in place for the duration of the resident's stay
or until resolution of the wound signs are posted in the door or wall outside the resident room indicating the
type of precautions and PPE required.
Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to implement Enhanced Barrier
Precautions (EBP) for a resident with a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) and a resident with a wound. The facility
failed to inform a resident's private caregiver the resident was on Contact Isolation for an infection and
failed to educate the caregiver on wearing PPE (personal protection equipment) in the resident's room. The
facility failed to ensure staff changed their gloves and washed their hands to prevent cross contamination.
These failures apply to 4 of 20 residents (R299, R301, R300, R36) reviewed for infection control in the
sample of 20.
The findings include:
1. R299's admission Record showed R299 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
R299's admission care plan showed R299 required Enhanced Barrier Precautions due to R299 being
admitted to the facility with a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) in place for nutrition/enteral feedings.
On 6/9/25 at 9:06 AM, no EBP isolation sign hung on or around the door/doorframe to R299's room. Upon
entrance to R299's room, V10 Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) was holding R299's G-tube in her hand. V10
wore gloves but no gown. V10 LPN stated she had just finished giving R299 his morning medications via
his G-tube.
On 6/9/25 at 9:33 AM, V6 Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) donned gloves and began to provide
incontinence care to R299 as he was incontinent of urine. V6 CNA wiped R299's perineal area and
