**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to implement their fall protocol by failing to
re-assess a resident after a fall and failed to implement care plan interventions for one (R1) of three
residents reviewed for falls.
Findings include:
R1's medical record (Face Sheet) documents R1 is a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on
5.25.2022 with diagnoses including but not limited to: Epilepsy, Bipolar Disorder, Paranoid Schizophrenia,
Lack of Coordination, and Difficulty in Walking. R1's MDS (Minimum Data Set of 7-7-2023) documents R1 is
moderately cognitively impaired and experiences hallucinations and exhibits delusions.
On 9-30-2023 at 12:05 PM, R1 was observed awake and alert sitting on the side of her bed eating lunch. A
soft helmet was noted on R1's head; a CAM (controlled ankle movement) boot was noted on R1's left lower
extremity. There were no floor mats noted on the floor in front of resident's bed.
On 9-30-2023 at 3:55 PM, V8 (Restorative Supervisor) said, fall assessments should be completed upon
admission, quarterly, after a fall incident, and when there is a significant change in condition. A fall
assessment was not completed after R1's fall (in August).
On 9-30-2023 at 5:05 PM, V8 (Restorative Supervisor) said, R1's floor mats should be in place when she is
lying in or sitting on R1's bed.
On 9-30-2023 at 5:59 PM, V1 (Administrator) said, R1 does have a history of falls; all falls were related to
seizure activity. We monitor her every 15 minutes, placed her in a low bed, encouraged her to call for
assistance. After the fall, we put a leaf on her headboard (to alert staff she is a fall risk), moved her closer
to the Nurses Station, placed mat on floor. The mat should be in place when she is in bed or sitting on bed.
Fall risk assessments should be completed upon admission, quarterly, after a fall, and when there is a
change in condition.
R1's care plan: Resident has had multiple falls and is deemed a high fall risk due to diagnosis of seizures
without clear warning signs or ability to verbalize when seizures may occur secondary to psych diagnosis
(revised 9-16-2023) documents the following intervention: Floor mats to be placed around bed.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to maintain accurately documented medical records
for one (R1) of three residents reviewed for documentation of medical records.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 10-2-2023 at 11:39 AM, via return phone call by V19 (Agency LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse) to
Surveyor, V19 said, I wasn't there when R1 had a seizure. PT (Physical Therapy) and CNA (Certified
Nursing Assistant) said there was something off about R1. That's when they said she may have had a
seizure and fell. I assessed her; there was a difference in size between her ankles, the left ankle was
swollen, larger than the right. The seizure happened somewhere before my shift started on the midnight
shift. She wasn't experiencing excruciating pain, there was no obvious deformity to extremity noted. I tried
to look back on 24-hour report, I didn't see anything in the communication book about a seizure. The
off-going nurse never reported to me that R1 had a seizure on the midnight shift.
V20 (Agency LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse) was not available for interview (overseas per
V1-Administrator).
V20's (Agency LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse) progress notes from 8-7-2023 at 7:37 AM, documents:
Resident had a seizure that lasted for 5 mins in the day room on 2nd floor. All seizure precautions in place.
Resident placed on left side. Resident was assessed for injury. No physical injury noted. VS-BP 128/80,
T-97.3, R-18, P-90, SPO2-95% RA (room air). Resident was assisted by 2 staff via wheelchair to her room.
Bed placed on lowest position. Call light within reach. Nod (Nurse on duty) will continue to monitor.
V1's (Administrator) progress notes from 8-10-2023 at 3:19 PM, documents: After final
investigation/patient/staff interview, NOD (Nurse on Duty) states the approximate time for possible seizure
was no more than 2 minutes and seizure was not witnessed. MD and POA was made aware.
Documentation Basics policy (2021) documents: Documentation must be accurate and appropriate in
content.
