This affected one (Resident #76) of three residents reviewed for incidents. The census was 112. Findings Include: Resident #112 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses were cerebral infarction, dysarthria and anarthria, cognitive communication deficit, need for assistance, difficulty in walking, cerebral infarction, end stage renal disease, obstructive sleep apnea, hypertensive chronic kidney disease (stage V), chronic embolism and thrombosis, congestive heart failure, type II diabetes, hypothyroidism, morbid obesity, anemia, and hemiplegia and hemiparesis. Review of her minimum data set (MDS) assessment, dated 09/14/24, revealed she was cognitively intact. Review of Resident #112 occupational therapy notes, dated 08/20/24 but not written until 08/27/24, revealed patient complete opposition exercises, table top activities for grasp, heat with passive range of motion. Patient let go of two pound free weight and it rolled down leg and therapist tried to push away. Therapist asked if she was ok, and did not state she was having pain. Review of Resident #112 medical records, including progress notes, care plans, skin assessments, and investigation documentation, dated 08/20/24 to 08/22/24, found no evidence that this incident/accident was reported to the nursing staff or that a full assessment of Resident #112 leg was completed to ensure no injury was present. Review of Resident #112 progress notes, dated 08/23/24, revealed a nurse spoke with the facility physician and received an order for x- ray of Resident #112 left ankle. This was in response to Resident #112 complaining of left ankle/foot pain, level eight out of ten. Review of Resident #112 x-ray documentation, dated 08/23/24, revealed on 08/23/24, there is a nondisplaced fracture noted of the distal tibia of unknown acuity. The ankle mortise and talar dome appear normal. There is soft tissue swelling. Recommended clinical correlation. Axial imaging may be performed for further evaluation. Review of Resident #112 orthopedic appointment documentation, dated 08/29/24, revealed Resident #112 did not have a fracture but soft tissue injury; she was ordered to wear a boot and return for observation/review in one month.
