**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** THE
FOLLOWING DEFICIENCY REPRESENTS AN INCIDENT OF PAST NON-COMPLIANCE THAT WAS
SUBSEQUENTLY CORRECTED PRIOR TO THIS SURVEY.
Based on medical record review, observation, interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to
provide Resident #49 adequate assistance when transferring resulting in a fall with major injury.
Actual harm occurred on 01/13/24 when Resident #49, who required assistance of two people for transfers,
was transferred from the toilet to a shower chair by one person, resulting in a fall and non displaced fracture
on left metacarpal and closed fracture of radius and ulna in left forearm, requiring orthopedic surgery. This
affected one (Resident #49) of three residents reviewed for falls. The census was 159.
Findings Include:
Resident #49 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included but were not limited to
hemiplegia and hemiparesis, muscle weakness, need for assistance with personal care chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, cerebrovascular disease, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease (stage II), major
depressive disorder, and presence of left artificial knee joint. On 01/18/24 Resident #49's diagnoses were
updated to include unspecified fracture of fifth metacarpal bone (non-surgical orthopedic), unspecified
fracture of shaft of left ulna (orthopedic surgery), and unspecified fracture of shaft of left radius (orthopedic
surgery).
Review of Resident #49's care plan, dated 12/13/22, revealed she had an activity of daily living (ADL)/Self

respect her wishes. Prior to the x-ray being completed, Resident #49 agreed to go to the hospital for
evaluation. Her evaluation at the hospital found she had a non displaced fracture on left metacarpal (five)
and closed fracture of radius and ulna in left forearm. She was sent home with pain medication and a
referral to follow up with orthopedics. There was no specific information in the progress notes as to how
Resident #49 fell.
Review of Resident #49 Investigation Summary related to the fall, dated 01/13/24, revealed Resident #49
was being transferred from the toilet to her shower chair by one State Tested Nursing Aide (STNA), instead
of two staff as required. This was a contributing factor to her fall and injury.
Observation on 01/19/24 at 11:26 A.M. of Resident #49 revealed the resident was in her recliner reading.
Resident #49 had a sling to left arm and a cast to her wrist being elevated on a pillow. Interview with
Resident #49 at this time revealed she fell and broke her arm as well as bumped her head. She went on to
explain she went to the hospital and she had broken her wrist and hand bone. Resident #49 explained she
uses two people to help move her at any time.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #101 on 01/19/24 at 2:30 P.M. confirmed there was only one
staff person with Resident #49 at the time of the fall. She confirmed her care plan and [NAME] (document
to assist staff with the care of residents) was for Resident #49 to have two persons during all transfers. She
confirmed the outcome of the investigation found that the STNA did not ask for assistance with transferring
Resident #49 when she should have.
Review of facility Fall Management and Incident Intervention Protocol, dated July 2022, revealed it was the
policy of the facility to conduct an investigation into the potential causative factors for each resident incident,
including those classified as a fall. In addition, residents will be assessed as to their risk for sustaining a fall.
Interventions will be implemented and evaluated in order to decrease the incidence of resident incidents,
including falls, and to minimize the risk of injury. Nurse will assess for any injury sustained as a result of the
fall after occurrence. Post fall physical assessment may include vital signs, range of motion, skin
assessment, assessment of pain, and mental status. All assessment findings should be documented in the
clinical record. Movement of the resident from the original site and position of the fall should only take place
after assessment finding reveal that it will not cause further injury to do so. Documentation of the
assessment findings and initiation of treatment interventions should be completed as appropriate. The
physician and family will be made aware of the incident, as soon as possible, and evidence of notification
should be documented in the clinical record. Documentation will be completed on the post fall status of the
resident following the incident, in the clinical record. Any new interventions will be added to the resident
plan of care and will be communicated to the relevant nursing staff. All falls will be reviewed by the focus
group. Members will review events of the incident, and discuss possible recommendations and alterations
to resident's plan of care, including the appropriateness of PT/OT/Restorative referral.
The deficient practice was corrected on 01/15/24 when the facility implemented the following corrective
actions:
o On 01/13/24 Resident #49, who required assistance of two people for transfers, was transferred from the
toilet to a shower chair by one person, resulting in a fall.
o On 01/13/24 Resident #49 agreed to go to the hospital for evaluation and her evaluation found she had a
non-displaced fracture on left metacarpal (five) and closed fracture of radius and ulna in
