dementia, anxiety, and transient ischemic attack. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment, dated 02/14/24, revealed Resident #11 had impaired cognition, used a walker and wheelchair,
and required substantial/maximal assistance for bed mobility and transfers. Resident #11 demonstrated
wandering behaviors four to six days during the look-back period. Resident #11 had two or more falls
without injury since the previous assessment/admission.

to his left forearm. Resident #11 reported pain to his hip, and was transported to the local hospital by
Emergency Medical Services (EMS). The incident report and progress note not show the facility

the fall.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of the hospital records for Resident #11 dated 01/17/24 revealed Resident #11 was identified with a
left hip fracture, but due to previous hardware already in the vicinity, no operation was performed.
Interview on 02/26/24 at 3:04 P.M. with the DON regarding fall investigations revealed the facility discussed
falls during an IDT meeting and reviewed the circumstances, developed interventions, and updated the care
plan as needed. The DON stated the evidence of their investigation into each fall was an IDT note in each
resident's record.
Continued interview with the DON confirmed all fall investigations were verbal and no additional
documentation regarding their investigation was available. Further interview with the DON and concurrent
review of the incident report for the fall on 01/12/24 revealed Resident #11 was found seated on the floor
next to his bed. The DON was unable to verify whether the fall mat was in place. The DON directed
Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #501 to interview LPN #201, who documented the fall on 01/12/24
and was working in the facility during the interview, and have LPN #201 write a statement regarding
whether Resident #11 was on the fall mat when LPN #201 observed him on 01/12/24.
On 02/26/24 at approximately 3:25 P.M., ADON #501 provided a statement, handwritten by LPN #201,
dated 02/26/24. Review of the statement revealed Resident #11 was found on the floor next to his bed on
01/12/24 at 6:10 P.M. Resident #11 was seated on a floormat, and had no injuries.
Further interview on 02/26/24 at 3:40 P.M. with the DON regarding the fall incident report for Resident #11
dated 01/17/24 at 7:10 P.M., resulting in a fracture, revealed the facility could provide no evidence they
investigated the cause of the fall, the whereabouts of the fall mat, or what Resident #11 was doing prior to
the fall.
Interview on 02/26/24 at 4:29 P.M. with the DON, and concurrent review of a fall incident report for Resident
#11 dated 12/04/23 at 3:20 P.M. revealed Resident #11 was found between the bed and the chair. The
intervention was implemented was a fall mat and low bed. Interview with the DON revealed she could not
verify whether Resident #11 was in the bed or the chair prior to the fall. The DON stated she would have to
follow up with the nurse who documented the fall to determine where Resident #11 was prior to the fall.
Continued interview at that time with the DON, and concurrent review of the fall incident report for Resident
#11 dated 12/13/23 revealed the new intervention was to hang call for assistance signs. The DON could not
verify whether Resident #11 had his call light within reach at the time of the fall. The DON stated call lights
should be in reach, and staff would only document by exception; therefore, she would expect the call light
was within reach.
Review of the facility policy titled Fall Guidelines, revised 05/11/23, revealed the IDT would seek to identify
and document resident risk factors for falls. Additionally, a plan would be developed after the information
was gathered regarding a fall.
