**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of a self-reported incident (SRI), record review, facility investigation, policy review, and resident and
staff interviews, and radiologist interview, the facility failed to ensure Resident #7 received proper
assistance during transfers to prevent accidents. Actual Harm occurred on 07/11/25 when Resident #7
sustained a left rib fracture following an improper transfer by facility staff. This affected one (#7) of six
residents reviewed for accidents. The facility census was 91.Findings include: Review of Resident #7's
medical record revealed an admission date of 04/08/25. Diagnoses included chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease, weakness, spinal stenosis of the lumbar region with neurogenic claudication, and adult failure to
thrive. Review of Resident #7's care plan dated 04/08/25 revealed Resident #7 was at risk for falls related to
functional decline, weakness, and bedbound status. Interventions included to assist with two staff members
for transfers (implemented 04/09/25), and assistance with locomotion on and off the unit (implemented
04/09/25). The care plan was updated on 10/16/25 for staff education to lock wheelchair brakes. The
nursing note dated 07/11/25 at 8:41 A.M. revealed Resident #7 complained of left rib pain and requested an
X-ray due to pain with inhalation, exhalation, and movement. The nurse notified the nurse practitioner, and
an order for an X-ray was obtained. Review of the X-Ray results dated 07/11/25 at 10:07 P.M. revealed the
findings included a new acute nondisclosed left tenth rib fracture. The results were reported on 07/12/25 at
7:53 A.M. from mobilex after being reviewed by Radiologist #700. A progress note dated 07/12/25 revealed
the nurse practitioner was updated on X-ray results. Review of the facility's SRI Control Number 262699,
dated 07/12/25, revealed a report of Resident #7 sustaining a left rib fracture during a transfer. Licensed
Practical Nurse (LPN) #494's written statement revealed on 07/11/25, Resident #7 reported left rib pain
during morning care. The nurse performed a head-to-to-toe assessment. Resident #7 stated, I think the
aide squeezed me too hard and broke my rib, but was unable to recall the name of the staff member or the
exact date the incident. Resident #7 stated it may have been a couple of days ago. LPN #494 notified the
provider and obtained an order for a chest X-ray. The X-ray, completed on 07/12/25, revealed a new acute
nondisplaced left tenth rib fracture. The physician was notified of the results. Administration completed
additional training to the facility staff regarding pivot transfers to ensure appropriate transfer technique was
provided to the residents. A progress note dated 07/13/25 revealed a new order for a lidocaine patch to the
left rib as needed. The quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #7
had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15, indicating her cognition remained intact and
continued to be dependent on staff for transfers. The nursing note dated 10/13/25 at 10:55 A.M. revealed a
certified nursing assistant (CNA) reported she had to lower Resident #7 to the floor during a transfer from
bed to chair because one of the wheelchair brakes was not locked, causing the wheelchair to move. The
nurse was immediately notified, and a head-to-toe assessment was completed. The resident denied pain,

injuries were noted at that time. The progress note dated 10/13/25 at 12:14 P.M. revealed Resident #7
complained of left hip pain following another transfer. An X-ray was ordered for her left knee, hip, and elbow.
The X-Ray results dated 10/14/25 revealed Resident #7's left elbow, knee, and hip had no acute osseous
findings, and the left hip is in alignment with mild osteoarthritis of the left hip with no fracture or dislocation
seen. Interviews conducted on 10/16/25 at 11:18 A.M. with Resident #7 revealed she could not recall the
name of the CNA who transferred her in July but stated the CNA performed the transfer alone. Resident #7
stated the aide squeezed too tight, and she immediately felt pain, telling the CNA, I think you broke my rib.
Resident #7 stated she informed the nurse of her pain, but she could not recall the nurse's name. She
stated she was crying in pain, and the transfer that caused the rib fracture occurred the same day she
reported the injury. At 12:20 P.M., Resident #7 stated for the transfer in July, only one CNA performed the
transfer. She reported that a mechanical lift (Hoyer lift) had not been used for some time but could not recall
when it was last used. Resident #7 also stated only one CNA performed the transfer on 10/13/25 and she
had to be lowered to the ground. An interview conducted on 10/16/25 at 1:10 P.M. with LPN #466 identified
CNA #353 reported having to lower Resident #7 to the floor due to the wheelchair not being locked. LPN
#466 stated she believed CNA #353 was working alone during the transfer, but this was never confirmed.
An interview conducted on 10/16/25 at 1:45 P.M. with Director of Nursing (DON) revealed CNA #353
involved in the October transfer was verbally educated on ensuring wheelchair brakes were locked prior to
transfer. The DON stated there was no documentation of written education or retraining for the aide
following either incident. An interview conducted on 10/16/25 at 2:12 P.M. with the Administrator confirmed
that the facility's investigation determined the resident sustained a rib fracture during a transfer. The
Administrator stated the facility was unable to identify the staff member who performed the transfer in July.
An interview conducted on 10/16/25 at 3:15 P.M. with the DON revealed that when discussing the July
X-ray findings with the physician, the physician was informed of a prior report of rib pain related to an
incident before admission in which the resident's spouse reportedly squeezed her ribs. The DON stated the
physician advised that the July fracture might be related to that incident. A follow-up interview conducted on
10/16/25 at 3:20 P.M. with Nurse Practitioner (NP) #701 revealed she was unaware of the July or October
incident and had not reviewed the findings of the physician's assessment, but her name was on the X-ray
orders as the ordered provider for both the July and October X-Rays. An interview was conducted on
10/16/25 at 3:30 P.M. with Radiologist #700 from MobileX. Radiologist #700 stated Resident #7's left tenth
rib fracture was definitely a new injury. Radiologist #700 explained that, when determining the acuity of a
fracture, he looks for specific radiologic indicators such as visible lines or fluffy areas, which suggest
whether a fracture is healing or has already healed. Radiologist #700 reported he observed some early
signs of healing on the July X-ray but clarified that it remained consistent with an acute fracture rather than
an old or chronic one. Radiologist #700 further explained that if the fracture had been older, the X-ray would
show greater density or whitening in the area from callus formation, and in some cases, older fractures may
even show edges that rub against one another as they heal. He stated that comparison of the 07/11/25
X-ray with previous images from May 2025 confirmed the July fracture was not healed and appeared acute.
Radiologist #700 emphasized that, based on his comparison, the July X-ray did not demonstrate the
characteristics of an older fracture and confirmed that the injury was definitely not older than eight weeks.
In his medical opinion, the findings were consistent with a new injury that had occurred ranging from the
day of the transfer to within a few weeks prior to the 07/11/25 X-ray. Review of the facility policy titled
Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Supporting dated 2001 revealed

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, review of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
guidance, and facility policy review, the facility failed to implement enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) as
physician ordered during wound care for Resident #67. This affected one (#67) of three residents reviewed
for wounds. The facility identified 13 residents who had EBP in place. The facility census was 91. Findings
include:Review of Resident #67's medical record revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Diagnoses included congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, and morbid obesity.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE], revealed Resident #67 had
impaired cognition and required assistance from staff with transfers, bed mobility, and bathing.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of Resident #67's care plan dated 05/07/24 revealed a care plan focus of EBP. Resident #67
required EBP during high-contact resident care activities due to the presence of wounds. Interventions
included to utilize personal protective equipment (PPE) (gown and gloves, face-shield as indicated) during
high contact resident care activities (e.g. Brief changes, toileting assistance, device care and wound care).
Review of Resident #67's physicians orders dated 10/01/25 revealed orders to assist for EBP during high
contact resident care every shift and a wound care treatment order to the sacrum/right buttocks every shift.
Observation of wound care on 10/16/25 at 9:45 A.M. revealed Nurse #494 and Wound Nurse #474 provided
wound care to Resident #67's sacrum/right buttocks and they did not wear gowns during the wound care.
Interview on 10/16/25 at 10:05 A.M. with Wound Nurse #474 confirmed Resident #67 was on EBP for the
wounds and confirmed Nurse #494 and Wound Nurse #474 did not wear a gown during wound care.
Wound Nurse #474 confirmed a gown should have been worn by the nurse during wound care.
Review of the facility's EBP policy dated March 2024 revealed EBP involves the use of gowns and gloves
during high-contact resident care activities, in addition to standard precaution and staff should don
appropriate PPE before engaging in high-contact resident care activities.
Review of the CDC guidance titled Implementation of PPE Use in Nursing Homes to Prevent Spread of
Multidrug-resistant Organisms (MDROs) found at
https://www.cdc.gov/long-term-care-facilities/hcp/prevent-mdro/PPE.html and dated 04/02/24 revealed
MDRO transmission is common in skilled nursing facilities, contributing to substantial resident morbidity and
mortality and increased healthcare costs. EBP is an infection control intervention designed to reduce
transmission of resistant organisms that employs targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident
care activities. EBP may be indicated for residents with any of the following: wounds or indwelling medical
devices, regardless of MDRO colonization status.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00166290 (1373764).
