F 0684 review revealed no documented evidence as to why the CNA did not notify the nurse immediately or when the family/responsible party was notified. Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Review of the Vitals and Pain Only Evaluation dated 05/06/25 at 12:52 P.M., revealed Resident #72 complained of intermittent, aching, moderate pain rated five out of 10, the resident had exhibited protective body movements/posture vocal complaints of pain. Non-medicated interventions included change in position and PRN medication administered. Review of the electronic Medication Administration Record (MAR) dated May 2025 revealed Resident #72 received Tramadol (pain medication) 50 milligrams for pain rated a six out of 10 (1-10 pain scale). Review of Resident #72's hospital documentation dated 05/06/25 revealed the resident was undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy for the last nine days with back pain associated with his treatment. Today he slipped in front of the toilet, sliding down and hitting his back. The resident reported his back pain was worse than baseline at that time. Review of the computed tomography (CT) results including thoracic spine revealed new changes involving superior endplate of T12 and T11 as well as inferior endplate of T 10 with background of substantial osteopenia. Findings were compatible with acute/subacute mild compression fracture of T12 and more mild-to-moderate acute/subacute compression fracture of the superior endplate of T11 and inferior endplate of T10. There may be some progression of bony metastasis with some ill-defined lucencies seen along the inferior endplate of T10 and superior endplate of T 11 which was questioned as well although findings may all just be posttraumatic with bony fragmentation. Recommendations included to wear back brace due to several fractures of the back and follow up with physician within a week. Review of CNA #34's incident statement dated 05/06/25 revealed during the transfer from Resident #72's chair to the toilet, his knees 'lost strength' bending very fast and hard hitting the wall.

The statement included RN #46 spoke with CNA #34 and reminded her that all incidents were to be reported when they happen. On 05/14/25 at 11:50 A.M., interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified the above incident was a fall and should have been reported immediately. The DON verified CNA #34 did not immediately report the resident's fall, she moved the resident without the nurse assessing him first and it wasn't until approximately 1:30 P.M. per Registered Nurse (RN) #46's statement that LPN #44 was notified of the incident. Once CNA #34 went to LPN #44 and told her what had happened earlier in her shift, the nurse assessed the resident and the resident was transferred to the hospital for evaluation (at approximately 2:30 P.M. on 05/06/25). The DON verified the investigation had contradictions in the time frames and statements. The DON verified she did not have the investigation completed, was educating staff and obtaining statements as of today during the survey in regards to Resident #72's fall. On 05/14/25 at 1:37 P.M., interview with CNA #34 revealed on 05/06/25 just after breakfast around 9:00 A.M. she was assisting Resident #72 to the bathroom.

The facility would notify the physician and resident family member as soon as practicable. In the event of a head injury or suspected fracture, the physician and family member will be notified immediately.
