F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Interview on 06/24/24 at 4:20 P.M. of the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed LPN #497 no longer worked at the facility and could not be contacted to ask why Resident #156's blood pressure and heart rate were not checked for orthostatic hypotension. The DON stated on 04/26/24, Resident #156's blood pressure and heart rate were not checked for orthostatic hypotension, and she did not know why. The DON confirmed Resident #156's fall investigation did not include a witness statement from the aide, and it should have been included. The DON confirmed the fall investigation stated there was no noted drop in Resident #156's blood pressure from lying to standing and she did not know how that could be documented because there was no documentation Resident #156's blood pressure was taken while lying and standing. The DON confirmed the nurse who initiated the fall investigation used the post fall investigation instead of the fall investigation and it was completed by three different nurses and only one nurse (LPN #433) should have completed the form. The DON confirmed neurological checks were not completed after Resident #156's fall and they should have been initiated because the fall was unwitnessed. The DON confirmed UM #386 checked the box on the fall investigation form for neurological checks as not applicable, but that was incorrect. The DON stated interventions and notifications should have been done. Review of the facility policy titled Fall Prevention and Management, dated 05/25/21, included if the resident was identified to be at risk for falls, a care plan should be initiated that included a plan to potentially diminish the risk for falls. The care plan should include interventions that address environmental factors, activities of daily living (ADL) factors, risk factors that result from dementia and other mental diagnosis, medical diagnosis that put the resident at higher risk. Issues such as toileting, eating, transferring, and impulsiveness should be considered. The care plan can address furniture arrangements, footwear, medications that can cause dizziness, drowsiness, and instability. If the resident hit their head or it was an unwitnessed fall begin neuro checks per the neuro checks policy. Identify if there were any witnesses to the fall. Ask the witnesses what they saw and have them write a statement if possible. Complete the Post Fall Assessment and complete a Fall Follow Up UDA every shift for 72 hours. This deficient practice represents non-compliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00154408.
