FOLLOWING DEFICIENCY REPRESENTS AN INCIDENT OF PAST NON-COMPLIANCE THAT WAS
SUBSEQUENTLY CORRECTED PRIOR TO THIS SURVEY.Based on observation, medical record review,
review of witness statements, review of mechanical lift manual, interview, and review of facility plan of
correction documentation, the facility failed to ensure mechanical lift equipment was maintained in a safe
and working condition to prevent an avoidable fall for Resident #23. This affected one (Resident #23) of
three residents reviewed for falls. The facility census was 64.Findings include:Review of the medical record
for Resident #23 revealed an admission date of 04/25/16 with diagnoses which included schizoaffective
disorder bipolar type, metabolic encephalopathy, obesity, pseudobulbar affect, altered mental status,
generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, and chronic pain syndrome.Review of the activities
of daily living (ADL) care plan revised on 02/02/21 revealed Resident #23 had an ADL self-care
performance deficit related to anxiety, behaviors, congestive heart failure, generalized weakness, history of
falls, impaired vision, obesity, pain, poor balance, psychoactive drug use and hypothyroidism with
interventions including that the resident was dependent on chair-to-bed or bed-to-chair transfers and
mechanical lift for transfers with two-person assistance.Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0
quarterly assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #23 was cognitively intact, used a wheelchair for
mobility, was totally dependent on staff for toileting, bathing, personal hygiene, and transferring.Review of
the late entry nurse note dated 12/05/25 timed 11:50 A.M. created on 12/06/25 timed 2:50 A.M. authored by
Registered Nurse (RN) #72 revealed the aide informed the nurse that during the process of hoisting a
resident, the Hoyer (mechanical lift) pad broke, and the resident fell on his buttocks. They grabbed another
Hoyer pad and continued. The hydraulics failed with the Hoyer machine; this time, the resident fell and
sustained a small injury on the forehead, close to the bridge of the nose, and on the left hand. The resident
said the Hoyer pad broke, and he fell. The second time, he was unable to explain what happened, but he
said I fell down from the Hoyer again, claimed he hit his forehead, right knee and left hand hurt. Vital signs
checked immediately: 139/101 blood pressure, 90 pulse, 20 respirations and 97.8 temperature. Range of
motion completed. The resident complained of pain in the right knee and forehead. Physical assessment

#23's representative returned the call for notification of the resident's fall on 12/05/25. No concerns were
voiced at this time.Review of the fall care plan revised on 12/06/25 revealed Resident #23 was at risk for
falls related to behaviors: hoarding items in room, history of falls, medications, obesity, poor balances,
psychoactive drug use with interventions which included: implement preventative fall interventions/devices
and inspect Hoyer pad prior to use/transfer.Review of Resident #23's witness statement obtained via
telephone by the Administrator dated 12/06/25 revealed Resident #23 was picked up from his chair to be
put in bed and the strap broke. The resident's back hit the side of the bed and then buttock on the floor. The
second time Resident #23 was lifted, the resident thought the strap broke again. Resident #23 did not see
the staff switch the lift, but the staff did nothing different than any other time they assisted the resident.
There were two aides (Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #72 and CNA #73) and the nurse came in after
the first fall.Review of CNA #72's witness statement obtained via telephone by the Administrator dated
12/06/25 revealed CNA #72 was in the room with CNA #73 to lift Resident #23 into bed. CNA #73 removed
the chair from the area and CNA #72 moved the lift in front of Resident #23's chair. The lift was in the
proper position with the legs open and the sling loops on green and purple. As the staff were lifting him, the
strap broke on the sling and Resident #23 fell. His back hit the edge of the bed and then his bottom landed
on the floor. The nurse, RN #74, came in to assess the resident following the fall. At this time, CNA #72
obtained another pad to lift the resident. The staff were lifting the resident and the piston on the Hoyer gave
out. The resident started to quickly drop to the floor again. The resident was not swaying or tipping and was
equally balanced on both attempts. The resident had an injury on his forehead, nose and knee following the
second fall. The staff were able to get him up on a third attempt using a different lift.Review of CNA #73's
witness statement obtained via telephone by the Administrator dated 12/06/25 revealed CNA #73 was in
the room with CNA #72 assisting Resident #23 to bed from his chair. CNA #73 was controlling the lift and
CNA #72 was in the back. The first time the staff tried to lift him, the strap broke and was still attached to
hooks of the lift. The aides got a second sling while the nurse was in the room with the resident. The aides
tried to get the resident up from the floor and had to roll him to either side to get the new pad under him.
The aides got the lift all the way down to pick him a second time. The resident was almost the same level as
the bed and then the lift started to shake then the resident went down to the floor quickly. The aides called
the nurse again to the room. The nurse checked the resident and the resident complained of pain in his left
knee. The aides brought in a second lift, lowered the bed to the lowest position and assisted him to bed.
Each time we attempted to lift the resident the legs were open and he was balanced. At no time did the
resident sway, rock or tip while in lift.Observation on 12/22/25 at 8:40 A.M. revealed Resident #23 was lying
in bed on his side then rolled to his back. Interview, during the observation, with Resident #23 revealed he
had fallen twice during a mechanical lift
