**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interview and policy review, the facility failed to update care plan interventions
following a resident fall. This affected two (#9 and #79) of two residents reviewed for accidents. Facility
census was 31.
Findings include
1. Review of medical record revealed Resident #79 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included vertebral fracture of thoracic vertebrae 11 and 12, brain cancer, hypertension, and history of
falling.
Review of the comprehensive assessment dated revealed 10/02/19 revealed the resident had moderate
cognitive impairment. Resident #79 required partial to moderate assistance for sit to stand, toilet transfers,
and bed to chair transfers. Review of the comprehensive assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #79
had a history of falls prior to admission, one of which resulted in a fracture. The resident had fallen since
admission and received an injury (not a major injury).
Review of progress notes revealed on 09/23/19 Resident #79 was washing his/her hands in the bathroom,
reached to get a paper towel while holding onto the walker and lost balance, falling straight back and hitting
his/her head on the wall. The state tested nurses assistant (STNA) was in the bathroom with the resident.
The nurse, physician and family were notified. Resident #79 was transported to the emergency room (ER)
for evaluation.
Review of the fall investigation dated 09/23/19 revealed a hematoma was noted to the back of the resident's
head. Resident #79 reported a pain level of six and was alert and oriented to person, place, time, and
situation. The interdepartmental team (IDT) investigated the fall and identified the STNA was present with
the resident in the bathroom but did not have hands on the resident as the resident was washing hands.
Staff was reminded to have hands on the resident while ambulating, transferring, and during care.
Review of Resident #79's care plan revealed the resident had a self-care performance deficit and required
limited assistance of one staff member for toileting. Resident #79's care plan also included a risk area for
falls with the following interventions:
- Anticipate and meet the resident's needs
- Ensure the resident's call light was within reach and encourage the resident to use the call light for
assistance as needed. The resident needed prompt response to all requests for assistance
- Educate the resident/family/caregivers about safety reminders and what to do if a fall occurred
- Encourage the resident to participate in activities that promoted exercise, physical activity for
strengthening and improved mobility
- Ensure the resident was choosing and wearing appropriate footwear when ambulating or mobilizing in the
wheelchair

The care plan did not include the new fall intervention identified by the IDT to have hands on the resident

revealed Resident #9 fell out of her wheelchair on 08/07/19.
Review of the fall investigation for the Resident #9's fall which occurred on 08/07/19 revealed the
intervention taken to prevent the incident from reoccurring was to ensure Resident #9's wheelchair brakes
were locked prior to transferring transferring the resident into it as well as to ensure the resident had proper
and safe positioning when in her wheelchair.
Review of the comprehensive care plan for Resident #9 revealed Resident #9 was at risk for falls. Further
review of the comprehensive care plan for Resident #9 revealed the interventions to ensure Resident #9's
wheelchair brakes were locked prior to transferring transferring the resident into it and to ensure the
resident had proper and safe positioning when in her wheelchair were not included on the comprehensive
care plan.
Interview with Director of Nursing on 10/17/19 at 10:55 A.M. verified Resident #9's comprehensive care
plan was not revised to include the above fall interventions.
Review of the facility's undated policy titled Policy & Procedure for Falls revealed the plan of care will be
