side of the room. NA reports that she was providing incontinence care to the resident and she became
weak and had to be lowered to the floor out of the lift. Staff assessed resident and no visible injury noted.
Resident has no new pain. She was assisted off of the floor with the hoyer lift and 3 assist and into bed.
Review of a witness statement dated 4/28/24, completed by RN Employee E11 stated, I worked on
Saturday 4/27/24 and I was in the team room doing some documentation and I heard a loud noise on the
household. The NA was also in the team room and she went to see where the noise came from. The NA
called for me and when I entered Resident R1's room, I observed resident laying on the floor of her room.
Resident R1's legs were still strapped into the Sara lift and her upper body was unstrapped from the lift and
her head was resting against the mattress. Assessed the resident for injury then this writer, two NAs, and
the Clinical Coordinator used the hoyer lift to get Resident R1 off of the floor and into bed safely.

myself, RN Employee E11 and another NA were in the team room when we heard a loud noise. I went to
see what it was and the other aide was coming out of room [ROOM NUMBER] (Resident R1's room). I
walked into her room and witnessed Resident R1 laying in between the recliner and bed, her head resting
on the mattress and her legs still strapped into Sara lift. None of us were asked to help aide with transfer. In
the morning I did give her (NA Employee E10) a detailed report on resident's routine and transfers and RN
Employee E11 also told her that rooms [ROOM NUMBER] were assist of two with the lift.
Review of a telephonic interview conducted by the Director of Nursing 2 (DON) dated 4/29/24, indicated NA
Employee E10 stated, I came on the unit that day. I got a verbal report from the floor nurse and nurse aide
staff on floor for each resident I had for the day. They did go over each resident I had, they told me Resident
R1 was a Sara lift. Never said a two person Sara lift. After lunch I went to go lay resident down for a nap. I
had her in the lift and was going to change her brief, and then put her in bed and take her pants off. That's
when I noticed diarrhea coming from under her brief. So I stopped, tried to put another brief on, she started
to slide down, so I tried to hold her up and yelled for help. I used my body to lower her to floor. Then staff
came in room to help me.
During an interview on 5/21/24, at 9:29 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) stated that the facility
was providing whole-house re-education regarding proper transfer assistance and lift
