**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy, investigation documents, and clinical records, and staff interviews, it was
determined that the facility failed to maintain a safe environment regarding mechanical lift sling sizing for
one of three residents that utilize a mechanical lift reviewed (Resident R46), that resulted in actual harm
and required staple repair for a head laceration.
Findings include:
The facility's policy Safe Resident Handling/Transfers, dated 1/14/25, indicated that residents are to be
transferred safely to prevent or minimize risks for injury. The policy further indicated that the facility will
ensure that there are appropriate amounts of varying sizes of slings to accommodate residents and that
residents will be measured correctly as per manufacturer's instructions on proper sling sizing.
Review of Resident R46's clinical record revealed an admission date of 10/08/20, with diagnoses that
included respiratory failure, heart failure, anxiety (a condition that causes a person to be nervous, uneasy,
or worried about something or someone), and diabetes mellitus (high blood sugars).
Review of Resident R46's Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS - an assessment tool used to facilitate the
management of care for residents) assessment dated [DATE], revealed under section GG 0170 E, that
Resident R46 was dependent on staff for transfer from chair to bed. The Quarterly MDS also revealed that
Resident R46 was cognitively intact.
Review of Resident R46's active physician's orders revealed an order for transfers by use of maxi lift (type
of mechanical lift).
Review of Resident R46's Care Plans under Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) revealed resident transfers
with the maxi lift.
Review of information submitted by facility dated 2/22/25, and interview with the Director of Nursing
revealed Resident R46 was incorrectly transferred with a Hoyer lift (type of maxi lift) and sling that was too
large. Resident R46 was transferred to the hospital related to a head laceration.
Review of the facility's investigation revealed that Nurse Aide (NA) Employees E10 and E11 utilized a blue
extra-large sling on 2/21/25, when they transferred Resident R46 and the resident fell through the sling.

Hospital documentation dated 2/21/25, revealed that Resident R46 slipped out of the Hoyer lift and fell and
sustained a hematoma (bruise) and laceration to the back of the head with two staples to repair the
laceration.
During an interview on 2/25/25, at 9:00 a.m. Resident R46 revealed that staff had used a blue sling
(extra-large) and not the normal medium size.
During interviews on 2/24/25, at approximately 1:55 p.m. NA Employees E6, E7, and E9 all indicated that
there was no process or documentation in the resident's clinical record to indicate what sling size to use
when utilizing the Hoyer lift.
During an interview on 2/25/25, at 10:45 a.m. the Director of Nursing confirmed that NA Employees E10
and E11 transferred Resident R46 by Hoyer lift using a blue sling that was too big and Resident R46 fell
through the sling that resulted in harm of a head laceration. The DON also confirmed that there was not a
process in place to ensure appropriate sling size determination.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
Based on review of facility policy and clinical records, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility
failed to provide a clinical rationale and duration for the continued use of a PRN (as needed) psychotropic
(affecting the mind) medication beyond 14-days for one of five residents reviewed for psychotropic
medications (Resident R17).
Findings include:
Review of facility policy entitled Use of Psychotropic Medications dated 1/14/25, indicated PRN orders for
psychotropic medications . shall be limited to no more than 14 days . The medical record should include
documentation from the physician or prescriber for the rational for the extended time period and indicate a
specific duration.
Review of Resident R17's clinical record revealed an admission date of 9/29/23, with diagnoses that
included diabetes (a health condition that caused by the body's inability to produce enough insulin), heart
failure (a condition where the heart cannot supply the body with enough blood), and chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (when your lungs do not have adequate air flow).
Review of Resident R17's medication orders revealed a physician's order dated 1/15/25, to administer
Lunesta (a sleeping pill) 1 milligrams (mg) by mouth as needed at bedtime. Further review of medication
orders revealed a physician's order dated 2/10/25, to increase Lunesta to 2 mg by mouth as needed at
bedtime. The medication orders lacked the required stop date within 14 days or a clinical rational for
continuing beyond 14 days.
During an interview on 2/26/25, at 9:30 a.m. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Employee E8 confirmed that
Resident R17's Lunesta orders lacked the required stop date within 14 days and a clinical rationale for
continued use beyond 14 days. He/she also confirmed that the medication should have a clinical rational
and duration to continue beyond 14 days.
