Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Based on review of facility policies, job descriptions, staff education records, clinical records, and
investigation reports, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that
residents were free from neglect while being transported to dialysis for one of 12 residents reviewed
(Resident 1), resulting in harm to Resident 1 due to a fall that resulted in a fracture.
Findings include:
The facility's policy regarding abuse and neglect, dated November 24, 2024, indicated that the resident had
the right to be free from verbal, sexual, physical, and mental abuse, corporal punishment, involuntary
seclusion, neglect, and misappropriation of property. Neglect was defined as the failure to provide goods
and services necessary to avoid physical harm, mental anguish, or mental illness. Neglect referred to
failure through inattentiveness, carelessness, or omission to provide timely, consistent, safety adequate,
and appropriate services, treatment of care, including but not limited to: nutrition, medications, therapies,
and activities of daily living.
The facility's transportation policy, dated November 24, 2024, revealed that all employees who operate a
vehicle would receive, upon hire, training in bus/van policies, procedures, and operations. Additionally
training was to be provided on a regular basis. Both staff and clients were to wear a seatbelt at all times
when the vehicle was in operation and clients in wheelchairs were to be secured with the use of wheelchair
locks, as well as either a lap belt or shoulder safety belt.
The job description for the transportation driver, undated, revealed that the driver was to perform all
assigned tasks in accordance with established policies and procedures, and as instructed by their
supervisor, and was to ensure a safe environment.
Education records for Van Driver 3, dated October 4, 2024, revealed that he received training on the
transportation policy and procedures.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and
care needs) for Resident 1, dated November 29, 2024, revealed that the resident was cognitively intact, had
limited range of motion to her upper and lower extremities, used a wheelchair, received dialysis services,
and had diagnoses that included renal failure. The resident's care plan, dated November 26, 2024, revealed
that she required dialysis on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
A nursing note, dated December 24, 2024, at 9:20 a.m. revealed that Resident 1's wheelchair tipped over
backwards while in the facility's van. On assessment by the Director of Nursing and the Registered Nurse
Supervisor, Resident 1 was already returned to the upright position and being secured to the van. Resident
1 stated that her chest hurt and that her knees hit her in the chest when she tipped over backwards. She
refused any further assessment and requested to go ahead to dialysis. At 11:31 a.m., dialysis sent the
resident to the local hospital for further evaluation and treatment.
Hospital records, dated December 24, 2024, revealed that Resident 1 reported that she was on her way to
dialysis via a wheelchair van and when they attempted to start moving, her wheelchair was not locked into
place, and she was ejected from her wheelchair. Her knees subsequently struck her chest, specifically her
sternal (bone located in center of the chest) area. She admitted to a marked amount

of sternal pain since then. A CT scan (diagnostic test) report revealed that the resident had an age
indeterminate, possibly chronic, sternal fracture deformity. This was to be correlated clinically at the point of
tenderness in this location. Hospital records revealed that the resident was made aware of the concerning
CT scan findings for a sternal fracture, and she was agreeable to transfer. Given the traumatic findings
found on the scan as well as the need for emergent dialysis, she required a transfer.
Resident 1 was transferred as a Level 2 trauma (a patient with a traumatic injury that is considered
potentially life-threatening, meaning they have significant injuries but are currently stable with vital signs
within normal ranges, requiring immediate specialized care at a Level 2 trauma center) to a hospital in
Pittsburgh. A review of hospital records from Pittsburgh, dated December 24, 2024, through January 2,
2025, revealed that Resident 1 was admitted to ICU for acute respiratory insufficiency requiring significant
respiratory support, treatment for a sternal fracture, and dialysis.
Information submitted by the facility, dated December 24, 2024, revealed that Resident 1 was being
transported to her dialysis appointment in the facility van and when the van was pulling out of the driveway,
which had a slight upward grade, Resident 1's wheelchair tipped backwards causing the resident to hit her
head. She reported that her chest hurt from her knees coming up and hitting her chest. Resident 1 stated
that she was okay and was transported to dialysis. The facility received a call from dialysis that they were
sending Resident 1 to the hospital for evaluation and treatment and that the resident sustained a sternal
fracture.
The facility's investigation, dated December 24, 2024, revealed that the straps to hold Resident 1's
wheelchair in place in the van were not secured properly.
A statement from Nurse Aide 2, dated December 24, 2024, revealed that when the transport van went to
pull out of the parking lot she heard a loud noise, and when she looked back she saw that Resident 1's
wheelchair tipped backwards. The resident stated that her chest hurt from her knees hitting her chest.
A statement from Van Driver 3, dated December 24, 2024, revealed that when he was hooking up Resident
1's wheelchair to the back chair locks, he got distracted when someone asked about hooking up their seat
belt, and he did not lock the front of Resident 1's wheelchair to the chair holders.
An interview with the Director of Nursing on December 30, 2024, at 12:29 p.m. confirmed that Van Driver 3
did not lock Resident 1's wheelchair properly, which resulted in her falling backwards.

Based on review of facility policies, clinical records, and facility investigation documents, as well as staff
