Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to follow its policy and procedure on Fall Management and
Neurological (deals with problems affecting the nervous system [includes the brain, spinal cord, and a
complex network of nerves]) Evaluation by failing to ensure a neurological assessment was completed after
an unwitnessed fall on 8/17/2024 for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1).
This deficient practice had the potential to result in a delay of care and placed the resident at risk of not
receiving appropriate care due to incomplete resident medical care information that may lead to additional
falls or complications.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 8/10/2024
and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included sepsis (a serious condition in which the body
responds improperly to an infection), autonomic neuropathy (occurs when there is damage to the nerves
that control automatic body functions), muscle weakness, and repeated falls.
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - standardized assessment and care planning
tool) dated 8/16/2024, indicated Resident 1's cognition (the mental action or process of acquiring
knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) was intact. The MDS indicated
Resident 1 required substantial or maximal (helper does more than half the effort) assistance with oral
hygiene, toileting hygiene, shower/bathing, and dressing.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 11:14 a.m., with the MDS Nurse (MDSN),
the MDSN reviewed Resident 1's Change in Condition (COC- sudden deviation from a resident's baseline
in physical, cognitive, behavioral, or functional domains) form dated 8/17/2024, timed at 6:33 p.m. The
MDSN stated that on 8/17/2024, Resident 1 had an unwitnessed fall. The MDSN stated that after an
unwitnessed fall, licensed nurses should complete a neurological assessment to monitor the resident's level
of consciousness and monitor for any changes in condition. The MDSN further stated that if there are any
changes noted, licensed nurses are to inform the resident's physician. The MDSN stated that a physician's
order is not needed for a neurological assessment as it is part of nursing intervention and licensed nurse's
documentation of monitoring a resident post fall.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 11:17 a.m., with the MDSN, Resident 1's
Transfer Form dated 8/17/2024 at 10:17 p.m. was reviewed. The MDSN stated that Resident 1 was
transferred to the hospital on 8/17/2024 at 9:20 p.m. for evaluation due to the fall.

During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 11:18 a.m., with the MDSN, the MDSN
reviewed Resident 1's Progress Notes dated 8/18/2024 at 4:52 a.m. and stated that Resident 1 returned to
the facility.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 12:30 p.m., with the Medical Records
Director (MRD), Resident 1's Neurological Flow Sheet dated 8/17/2024 to 8/20/2024 was reviewed. The
MRD stated that Resident 1's Neurological Flow Sheet was not completed.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 1:04 p.m., with the Director of Nursing
(DON), the DON reviewed Resident 1's Neurological Flow Sheet dated 8/17/2024 to 8/20/2024. The DON
stated that Resident 1's Neurological Flow Sheet dated 8/17/2024 to 8/20/2024 was not completed and was
not resumed after Resident 1's return to the facility from the hospital on 8/18/2024 at 4:52 a.m. because
there was no order to resume the neurological assessment. The DON stated that the hospital should have
given the facility orders to resume the neurological assessment. The DON further stated that it is the
protocol of the facility that after an unwitnessed fall a neurological assessment should be done 72 hours
post fall but because there is no physician's order after Resident 1 came back from the hospital the facility
did not have to continue Resident 1's neurological assessment. The DON stated that a neurological
assessment is a nursing intervention. When asked if nursing interventions need a physician's order, the
DON stated no, and continued to state that nursing interventions do not need a physician's order. When
asked what the facility should have done, the DON stated that the facility staff did not do anything wrong.
A review of Resident 1's Neurological Flow Sheet dated 8/17/2024 to 8/20/2024, indicated that the licensed
nurse will complete the Neurological Flow Sheet for any unwitnessed fall, or witnessed fall with suspected
or known head injury for sixty-six (66) hours following the fall. The attending physician will be informed if
there is a deviation from the resident's normal status for further instruction. The document further indicated:
Vital Signs (measurements of the body's most basic functions) and Neuro Check (also known as neuro
evaluation - a series of questions and tests to check brain, spinal cord, and nerve function): every (q)15
minutes for one (1) hour; q 30 minutes for one hour; q one hour for four hours, then q four hours for 66
hours.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Fall Management, last reviewed 7/2024, indicated that
the purpose is to address injury and provide care for a fall. Patients experiencing a fall will receive
appropriate care. If patient falls, observe, or check for injury; perform Neurological Evaluation for all
unwitnessed falls and witnessed falls with injury to the head or face.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Neurological Evaluation, last reviewed 7/2024, indicated
neurological evaluation will be performed as indicated or as ordered. When a resident sustains an injury to
the head or face and/or has an unwitnessed fall, neurological evaluation will be performed: every 15
minutes for two hours, then every 30 minutes for two hours, then every 60 minutes for four hours, then
every eight (8) hours until at least 72 hours.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Nursing Documentation, last reviewed 7/2024, indicated
to communicate patient's status and provide complete, comprehensive, and accessible accounting of care
and monitoring provided. Documentation includes information about the patient's status, nursing
assessment and interventions, expected outcomes, evaluation of the patient's outcomes, and responses to
nursing care.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/9/2024 at 11:51 a.m., with LVN 1, LVN 1 reviewed
Resident 1's Health Status Note dated 8/18/2024, timed at 1:32 p.m. LVN 1 stated that on 8/18/2024 at
11:00 a.m., Resident 1 complained of pain despite administering Resident 1's pain medications as ordered.
LVN 1 stated that he called Resident 1's physician to request for additional pain medication. LVN 1 stated
that he was not able to contact Resident 1's physician because the facility has to go through a phone
service, and the phone service was having technical difficulties. LVN 1 stated that he was unable to contact
the doctor personally to get an additional order of pain medicine. When asked what LVN 1 did after, LVN 1
stated that he had endorsed it to the next shift (3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. shift). LVN 1 continued to state that
he was visually monitoring Resident 1 during the time he (LVN 1) was waiting for the physician to call back,
and Resident 1 was asleep. When asked what LVN 1 should have done, LVN 1 stated that he should have
called the medical director to ask for an order for pain medication and should not have just endorsed to the
following shift.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 9/9/2024 at 1:56 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that LVN 1
should have informed the DON, and the DON would have called the facility's medical director to inform him
