family member also stated in the video after CNA dropped Resident #1 leg and began toward the door the
CNA stated to Resident #1 you are crazy. He also stated the facility did not do anything for Resident #1
except give her pain medication she was already receiving. He stated he did not believe this medication
helped Resident #1 due to Resident #1 continued to be in pain. He also stated Resident #1 was neglected
and she needed to be in the hospital for x-rays immediately when Resident #1 began to yell she was in pain
and her leg was broken. He stated she would rub on her left leg and by her expression from the video
footage he noticed she was in pain. He stated he did not view the videos until 09/19/2023 after family
received a phone call Resident #1 was going to be transferred to the hospital. He stated if he had seen the
videos from Resident #1's room on 09/18/2023 he would have drove two hours to ensure she was getting
the treatment she needed and was sent to the hospital immediately. He stated that was a new pain for
Resident #1 and she had not been complaining about her knee. He also stated it was a new symptom for
her knee to swell.

Resident #1. She stated she could not sit by and watch Resident #1 be in pain for an hour or more and the
nurse refused to go to Resident #1's room due to believing Resident #1 was complaining for no reason.
She stated it was difficult to even talk to LVN A due to her expressing no compassion towards Resident #1
and not wanting to assess her to determine if anything was wrong with Resident #1. She also stated she
called the Administrator on 09/18/2023 ( did not recall the time). She stated she informed the Administrator
of Resident #1's pain and swelling in the left knee. She stated the Administrator advised her to speak with

#1 always was and there was not anything wrong with Resident #1. She stated around 8:30 PM LVN A
entered Resident #1's room and stated Resident #1's left knee does not look any different than it has in the
past. The COTA/Marketing Coordinator stated that LVN A informed her and PTA C to go home, she had this
and promised to take care of Resident # 1. She stated LVN A did not assess Resident #1. The
COTA/Marketing Coordinator stated when she came on duty on 09/19/2023 the ambulance was in front of
the facility transferring Resident #1 to the hospital. She stated she was shocked and could not believe LVN
A allowed Resident #1 to remain in the facility that night without getting an x-ray or doing anything to ensure
Resident #1 did not have any broken bones. The COTA/Marketing Coordinator stated she did believe LVN A
was neglecting Resident #1. She stated LVN A refused to go to Resident #1's room and complete an
assessment approximately 2 hours after being informed of Resident #1's left knee/ leg pain and Resident
#1 stating she thought her leg was broken. She stated she was upset, and the nurse ignored her whenever
she reported anything about Resident #1. She stated LVN A neglected Resident #1 on 09/18/2023.
In an interview on 09/20/2023 at 3:41 PM LVN D stated Resident #1 yelled out frequently. She stated when
she was yelling, she was in pain. LVN D stated resident complains about her back hurting. She stated
everyone knew Resident #1 yelled frequently when she was in pain. She stated there were times when she
was speaking to Resident #1, and she was complaining/ yelling with pain, and she would administer her
ordered pain medication without asking Resident #1 where she was hurting or her pain level. She stated
she has not ever completed a pain assessment on Resident #1 but now she realized she was required to
complete pain assessment and document in nurses notes about Resident #1's pain. She also stated the
nurses was expected to ask where the pain was located and the pain level on a scale of zero-ten. She
stated zero - no pain and ten- extreme pain. She stated due to Resident #1 complaining about pain all the
time the nurses would give her the pain medication if it was scheduled and not ask her any questions. She
stated if she had been working on the night of 09/18/2023 and Resident #1 was complaining about pain in
her knee she would have given her pain medication and probably would not have asked any questions or
completed any type of incident reports or pain assessments due to this was how Resident #1 she was
always complained about pain. She stated this was her normal behavior. LVN D stated resident did not have
any behavior problems. She stated she would yell but only when she was in pain. She stated Resident #1
was cooperative with staff and did not have any behavior issues. LVN D stated she has given care to
Resident #1 numerous times. She stated it varied from week to week, but she was very familiar with
Resident #1 physical condition, moods, and behaviors. She also stated when Resident #1 was in pain she
did not assess the resident to determine if it was a new pain or pain from her back. She stated everyone in
the facility was aware if Resident #1 was in pain she will yell, and we don't assess the pain very closely
when giving pain medication. She stated we give her anti -anxiety medication to prevent her from yelling.
She also stated she did not believe any assessment was required when she was yelling about pain in her
knee. She stated she was not working on 09/18/2023 but she would not have completed a pain assessment
on resident. She also stated if a nurse was informed by staff over an hour that Resident #1's knee had
increased in size due to swelling, Resident #1 was yelling in pain and Resident #1 stated she thought she
broke her leg/knee, a nurse was expected to go to that room immediately due to that was a new pain for
Resident #1; and anytime a resident stated they thought their leg/knee was broken that was serious. She
stated if a nurse did not visit Resident #1 immediately after allegedly being informed every 10 minutes of
her change in physical condition, that would be considered neglect. She stated unless there was an
emergency with another resident. She stated a nurse could not ignore when staff was concerned about a
resident's physical condition, and they felt there was a major concern for

preparing to pass out medications and began to pass out meds to residents and there was not an
emergency. LVN A could have stopped what she was doing and came to Resident #1's room to complete
an assessment. She stated if an assessment had been completed and LVN A would have went to Resident

crazy, she stated that was verbal abuse. She stated in the abuse and neglect policy and protocol it was
clear what to do if anything was suspected and she stated they did not follow protocol to investigate what

Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents received treatment and care
in accordance with professional standards of practice for one (Resident #1) of five residents reviewed for
quality of care.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to assess and obtain x-ray when Resident #1 began complaining acute pain and her
knee/leg was broken in her left leg. The facility failed to order x-ray on 09/18/2023.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation was identified and on 09/21/2023 and Immediate Jeopardy template
was presented to the facility on [DATE] at 3:37 PM. While the IJ was removed on 09/23/2023 the facility
remained out of compliance at a severity level of actual harm at a scope of isolation due to staff needing
more time to monitor the plan of removal for effectiveness.
This failure placed residents at risk for potential delay in medical intervention, uncontrolled pain, decline in
health and a decreased quality of life.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 09/22/2023, revealed Resident #1 was an [AGE] year-old
female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the following diagnoses which included low back
pain ( pain between the lower edge of the ribs), signs symptoms of musculoskeletal system ( mild to severe
aches, low back pain, numbness, tingling, atrophy, and weakness), muscle weakness ( a lack of strength in
the muscles), osteoporosis without current pathological fracture (generally caused by a fall from a standing

pain and their knee was swelling, she stated she would immediately go to that resident's room and assess
the resident. She stated she would complete a pain assessment and if resident were in severe pain and
has stated her leg was broken, she would contact the MD immediately and if the MD did not return call
within 5 minutes, she would immediately call 911. She stated if a nurse did not complete an assessment on
the resident or ask the other staff questions of what might have caused the knee to swell, she did not follow
proper protocol. LVN F stated nurse was expected to assess residents whenever there is a change of
condition and a new pain in the knee with it swelling and the resident yelling her leg was broken that is a
change of condition. She stated she did not give care very often to Resident #1, but she did know Resident
#1 would yell when she was only in pain. She stated Resident #1 should not have stayed in the facility all
night if she said her left leg was broken if her left knee was swelling, and she was in extreme pain . She
stated Resident #1 needed to be transferred to the emergency room the night of 09/18/2023. She stated
anytime a resident voices pain to a nurse, or another staff reports a resident was in pain the nurses was to
complete pain assessment. She stated the nurse was required to ask resident where the pain is located
and the pain level using the pain scale of zero - not having any pain and ten- having extreme pain. She
stated a nurse was expected to document this in nurses notes when they administer pain medication and if
a resident is in pain an assessment was required to be completed. She stated LVN A was expected to go
immediately to Resident #1's room to complete an assessment and if Resident #1 was complaining about
extreme pain and stated her leg/ knee was broken, Resident #1 needed to be sent to the emergency room
immediately.

an interview on 09/22/2023 at 10:30 AM, the ADON stated anytime a Resident had pain whether a new
pain or an ongoing pain the nurse was expected to assess the resident and complete a pain scale with the
resident. ADON stated pain scale was when zero - no pain and ten- extreme pain. She stated any time a
resident reported pain the nurse was to complete a pain assessment and document in the nurses notes
where the pain is located and the pain scale. She stated Resident #1 only had one pain assessment
completed and it was completed at the time of the MDS Assessment. She stated Resident #1 did complain
about pain frequently, however, she expected the nurses to complete pain assessments each time the
resident had a pain higher than a zero. She stated the nurses will document pain once a shift on the MAR,
however, that does not indicate the resident did not have any pain that shift. The ADON stated there was a
pain assessment in the electronic medical record and it was expected for the nurses to complete pain
assessment each time a resident complained of being in pain. She stated there was a possibility something
else may be occurring with the residents' physical condition and completing an assessment it will ensure
the nurse will not be missing any other acute physical issues with the resident. She stated if LVN A had
completed a pain assessment on Resident #1 she would have known the extent of the pain and Resident
#1 needed to be transferred to the hospital immediately. She also stated if it was reported to LVN A
Resident #1 was complaining of her leg being broken the nurse was expected to call 911 immediately,
contact the physician and the family. She stated there was a failure in the facility's protocol regarding
Resident #1's care on 09/18/2023.
In an interview on 09/22/2023 at 1:36 PM, attempted to contact LVN A and was unable to leave message.
LVN A was in the facility when Resident #1 was complaining of pain and her left knee hurting
Review of Resident #1's Facility Policy on Pain Management Program dated 01/2023 reflected the facility
will ensure that residents receive the treatment and care in accordance with professional standards of
practice, the comprehensive care plan, and the resident's choices, related to pain management. The facility
will assess everyone for pain upon admission to the facility, at the quarterly review, whenever there is a
significant change in condition, and when there is onset of new pain or worsening of existing pain. The
facility will identify the characteristics of pain such as location, intensity, frequency, pattern , and severity.
The facility will use a consistent approach and a standardized pain assessment instrument appropriate to
the resident's cognitive level. The facility will evaluate how pain is affecting mood, activities of daily living,
sleep, and the resident's quality of life, as well as how pain may be contributing to complications such as
gait disturbances, social isolation, and falls. The interdisciplinary team will make attempts to determine root
cause of the pain and collaborate with physician to conduct necessary diagnostics and evaluation to
identify potential source of pain and determine plan of care.
The Administrator and Director of Nurses was notified on 09/21/2023 at 3:37 PM than an Immediate
Jeopardy had been identified due to the above failure and an IJ template was provided and POR was

on Resident #1's right side. LVN D also stated the staff on the left side of Resident #1 would be observing
her left foot to ensure it didn't drag on the floor or would hang on the wheelchair. LVN D stated it was best
practice if the left foot (one had the foot drop) was not next to the bed when transferring Resident #1 and
her right foot was positioned next to the bed during transfers. She stated if staff transferred Resident #1 this
way the left foot would not get caught between the wheelchair and the bed. There were less of a chance the
left foot would be injured during transfer She stated Resident #1's had a left foot drop and sometimes she
would place the left foot on the floor, however, most of the time she would keep the left foot raised a few
inches off the floor during transfer. She stated if no one was on the left side of Resident #1 it would be very
difficult to monitor the left foot to ensure it didn't drag on floor or get caught on wheelchair. LVN D also
stated this type of transfer was more efficient with Resident #1. She also stated the two staff would have
one hand on the gait belt, and the two staff would transfer Resident #1 together with one staff on her left
side ensured her left foot was not dragging and not touching the floor. She stated the left foot would be
smooth turn with her right foot and it would be in sync at the same time. She stated Resident #1's hips and
feet would go at the same time, and it would be a smooth transfer. She stated the most important
information with Resident #1's transfer was to watch the left foot. LVN D stated Resident #1 always wore
non-skid socks and did not have regular socks in her room. She stated she would have shoes on or her
non-skid socks when out of bed and when she was in bed, she preferred to wear her non-skid socks. LVN D
stated Resident #1 did have weight bearing on her right foot, however, did not have very much if any weight
bearing on her left foot. LVN D stated if someone was behind Resident #1's wheelchair and someone was
in front of Resident #1 it would be difficult for anyone to observe her left foot. She stated someone needed
to be by the left foot to prevent it from dragging or hitting anything. She stated it was best if the left foot (one
had the foot drop) was not next to the bed when transferring Resident #1 and her right foot was positioned
next to the bed during transfers. She stated if staff transferred Resident #1 this way the left foot would not
get caught between the wheelchair and the bed. There were less of a chance the left foot would be injured
during transfer.
In an interview on 10/15/2023 at 11:00 AM, CNA M stated she had transferred Resident #1 in the past. She
stated she began working at the facility 07/12/2023. She stated she had been assigned to Resident #1 or
have assisted other staff in transferring Resident #1 at least 4-5 times per week. CNA M stated Resident #1
had problems with her left foot. She stated she was not capable of placing her left foot on the floor but for a
few seconds. She stated Resident #1 did not have but very little weight bearing on her right foot and none
on her left foot when she assisted Resident #1 with transfers. CNA M stated Resident #1 was a two person
gait belt transfer. She stated there was no issues in transferring Resident #1 when one staff stood on one
side of Resident #1 and another staff stood on the other side of Resident #1. She stated the staff on the left
side was the one observing the left foot to ensure the left foot did not hit anything or drag on the floor during
the transfer. CNA M stated Resident #1 would sometimes put her left foot on the floor during transfer and
this is when the staff would reposition her foot. She stated if staff left room between the wheelchair and the
bed it was very easily for one staff to be on each side of Resident #1. CNA M also stated Resident #1
would put some weight on her right foot but not all the time when she was assisted to the standing position.
She stated Resident #1 left foot required to be watched the entire time of transfers due to having left foot
drop and she could put her foot down and not have any control of the left foot. She stated this is why having
one person on each side of Resident #1 was very important with her transfer. CNA M stated the staff did

Resident #1. She stated Resident #1 would hold her foot up a few inches off the floor but sometimes would
put her left foot down during transfer and this is when the staff on the left side could reposition the left foot.
She stated during transfers of Resident #1 one staff always watched her left foot to prevent it from dropping
and getting caught in the wheelchair or anything during the transfer. She stated resident was very fragile
and everyone needed to be extremely careful when transferring Resident #1. She stated if staff was
standing behind Resident #1 and staff in front of Resident #1 that would be very difficult to transfer her due
to someone needed to be on her left side to watch the left foot.
In an interview on 10/15/2023 at 11:31 AM, the MDS Coordinator/LVN stated Resident #1 required
extensive assistance with two staff using a gait belt to transfer Resident #1. She stated Resident #1was
minimal weight bearing on right foot when standing. She stated Resident #1 had a left foot drop and was
not capable of placing full weight on her left foot. The MDS Coordinator stated when transferring Resident
#1 the right foot was expected to be next to the bed. She also stated if the right foot was next to the bed and
when staff transferred Resident #1 there was less chance of the left foot getting caught on the wheelchair
or dropping her foot on the floor during transfer. She stated one staff needed to be on each side of Resident
#1 to observe the left foot and reposition it during transfer if needed. MDS Coordinator stated she had not
transferred Resident #1 or observed anyone transfer Resident #1. She stated based on Resident #1's
physical condition she needed someone to observe the left foot during transfers. She also stated if a staff
was behind Resident #1 and a staff was in front of Resident #1 it would be very difficult for staff to observe
the left foot during transfer. She stated with Resident #1 she believed transferring her with one staff on each
side of resident was the most efficient transfer. She also stated if a staff made a statement of never
transferring Resident #1 and asked Resident #1 what type of transfer did she require, she stated she would
assume the staff did not know how to transfer Resident #1.
In an interview on 10/15/2023 at 11:45 AM,RN O stated she began working at the facility on 09/16/2023
and 09/17/2023. She stated Resident #1 did not complain of any type of pain in her left leg or left knee the
entire weekend. She stated she had never transferred or observed Resident #1 being transferred. She
stated she administered medication to Resident #1. She stated all staff should be familiar with what type of
transfers each resident required before attempting to transfer a resident. RN O stated the staff was
expected to view the electronic medical record to gather information on transfers. She stated it was not
appropriate to ask a resident what type of transfer they required and ask if the resident needed a gait belt.
She stated any resident may become confused at that time and may give the correct information.

needed to be very observant during the entire transfer. She stated if a staff asked a resident how they are
transferred and if the resident required a gait belt, she believed the staff did not know what type of transfer
the resident required. She also stated Resident #1 could be transferred from the front and from the back of
the wheelchair. She stated if Resident #1 left leg was dragging or got caught on something the person
behind the wheelchair would need to move the wheelchair out of the way to reposition Resident #1's left
leg. She also stated there was a possibility of an injury during a transfer with Resident #1 related to her
being so fragile.
In an interview on 10/18/2023 at 11:35 AM, the Director of Nurses (DON) stated Resident #1 required two
staff assistance using a gait belt She stated Resident #1 was very fragile and had left foot drop. She stated

needed to be enough room between the bed and wheelchair where one person would be on each side of
Resident #1. The Director of Nurses stated one staff needed to observe Resident #1's left foot during the
transfer to ensure Resident #1 did not drag or hit anything. She stated

with the one staff observing the left foot the staff could reposition the left foot as needed or stop the transfer
and assist resident to the wheelchair until Resident #1 was ready for the transfer. She stated if staff was
behind the resident and staff in front of the resident, she would consider this a one person transfer. She
stated with Resident #1 she needed someone to watch the left foot and be able to get to the left foot if it
was dragging on the floor or was caught in the wheelchair or anything could happen and someone would
need to immediately reposition the left foot She stated if staff was behind the wheelchair during the transfer
it would be very difficult for that person to move the wheelchair to reposition Resident #1's left foot. Director

training on transfers. She stated she was never taught in all the years of being a CNA for one staff stand
behind the wheelchair and a staff stand in front of a resident during a transfer. She stated if a staff is behind
the wheelchair and resident had issues with their foot/ leg it would be difficult for the person behind the
wheelchair to observe the foot/leg to ensure the leg/foot was not caught on wheelchair or anything during
the transfer. CNA P stated the weaker foot needed to be away from the bed and the foot without any issues
needed to be next to the bed. She stated that is how she was taught to transfer a resident with weakness or

#1) of four residents reviewed for pain in that:
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to properly assess or provide effective pain management to Resident #1 after a new onset
of pain following the accidental fracture of her left tibia during a transfer from wheelchair to her bed.
This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving the highest practicable care through resident
assessments by recognizing and addressing the physical dysfunctions in an effective and timely manner to
prevent residents from further harm, injury, or death

pain (pain between the lower edge of the ribs), signs symptoms of musculoskeletal system ( mild to severe
aches, low back pain, numbness, tingling, atrophy, and weakness), muscle weakness ( a lack of strength in
the muscles), osteoporosis without current pathological fracture (generally caused by a fall from a standing
height or lower and usually involves the spine, hip or wrist), lack of coordination (uncoordinated movement
due to a muscle control problem that causes an inability to coordinate movements), left foot drop ( caused
by weakness of the muscles involved in lifting the front part of the foot) and, abnormalities of gait and
mobility (when a person is unable to walk in the usually way).
Record review of Resident #1's Annual MDS assessment, dated 07/28/2023, reflected Resident #1 had a
BIMS score of fifteen, which indicated the resident's cognition was intact. Resident #1 did not reject care.

assistance by two staff members. Resident #1 required extensive assistance by one staff member with bed
mobility. Resident #1 was at risk for falls related to gait/balance problems. She had limited physical mobility.
Resident had chronic pain related to osteoporosis (a condition when bone strength weakens) Interventions
included to anticipate the resident's need for pain relief and respond immediately to any complaint of pain;
identify and record previous pain history and management of that pain and impact of function; identify
previous response to analgesia (treatment that prevents you from feeling pain while you are awake)
including pain relief, side effects and impact on function; monitor/document for probable cause of each pian
episode; and remove/limit causes where possible. Resident #1's further interventions were:
monitor/document for side effects of pain medication; administer analgesia as per orders; give ½

call the MD and have x-rays ordered. She stated she spoke with LVN A and explained the Administrator
stated to call the MD and have x-rays ordered. She stated LVN A was organizing to pass out medications
and began to pass medications and there was not an emergency occurring where she could not stop what
she was doing and go to Resident #1's room. She stated she did not feel comfortable leaving Resident #1
on 09/18/2023 due to LVN A not going to Resident #1's room to complete an assessment on her or giving
her pain medication when Resident #1 was in pain more than an hour before LVN A gave me the pain
medication to give to Resident #1. She stated she had to do something because Resident #1's left knee
swelling was increasing, and the pain was getting a lot worse.
In an interview on 09/20/2023 at 3:41 PM LVN D stated Resident #1 yells out frequently. She stated when
she is yelling, she is in pain. LVN D stated the resident complains about her back hurting. She stated
everyone knew Resident #1 yelled frequently when she was in pain. She stated there were times when she
was speaking to Resident #1, and she was complaining/ yelling with pain, and she would administer her
ordered pain medication without asking Resident #1 where she was hurting or her pain level. She stated
she has not ever completed a pain assessment on Resident #1 but now she realized she was required to
complete a pain assessment and document in the nurses notes about Resident #1's pain. She also stated
the nurses were expected to ask where the pain was located and the pain level on a scale of zero-ten. She
stated zero was- no pain and ten was extreme pain. She stated due to Resident #1 complaining about pain
all the time the nurses would give her the pain medication if it was scheduled and not ask her any
questions. She stated if she had been working on the night of 09/18/2023 and Resident #1 was
complaining about pain in her knee she would have given her pain medication and probably would not have
asked any questions or completed any type of incident report or pain assessment due to Resident
#1always complained about pain. She stated that was her normal behavior. LVN D stated the resident did
not have any behavior problems. She stated she would yell but only when she was in pain. She stated
Resident #1 was cooperative with staff and did not have any behavior issues. LVN D stated she has given
care to Resident #1 numerous times. She stated it varied from week to week, but she was very familiar with
Resident #1's physical condition, moods, and behaviors. LVN D stated Resident #1 will yell out when she is
in pain. She stated she had severe back pain and had an MRI. She also stated when Resident #1 was in
pain she did not assess the resident to determine if it was a new pain or pain from her back. She stated
everyone knows if Resident #1 is in pain she will yell, and they do not assess the pain very closely when
giving pain medication. She stated the nurses gives her anti -anxiety medication to prevent her from yelling.
She also stated she did not believe any assessment was required when she was yelling about pain in her
knee. She stated she was not working on 09/18/2023 but she would not have completed a pain assessment
on resident.
In an interview on 09/20/2023 at 8:11 PM Resident #1's family member stated he witnessed from the
camera in Resident #1's room on 09/18/2023 at 5:51 PM, staff breaking Resident #1's leg, Resident #1
complaining of pain and staff saying back to Resident #1 you know you're not hurt. He stated the staff said
to Resident #1 she complained about her back hurting before too and it was nothing. He stated staff did not
call the family to notify them of the incident until 09/19/2023 and an ambulance was called to transfer
Resident #1 to the hospital on [DATE]. He also stated when the staff began to realize Resident #1 was in
pain one of the staff turned the volume up on the television where it was difficult at times after those
statements to hear what staff was saying.

gait belt around the resident's waist. She stated they began to transfer Resident #1 to the bed and as soon
as they pivoted Resident #1 onto the bed, she began to yell her knee hurt. PTA C stated she assumed it
was similar of her complaining about her back pain. She stated at some point Resident #1 stated her left
leg was broken. PTA C also stated she realized that was a different type of pain than what she has
complained in the past. She stated the COTA/ Marketing Coordinator left the room to report to LVN A. She
stated they kept waiting on pain medication or the nurse to assess Resident #1 due to her knee continuing
to swell and becoming larger. She stated Resident #1 would yell in pain when her leg was barely touched or
moved. Resident #1 would rub her knee and below the knee onto her left leg and stated it was broken. PTA

stated LVN A walked out of the room and stated she is fine; she always complains about pain. She also
stated LVN A was preparing to pass out medications and began to pass out meds to residents and there
was not an emergency and LVN A could have stopped what she was doing and came to Resident #1's
room.
In an interview on 09/21/2023 at 2:45 PM the Administrator stated the COTA/ Marketing Coordinator
contacted her on 09/18/2023 in the evening. She stated she did not recall the exact time. She stated she

she expected a pain assessment to be completed. She stated LVN A was expected to assess Resident #1
and ask the staff who was in Resident #1's room questions and contact the DON with the information. She

the MD and request for Resident #1 to be sent to the emergency room that night. She stated if Resident #1
was in pain and complaining of her left knee being broken on 09/18/2023, 911 needed to be called and
EMS transfer her to the hospital. She stated anytime a resident complains of pain the nurse was expected
to ask the resident where the pain was located , the level of the pain, and to document all that information
in the nurses notes and complete a pain assessment. She stated if Resident #1 had new pain after a
transfer, the nurse was expected to ask the staff questions about the transfer, immediately do an
assessment, and begin an incident report (reviewed incident reports and did not observe any incident
reports of this incident of Resident #1 on 09/18/2023) if needed. She stated the nurse was expected to
contact the DON with the information and after she contacted the physician, then call 911 to transfer
Resident #1 to emergency room. The Administrator stated it was not best practice to have a resident in the
facility from the night of 09/18/2023 until the morning of 09/19/2023 in pain with a possible left leg or knee
fracture. She stated it was the DON's responsibility to monitor the nurses to ensure they are following
protocol.
In an interview on 09/22/2023 at 8:40 AM Med Aide E stated she had given medications to Resident #1
except pain medications and her anxiety medications. She stated whenever Resident #1 has reported to
her she was in pain she would inform the nurse. She stated Resident #1 did not exhibit any behavior
problems; however, she would yell only when in pain. She stated other than yelling she was not aware of
any behavior problems with Resident #1. She also stated if a resident had new pain and was complaining
for hours of being in pain and had stated her leg or knee was broken, the resident needed to be transferred
to emergency room immediately. Med Aide E stated Resident #1 was alert and oriented and was able to
verbalize her pain, and the nurse needed to listen to Resident #1 and should know it could be serious and
needed immediate medical attention in the hospital. She stated she would continue to ask the nurse to
send a resident to hospital if the resident was complaining of knee pain, if the knee was swollen, and if
resident stated her leg was broken.
In an interview on 09/22/2023 at 9:05 AM, LVN B stated Resident #1 did complain about pain frequently.
LVN B stated the resident did not have any behavior problems except for yelling when she was in pain. She
stated whenever a resident complained about pain, the nurse was expected to ask where the pain was
located and complete a pain scale assessment with zero indicated no pain and ten indicated extreme pain.
She stated that was to be documented in the nurses notes at the time of administer the pain medication.
LVN B also stated the nurse was expected to speak to the resident within 2 hours and determine if the pain
medication was effective. She stated a pain assessment was required whenever a resident was in pain. She
stated she had given medications to Resident #1 when she had been in pain. She also stated there should
be more than one pain assessment completed on Resident #1 due to her having pain a lot. She stated a
nurse giving the resident pain medication since she had been admitted should have completed a pain
assessment on Resident #1. She stated the nurse would document the pain level on the MAR when they
interact with a resident. LVN B stated, however, the resident may have pain during the shift and there was
not a place on the MAR to document that pain. She stated when a resident had pain during the shift where
the pain is located, and the pain level was required to be documented in the nurses notes prior to
administering pain medication. She also stated if the pain was not a zero, a pain assessment was required
to be completed. She stated she was surprised that only MDS Nurse completed a pain assessment.
In an interview on 09/22/2023 at 9:55 AM, LVN F stated if any staff reported a resident was having a new
pain and their knee was swelling, she would immediately go to that resident's room and assess the
resident. She stated she would complete a pain assessment and if resident were in severe pain and has
stated her leg was broken, she would contact the MD immediately and if the MD did not return call within 5

type of medication to a resident. She stated a non-nurse staff would not know if she was administering the
correct medication. She stated it was not the facilities protocol for a non-nurse to administer any
medication. She stated a resident could choke and there were protocols to follow when administering
medications such as: ensuring it is the correct person by viewing the resident picture on the medication
administration record, the nurse required to check to ensure it was the correct medication, ensure it was
given at the right time and it was the right dose. She stated if a non-nurse was giving the medication how
did that person know the nurse completed all of these precautions prior to placing medicine in the cup and

or 15 years and she stated she was taught in med-aide class it was not protocol for a med-aide or a nurse
to give medication to a non -nurse staff to administer to a resident. She stated if a nurse or med-aide signs
the medication administration form that the nurse or med-aide gave the medication and then give the
medication to a non-nurse, a nurse or med-aide could lose their license. She stated anything could go
wrong with a non -nurse administering any type of medication. Med Aide E stated how does the nurse
knows the non -nursing staff will give it to the resident. She also stated there were certain residents
required their medication be administered a certain way such as in pudding or may need extra water to
ensure the resident swallowed the pill. She stated this was against nursing protocol and she would never
allow anyone give medication she had put her initial on the medication administration record. She stated
whoever signs the record they are responsible for the medication. Med-Aide E also stated if a nurse gave
medication to a non-nurse staff the nurse was 100 percent wrong. She stated a resident could choke on the
medication, may pocket the medication, and not swallow the medicine. She stated there was a cluster of
mistakes possibly could occur with the resident. She also stated when administering medications, the nurse
or med-aide was expected to look at the picture on the MAR prior to administering the medication.

stated it could be dangerous for the resident if a non-nurse gave a resident medication. She stated a
resident could choke and how did the nurse know the staff would not take the medication themselves and
not give it to the resident. She stated when she gives medications, she views the medical medication record
and compares it to the medicine located in the package. She stated when she determined it was the correct
medication, she would place the pills in a medicine cup. She stated after she completed this process with
all the medicines a resident takes, she would compare the resident to the picture on the mar and then
administer the medication. She stated if a resident required medications to be crushed, she would crush the
medicines. She stated a resident receiving medication from a non-nurse may choke or have difficulty with
swallowing med or may prefer to take the medication a certain way such as place the pill in a certain area in
