The facility failed to ensure CNA A did not unlock the wheels and move Resident #1's bed during peri care, causing Resident #1 to fall. This resulted in Resident #1 being sent to the hospital with fractures and lacerations. An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) existed from 05/31/2025 - 06/02/2025. The IJ was determined to be at past noncompliance as the facility had implemented actions that corrected the deficient practice prior to the beginning of the investigation.

Findings included: Review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 06/10/2025, reflected Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with the following diagnoses: history of falling ( person experienced past falls), muscle wasting and atrophy, not elsewhere classified (decrease in size and strength of muscle tissue), lack of coordination (the inability to smoothly and accurately control body movements), hypertensive heart disease without heart failure (the heart conditions caused by long-term high blood pressure- a condition where the force of blood against the artery walls is consistently too high, making the heart work harder to pump blood- that do not involve heart failure). Review of Resident #1's MDS Assessment, dated 05/28/2025, reflected Resident #1 was unable to complete brief interview for mental status. Resident #1 had poor short- and long-term memory recall.
