prevent accidents.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident received adequate
assistance to prevent accidents for 1 of 13 residents (Resident #32) reviewed for accidents.
The facility failed to ensure the Van Driver transferred Resident #32 safely out of the facility transport van
using the mechanical wheelchair lift. Resident #32 fell out of the facility van and sustained a hematoma (a
collection of blood outside of a blood vessel, which is caused by injury or trauma) to the back of her head.
This failure could place residents at risk of injuries.
Findings included:
Record review of a face sheet dated 06/11/24 indicated Resident #32 was an [AGE] year-old female,
admitted to the facility on [DATE], and her diagnoses included acute pyelonephritis (a bacterial infection that
causes inflammation of the kidneys), cirrhosis of the liver (chronic liver damage from a variety of causes
leading to scarring and liver failure), muscle weakness, and difficulty walking.
Record review of a care plan revised 11/09/23 indicated Resident #32 used a wheelchair for locomotion
and required assistance of one to transfer.
Record review of a quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #32 was usually understood and had
moderately impaired cognition. She had functional limitation in range of motion to her lower extremities,
required assistance with transfers, and used a wheelchair for mobility.
Record review of a nurse's note dated 06/07/24 at 12:25 p.m. and signed by LVN B indicated the Van Driver
came running into the facility saying Resident #32 fell while unloading and was hurt. LVN B went to the
parking lot, to the van. Resident #32 was in her wheelchair, on her back, on the ramp which was on the
concrete. The resident was alert and complaining that her head and her back were hurting. The resident
had a large lump on the back of her head. Resident #32 said she fell out of the back of the van and hit her
head. Staff gently removed the wheelchair. LVN B called the ambulance and printed paperwork for transfer.
MA A cradled the resident's head on a pillow. Resident #32 was joking with staff. The ambulance arrived
quickly. The resident's neck was secured with a brace, and she was carefully transferred to a stretcher and
transported to a hospital.
Record review of an incident report dated 06/07/24 at 12:25 p.m. and signed by LVN B indicated the Van
Driver failed to raise the lift, pushed Resident #32 backwards from the rear of the van causing the resident
to fall. The resident was immediately assessed and remained conscious and still until EMS arrived.
Resident #32 had a hematoma to the back of her head, but no other major injuries were identified in the
emergency room. Staff education was initiated immediately regarding resident rights, incidents/accidents,
and abuse/neglect. The van would not be used until all staff that are cleared to drive the van had been
re-educated. Education would include:
-Proper use of the lift.
-If two or more residents were transported at one time the van driver must have another staff

entered through the side door and unfastened Resident #32's wheelchair from the safety belts. The resident
was upset and complaining of being hot and asked her to hurry up. She then rolled Resident #32
backwards toward the wheelchair lift while standing in the front of the wheelchair. The resident then put her
hands on the wheels of the chair pushing herself back. The Van Driver said she realized the lift was not up
and grabbed the wheelchair to keep Resident #32 from falling. The resident fell backward out of the van
hitting her head on the pavement and the Van Driver fell with her still holding onto the wheelchair. She said
she ran into the facility yelling for help. Staff immediately ran outside to help the resident. The wheelchair

Have a registered nurse on duty 8 hours a day; and select a registered nurse to be the director of nurses on
a full time basis.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to use the services of a registered nurse for 8 at
least consecutive hours 7 days a week for 2 of 4 quarters of 2023 (Quarter 4 July 01, 2023 through
September 30, 2023 and Quarter 1 October 01, 2023 through December 31, 2023) PBJ reports reviewed
for RN coverage.
The facility did not have RN coverage for 07/08/2023, 10/07/2023, and 10/08/2023.
This failure could place residents at risk of lack of nursing oversight and a higher level of care.
Findings included:
Record review of the CMS PBJ reports indicated:
* Quarter 4 2023 (July 01, 2023 through September 30, 2023) there were no RN hours on 07/08/23
(Saturday).
* Quarter 1 2023 (October 01, 2023 through December 31, 2023) there were no RN hours on 10/07/23/10
(Saturday) and 01/08/23 (Sunday).
During an interview on 06/12/24 07:50 a.m., the DON said PBJ reports were submitted by the facility's
corporate office. She said on 07/08/23 the facility had contracted an agency RN to work, and the RN did not
call to say she could not work and did not show up for her shift. She said she did not recall why the facility
did not have RN coverage for on 10/07/23 and 10/08/23. She said the possible negative outcome of not
having an RN working 8 hours a day 7 days a week was the facility not having a supervisor present in the
facility to oversee resident care.
During an interview on 06/12/24 at 08:05 a.m. the Administrator said the facility had a difficult time hiring
RNs at the facility. He said the facility had hired a new RN in October and RN coverage at the facility had
become less of a problem, but the facility had no RN coverage for 07/08/23, 10/07/23, and 10/08/23. He
said possible negative outcome of not having 8 consecutive hours of RN coverage daily was the facility had
no supervisor present to oversee resident care.
Record review of facility policy titled Staffing, Sufficient and Competent Nursing, revised August 2022,
indicated, . A registered nurse provides services at least eight (8) consecutive hours every 24 hours, seven
(7) days a week. RNs may be scheduled more that eight (8) hours depending on the acuity needs of the
resident.
