Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record review, the facility failed to notify the residents physician and representative regarding
a change in the resident's condition, for 1 of 6 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for changes in condition The facility failed to immediately consult with Resident #1's physician when Resident #1 sustained a fall
with complaints of pain to the knee on the evening of 08/07/2025 until the next morning 08/08/2025,
because CNA C failed to inform nursing staff. An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 08/21/25 at
2:23 PM. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 2:51 PM. While the IJ was removed on
8/22/2025 at 2:51pm, the facility remained out of compliance at a severity level of no actual harm with
potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy and a scope of isolated, because all
staff had not been trained on 08/22/2025. This failure could place residents at risk of not having their family
and physicians notified of changes resulting in a delay in decision making for medical interventions.The
Findings include:Record review of Resident #1's undated face sheet revealed an [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE]. Resident #1 had a medical history of periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic
right knee joint (a bone break that occurs around a knee replacement implant), dementia (a general term
for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life), gout (a painful form of inflammatory
arthritis that happens when uric acid crystals build up in the joints), and age-related osteoporosis (a bone
disease that makes bones weak and brittle, leading to an increased risk of fractures). Record review of
Resident #1's quarterly MDS dated [DATE], Section C-Cognitive Patterns revealed Resident #1 had a BIMS
of 4 which indicated Resident #1 had severe cognitive impairment. Record review of Section GGFunctional Abilities revealed Resident #1 required Supervision or touching assistance with chair/bed-to
chair transfers and sit to stand.Record review of Resident #1's care plan revealed a focus initiated on
4/29/2025 [Resident#1] is at risk for acute/chronic pain r/t [related to] gout with an intervention to anticipate
need for pain relief and respond immediately to any complaint. The care plan also revealed a focus initiated
on 8/21/2025, [Resident #1] has a fracture of the right distal femur (the lower end of the thigh bone (femur),
specifically the area just above the knee joint) related to hearing a pop during transfer and interventions
initiated on 8/21/2025 revealed Anticipate and meet needs, be sure call light is within reach and respond
promptly to all request for assistance, change surgical incision dressing as per order and PRN(as needed),
follow weight bearing orders per MD order, reposition as necessary to prevent skin breakdown, therapy
evaluation and treatment per orders. Record review of Resident #1's document titled Physical Therapy
Treatment Encounter Note(s) dated 8/7/2025 at 4:00pm, revealed Pt (patient) STS (sit to stand) and stand
pivot with CGA ( Contact Guard Assist, describes a level of assistance where a therapist or caregiver has
their hands on the patient to provide physical support and balance for tasks like walking or standing, even
though the patient performs most of the activity) /[NAME] (minimum assistance)Record

her on 8/8/2025 about the fall and that Resident #1 told her during the night a CNA was attempting to take
her to the shower and during the transfer Resident #1 fell and her knee popped. Resident #1's family
member stated she was not sure if the CNA was unable to handle Resident #1's weight or why they had
only sent one person to assist Resident #1 but she was upset that the incident had happened on 8/7/2025
but nothing was done until 8/8/2025. She stated she was notified by the facility around 10AM on 8/8/25 that
Resident #1 had notified the morning nurse of her knee popping and they obtained an x-ray showing a
fracture to the right knee. She stated Resident #1 was sent out to the hospital where she had to have
surgery to the right knee to repair the fracture. She stated she did speak to the morning nurse and she was
made to feel as though it was Resident #1's fault because she was told this occurred due to Resident #1
attempting to self-transfer. She stated she wanted to know what had actually happened because she did
not believe Resident #1 would be lying about having a fall. She stated Resident #1 also complained of
being in pain and not having received any pain medication through the night to alleviate the pain in her
knee. During an interview with Resident #1 on 8/20/2025 at 8:45PM, she stated she did not remember
when the incident occurred or with who, but she remembers it was at night and the CNA had come to help
her into her wheelchair. She stated she is not sure what happened, but the CNA was unable to hold her
weight and they both fell together onto the floor. She stated she heard her knee pop after they fell. She
stated the CNA went to get help and returned with another CNA and between both of them they assisted
her back into bed. She stated she does not remember anyone checking on her through the night and she
complained of her right knee hurting. Resident #1 stated she did not want any of the CNAs to get in trouble.
She stated she told them her knee had popped and the morning nurse gave her pain medication, called the
doctor and they sent her to the hospital. She stated at the hospital she had surgery on her right knee. She

accident. During a second interview with Resident #1 on 8/21/2025 at 1:20pm, she stated the night of the
incident, she had been in pain the entire night and does not remember getting any pain medication. She

8/7/2025, no report of an injury or fall had been reported to her by anyone. She stated the CNAs were

Resident #1 during the night of 8/7/2025 but does not remember giving her any pain medication. She stated
she does not remember who called her on 8/8/2025 but they asked if Resident #1 had any injuries or falls
during the night shift, and she stated she was not aware of any events for that night. She stated the week of
8/11/2025, she had heard from CNA K, that CNA C had mentioned falling with Resident #1 prior to her
going to the hospital. She stated she did not report that to the DON or ADM because Resident #1 was
already at the hospital, and she believed it had already been addressed. During an interview with CNA B on

reported any falls or injuries. He stated this was his first time learning of a potential fall. He stated if the

on her way out and did not report the incident to anyone except CNA B. She stated she was trained to
report these incidents so the residents can have the proper assessments. She stated, I feel like I could
have done something different in this case, I would have tried to find a different nurse on a different hallway.

required surgery. During an interview with CNA K on 8/21/2025 at 9:09AM, she stated she had heard about
