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
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to immediately inform the resident; consult
with the resident's physician; and notify, consistent with his or her authority, the resident representative(s)
when there is a significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychosocial status or a need to
alter treatment significantly for one (Resident #1) of four residents reviewed for change in condition.
The facility failed to notify the NP in a timely manner when Resident #1 voiced pain to her left knee,
swelling, and heat to the touch was observed by LVN B. LVN B noted swelling and warm to touch on
Resident #1's knee at approximately 4:00 PM. LVN B noted they contacted the NP when Resident #1's
family was present at approximately 10:00 PM. Resident #1 was sent to the hospital and found to have a
fractured left patella (kneecap).
The noncompliance was identified as PNC IJ. The IJ began on 09/04/24 and ended on 09/21/24. The facility
had corrected the noncompliance before the investigation began.
This failure placed residents at risk of harm, injuries, and hospitalization.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 09/30/24, reflected an [AGE] year-old female who was admitted
to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #1 also had diagnoses including
displaced transverse fracture (the pieces of an individual's bone moved so much that a gap formed around
the fracture when the individual's bone broke) of the left patella, multiple fractures of the ribs on the left
side, unspecified fracture of the shaft (the main part of a cylindrical body) of the left femur (thigh bone), and
an encounter for other orthopedic aftercare.
Review of Resident #1's comprehensive MDS assessment, dated 07/25/24, reflected there was no BIMS
score documented. Resident #1 also required partial/moderate assistance with most ADLs except transfers,
in which she was dependent on staff assistance.
Review of Resident #1's BIMS assessment, dated 09/02/24, reflected a 5 BIMS score, which indicated she
had severe cognitive impairment.
Review of Resident #1's care plan, revised on 09/09/24, reflected staff noted on 07/19/24 that Resident #1
had an ADL deficit related to her cognitive and physical limitations. Staff were required to notify Resident
#1's RP and MD of significant change in condition/function as needed as an

Review of Resident #1's orders, as of 09/30/24, reflected staff were given a general order on 09/05/24 to
send Resident #1 to the ED per NP on-call.
Review of Resident #1's hospitalist history and physical, dated 09/06/24, reflected she was sent to the
hospital on [DATE] for a chief complaint of knee pain. Left knee x-ray results reflected Resident #1's bones
were osteopenic (having reduced bone density) and she had a new acute fracture of the mid patella with
approximately 10 mm distraction between major fracture fragments and adjacent soft tissue swelling.
Review of Resident #1's operative report, dated 09/06/24, reflected her pre- and post- operative diagnosis
was left patella displaced transverse fracture. Resident #1 received surgery on her left patella fracture on
09/09/24.

09/05/24. LVN A stated she did not know why the other nurse (LVN B) reported Resident #1 had swelling to
her left knee because she did not see swelling to Resident #1's left knee during her shift, which was before
LVN B's shift. LVN A stated she put a progress note later that she observed Resident #1 in the morning
(09/05/24 at 7:30 a.m.) and Resident #1 complained of pain to her left knee. LVN A stated she notified the

because Resident #1 was not often up in her wheelchair. LVN B stated she did not notify the NP about
observing Resident #1's left knee was swollen more than the right and that it was hot/warm to touch
because Resident #1's left knee was always bigger than the other knee. It was Resident #1's surgery leg,
there was no swelling any more than normal. LVN B stated the LVN A (day nurse) told her that she notified

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
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident received adequate
supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents for one (Resident #1) of four residents reviewed
for change in condition.
LVN A did not ensure Resident #1, who had a history of a left hip fracture, had a footrest on her wheelchair
before transferring her, resulting in a fractured left patella (kneecap).
The noncompliance was identified as PNC IJ. The IJ began on 09/04/24 and ended on 09/21/24. The facility
had corrected the noncompliance before the investigation began.
This failure placed residents at risk of not receiving adequate assistance devices, accidents during
transfers, harm, sustaining injuries, and hospitalization.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 09/30/24, reflected an [AGE] year-old female who was admitted
to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #1 had diagnoses including
displaced transverse fracture (the pieces of an individual's bone moved so much that a gap formed around
the fracture when the individual's bone broke) of the left patella with routine healing, unspecified pain,
multiple fractures of the ribs on the left side with routine healing, unspecified fracture of the shaft (the main
part of a cylindrical body) of the left femur (thigh bone) with routine healing, and an encounter for other
orthopedic aftercare.
Review of Resident #1's comprehensive MDS assessment, dated 07/25/24, reflected there was no BIMS
score documented. Resident #1 also required partial/moderate assistance with most ADLs except transfers,
in which she was dependent on staff assistance.
Review of Resident #1's BIMS assessment, dated 09/02/24, reflected a 5 BIMS score, which indicated she
had severe cognitive impairment. Resident #1 had a fall prior to admission and no falls since admission.
Review of Resident #1's care plan, revised on 09/09/24, reflected staff noted Resident #1 had a left patella
fracture without surgical intervention and had the potential for pain and limited joint movement
complications. The staff were required to apply non weight bearing to her left leg, the immobilizer was not to
be removed, transfer her with a sheet using more than four staff members, anticipate her needs, notify the
MD with changes, follow-up with x-rays as ordered with results sent to the MD, implement fall risk
precautions, maintain extremity alignment as directed, assess for complications, pain, limited range of
motion, signs and symptoms of infection, abdominal bruising or numbness, post-op instruction as directed,
arrange follow-up appointments as indicated, range of motion/activity as ordered, monitor tolerance/pain
control, vitals assessment as directed, pain assessment ongoing, weekly skin assessment and as needed
during care, wound care/treatments as directed, and monitor effectiveness.
Review of Resident #1's orders, dated 09/30/24, reflected staff were given a general order on 09/05/24 to
send Resident #1 to the ED per the NP on-call.

was left patella displaced transverse fracture. Resident #1 received surgery on her left patella fracture on
09/09/24.
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 10:18 a.m., the ADM stated she still did not know how Resident #1
sustained a fracture. The ADM stated Resident #1 had no falls at the facility. The ADM stated Resident #1
had one incident in which her dress got caught in her wheelchair and LVN A helped pull out her dress. The
ADM explained that Resident #1 started swelling in her left knee a few days after that incident. The ADM
stated Resident #1 had been doing fine and receiving pain management and treatment anytime she
experienced pain .
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 11:07 a.m., the ADM stated LVN A was suspended and still suspended
at the time of the interview because the facility was waiting for the SSA to investigate Resident #1's
incident.

where Resident #1 was sitting to take Resident #1 to the van. LVN A explained that as she and Resident #1
got to the lobby, Resident #1 yelled out and she stopped the wheelchair. LVN A stated Resident #1 pointed
at her dress, she observed Resident #1's long dress was caught in the wheelchair wheel. LVN A stated
Resident #1's leg was not really down on the floor. LVN A stated she noticed Resident #1's leg was slightly
bent, but there was not any kind of serious falling and Resident #1 did not fall. LVN A stated Resident #1
showed her that her leg was out. LVN A stated at the time of the incident on 09/04/24, Resident #1 did not
have footrest attached to her wheelchair. LVN A stated Resident #1 probably was supposed to have a
footrest attached to her wheelchair for safety reasons. LVN A stated she did not attach Resident #1's
footrest to her wheelchair because she oversighted (overlooked) and did not realize Resident #1 did not
have a footrest attached to her wheelchair. LVN A stated staff were supposed to attach residents' footrest to
their wheelchairs before pushing a resident in the wheelchair. LVN A stated she left, came back, attached
the footrest to Resident #1's wheelchair, and placed Resident #1's leg on the footrest after the incident
happened. LVN A stated Resident #1's feet were not on the footrests when she pushed Resident #1 to the
lobby before the incident happened. LVN A stated Resident #1's legs were picked up (raised up) when she
pushed Resident #1 in her wheelchair. LVN A explained staff usually made sure there was footrest on
residents' wheelchairs. LVN A stated staff were required to place residents' feet on the footrest in their
wheelchair at times, especially for residents who cognitively do not know how to move their legs. LVN A
stated Resident #1 knew how to move her legs. LVN A stated when moving a resident in a wheelchair, staff
must ensure resident safety. LVN A stated all nursing staff were responsible for ensuring residents' footrests
were attached to their wheelchairs. LVN A stated residents' health and safety could be at risk if their footrest
was not attached to their wheelchair because residents could fall out of the wheelchair during a transfer.
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 11:54 a.m., the ADM stated she was unsure if staff were in-serviced on
proper wheelchair transportation.

PM shift. CNA E stated she was trained on wheelchair transportation. CNA E stated if a resident had issues
with their feet or had a footrest, then the resident would have a footrest. CNA E stated CNAs attached
footrests to residents' wheelchairs and had nurses monitor to ensure footrests were attached to residents'
wheelchairs before transporting residents. CNA E stated residents health or safety could be at risk if a
resident did not have a footrest attached to their wheelchair. CNA E

stated she worked with Resident #1 and was unsure if Resident #1 required a footrest attached to her
wheelchair. CNA E stated she was in-serviced last month on wheelchair transport by the ADON, who
taught her how to securely lock the wheelchair in place, how to adjust footrests, and always ensure
Resident #1's footrest was attached to her wheelchair when being transported.
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 12:18 p.m., CNA F stated she worked during the 6:00 AM through 10:00
PM shift. CNA F stated she was trained on wheelchair transportation. CNA F stated if a resident was unable

ensured residents footrests were attached to their wheelchairs after placing residents in their wheelchairs.
CNA F stated residents health or safety could be at risk if no footrests were attached to their wheelchairs
because residents' feet could get caught if they cannot lift their legs. CNA F stated she worked with
Resident #1 and was unsure if Resident #1 required a footrest attached to her wheelchair because
Resident #1 never got up when she worked with her. CNA F stated she was in-serviced on wheelchair
transport on Monday or Tuesday of last week (09/23/24 or 09/24/24) by the DON. CNA F stated the
in-service discussed how to lock residents' wheelchairs before transferring residents in wheelchairs and
making sure footrests were attached if residents required footrests.
During an observation and interview on 09/30/24 at 12:26 p.m., Resident #1 had two wheelchairs with
footrests sitting on the wheelchair seat. Resident #1 was lying in bed and had a knee sleeve on her left leg.

Resident #1 should have been required to have a footrest attached to her wheelchair. LVN G stated
Resident #1 did not have a footrest attached to her wheelchair at all times because she did not always want
the footrest on.
An attempt to interview the van driver was made on 09/30/24 at 1:56 p.m. A voicemail and call back number
was left. The van driver did not return the call prior to exit.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 2:39 p.m., the NP stated she was notified on 09/04/24 of Resident #1's
incident, but she could not recall the details of the incident at the time of the interview .
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 5:17 p.m., the DON stated residents self-propelled themselves in their
wheelchairs when they were transporting inside the facility. The DON stated outside the facility, she
expected residents' footrests to be present for residents who were unable to self-propel themselves in their
wheelchairs. The DON stated she determined residents required footrests by if residents could self-propel
in the facility or not. The DON stated newly hired staff completed competencies on ambulating residents in
wheelchairs before they began to work with residents. The DON stated she did not know if the facility had a
policy on ambulating residents. The DON stated ambulating residents was more of an education topic than
an actual policy. The DON stated residents' health and safety could be at risk if they were ambulated
without wheelchair footrests by the nurse or a staff member because residents' feet can drop to the ground.
The DON stated Resident #1 did not require a footrest in the facility, but she required a footrest when going
out of the facility. The DON stated she was notified during the 24-hour report clinical meeting by LVN A of
Resident #1's incident. The DON stated the ADON asked for the incident report, which LVN A documented
per instruction from the ADON. The DON stated LVN A did not explain why she did not attach a footrest to
Resident #1's wheelchair when transporting Resident #1.
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 5:48 p.m., the ADM stated she was unsure if the facility had a policy that
specifically outlined how to ambulate a resident who was wheelchair dependent.
During an interview on 09/30/24 at 6:19 p.m., the DON stated the facility did not have a policy that
specifically outlined how staff were to ambulate residents who were wheelchair dependent. The DON stated
ambulating resident's protocols were reviewed under the new employee training orientation, which was
completed before staff started working with residents.
Review of the facility's provider investigation report reflected Resident #1's incident occurred at an unknown
date, time, and location. The incident was reported to SSA on 09/06/24 at 2:00 p.m. There were no
witnesses and alleged perpetrators. Resident #1 sustained a new acute fracture of the mid patella. LVN B
assessed Resident #1 on 09/05/24 at 10:50 p.m. and indicated that Resident #1's family reported to her
that Resident #1 said there was something wrong inside her left knee. LVN B noted the left knee was
swollen and warm to touch during Resident #1's head-to-toe assessment, provided Resident #1 with pain
medication and applied ice to the affected area. Provider response reflected, Once notified by the hospital
of the fracture, an internal investigation began. Upon receipt and review of hospital records, it was
discovered there were family statements charted by hospital staff that suggested an injury may have been
sustained in our facility during transport to gastroenterology appointment on 09/04/24. Based on statements
from the family and events reported by staff, it was decidedly prudent for the safely of our residences, to
suspend the LVN A on 09/06/24 until it was determined this was not abuse or neglect. When it was
substantiated, this did not demonstrate abuse nor neglect the LVN A was reinstated on 09/07/24.

The investigation summary reflected, On 9/6/2024, the facility received a call from the hospital and reported
that Resident #1 had been diagnosed with a fracture of the left patella with displacement. Resident #1 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] for skilled therapy and medical management. Resident #1 had a history of
osteoporosis. Prior to admission to the facility, Resident #1 sustained a fall in July 2024 with left distal peri
prosthetic femur fracture requiring open reduction and internal fixation left knee trauma requiring
arthroscopic surgery, fractures of the sixth and seventh ribs, followed by a complicated postop course. She
is a poor historian with diagnosis of age-related cognitive decline with a BIMS of 5. Investigation revealed
hospital records from 09/16/24 stated she had twisted the knee a day or 2 ago when transferring to
wheelchair and hit on edge of wheelchair. Employee statements did not support any evidence of that
occurrence. LVN charge nurse reports on 09/04/24 while transporting the resident from nurse's station to
lobby, in a wheelchair, her left leg slipped to the floor bending her knee slightly. LVN Immediately assessed
the knee, and no swelling or redness was noted. Resident #1 did complain of pain but had been given her
three times a day scheduled dose of Norco 5/325mg prior to the incident. Resident #1 was being treated for
post-surgical pain. Upon return from her appointment, LVN charge nurse reassessed the left knee and no
swelling or redness was noted. Resident #1 complained of pain and LVN charge nurse administered as
needed Norco 5/325mg at 10:10 a.m. NP was notified, and order was given to monitor for redness and
swelling. No redness or swelling was noted in the nurse's notes from 09/04/24 to the evening of 09/05/24.
Late evening 09/05/24, Resident #1 presented with left knee redness and swelling. LVN charge nurse called
the NP and received an order to transport to the hospital for evaluation and treatment. Per our
Investigations, van driver reports on 09/04/24, LVN charge nurse was transporting resident through the
lobby to the transport van and saw the resident's long dress get caught in the wheel pulling the leg to the
floor. Van driver reports the LVN charge nurse stopped the chair immediately and provided care to Resident
#1. Van driver reports the nurse did not appear to be hurried or in a rush. Resident #1's family reports on
09/06/24, Resident #1 reported to her she was put in wheelchair and rushed causing her leg to catch under
the wheelchair and falling forward. However, Resident #1 is a poor historian and was unable to reveal
details. GI medical assistant with MD stated on 09/19/24, Resident #1 attended an appointment on
09/04/24. The medical assistant stated Resident #1 did not complain of pain unrelated to GI origin during
the appointment.
Investigative summary reflected, On 9/6/2024, the facility was informed Resident #1 had been diagnosed
with a fracture to the left patella with displacement. The investigative process could not definitively identify
the cause of the injury therefore we are unable to confirm a specific incident to be solely responsible for the
fractured patella. The belief remains the Resident #1 pathological process of osteoporosis increased her
risk for serious injury lo the left knee and the injury was not found to be due to abuse or neglect.
Provider action taken post-investigation reflected LVN A was suspended, but it was lifted after investigation
findings were inconclusive. In-services were also conducted on abuse and neglect, treatment of pain, and
ambulating the wheelchair dependent.
Review of the facility's incident/accident tracking log for September2024 reflected on 09/04/24 during the
day shift, Resident #1 sustained an injury during handling and sustained a patella fracture by an unknown
cause in which she was treated in the hospital, the incident was investigated and reported, and staff were
trained.
Review of the facility's accident/incident report, dated 09/05/24, reflected while pushing Resident #1
through the lobby to an appointment, Resident #1's foot got caught on the carpet. Resident #1 complained
of pain, was assessed, and had no redness or swelling noted. The footrest was attached to

#1 was discharged to the hospital on [DATE] and returned to the facility on [DATE].
Review of the facility's in-services reflected staff were educated on abuse and neglect on 09/06/24 by the
ADON. Staff were also educated on treatment of pain, ambulation, and abuse and neglect on 09/06/24 by
the ADON. The staff were taught that when a resident complains of pain, the nurse must go and assess the
resident for pain and administer pain medications as appropriate, the nurse must document administering
the medication, outcome and effectiveness of the medication, documentation was paramount, nurses
should be notified immediately when a resident complains of pain. Staff were also taught that while
ambulating the wheelchair dependent resident to be aware of leg placement of the resident, ensure
residents' legs were properly aligned, footrests were to be applied correctly and on the correct wheelchair,
ensure their legs and feet were properly aligned, footrests were required every time a staff member
assisted the resident with ambulation, only qualified staff may ambulate, self-propelled residents were not
required to have footrests unless they were propelled by staff. and at that time footrests would be applied.
Staff were also taught to ambulate a resident at a slow steady pace, be mindful of their feet at all times,
only one resident was to be ambulated at a time, Trains were never acceptable for the ambulation of
residents, all outside appointments required footrests, prepare residents for appointments the day prior and
ensure the location of footrests, all incidents were not always falls, and to use the list on the incident report
to determine incidents. Staff were educated on fall management clinical protocol on 09/21/24 by RN D,
which taught them about all the steps in responding to a fall, assessing, and documenting, and reporting
change in condition or level of consciousness. Staff were also educated on abuse prevention falls on
09/21/24 by RN D, which taught them about fall risk residents and fall interventions to implement. Staff were
also taught and reviewed on abuse prevention on 09/21/24 by RN D.
Review of the facility's change in a resident's condition or status policy and procedure, revised May 2017,
reflected the following:
