hospital on [DATE]. Review of the HHSC database on [DATE] reflected a facility-reported incident called in
on [DATE] in which Resident #1 presented with a scalp laceration of unknown origin on [DATE] and
received one staple. There was no facility reported incident for the scalp laceration of unknown origin
discovered on [DATE] which required four staples. During an interview on [DATE] at 12:30 PM, a FM for
Resident #1 stated she had received a call from the facility notifying her that Resident #1 had been found in
another resident's (empty) bed with a laceration to his head and had been taken to the ER, where he had
received staples to his head laceration. An attempt was made to interview RN A on [DATE] at 1:00 PM. A
voicemail was left but no return call had occurred as of [DATE]. During an interview on [DATE] at 1:05 PM,
CNA B stated she had worked a double that day and had been in rounds all afternoon. She stated she had
just done a round and seen Resident #1 in his room less than an hour before, and then she did some
documentation at the nurse's station and then came back down to do another round and found Resident #1
in another resident's empty bed with a big cut on his head. She stated she reported to the nurse on duty
and Resident #1 went to the hospital. She stated she was off work by the time Resident #1 came back, but
she found out he did get staples. She stated he was hard to predict, and they had to put eyes on him once
per hour. She stated he might sit still in his room for a couple hours and then suddenly, he would be ready
to walk. CNA B stated he refused to be accompanied or to use any mobility equipment, and they tried
everything to keep him from walking unassisted, but he would curse and sometimes even physically assault
the aides when they tried to assist him. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:44 PM, the ADM who stated she
was the abuse coordinator and was responsible for implementing the abuse prevention system in the
facility. She stated she remembered the surveyor was present on [DATE] and investigated a facility
self-reported incident about Resident #1 presenting with a head laceration of unknown origin. She stated
she was not aware that another injury had occurred the night after the investigation exit. She stated a head
laceration with four staples would definitely prompt her to report the incident to HHSC. She stated the
family, and physician had been notified according to the incident report and there was evidence of
neurological assessments and after-fall monitoring in the progress notes as well as a nurse practitioner visit
on [DATE]. She stated the process that should occur was for the ADONs to pull the incident list the Monday
after a weekend, which would have been [DATE]. They would then discuss it at the morning meeting and
determine what other steps, including reporting to HHSC, would be required. She stated she did not see
how not reporting to HHSC could have affected the resident, as the facility followed their own protocol
otherwise. During an interview on [DATE] 3:10 PM, the DON who stated she was brand new to the facility
and had no knowledge of the events of [DATE] regarding Resident #1. During an interview on [DATE] at
3:27 PM, the ADON who stated she had responsibility for two halls of residents in the facility, and Resident
#1's hall was not one of them. She stated when Resident #1 presented with the head laceration on [DATE],
the previous assistant director of nursing was still in that position. The ADON who stated she was not aware
of that event and would not have pulled a report the Monday after the injury due to not being responsible for
Resident #1's hall. During an interview on [DATE] at 3:09 PM, the ADM who stated it was possible the
incident did not get reviewed during morning meeting because the nurse who completed it had not
documented an injury beyond the progress note narrative that was included. Review of facility policy dated
[DATE] and titled Abuse Prohibition Policy reflected the following: The facility will report all allegations and
substantiated occurrences of abuse, neglect or misappropriation of resident property to the state agency
and to all other agencies as required by law and will take all necessary, corrective actions, depending on
the results of the investigation. The abuse coordinator will report all allegations of abuse, neglect with
serious,
