This survey cited 1 deficiency, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few 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 observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to immediately inform the resident's physician and notify, consistent with his or her authority, notify a resident's representative when there was an accident involving the resident and/or when there was a significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychosocial status for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for notification of changes in that: The facility failed to promptly notify Resident #1's physician and responsible party when Resident #1 exhibited cries of pain on 6/8/24 and verbally stated ow, my leg while crying in pain again on 6/9/24 after falling and suffering from a fracture of the right femoral/femur neck on the right hip on 6/07/24. She did not receive an X-ray until 06/10/2024 when Resident #1's responsible party sent a video recording of her crying in pain to the hospice provider. She was not sent out to be admitted to the hospital for treatment for over 65 hours although she was crying out in pain until 06/10/2024 at approximately 3:29 PM. An immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation was identified on 06/13/2024 at 12:59 PM. While the IJ was removed on 06/14/2024 at 12:00 PM, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and a severity level of potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy because all staff had to be trained on who to notify if they were to discover a resident crying out in pain and a change in behavior. This deficient practice could place residents at risk of not having their RP or physician informed when there is a change in condition resulting in a delay in medical intervention and decline in health. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 06/10/2024 reflected an [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses of unspecified dementia, unspecified severity, without behavioral/psychotic/mood/anxiety.

(See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

In an interview on 06/11/2024 at 3:00 PM, Resident #1's Family Member B stated that she had recorded a video while she was in Resident #1's room of the nurses changing her while she was crying out in pain. She stated that her leg was in pain and that she informed Resident #1's Responsible Party that something was wrong. She stated that she frequently visited Resident #1 and was aware of the fall that had recently occurred. She was under the impression that there were no injuries so she was shocked to see her screaming in pain and verbally saying ow, my leg when she was at the facility. She stated that she did not know the staff members by name but that it was obvious something was wrong and that they had to have known about it. In an interview on 06/12/2024 at 12:40 PM, the Physician stated he was not notified of any crying of pain or incident except when the facility contacted him about Resident #1's fall on 06/07/24. He stated he was not notified of Resident #1 being found crying out in pain or saying ow, my leg. He stated that had he had known that then it would have indicated that Resident #1 be further evaluated and received an x-ray sooner which would have revealed the fracture sooner. The Physician stated the Administrator, DON, ADON or a nurse should always contact him if there was a fall, pain, or any change of condition with a resident. The Physician stated Resident #1 could have fractured her hip falling from any height because of the osteoporosis diagnosis. He stated she did have brittle bones and it would be difficult for him to determine if Resident #1 may have broken a bone falling from a low bed height or a normal bed height. He stated that Resident #1 required maximum activities of daily living and was on hospice with chronic pain. He stated that she had pain issues in the past and had behavior issues in the past. He stated it would be hard to know without there being a visual indicator that something was wrong because the resident could be having a normal behavior. However, because Resident #1 verbally said ow, my leg there should have been attention brought to the leg. In an interview on 06/12/2024 at 1:20 PM, HSP Q stated that he was the Clinical Director of the hospice company. He stated that Resident #1 had a hip fracture and that her Responsible Party was upset. He stated that the hospice company could only do a mobile x-ray.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few can do in the hospital. He stated that the only notes that the hospice agency received from the facility was when the facility called the answering service about the fall that occurred on Friday 06/07/2024. He stated that the facility had sent out a brief message saying that the patient had fallen or something like that. He stated that it was his understanding that there was no injury. He said that he didn't even know about the pain or anything that Resident #1 was having until Sunday 06/09/2024. He found out about the leg pain because the Responsible Party sent him the video of Resident #1 crying out in pain. He stated that is when the hospice nurse went out to check on Resident #1. Another nurse went back on Monday 06/10/2024 to check on her again and that's the day that she was sent to the hospital. He stated that he chose to do the x-ray because there must be something more wrong with her if she was in pain. He stated that she had back pain for a while and that's normal for her to complain of that but not about her leg. He stated that some fractures are small enough that they don't show up until there has been some movement and stuff. He stated that the nurse that performed the assessment after the fall stated that the resident wasn't crying and that there was no indication of any fracture, so they put her back in bed. He stated that if Resident #1 started showing signs of changes or complaining about her leg hurting then the facility should have done something. He stated that the facility should have called the hospice company to tell them what was going on. He stated that she can communicate pain. Once the facility started noticing that there was pain, they should have or could have called the hospice company. He stated that he saw the video of Resident #1 crying out in pain on Monday 06/10/2024 and ordered the x-ray. He stated that the hospice nurse that performed the assessment on Sunday 06/09/2024 did not mention anything about Resident #1 being in pain at that time. He stated at the end of every on-call section, hospice will write a synopsis usually saying something like not eating much or something like that. There was no mention of pain. He stated that the LVN had administered pain medication and that could have masked her symptoms. He stated that Resident #1 has a history of chronic pain, and that morphine keeps her comfortable. When asked if the hospice nurse on Sunday should have discovered pain during the assessment from something like a test of Resident #1's range of motion he stated, You will certainly not want to be moving the leg around if you suspect a break. You should look to see if you could bend it without pain. But yeah, she could have done the assessment if she had any notion that there might have been an injury. He stated that the hospice agency was not aware of any injury at that time. He stated that the change in condition was initially because Resident #1 was not swallowing. It was not about pain. In an interview on 06/12/2024 at 1:50 PM, CNA C stated that she worked with Resident #1 on Friday 06/07/2024 before her fall occurred and again on Sunday 06/09/2024. She stated that when she arrived to work on Sunday morning, she noticed that Resident #1's bed was lowered which seemed off, that her leg was propped up with a pillow underneath it, and that Resident #1 seemed out of it. She stated that she went straight to LVN A and informed him that something was wrong. She stated that LVN A told her that Resident #1 had a fall. She stated that she changed Resident #1's gown and that's when Resident #1 began screaming saying my leg, my leg, my leg. She stated that Resident #1's leg wouldn't lay down straight. She stated that Resident #1 was having a change in condition from her previous shift that she had worked with her on Friday 2 days before. She stated that Resident #1 would not eat her food, she would just let it sit inside her mouth. She said that Resident #1 normally ate her food without problem and that she normally ate all of it. She stated that she could tell something was different immediately when she entered the room. She stated that she had never heard Resident #1 complain about leg pain before. She stated that the family was in the room with her when she did another changing and that they were very upset.

The family started asking what had happened to her, so she told them that she had fallen over the weekend and that she didn't know what was going on other than that. She stated that she did not know if LVN A knew about Resident #1's leg pain before her shift started but she believed that he did. She told him during her shift. She stated that the Weekend Supervisor had called hospice so that they could perform an assessment. She stated that when she had worked on Friday everything was normal.

She stated that Resident #1 wasn't even going to the bathroom like she normally would. She stated that the first time she heard Resident #1 say something verbally about her leg was at around 7:30 AM and that's when she told LVN A. She stated that the leg didn't look right and that it was turned. She stated someone had to have known because the leg was propped up on a pillow. She stated that her leg looked bruise with purple dots and that she has never seen that on her leg before. In an interview on 06/12/2024 at 2:03 PM, RN O stated that she was the Weekend Supervisor that worked with Resident #1 and LVN A on the weekend of 6/8/24-6/9/24. She stated that she spoke to the Responsible Party and that he was upset. She understood that he was upset and stated that anyone would be upset if their family member was in the same situation as Resident #1. She stated that the Responsible Party had told her that Resident #1 did not recognize him, so she called the hospice nurse who came and assessed her.
