During an interview on 09/10/24 at 02:40 PM, the SC stated she held an in-service a few months ago for
the CNAs to ensure they all knew how to perform mechanical lift transfers. She stated the FM of Resident
#1 felt they needed training on their transfers, so she was asked to conduct the training. The SC stated
CNA B was present for the training. The SC stated the particular method that she trained staff to employ
was one staff person behind the resident operating the mechanical lift and one in front guiding her legs and
feet. The SC stated all mechanical lifts in the building required two staff members to implement, and the
specialized transfer for Resident #1 also required two staff members.
During an interview on 09/10/24 at 02:58 PM, the ADON stated mechanical lift transfers always required
two people to operate the machine for the safety of residents. He stated if the machine was not operated by
two staff members, the resident could fall out. He stated it was also important to have two sets of eyes on
the situation to ensure there are no hazards. The ADON stated everyone was responsible for the safety of
residents, and no one person was solely responsible for ensuring transfers were done properly. He stated
he ensured transfers were conducted properly by doing rounds and keeping an eye on residents.
During an interview on 09/10/24 at 03:49 PM, the DON stated all mechanical lift transfers required the
participation of two staff members in the facility for the safety of residents. She stated they had trained
every staff person who had any involvement in mechanical lift transfers and had recently run a return
demonstration skills test for all CNAs to ensure they knew how to implement a safe transfer. She stated she
and the ADON and the entire team were responsible for ensuring transfers were done safely. She stated a
potential negative outcome to residents of not transferring properly with a mechanical lift was falls and
injury.
Review of a performance review dated 07/10/24 and signed by CNA B and the SC reflected CNA B
received her approval for all aspects of her performance of a mechanical lift transfer, including the following:
Gather assistance of at least one staff member prior to beginning, transfer and communicating expectations
of transfer, prearranged signals, and plan to complete transferred together.
Review of the facility's policy dated June 2018 titled Fall Management System reflected the following: The
facility is committed to providing resident autonomy by providing an environment that remains as free of
accident hazards as possible. Each resident is assisted in attaining or maintaining their highest practical
level of function through providing the resident adequate supervision, assistive devices and functional
programs as appropriate to prevent accidents.
