F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few 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 observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the residents environment remained as free of accident hazards as was possible and ensure each resident received adequate supervision for one (Resident #1) of three residents reviewed for accidents and hazards, in that: The facility failed on [DATE] to ensure Resident #1 remained free of hazards and had adequate supervision in that she suffered a fall that resulted in a pool of blood around her head, a skin tear to her left elbow, and bruises on all extremities which lead to her subsequent hospitalization with 3 fractured ribs on the left (8th, 9th, and 10th rib). An immediate jeopardy existed from [DATE] - [DATE]. The IJ was determined to be at past noncompliance as the facility had implemented actions that corrected the noncompliance prior to the beginning of the investigation. This deficient practice placed residents at risk for falls, injuries, and hospitalization. Findings included: Review of Resident #1's undated face sheet reflected an [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including unspecified dementia, repeated falls, anxiety, and depression. Review of Resident #1's annual MDS assessment, dated [DATE], reflected a BIMS of 99, indicating the resident could not complete the assessment. Section E (Behavior) reflected she had not shown signs of wandering. Section P (Restraints and Alarms) reflected a wander/elopement alarm was used daily. Section G (Functional Status) reflected she could ambulate in her room with supervision, and she did not ambulate in the corridor. Section J (Health Conditions) reflected she had not had any falls with major injury since admission/reentry or prior assessment. Section N (Medications) reflected she took daily antianxiety medications, antidepressant medications, anticoagulants and opioids. Review of Resident #1's undated care plan reflected she was at risk for mood problems due to dementia that was last revised [DATE]. The care plan further reflected that Resident #1 was an elopement risk due to being disoriented to place and impaired safety awareness, so a wander guard was placed on the right ankle ([DATE]). The care plan further revealed that Resident #1 was dependent on staff for activities, cognitive stimulation, and social interaction due to cognitive deficit, immobility and physical limitations. The care plan also revealed that Resident #1 was at risk for falls due to weakness, history of falls, dementia, anxiety, and bowel/bladder incontinence, and the following dates (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (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.

Residents Affected - Few During an interview on [DATE] at 3:23 pm Psych MD, stated that Depakote could cause falls and dizziness, as could Vistaril. He stated he would discontinue any medication if the RP requested it because it was the withdrawal of consent for the medication. He denied knowledge of the request to discontinue Vistaril but did change it to PRN because the RP was concerned about the falls. He was informed the resident would not stay in the wheelchair and was having falls, so he added Depakote and resumed scheduled Vistaril. He stated that he was not aware that Resident #1 was diagnosed with a UTI on the same day as the Depakote was started and that Resident #1's confusion and agitation could have been caused by the UTI and not progression of disease and he would have discontinued the Depakote if he had known.
