The facility failed to ensure Resident #1's RP and Physician were notified when he was found on the floor after a fall on 11/20/2025.

She stated her expectation around resident falls is that staff will provide the proper documentation and report to the proper people; to include the DON, Physician and Family. She stated an incident report was done earlier in the shift, but it wasn't' classified as a fall it was classified as an injury of unknown origin because they hadn't' yet found out about him being found on the floor.

She stated [LVN A] did not do any of that. She stated if falls are not reported their could be injuries of unknown origin, unexplained fractures, bleeding and the staff not being able to provide the care needed.She further stated that Resident #1's RP should have been notified when he fell so the family was aware of what was going on and there was no delay in care. During an interview on 12/2/2025 at 2:43 pm with the MD he stated he had been contacted late in the afternoon on 11/20/2025 about Resident #1 complaining of pain. He stated he was not informed that the resident had fallen and the nursing staff may not have known at that time either that the resident had fallen. He stated he ordered and x-ray of the hip and later the results indicated Resident #1 had a fracture. He stated he ordered Resident #1 sent to the hospital for additional care. He stated his expectation is that staff will make the appropriate notifications when a resident falls. During an interview on 12/2/2025 at 3:12 pm, LVN A stated she was the LVN working overnight from 11/19/202 to 11/20/2025. She stated after midnight she went into Resident #1's room and found him on the floor. She stated the resident denied he had fallen so she assumed he had just slipped out of bed and landed on his bottom. She stated she did not report this to anyone or call the RP because she didn't think it was a fall and the resident wasn't hurt or complaining of pain. During an interview on 12/3/2025 at 8:42 am, LVN A stated she did not call Resident #1's RP when she found him on the floor after midnight on 11/2025 because she didn't think it was considered a fall. She stated it is important to call the RP when something happens to a resident because RP's have to be aware of what is going on with their family members. When LVN A was asked why it was important that RPs know what is going on with a resident, she replied I don't know how to answer that - am I in trouble? During an interview on 12/3/2024 at 8:46 am, RP stated she received a call from a nurse at the facility around 4 pm on 11/20/2025 to tell her Resident #1 was complaining of a lot of pain and they wanted to get an x-ray, so she gave permission for the x-ray. She stated a nurse called her back later that evening around 10 pm to tell her the x-ray results showed a fracture and they wanted to send him out to the hospital, She gave permission for the resident to be sent out. She stated they never told her that Resident #1 had fallen. She stated it wasn't until 12/2/2025 when another FM had come up to the facility to visit the resident that she found out that he had been found on the floor and had fallen on 11/20/2025. She stated she found out that he had fallen just after midnight on 11/20/2025 but no one ever called her about the fall. She stated the only call she got was from the nurse in the afternoon on 11/20/2025 to say he was complaining of pain, and they were going to get an x-ray. She stated this was very upsetting that they never called her because they were usually good about keeping her informed. She was concerned because if they didn't inform her about this fall, what else might have happened that she didn't get a call about?
