Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**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
free from accident hazards and the residents received adequate supervision and assistance to prevent
accidents for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for accidents. The facility failed to provide Resident #1
with adequate supervision and fall interventions on [DATE] when Resident #1 fell and received a laceration
to the back of his head and a trace subarachnoid hemorrhage of the anterior interhemispheric fissure (a
specific pattern of bleeding, often indicating a ruptured aneurysm of the anterior communicating artery).
This failure could place all residents at risk for serious injury and accidents.Findings include: Record review
of Resident #1's admission record, dated [DATE], indicated he was a [AGE] year-old male who had
diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy (a broad term for brain dysfunction caused by
non-traumatic, systemic issues like chemical imbalances, organ failure, or infections, rather than direct
brain injury), peripheral vascular disease, also known as peripheral artery disease, (a condition that occurs
when blood vessels narrow or become blocked, reducing blood flow to the body. Peripheral vascular
disease can affect any blood vessel outside of the heart, but it most commonly affects the legs and feet),
acute kidney injury (AKI), (the sudden, often reversible loss of kidney function, developing within hours or
days. It causes rapid accumulation of urea, creatinine, and fluid, leading to symptoms like decreased urine,
swelling, and fatigue), and diabetes (a group of diseases that result in too much sugar in the blood). Review
of Resident #1's Quarterly MDS dated [DATE] reflected Resident #1 had a BIMS score of 14 which
reflected Resident #1 was cognitively intact and had no functional limitation impairment on both of his lower
extremities in range of motion. The MDS also reflected Resident #1 required set-up or clean-up assist for
Chair/bed-to-chair transfer: The ability to transfer to and from a bed to a chair (or wheelchair) and for Sit to
stand: The ability to come to a standing position from sitting in a chair, wheelchair, or on the side of the bed.
(-Helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes activity. Helper assists only prior to or following the
activity.) Record review of Resident #1's comprehensive care plan, dated [DATE] and revised [DATE],
indicated he had an ADL self-care performance deficit r/t Mild Cognitive Impairment, Metabolic
Encephalopathy. Goal: Resident #1 would express satisfaction with type of activities and level of activity
involvement when asked through the review date. Interventions included: TRANSFER: The resident
requires set up to touching assistance with transfers X 1 staff. Record review of Resident #1's
comprehensive care plan, dated [DATE] and revised on [DATE], indicated he had had an actual fall with no
injury r/t Unsteady gait. [DATE] - fell attempting to self-transfer, no injury noted. [DATE] - Fell attempting to
self-transfer to toilet, no injuries noted. [DATE] - slid out of bed, no injuries noted. [DATE] -fall at beside with
abrasion to left pinky knuckle: ST protocol. [DATE] Witnessed fall with no injury. [DATE] fall in room no
injuries noted. [DATE] Fall in restroom, bruising to left elbow, skin intact. [DATE] Fall in room, laceration to
back of head.

the water pitcher down and ran to Resident #1's room and was trying to ask him what happened. She
stated Resident #1 was alert and responded correctly to her questions. She stated she turned and
immediately called for the nurse and got the nurse to come check on the resident. She stated the nurse ran
to the resident's room. She stated as the nurse was checking the resident out, she noticed there was a lot
of blood by the bed and Resident #1 was over by the doorway. She stated she stayed in the room with
resident while the nurse went and called 911 and resident went to the hospital. She stated resident stayed
on the floor until the ambulance came and he stayed alert and responsive through the whole thing. She
stated resident told her he fell over by the bed and slid himself over by the door. She stated resident told her
he could not recall what he was doing or how he fell. She stated she did not understand how he got over by
the door but when the ambulance got there, resident stood up and got on the stretcher. She stated she
never heard any loud noise or heard anything at all that would have made her think someone had fallen. In
an interview on [DATE] at 9:17 AM, the DON stated she found the paperwork of the area where Resident
#1 had his admission subarachnoid hemorrhage and it was in the medial left frontal subarachnoid space.
Observed Resident #1's hospital paperwork from his admission in 2019 with this information which
reflected tiny subarachnoid hemorrhage and it was in the medial left frontal subarachnoid space. She stated
the resident's diagnosis at the hospital yesterday was a trace subarachnoid hemorrhage of the anterior
interhemispheric fissure (a hypodense structure broader than the falx with a zigzag configuration due to
medial frontal sulci). In an interview on [DATE] at 11:38 AM, LVN A stated she had worked in the facility thru
an agency and she had been in and out with them for a while. She stated she had been in-serviced on
abuse and neglect, and she had done the electronic training for falls/fall prevention, rounding, and resident
rights. She stated if a resident fell she would check on the resident and assess them to decide on what she
had to do. She stated she wanted to make sure the resident was safe first. She stated then she would do
the full assessment and send them to the hospital or treat any injuries if needed, and then she would get
them up if able. She stated some of the fall precautions used in the facility were really good lighting,
reiterating to residents to call for help, increased monitoring for those that are fall risks, and assisting
residents as needed. She stated she made rounds on her residents a lot, she would say every 30 minutes
to an hour. She stated staffing was good. She stated she felt as though she could meet the needs of her
residents. She stated in the incident which involved Resident #1, she had not been down the hall for about

B got her and she ran down to the resident's room and Resident #1 was on the floor. She stated she
assessed the resident and found that he had bleeding from his head, but he could not tell her what
happened. She stated she had some gloves and gauze on her and she placed the gauze on the resident's
head where he had a cut. She stated she asked the CNA to stay with resident while she called 911 and
after calling them, she went back to resident's room. She stated she then saw resident's remote was
hanging off the bed with blood on it and there was blood on the ground by the head of the bed. She stated

day. She stated staffing was good. She stated she felt as though she could meet the needs of her residents.
She stated in the incident which involved Resident #1, she was not here but was made aware he had fallen
when she got to work. She stated the resident tried to do things on his own all the time and she constantly
reminded him to call for help but he did not listen. In an interview on [DATE] at 12:29 PM, FM stated she
had no concerns with the facility at all. She stated she was aware of the fall Resident #1 had yesterday
morning. She stated she felt the facility was doing all they could to prevent falls and they were assisting him
with everything, he is just a hard headed man and won't listen to anybody. She stated he had a history of
getting up by himself and he was very impatient and did not want to wait on anyone to come help him so he
just did not push the call light. She stated she was at the hospital the whole time with Resident #1 and he
could not remember how he fell. She stated he thought he was in another town with a deceased friend so
she was not sure if he was walking in his sleep or what. She stated he worked in this other town for a long
time. She stated he had no history of walking in his sleep and she had no concerns for his care at the
facility. She stated the facility had put the fall mat by resident's bed several times and resident threw a fit
about it so they removed it. She stated resident said he could not get his wheelchair close to the bed with
the mat there. She stated the staff constantly reminded him and warned him all the time about falling and
she had heard them do that many times when she was visiting. In an interview on [DATE] at 1:08 PM, the
DON stated she was in-servicing staff regularly on abuse and neglect, rounding, falls/fall prevention, and
resident rights. She stated if a resident fell, the CNA should get the nurse and the nurse should assess the
resident immediately and depending on if there were injuries or not that would determine what they did
next. She stated the staff may need to use the lift or multiple staff to get them up, may need to send to the
hospital, notify the doctor and get orders, neuros for unwitnessed fall, and inform the family. She stated
some of the fall precautions used in the facility were low beds, fall mats, decreased clutter, night lights built
into rooms, and grippy socks if the resident will wear them. She stated staff should be rounding on their
residents every 2 hours at minimum. She stated staffing was good and they used agency as needed. She
stated she felt as though the staff could meet the needs of their residents. She stated Resident #1 was alert
and oriented and was able to make his own decisions. She stated resident could move his bed up and
down. She stated resident had refused fall mats because it impeded his wheelchair mobility in his room.
She stated they have offered Resident #1 fall mats several times and she could not remember how many
times off the top of her head. She stated they would continue to try to keep encouraging him to keep the fall
mat. She stated the staff made sure every residents' bed was in a low position on nightly rounds. She
stated resident had grippy socks in his room and he refused to wear those also. She stated resident has
had interventions in place and some of the interventions had recently been resolved from the care plan but
were replaced yesterday. She stated her expectations for residents that were a fall risk were to make sure
they were safe, frequent checks, at least required 2 hour checks, and for staff to follow the interventions put
in place such as fall mats. She stated for fall risk residents she would have expected to decrease their falls
and increase their safety. She stated she was aware that falls were going to happen but to decrease the
severity of the outcomes of the falls would have been her expectation. She stated stricter interventions may
have assisted with decreasing the outcomes of falls. In an interview on [DATE] at 2:26 PM, the MD stated
he had no concerns for the facility for what they have done to try and prevent falls for the residents. He
stated Resident #1 was a stubborn man and he kept transferring without calling for help. He stated the
facility had a fall mat in place, resident's bed by the wall and constantly gave reminders to resident to call
for help when needed. He

stated the facility only had 1 fall with a major injury in the past year that had already been investigated. He
stated any head injury with a bleed could have been serious and Resident #1's was pretty tiny he believed.
He stated resident had a subarachnoid hemorrhage when he first admitted but he believed that would have
been healed up by now. He stated it seemed like resident had fallen out of bed and hit his head. He stated
he did not feel like the facility could have done anything differently to prevent the fall and the resident
seemed to manage himself well. In an interview on [DATE] at 5:06 PM, the ADM stated she was
in-servicing staff regularly on abuse and neglect, rounding, falls/fall prevention, and resident rights. She
stated if a resident fell, the CNA should get the nurse, and the nurse should go right away and assess the
resident for any injuries from head to toe. She stated if there was an injury the nurse should call 911, inform
the doctor and family, and check neuros if needed. She stated if they were able to get the resident up, they
would do that also and notify her and the DON. She stated some of the fall precautions used in the facility
were fall mats, low beds, call light, and antilock brakes for the wheelchairs. She stated staff should be
rounding on their residents every 2 hours at least. She stated staffing was good and they used agency as
needed. She stated she felt as though the staff could meet the needs of their residents. She stated for fall
risk residents she would expect for the resident to feel safe, have decreased falls, and have a decreased
severity of injuries for falls that may occur, and she feels it is their responsibility to make sure that happens.
Record review of undated facility form titled Preventing Falls Policy reflected: RESPONSIBILITY: Licensed
Nurse and Nurse Aide. PURPOSE: To create a safe environment for the resident. PROCEDURE: 1.
