by:
Based on interview and record reviews, the
facility failed to timely report an injury of
unkown source, for one of 35 sampled
residents, (Resident 1), who was found
unresponsive on the floor, face down, lying in a
pool of blood, which was oozing from her
forehead and resulted in death, to the State
Agency, and to thoroughly investigate the
injury. The State Survey agency recieved the
report report 12 days later after the incident
had occured. This resulted in a delay in
ascertaining what caused the resident's injury
and placed other residents at risk for harm.

visit was made to the facility to investigate an
incident involving Resident 1, who was found
on the floor, face down, next to the corner of

stated the police department was already
notified, and the facility was still conducting its

death was known because resident fell and hit
her head at the corner of the night stand next to
her bed and died. When a copy of the facility's

after 911 was called, LVN 2 came back to the
room and stayed with the resident so he could

3. Ensure their CPR training was not contrary
to American Heart Association (AHA) CPR
guidelines by advising unlicensed staff not to

unresponsive, and
4. Ensure CNA 1, CNA 2, CNA 3, CNA 4 and

gasping for breath, no definite pulse felt within
10 seconds, the instructions were to send
someone for help and to begin CPR

On 6/14/2017 at 3 : 25 p. m., in an interview
with the director of nursing, she stated if the
resident was found with a change of condition,
the staff should have checked the vital signs; if
the resident was not breathing, staff should
have performed CPR and administered
oxygen.
The facility policy and procedure revised April
2011 and titled " Emergency Procedure Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation" indicated CPR
is immediately initiated in cases of recognized
cardiac and or pulmonary arrest until medical
emergency personnel are available to take over
the resuscitation efforts. The first certified CPR
staff to arrive and find a resident unresponsive
and breathless and pusleless will identify
whether there is cardiopulmonary or respiratory
arrest by shaking the person and calling his or
her name. Respond to the resident immediately
and send available staff to call 911, and return
for help. The policy does include the most
recent changes from the American Heart
Association ( C-A-B- chest compressions,
airway, breathing).
According to the American Heart Association
Adult Basic Life Support for Healthcare
Providers Manual dated 2016, when the
resident is unresponsive with no breathing or
no normal breathing, the first step is to check
for alertness, Start compressions, check airway
check breathing, check pulse, shout for
help/Activate emergency response system.
Procedures include to place hand on lower half
of the sternum (breast chest area); give 30

Based on observation, interview and records
reviews, the facility failed to provide adequate
supervision and to ensure the environment was
free of accident hazards in order to minimize
the injuries when a fall occured, resulting in
laceration (a deep cut or tear in skin or flesh) to
the forehead with massive amount of blood
loss for one of 35 sampled residents (1). The
paramedics (provide advanced emergency
medical care) upon arrival, pronounced the
resident had expired.
The facility failed to:
1. Ensure Resident 1's siderail was up to
prevent a fall while resident was in bed,
2. Ensure Resident 1's over the bed table and
the night stand was not placed close to the bed
to prevent accidents,
3. Ensure plan of care developed for at risk for
falls/injury related to impaired cognition, poor
balance and poor safety awareness /
judgement was specific about the frequency of
visual observation of the resident,
4. Ensure to implement its own policy and
procedures for fall prevention and management
program that included all residents'
environment shall remain as free of accident
hazard as possible and all residents shall
receive adequate supervision and assistive to
prevent accidents.
These violations resulted in Resident 1's fall
from bed to the floor. The resident sustained
laceration to the forehead measuring
approximately 3 by 3 centimeters (cm) that
caused pain, bleeding and eventually resulted
in her death.

wheels that were not locked when pushed to
the side. The call light was not within an easy
reach of anyone lying in bed and it was tied
down to bed B. During an interview with the
director of nursing (DON) stated the resident
might had fallen out of bed in her sleep since
the right upper side rail was in an upright
position. The DON stated the resident had
poor balance and when reaching the over bed
table, the table might had moved because the
wheels were broken, causing her to slip and
fall. When asked how often does the staff
monitor or do rounds, DON stated rounds are
made every two hours. The DON further stated
the resident fall should have been prevented if
the night staff did rounds every two hours per
their policy titled "Routine Rounds".

Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN 1) stated
Resident 1's goal that addressed the plan of
care for falls was revised after the first fall on
2/20/2016. However, he stated the nursing
intervention for the fall care plan was not

stated the right siderail should have been
raised to prevent the resident from falling out of
bed.
