Based on interview and record review, the
facility failed to ensure, residents, assessed at
risk for falls, did not have a fall, for one of three
sampled residents (Resident 1).
The facility failed to:
1. Ensure a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA 3)
did not leave Resident 1 unsupervised when
Resident 1 was sitting at the edge of the bed.
2. Ensure CNA 3 followed the facility's policy
and procedure (P&P) titled "Answering the Call
Light" which indicated to call another staff for
help by using the call light for assistance. CNA
3 left Resident 1 sitting at the edge of her bed
unattended and went to the resident's restroom
to get some gloves.
3. Ensure staff followed Resident 1's care plan
titled "Resident at risk for fall related to poor
safety awareness, cognitive (ability to think,
understand, learn, and remember) loss, and
visual limitation which indicated staff will assist
Resident 1 getting in and out of bed, and
perform frequent visual checks.
The deficient practices resulted in an
unavoidable fall on 5/4/2024 and Resident 1
sustained a right inferior pubic ramus fracture
(crack or break in the pelvis [basin-shaped
complex of bones that connect the trunk and
the legs]). Resident 1 was hospitalized at the
General Acute Care hospital (GACH) for
orthopedic ([ortho] field of medicine specialize
in injuries of the muscles, bones, joints,
ligaments, and tendons) evaluation and
management from 5/4/2024 and discharged
back to the facility on 5/6/2024.

Resident 1's roommate witnessed the fall and
stated Resident 1 was sitting at the edge of the
bed, reached to her walker with one hand and
when Resident 1 grabbed the walker, she lost
her balance and fell backwards.
A review of Resident 1's GACH History and
Physical indicated Resident 1's Computed
Tomography ([CT] an imaging test used to
detect internal injuries) of the chest, abdomen,
and pelvis on 5/4/2024 at 7:27 p.m. indicated a
right inferior pubic ramus fracture.
A review of Resident 1's GACH report titled
"Medicine for Discharge Summary under 48

was admitted for further orthopedic ([ortho] field
of medicine specialize in injuries of the
muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons)
evaluation and management from 5/4/2024 and
discharged back to the facility on 5/6/2024. The
report indicated based on Resident 1's imaging
results, the ortho did not recommend surgical
intervention, the resident's pubic rami fracture
will be treated conservatively. The report
indicated recommendations including
weightbearing (amount of weight a resident put
on an injured body part) as tolerated to right
lower extremity, elevate and ice right hip as
needed, always use assistive devices with
ambulation, Lovenox (medication to prevent
blood clots), for 2 weeks after discharge, and
follow-up with ortho as outpatient in 3 to 4
weeks, for repeat imaging and to discuss
advancing weight bearing.
