- Failure to Ensure the Nursing Home Area Remained Free of Accident Hazards and Risks and Provides Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F323 date January 28, 2017
State investigators determined the nursing home "failed to transfer a resident from the wheelchair to a shower chair based on the resident’s Care Plan, [that requires] a mechanical lift using two persons.” The safety interventions were based on “the resident’s mobility assessment requiring a medical lift.”
The deficient practice by the nursing staff “resulted in the resident sustaining a fracture of her right femur. After the fall, the resident was manually transferred back into the wheelchair and then manually back into bed.”
The survey team reviewed the facility’s policy for falls. The policy states: “if the resident is not being sent to the emergency room, then the resident must be gotten off the floor utilizing a total lift (no exceptions).”
Medical Records revealed that the resident “was at risk for falls related to decreased mobility, weakness, dementia, and hemiparesis from cerebrovascular accident (CVA).” Interventions, dated December 8, 2018, included to use two people at a mechanical lift when getting the resident out of bed.
A Nursing Note indicated that a nurse had “walked in the shower room to check on the Nursing Assistant [and found the Nursing Assistant] hanging on to the resident who was sliding out of the wheelchair. The wheelchair had a fleece blanket and a total lift sling was under her.”
Documentation indicates that the resident “was sliding out of the chair.” Two Nurse Aides sat the resident “on the floor that assisted her to the chair.” The document indicates that there were predisposing environmental factors including a wet floor and physiological factors and that the resident was incontinent and confused.”
An x-ray revealed “a displaced distal femoral fracture of the right leg.”
