The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to ensure the residents’ environment remained free of accident hazards for [two residents] reviewed for accidents.” Specifically, “the facility failed to provide a safe environment for [a resident], who fell on the sidewalk leading to the smoking area and suffered injuries and pain.”
The nursing home failed to assess, “communicate and implement interventions to prevent accidents and hazards to reduce the potential for further falls for [this resident].” The nursing home failed to reassess the resident “for safe smoking after observations of unsafe smoking practices and ensure [another resident] was evaluated after a fall by physical therapy and provided restorative services to develop and implement interventions to prevent additional falls.”
The investigation results indicated that the nursing home’s failure “to identify accident hazards, conduct a thorough post-fall and assessments, and implement interventions for the resident” failed to follow the facility’s policies and procedures.
The survey team interviewed the resident by telephone who stated on the day of his fall, August 7, 2018, “he went to the facility smoking area, and his right foot dropped into a depression from the sidewalk to a gravel surface.” The resident “lost his step and fell.”
The resident said his body “turned to the right, then it turned again, and he fell on his left side. He said he hit the upper left back of his head on an outdoor ashtray. He said he fell hard on the concrete sidewalk and hit his head there too.” The resident indicated that he felt “extremely disoriented when they were lifting them off the ground [and] as he looked around, he saw a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).”
The resident indicated that “he lost a sense of why he was outside.” The resident’s blood pressure dropped “while he was sitting in a chair they put him in.” The nursing staff walked him back to his room and laid him in his bed. He was unable to identify the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA).
The resident indicated that “he told one of the nurses of the injuries and pain he had.” The resident stated he wanted to see a doctor, but “the nurse did not respond to his request to see a doctor.”
