- Failure to Ensure the Nursing Home Area Remained Free of Accident Hazards and Risks and Provides Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F323 date November 17, 2017
The state investigators determined that “the facility failed to provide assistance for a resident identified as needing extensive assist for toileting, resulting in a fall.” The surveyors conducting an initial tour of the facility identified a resident “as having a fall from a bed on November 15, 2017, at 5:40 AM.”
The investigators reviewed the resident’s SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, and Response) documented on the day of the fall when the resident was found near the bed by a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Assessments determined that the resident suffered from weakness and unsteady gait and needed two-person assist for transfers and ambulation and “has intermittent confusion and at times.”
The documentation revealed that the resident wanted to use the bathroom and could not wait for the staff to assist her. At that time, “she slid off the foot of the bed to the floor and landed on her buttocks. She was sitting upright with her back against the bed with her foot on the pillow on the floor.”
The resident indicated that at 4:45 AM that morning, she had turned on her call light and was informed that “someone would be right with her.” She waited one hour until 5:45 AM and “slid herself off the bed [indicating that] she was already wet when the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) finally came in to assist her.”
The resident indicated that “the nurse told her from the hallway that someone would be in, and that did not happen for another twenty minutes.” The surveyors reviewed the facility Continence Log for the resident given to them by the Assistant Director of Nursing that indicated the resident “had three incidents of incontinence” over seven days between November 10, 2017, and November 17, 2017.
