- Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation date May 3, 2018
According to investigators, “the facility failed to ensure a resident, who requires the assistance of two staff members with the lift transfer, received the necessary assistance.” A review of the resident’s Care Plan dated February 26, 2018 documents that the resident had “potential for falls related to impaired mobility, deconditioning, weakness.”
A Nurse’s Note dated March 10, 2018, at 3:41 PM documented that the resident was complaining of pain on the right side and stated that her ribs were hurting, and it was “hard to breathe due to the pain.” The staff notified the doctor who provided new orders including a chest x-ray.
A subsequent Nurse’s Note documented less than two hours later at 5:30 PM showed that the nurse was summoned to the room by a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) who stated that he had “lifted the resident from the wheelchair to the bed, and heard a ‘pop’ sound, continued transferring the resident to the bed” when the resident started “complaining of pain in the ribs.” The resident told the CNA they had “pain in both the right and left side of the chest, hurt to breathe.”
The nursing staff called the doctor, spoke with a second doctor, obtained a chest x-ray, notified the resident’s daughter and the Assistant Director of Nursing before giving the resident Tylenol for pain. An intervention was added to the resident’s medical records to educate the staff on transferring the resident.
A Nurse’s Note documented at 10:19 PM indicated that the x-ray report showed “no rib fractures seen.” The note indicates “no bruising or discoloration.”
The surveyors interviewed the Director of Nursing and asked, “why a resident might need a two-person assist?” The Director stated that “it was usually done to the resident being unstable on their feet, being large in size, it was easier and [for] resident safety.”
The Director verified that the resident was a two-person assist but that “when the resident had first come in, they used a Hoyer lift all the time, but that was no longer needed.” The Director verified that the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) transferring the resident had not followed safe procedures and that “he should have got another staff member to help.”
