The resident fell from the total mechanical lift , hit her head on the floor, and sustained a hemorrhage contusion to the right frontal lobe of the brain.”
The investigators reviewed the resident’s Care Plan that stated: “the resident was to be transferred with a total mechanical lift, using a medium sling.” A Progress Note in the clinical records indicated that “at approximately 11:00 AM on January 27, 2018, [the nurse] heard a scream and a loud noise from [the resident’s room].”
The nurse [went] into the room and saw the resident under the total mechanical lift with [their] body across the lift’s legs and [their] head on the floor.” The note said that “the resident was not moved.” The nursing staff called Emergency Medical Services (911) and “the resident was transferred to the hospital.”
The “facility failed to notify the Responsible Party for [a resident] of the resident’s injury.” An Incident Report revealed that “the nurse was called to the resident’s room by the Nursing Assistant, due to a knot and noted with bruising to [the resident’s] right forehead.” The note indicated that “the resident stated she fell this morning , tonight, and three months ago.”
The investigators reviewed the Nursing Notes that revealed: “there was no documentation stating that the Responsible Party was notified of the injury to [the resident’s] forehead.” The investigator spoke to the Responsible Party, who stated that “no one from the facility notified [them] of the injury.”
