- 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 16, 2016
The state investigators determined that “the facility failed to ensure assistance devices were being utilized to decrease the risk of accidents.” The investigation involved one resident “reviewed for falls.”
Specifically, the staff “did not place an alarm on [the resident’s] wheelchair while she was up in her wheelchair as specified in the plan of care. This deficient practice could affect fifteen residents with a wheelchair alarm by placing them at risk for avoidable accidents and decreased response time during a fall due to a lack of the alarm sounding.”
The survey team reviewed the facility’s incident reports that revealed that the resident “had seven falls from her wheelchair” between October 1, 2016, on October 24, 2016. The resident’s Care Plan with revision dates revealed the falls were addressed for the resident.
An observation was made of the resident “while sitting behind the nurse’s station in her wheelchair without a chair alarm and no staff present behind the nurse’s station. Continued observations revealed [the resident] was wheeled by staff from the nurse’s station to the dining room for breakfast at 7:48 AM.”
Between 8:14 AM and 8:25 AM on that day, the resident “was eating her meal at the dining room table in her wheelchair without a chair alarm.” Three minutes later, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) was assisting the resident “with toileting in the resident’s bathroom, and upon exiting the resident’s room, the chair alarm was not observed in place.”
The CNA providing the resident care verified that the resident’s “chair alarm was not in place [before] assisting her to the restroom and stated that the chair alarm should have been placed on the wheelchair.”
The Director of Nursing revealed that the facility “did not require an order for [a chair alarm and stated that the resident’s] wheelchair alarm should not have been placed.” The facility provided documentation dated November 3, 2016, revealing that “fifteen residents used wheelchair alarm.”
