- Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation date June 14, 2018
- Failure to Timely Report Suspected Abuse, Neglect or Mistreatment and Report the Results of the Investigation to Proper Authorities – citation #F609 date August 8, 2018
According to state surveyors, “the facility did not ensure each resident receives adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents.” The deficient practice involved one resident reviewed for falls.”
Documentation revealed that the resident experienced seventeen falls at the facility. For the two falls that were “not investigated, there was only a SBAR (a form used to provide information to the physician). A review of the Care Plan reveals that all post-fall recommended interventions were not included in the care plan.”
The survey team observed the resident which revealed that “all recommended interventions were not in place at times during the survey. Interventions observed to not be in place included anti-rollback device on the wheelchair, front anti-tip bars on the wheelchair and [a touch light system on the] wall by the bathroom.”
The survey team interviewed the resident’s wife who indicated the resident “had experienced falls before admission to the facility was continuing to experience frequent falls.” The wife pointed to a bruise on the resident’s “forehead as being present from a fall, and stated he has a large bruise on his buttocks.”
During the investigation, the surveyors observed the resident lying “in bed with his upper body on the bed in both legs on the floor mat beside the bed. The bed was in a low position. The surveyor immediately informed a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in the dining room who went to [the resident’s] room and positioned his legs back in bed.”
The nursing home “did not report to the State agency three allegations of resident-to-resident abuse.” The investigation found that one resident was “identified to experience dementia without behavioral disturbance.” This resident “is severely cognitively impaired for daily decision-making skills.”
Documentation shows that at 5:25 PM on March 19, 2018, this resident “struck a female resident on the back of the head with the flat of his hand in an unprovoked manner, then grabbed her head by the back of the skull and shook it back and forth” several times.
