- Failure to Respond Appropriately to All Alleged Violations – citation #F610 date March 7, 2019
The state investigators determined that the “facility did not ensure all alleged violations involving mistreatment, neglect, or abuse were thoroughly investigated or reported timely.” Specifically, one resident “had a fall resulting in a fracture [and the] facility did not identify the resident’s Care Plan was not followed and the incident was not reported to the New York State Department of Health as required.”
The investigation involved a severely, cognitively impaired resident who “requires extensive assistance from staffed for bed mobility and transfers.” The resident’s Comprehensive Care Plan and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Care Guide dated February 1, 2019, documented that the resident “was at risk for falls related to weakness, history of falls, and the inability to maintain positioning. Interventions included non-skid socks, and his bed was to be in the lowest position with fall mats on both sides of the bed.”
The documentation revealed that “he was at risk for impaired skin integrity and was to be turned and repositioned every two hours and required assistance from staff with toileting needs.” A review of the Progress Note dated February 11, 2019, at 5:51 AM indicated that the Registered Nurse (RN) “was called to the unit to assess [the resident] after a fall.”
The resident “was lying on his right side with his head next to the foot of the bed. He was assessed, denied pain or discomfort, and no injuries were identified at that time. He was unable to state what happened.”
The report indicated that the resident had been found on the floor in a wet incontinence brief by the CNA, who stated that “she did not know the possible cause of the fall.” However, “the computerized documentation system show that the resident was not toileted all night.” Additionally, the report “did not contain any documentation the resident was checked or toileted from 12:30 AM until 5:15 AM. There was no documentation in the report that the resident was turned and repositioned” during that time.
