F-F600.
Findings:
A review of Resident 1's Admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 1 on 7/9/2021 with diagnoses including parkinsonism, Alzheimer's disease (a brain disorder affecting memory and thinking skills that worsens over time), dementia (loss of thinking or remembering affecting daily life), and age-related osteoporosis (loss of bone mass with increasing risk for bone breakage).
A review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a standardized assessment and care screening tool), dated 5/14/2024, indicated that Resident 1's cognitive skills (ability to think and process information) for daily decision-making tasks were severely impaired.
The MDS indicated Resident 1 was dependent (helper does ALL the effort and resident does none of the effort to complete the activity or the assistance of two or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) for eating, oral hygiene (cleaning teeth), toileting hygiene, shower or bathing, upper and lower body dressing, putting on or removing footwear, and personal hygiene needs (combing hair and washing or drying face or hands).
A review of Resident 1's record titled, Progress Notes, dated 6/1/2024 at 12:10 p.m., indicated that Resident 1's assigned CNA (CNA 1) was about to weigh Resident 1 with a lift machine (mechanical lift, a lift device with a weighing scale designed to lift and transfer patients from a bed to a wheelchair or vice versa). CNA 1 then left Resident 1 unattended to ask for assistance from another staff member (unidentified). CNA 1 was then quoted as stating, I was almost at the door when I heard a loud sound. I turned my back, opened the curtain and I saw my resident (Resident 1) on the floor on the legs of the lifting machine.
The record indicated CNA 1 noted blood around Resident 1's head.
