The resident was fragile, and I received no explanation from the facility.
Most of the updates were from the hospice provider.
The resident has declined, had weight loss; however, did not meet criteria to continue hospice and was discharged a few months ago from hospice.
Interview on 8/12/25 at 3:10 PM with NA #2 identified she could not recall all the details due to the events occurring a while ago.
She noted that when she arrived to work, she was told by the nurse that Resident #107 had an injury and then she observed the wrapped ankle. NA #2 further noted that the resident required two staff for transfers and conveyed that she would not transfer the resident without assistance.
She further noted that she was not sure why she had not documented who assisted with the transfer and could not recall at the time of the interview who had assisted her.
Additionally, she noted she was made aware that the resident had a fracture but did not know what caused the fracture.
Interview on 8/13/25 at 7:51 AM with the DNS identified that she conducted the investigation into Resident #107's fracture of unknown origin.
She could not recall why she did not ascertain who assisted NA #2 with the transfer because that is a stated question on the investigation form and it would have been important in determining if the transfer had been conducted appropriately or whether there was a chance that the fracture could have occurred during the transfer.
The DNS could not identify whether or not the resident had been transferred appropriately and did not give an explanation of how the fracture to Resident #107's right ankle may have occurred.
The Mechanical Lift policy indicated that there should always be two people to perform the transfer procedure.
One to operate the lift and one person at the resident's feet to guide the resident's lower body during a transfer.
