she does not like the sit to stand lift, but there were no transfer issues during V12's shift. On 10/28/25 at 2:42 PM, V15 LPN stated V15 was alerted to a bruise on (Resident R1's) right chest and arm by the CNAs on 9/21/25. V15 stated V15 felt the bruise lined up with the belt on the stand lift that Resident R1 used to transfer. V15 denied any knowledge of any incidents that could have caused Resident R1's bruising. On 10/28/25 between 4:01 PM and 4:43 PM, V27 and V28 CNAs stated they found Resident R1's bruising on the evening of 9/21/25 prior to transferring her to bed, which was not noted when V28 had last cared for Resident R1 the night before. V27 stated something must have happened during the dayshift. V28 described the bruise as purple, almost black, extending from the base of Resident R1's neck down to the bottom of Resident R1's abdomen, across from mid chest to right under arm before the elbow. V27 stated initially Resident R1 was a stand pivot transfer but then Resident R1 started using the sit to stand lift a few weeks prior. V27 stated Resident R1 disliked the stand lift, Resident R1 would tell us that she was hurting and didn't like the lift, and to put Resident R1 down. V27 stated Resident R1 couldn't stand in the lift for very long, so staff had to move Resident R1 quickly. V27 and V28 were not aware of the cause of Resident R1's injury, or any falls or incidents that could have caused Resident R1's injury. On 10/29/25 at 8:55 AM, V21 Memory Care Director stated V21 did not work
on 9/21/25 and received a text message that evening from V15 Licensed practical Nurse reporting Resident R1's bruising. V21 stated no one saw anything happen and staff were unsure what caused the bruising. V21 stated V15 LPN told V21 that the bruise aligned with the stand lift sling, so V21 assumed that was the cause of Resident R1's injury. On 10/29/25 at 1:27 PM, V1 Administrator stated V1 assisted collectively with nurse management for the investigation of Resident R1's 9/21/25 bruising/injury. V1 stated V15 LPN, and the two CNAs were interviewed for this investigation. V1 confirmed no other staff were interviewed. V1 stated the interviewed staff were asked about what happened and how Resident R1 had been that day/evening. V1 stated the staff only talked about Resident R1 in the sling and how she played balloon toss with a pool noodle that afternoon.
V1 was asked to clarify what the staff mentioned about the stand lift sling and V1 stated meaning Resident R1 transferred with the stand lift and sling that day. V1 said there were no reported accidents, injuries, or concerns related to the sling use. V1 confirmed staff were not asked if Resident R1 had any falls/incidents or what caused Resident R1's injury. V1 stated the staff report resident falls. V1 stated V1 reviewed video surveillance footage of Resident R1 on the afternoon of 9/21/25 participating in an activity that involved using a pool noodle to strike a balloon.V1 stated based on this observation, V1 questions if Resident R1's stretching and repetitive arm movements during the activity may have contributed to a vascular injury, such as a tear in an artery, which could potentially explain the bruising observed on Resident R1. V1 confirmed no other video surveillance was reviewed. The facility's Abuse, Neglect, Mistreatment and Misappropriation of Resident Property policy dated 12/23/21 documents the investigation process is used to try to determine the cause of injuries of unknown source and rule out abuse. This policy documents the designated investigator will begin the investigation immediately to implement a root cause investigation and analysis, and the gathered information is given to the administrator. The investigation may include who was involved, resident statements, roommate statements, involved staff and witness statements, a description of the resident's behavior and environment at the time of the incident.

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to safely transfer a resident (Resident R7) resulting in a fall and failed to investigate this fall for one of four residents (Resident R7) reviewed for accidents in the sample list of 10. On 10/27/25 at 10:14 AM, Resident R7 stated Resident R7 had a recent fall while trying to get into bed with staff assistance. Resident R7 stated a gait belt was not used during this transfer. Resident R7's Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE REDACTED] documents Resident R7 as cognitively intact, Resident R7 requires partial/moderate staff assistance for chair/bed transfers, and Resident R7 had two or more falls without injury since the prior assessment. Resident R7's Care Plan dated 8/26/24 documents Resident R7 is at risk for falls, Resident R7 has a transfer restorative program due to weakness and Resident R7 transfers with one assist, gait belt, and grab bar or walker. Resident R7's Endurance-Functional Mobility assessment dated [DATE REDACTED] documents Resident R7 transfers with one assist with use of gait belt, grab bar or walker. Resident R7's Nursing Note dated 9/4/2025 at 8:22 PM documents Resident R7 was being assisted into bed from his wheelchair, Resident R7 let go of the bed rail, Resident R7's knees weakened and Resident R7 was assisted to the floor. Resident R7 did not sustain any injuries. The post fall intervention was to use two assist for transfers in/out of bed. The Accident Investigation/Interview Form dated 9/4/25 documents V19 Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) assisted Resident R7 with transfer from wheelchair to bed, Resident R7 let go of the railing, Resident R7's knees became weak, and Resident R7 was lowered to the floor. This form does not document whether a gait belt was used. There is no documentation that this fall was thoroughly investigated. On 10/27/25 at 1:18 PM, V2 Director of Nursing stated the nurse documented Resident R7's fall in the 9/4/25 nursing note but didn't complete an incident report. V2 confirmed there was no fall investigation packet completed for this fall. On 10/27/25 at 3:09 PM, V19 CNA confirmed V19 assisted Resident R7 during the fall on 9/4/25. In reference to this fall, V19 stated V19 transferred Resident R7 from the bathroom into the wheelchair and V19 was in
the process of transferring Resident R7 into bed. V19 stated Resident R7 went to grab the siderail on his bed, Resident R7 let go with one of his hands to grab his pants while standing, Resident R7 lost his balance and fell. V19 stated at that time Resident R7 was a one assist for transfers. V19 stated V19 did not use a gait belt during this transfer. On 10/28/25 at 3:58 PM, V18 Licensed Practical Nurse confirmed V18 completed Resident R7's Endurance-Functional Mobility assessment dated [DATE REDACTED] and confirmed Resident R7's transfer status at that time was one assist and gait belt. V18 stated staff would also have Resident R7 use the grab bars in his bathroom, on recliner, and on bed, and/or wheeled walker. The facility's undated Managing Falls and Fall Risk policy documents: 1. The staff will implement a resident-centered fall prevention plan to reduce the specific risk factor(s) of falls for each resident at risk or with a history of falls. 1. The staff will monitor and document each resident's response to interventions intended to reduce falling or the risks of falling. 2. If interventions have been successful in preventing falling, staff will continue the interventions or reconsider whether these measures are still needed if a problem that required the intervention (e.g. (for example), dizziness or weakness) has resolved. 3. If the resident continues to fall, staff will re-evaluate the situation and whether it is appropriate to continue or change current interventions. As needed, the attending physician will help the staff reconsider possible causes that may not previously have been identified.
