Inspection Findings
providing care to R1 in R1's room and stated, On 11/27/25 around dinner time, I was assisting (V5 CNA) with a (mechanical lift) transfer from (R1's) bed to (R1's) recliner. (V5) was the only CNA available to help with (R1's) transfer, so I helped (V5). I attached the two top loops onto the mechanical lift and (V5) attached the bottom loops.
When we were transferring (R1) from the bed, we were almost done and ready to place (R1) into the recliner, and (R1) slipped out of the sling and fell on buttocks onto the floor. We realized that the sling was not properly placed between (R1's) legs and that caused (R1) to slip onto the floor. I am not a CNA, and I did not have any training with the mechanical lift, I provide private duty general care for (R1). I was told that I should not help with transferring (R1) because I am not trained.
They always used to use just one CNA, so I would help them.
Now they have to use two Facility CNAs. I have been (R1's) private caregiver for over two years, so I rode with (R1) to the hospital, and we were back to the Facility by about 8:00 pm. (R1) did not have any injuries except a small little minor scratch on (R1's) left ear from it hitting the side of the lift.On 1/29/26 at 12:04 pm, V5 (CNA) stated, My other co-worker had gone to lunch, so (V7 R1's Private Caregiver) assisted me with the mechanical lift transfer. I am a fairly new CNA and (R1) had a different kind of sling that I was not familiar with. I did not have the loops placed correctly between (R1's) legs and the sling slipped and caused (R1) to slip onto the floor. I did get counseled about the fall and they did educate me on how to use the mechanical lifts correctly.On 1/29/26, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, On 11/27/25, (V5 CNA) was using a mechanical lift to transfer (R1) from the bed to the recliner. (V7 R1's Private Caregiver) should not have been helping with the mechanical lift transfer because (V7) is not a Facility employee and had not been trained on our mechanical lifts. I counseled (V5) on proper use of the mechanical lift and the placement of the sling. We now make sure to use two of our own CNAs for mechanical lift transfers.
