CNA #189 responded, we'll get you cleaned up. Resident #22 was then being transferred to her bed and stated, I need to go to the bathroom.

SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES
jeopardy to resident health or safety
OS #230 stated it was fairly hard to dislocate a hip because you had to really twist the leg around somehow to get it to come out. OS #230 stated Resident #22 does have dementia, so she could've had an unwitnessed event which was the cause of the dislocation (however, the exact circumstance of how the dislocation had occurred could not be determined). OS #230 stated people with dementia express their pain in different ways or sometimes can't at all, but it would be a painful injury for most people to have.
Interview on 08/18/25 at 1:20 P.M. with RN #127 revealed she worked with Resident #22 often during the resident's stay in the facility. Resident #22's baseline was confused and did not have a lot of behaviors. RN #127 stated she recalled 07/21/25 and when she came in that morning, nightshift staff were reporting the resident had yelled out in pain all night and pain medication had been administered but did not seem to be effective. RN #127 stated she asked about the right hip and the nurse (LPN #113) had stated she thought it looked aligned to her, but it had taken three staff to get her out of bed (which was not the resident's normal). RN #127 inquired about how therapy went and was told Resident #22 would scream and had to be sat down. RN #127 stated while Resident #22 was sitting in her wheelchair, she was fine and did not have signs of distress.
The only time Resident #22 was transferred during RN #127's shift was to lay her down for the x-ray. RN #127 stated she called the resident's RP and let her know Resident #22 was having pain and did not do well in therapy. RN #127 stated when the x-ray tech was present, she asked her to come to Resident #22's room to see the picture and they were able to tell the right hip was out. RN #127 stated she obtained orders to send Resident #22 to the emergency [TRUNCATED]
