Record review of an all-staff in-service dated 04/30/25 revealed a fall is signified as any break in plane regardless of where the patient lands. If a resident fall occurred it must be immediately reported to the charge nurse so they can assess resident and situation and determine if resident is safe to move or transfer, then incident report must be completed by charge nurse.
Record review of the facility's Fall, and Fall Risk, Managing Policy, revised March 2018, revealed Unless there is evidence suggesting otherwise, when a resident is found on the floor, a fall is considered to have occurred.
The staff will implement a fall prevention plan to reduce the specific risk factors of falls for each resident at risk or with a history of falls.

SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES
jeopardy to resident health or safety
CNA-M stated she had been in-serviced regarding monitoring and redirecting residents, fall policies and protocols, abuse and neglect, documenting and reporting. In an interview 08/19/125 at 10:55 AM, LVN-Q stated she had been in-serviced regarding monitoring and redirecting residents, fall policies and protocols, abuse and neglect, documenting and reporting.
She stated most of the residents were easily redirected with things such as activities, snacks, television, radio, etc.
She stated there was always someone watching the halls. If both CNAs had to be in a room providing care, the nurse was monitoring the halls, and if the nurse had to step away from the locked unit, the ADON or another nurse would monitor the unit until the nurse returns. In an observation on 08/19/25 at 1:30 PM it was revealed many of the residents on the locked unit were in the dining/common room doing activities with 1 staff from activities.
There were 5 residents noted to be wandering in the hallways, but CNA's were monitoring and redirecting them as needed, and the charge nurse was seated at the nurse's station across from the living area where some residents were seated watching television. In an interview on 08/19/25 at 1:45 PM the DON stated there were always 2 CNAs and a nurse on the locked unit, and there was always at least one of the CNAs or nurses in the hallways observing at all times. If the two CNAs were busy providing patient care, the LVN steps forward, and if the LVN had to step off the locked unit, the ADON or another nurse would cover until they return.
The DON stated most of the residents on the locked unit only needed one staff to assist with incontinent or patient care, so it rarely required both CNA's to be in a room together and off the hall at the same time, but if it did, they just notify the charge nurse, and the charge nurse monitored the halls until the CNAs returned.
The DON stated staff had been in-serviced regarding monitoring and redirecting residents, fall policies and protocols, abuse and neglect, documenting and reporting. In an interview on 08/19/25 at 1:45 PM the Administrator stated there was always 2 CNAs and a nurse on the locked unit, and the residents were free to move around the locked unit as they pleased. He stated he would perform random spot checks which would always reveal one of the CNAs or nurses in the hallways observing any residents who may be wandering.
The Administrator stated if both CNAs were busy performing patient care, then the charge nurse steps forward to monitor the halls. In an interview on 08/20/25 at 10:55 AM, LVN-R stated there were always at least two CNAs and the charge nurse on the locked unit, and many times during the day there were others such as the person from activities, or the DON or ADON rounding. He stated someone was always watching the hall, and if both CNAs must be in a room providing care, he was the one on the hall monitoring for residents who wander. He stated he had been in-serviced regarding monitoring and redirecting residents, fall policies and protocols, abuse and neglect, documenting and reporting.
The Administrator was informed the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 08/21/25 at 4:35 PM.
The facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and a severity level of potential for more than minimal harm due to the facility's need to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems which were put into place.
