Based on observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to ensure a resident did not fall from a mechanical lift during a transfer and failed to inspect the facility's mechanical lifts and slings as recommended by the manufacturer for 1 (#80) of 2 sampled residents reviewed for accident hazards The DON identified 21 residents who were routinely transferred by use of a mechanical lift. Findings: On 06/25/25 at 4:00 p.m., a mechanical lift sling the administrator identified as the one used with Res #80 when they slid out onto the floor on 06/16/25, was inspected by this surveyor. One of the blue colored loops on the sling had a cut or tear approximately ¾ inches in length from the edge and was approximately half the total width of the loop. Along the edges of the cut/tear, the material was evenly frayed with no loose fibers. There was no discoloration or other wear around the cut/tear. The remainder of the sling showed no signs of damage or wear. On 06/27/25 at 8:52 a.m., a visual and hands-on inspection of the facility's four mechanical lifts (including the one identified by the administrator as the one used when Res #80 fell) was completed by this surveyor. Each was clean, showed no signs of exterior damage, and did operate without any concerning noises or movements. An operator's manual for the brand of mechanical lifts the facility used, dated 12/2021, showed the slings used with the mechanical lifts must be inspected by a nurse or rehabilitation staff monthly for damage and excessive wear. The manual showed a permanent record of the monthly inspections should be kept by the facility and an inspection form was in the operator's manual. A facility policy titled Environmental Services Policy and Procedure, dated 02/20/24, read in part, BVC environmental team members will ensure that all necessary equipment is in working order and all necessary supplies are on hand. An admission MDS, dated [DATE], showed in Section C Res #80 had a BIMS score of 14 which indicated the resident's cognition was not impaired. The assessment showed in Section GG the resident was dependent on staff for transfers with the staff supplying all of the physical effort. A hospital imaging report, dated 06/16/25 at 11:41 a.m., showed Res #80 had a CT scan (a medical imaging procedure uses X-rays and computer technology to create detailed images of the body) performed. The report showed in the findings that the resident had a small subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding between the brain and the tissue that surround it). A progress note, dated 06/16/25 at 3:15 p.m., showed that on that date, Res #80 had been observed by LPN #1 to have been in a mechanical lift sling with their head laying on the leg of the lift and their legs still in the sling which was lifted above the floor. The note further described the sling having been broken on the upper right side. The note further showed the resident was transferred by ambulance to a hospital. A progress note, dated 06/17/25 at 11:34 a.m., showed LPN #3 had spoken to an ICU nurse at the hospital where Res #80 had been transferred. The note showed LPN #3 was told by the hospital ICU nurse Res #80 had a small brain bleed. On 06/24/25 at 10:00 a.m., Res #80 was asked if they had fallen recently. The resident stated they had fallen from a mechanical lift but could not recall the exact date. Res #80 was asked to describe the details of the fall. The resident stated they could not recall any details of the fall other than it was from a mechanical lift. Res #80 was asked what they were wearing. The resident stated they could not recall. Res #80 was asked to describe the staff's performance during that incident. The resident replied the staff had done a good job getting them to a hospital. Res #80 stated they were satisfied with their care and felt safe at the facility. On 06/25/25 at 3:39 p.m., the administrator stated the two CNA's who had been operating the mechanical lift when Res #80 had fallen were CNA #3 and CNA #4. The administrator stated the staff member who was responsible for ensuring the mechanical lift slings were in good condition and trained the staff on the use of the mechanical lifts was CNA #1. The administrator was asked about CNA #1's training related to the mechanical lifts. The administrator stated CNA #1 had read the operator's manual before instructing other staff. On 06/25/25 at 3:40 p.m., the DON stated they had observed and checked off on CNA #1's proficiency in the use of the lifts. On 06/27/25 at 9:47 a.m., CNA #4 was asked to describe what had occurred the day Res #80 had fallen during the transfer with the mechanical lift on 04/16/25. The CNA stated before using the sling, they had inspected it and had not seen the broken loop. CNA #4 stated when they placed the sling on the lift, they used the blue loops for the head and green loops for the bottom. The CNA stated once the resident was inside the sling, they lifted the resident from the bed and moved the lift to a position where they could lower the resident into a chair. CNA #4 stated it was at that time the resident had slid from the sling onto the floor. CNA #4 stated they then went to alert LPN #1 about the fall. The CNA stated the resident had been wearing pajamas made from very slick material and believed that was why the resident slid out of the sling. On 06/27/25 at 10:13 a.m., LPN #1 was asked to describe the events of Res #80's fall on 06/16/25. The LPN stated they had been called to Res #80's room by CNA #4 and when they entered, they observed Res #80 with their head on the ground and feet in the sling of the mechanical lift. LPN #1 stated when they entered the room, the sling was not connected to the lift on the end where the resident's head would been. The LPN stated they had assessed the resident and facilitated their transfer to a hospital. LPN #1 stated the resident was conscious during the time they were in the room. LPN #1 stated the hospital had found Res #80 had a brain bleed and the resident was in the ICU for a few days before returning to the facility. On 06/27/25 at 10:24 a.m., CNA #3 was asked to describe the events around Res #80 fall on 06/16/25. The CNA stated they had assisted CNA #4 transfer Res #80 from their bed to a chair. CNA #3 stated they were at the resident's feet and CNA #4 was on the resident's left side with one hand on the sling next to the resident's head and their other hand on the controls of the lift. The CNA stated the blue loops of the sling where the resident's head was and green loops where their feet were. CNA #3 stated when they maneuvered the lift from the bed toward the chair, they heard a popping sound and observed the resident slide from the sling headfirst. The CNA stated the resident's head ended up on the floor and their feet remained in the sling. CNA #3 stated the blue loop on the sling where CNA #4 had been holding it was found to have a break. CNA #3 was asked if any of the sling loops had come free of the lift. The CNA stated all the loops had remained attached to the lift when the resident had slid out of the sling. On 06/27/25 at 10:51 a.m., the maintenance supervisor stated Maintenance #1 was supposed to do monthly checks on the mechanical lifts, but they were not done in April 2025 or May 2025. On 06/27/25 at 11:00 a.m., Maintenance #1 was asked to describe their care of the mechanical lifts and slings. They stated there was a time when all of the mechanical lifts they used were rented and they believed they were not supposed to inspect those. Maintenance #1 stated they guess they were wrong about that. Maintenance #1 stated they did not inspect the mechanical lifts in April 2025 and May 2025 because they were rentals. They stated they knew the monthly inspections of the mechanical lifts and the slings were recommended by the manufacturer. Maintenance #1 stated they did not inspect the slings which were done by the nurses. They stated the sling used when Res #80 fell from the mechanical lift had been taken out of service that day and removed from the building. On 06/27/25 at 11:19 a.m., CNA #1 stated they had conducted inspections of the mechanical lift slings during the past year, but they had never documented those inspections. CNA #1 stated there was no documentation of sling inspections before June 2025.

Immediate Jeopardy Removed On 12/08/10 at 2:00 p.m., the Immediate Jeopardy was removed, although the deficient practice remained at no actual harm with potential for more than minimal harm for more than a very limited number of residents. It was observed the facility had removed all unpasteurized eggs from the facility and had obtained pasteurized whole shell eggs to use for fried and poached eggs. Inservice related to the safe cooking and holding temperatures of eggs was completed by all dietary staff. Monitoring tools were put in place for each resident who had been served soft cooked unpasteurized eggs. The facility's policy and procedure was amended to ensure only pasteurized whole shell eggs would be purchased. On 12/09/10 at 1:30 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) regarding the trayline temperature record having documentation of the soft cooked poached eggs as 197 degrees Fahrenheit. The CDM stated he had determined the chef had taken the temperature of the egg white instead of the egg yolk. The CDM stated the egg white was thin and the thermometer probe probably touched the bottom of the cooking pan.
