Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to establish clear and consistent resident wishes regarding advance directives for one of six residents reviewed resulting in actual harm (Resident CR1). Findings include: Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed Durable Health Care Power of Attorney and Health Care Treatment Instructions (Living Will) for the resident dated [DATE], in which the resident appointed a sister as his health care agent to make decisions on his behalf per terms and conditions described in the document. Further review of the document revealed the terms included the sister was authorized to obtain health information for the resident regardless whether the resident was competent or not, but only at such time the resident was determined incompetent should the agent (sister) be authorized to make health care decisions on the resident's behalf regarding health care treatment which included giving directions to initiate, continue, withhold, or withdraw any or all forms of life-sustaining treatment, or request that a physician responsible for his care issue a do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order, including an out -of -hospital DNR order or a POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment, a document for specific medical orders to be honored by health care workers during a medical crisis). In an interview with the Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 11:30 AM it was revealed Resident CR1's sister who was appointed as the agent in the document above was deceased (no date provided), and there was no evidence the resident ever appointed another individual to act on his behalf should he be deemed incapable, or developed a new living will. Review of Resident CR1s closed record revealed the resident was listed with a diagnosis that included intellectual disabilities as an admitting diagnosis (admitted [DATE]), although there was no evidence in the record to indicate the resident was not capable of making decisions affecting his care or had ever been deemed incapable during his stay at the facility. A quarterly MDS assessment (Minimum Data Set - an assessment completed at periodic intervals of time to assesses resident care needs) completed on [DATE], revealed facility staff assessed the resident as having a BIMS (brief interview for mental status) score of 15, indicating the resident was cognitively intact. A POLST was identified as part of the resident's closed clinical record dated [DATE], in which the resident indicated it was his wish to receive CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, an emergency treatment that is done when someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped). The POLST was signed by Resident CR1 and a nurse practitioner. Review of Resident CR1's physician orders revealed the resident was ordered a DNR on [DATE], which was discontinued on [DATE], and reordered on [DATE], after a hospital leave of absence. A review of a physician's readmission note for Resident CR1 dated [DATE], upon return from a hospital stay listed the resident as having a code status of No Code (no CPR), and that advance directives were discussed. The document does not indicate who the advance directives were discussed with, i.e., if it was the resident himself or family. A Code Status document with the same date of [DATE], was identified for the resident with DNR, and DNI (do not intubate), checked off and the sheet was signed by the physician and the nurse receiving the order. There was no resident or family signature on the form or who determined the DNR/DNI for the resident. The facility was not able to provide evidence to show Resident CR1 was ordered to have CPR administered after the resident completed the POLST indicating desired CPR on [DATE], or if the order was changed from wishing to have CPR between the [DATE], date and the order dated [DATE], as the Director of Nursing indicated in an interview on [DATE], that the facility changed electronic records in [DATE], and any current orders at the time were carried over to the new system, which is why the DNR order for the resident was dated [DATE]. A physician's readmission note dated [DATE], after the resident had another hospital leave noted the resident's code status was No Code, and per record review his code status remains DNR/DNI. The note indicated advance directives were discussed, the patient is a DNR. Again, there was no evidence as to who advance directives were discussed with and if the resident was involved or made the decision. Another Code Status sheet dated [DATE], was completed for Resident CR1, which checked off DNR and DNI for the resident and was signed by the physician and nurse receiving the order, but the form did not indicate any discussion with the resident. Resident CR1 was noted to have a change in condition beginning [DATE], with nausea, progressing to emesis from [DATE] - 7, 2025. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 2:30 PM noted the nurse was called to the resident's room to assess the resident as he was vomiting and cool to touch but alert and speaking. It was noted the nurse was unable to get a blood pressure and the provider was consulted and the decision was made to send the resident to the emergency department. Emergency services were noted as contacted. The note then indicated the resident expired at 2:20 PM as there were no respirations or apical heartrate for one full minute and emergency personnel were updated upon arrival. A physician's death pronouncement note dated [DATE], at 12:11 PM noted the resident expired at the facility on [DATE], noting the resident had worsening status in the afternoon of [DATE], and emergency services were called due to transfer to the emergency department for further evaluation, but the patient was noted by nursing to have agonal breathing, respiratory distress, and became pulseless. It was noted no code blue was called as the patient is known DNR/DNI. There was no evidence to indicate it was Resident CR1's decision to change from his desire to have CPR as the resident signed a POLST in October of 2021, indicated to become a DNR (no CPR) as orders reflected after that date, as there is no evidence to indicate a discussion actually occurred with the resident himself, or that the resident signed a new document indicating a desire to change his wishes. There was no evidence the resident became incapable to not make that decision during his stay at the facility. The above information was reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 3:45 PM.

F684G · Actual harm, isolated

Based on closed clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to provide the highest practicable care for a resident's change in condition that resulted in death for one of six residents reviewed causing actual harm (Resident CR1). Findings include: Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed that the resident had been a long-term resident of the facility with an admitted [DATE]. Review of Resident CR1's closed clinical record revealed a nursing note dated [DATE], at 8:25 PM noting the resident had complaints of nausea and not feeling well. A nursing note followed dated [DATE], at 2:38 AM noting no further emesis, and a clear liquid tray was ordered for breakfast. There was no further documentation identified between the notes identified above between the evening of [DATE], through the night to [DATE], regarding the number of times emesis occurred or any other details. A review of meal intakes for Resident CR1 for [DATE], revealed the resident was documented as only consuming ,d+[DATE] percent of breakfast and lunch and had refused dinner on that day. Review of meal intakes for the resident prior to [DATE], back to [DATE], revealed the resident had normally consumed at least 51% of meals and mostly ,d+[DATE] percent of meals. Resident CR1's meal intakes for [DATE], breakfast continued to be low for the resident at ,d+[DATE] percent, with lunch slightly better at ,d+[DATE] percent and dinner ,d+[DATE] percent. Resident CR1 was also documented on his bowel record of having a loose/diarrhea bowel movement on the evening of [DATE]. The resident was documented as having normal stools almost daily for several days leading up to [DATE]. There were no further nursing notes for Resident CR1 for [DATE], reflecting the decrease in meal intakes, whether his nausea had subsided, if there was any further emesis during the day of [DATE], or that the resident had a loose/diarrhea bowel movement since nausea and vomiting has been recently documented. The next nursing note for the resident was dated [DATE], at 2:13 PM, which noted the resident had emesis twice during the shift with coffee ground appearance, very foul odor, and the resident complaining overall of not feeling well. It was noted the registered nurse supervisor was notified and observed the emesis, and the resident would be monitored for increased emesis and vital sign changes. A late entry note documented by the registered nurse on [DATE], at 9:54 AM for [DATE], at 2:51 PM noted the resident was having multiple emesis during the shift, it was liquid brown in color, there was no concern for gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, and the emesis had no coffee brown texture noted upon assessment. The note indicated GI illness was circulating around the building and the resident's provider was aware with Zofran (an anti-nausea medication) ordered and fluids encouraged. A review of Resident CR1's orders revealed Zofran was ordered on [DATE], at 10:00 PM to be administered every eight hours for nausea/vomiting for three days. An order for the resident to have vital sign checks each shift was also identified as ordered on [DATE], at 11:00 PM. Further review of Resident CR1's bowel records for [DATE], also revealed loose stools/diarrhea were documented for that day. Nursing documentation dated [DATE], at 8:05 PM noted the resident refused an evening snack due to nausea and vomiting. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 10:22 PM noted the resident had two extra-large emesis during the shift of dark brown liquid noting the resident consumes a chocolate nutritional supplement, and the Zofran was given. Resident CR1's bowel records also indicated the resident had a loose/diarrhea stool documented the early morning hours of [DATE]. A review of resident CR1's vital signs on [DATE], revealed the resident's blood pressure obtained at 8:49 AM as ,d+[DATE] mmHg (millimeters of mercury) with a warning indicating the Diastolic (bottom number) was low below 60, and the Systolic (top number) was low below 90. Review of Resident CR1's [DATE], medication administration record revealed a medication Lisinopril (medication used to treat high blood pressure) was ordered for the resident daily in the morning and is to be held for a Systolic blood pressure less than 110 mmHg. The Lisinopril was documented as not administered due to vitals outside parameters for administration. A correlated administration note for [DATE], at 10:38 AM noted the medication order as it appears on the medication administration record to hold for a Systolic blood pressure of less than 110 mmHg. An administration note also followed for Resident CR1 at 10:39 AM on [DATE], noting the resident's sliding scale insulin was not administered as the resident is vomiting and refusing meals. The resident's routine insulin was also noted in an administration note that followed at 10:41 AM that it was not administered as the resident was refusing meals, and an administration note at 12:03 PM that the resident's nutritional supplement was refused as the resident was vomiting. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 12:58 PM indicated Resident CR1 was assessed by the provider on that day for nausea and vomiting and the resident continued to receive Zofran every eight hours for three days, labs were to be completed the next day, and clear liquids were to be given for 24 hours. A review of Resident CR1's physician orders revealed the following orders on [DATE]: 7:00 AM encourage 120 milliliters of fluid every shift 7:00 AM clear liquids for 24 hours 12:45 PM KUB (an Xray/scan of the urinary system) 12:45 PM CBC, BMP, and LFT's (diagnostic testing of complete blood count, basic metabolic panel, and liver function testing) A review of physician assistant (PA) documentation for [DATE], for an encounter with Resident CR1 on [DATE], revealed the resident was noted as seen for evaluation of nausea and vomiting and the PA was asked to see the resident after having developed symptoms of nausea and vomiting yesterday, ([DATE], even though the nausea and vomiting started on [DATE]), and upon evaluation had vomited once on [DATE], prior to the visit. The resident indicated to the PA that his bowels were moving normally, and he did not have a fever. It was noted staff reported the resident had coffee ground emesis on [DATE], however, the registered nurse reported it was slightly brown in color but did not feel it was coffee ground emesis. The PA noted the resident's blood sugar was over 200 for the day and his blood pressure from ,d+[DATE] was ,d+[DATE] mmHg. The encounter note indicated the PA reviewed the most recent facility's vitals for the resident and due to the discrepancy reports on the coffee ground emesis would check the CBC, BMP, LFT's, continue the Zofran, clear liquid diet, check KUB given slightly hypoactive bowel sounds, and recheck on [DATE], after KUB was reviewed. The time of the PA's visit was not indicated on the encounter visit report although per interview with the Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 3:45 PM indicated the PA reported she had visited the resident around 11:00 AM on [DATE]. The note was electronically signed by the PA on [DATE], at 2:49 PM. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 2:30 PM noted the nurse was called to Resident CR1's room as the resident was again vomiting and cool to tough. He was alert and speaking. The resident's blood sugar was noted as high at 476 mg/dL, and the provider was consulted, and the decision was made to send the resident to the emergency department for further evaluation. It was noted emergency medical services was called, and the resident expired at 2:20 PM, noting emergency medical services was updated upon arrival. An additional note from the PA with an encounter date of [DATE], electronically signed by the PA on [DATE], at 12:41 PM, noted a few hours after the PA had seen Resident CR1, the registered nurse came to the PA's office indicating the resident had several more episodes of vomiting since she has seen him and seemed to be declining. The registered nurse reported the resident's color did not look good and the resident seemed diaphoretic, also reporting his blood pressure was low. The registered nurse reported that there were a few spots of bright red blood on the resident's sheet but on assessment concluded it to be from a sacral wound. The PA advised to call emergency medical services and have the resident transferred to the emergency department. The PA noted the registered nurse then called her moments later and reported the resident was not responsive and had signs of respiratory distress, the nurse confirmed the resident did have a pulse and the resident's code status was reviewed and confirmed the resident was a do not resuscitate/do not intubate. The nurse was advised if the resident still had a pulse to call 911. It was noted the nurse called again a few moments later and reported 911 had been called; however, the resident was now pulseless and ceased to breathe. Emergency staff arrived just after they hung up the phone, and the nurse pronounced the resident. A physician's note dated [DATE], at 12:11 PM as a death pronouncement noted the resident's date of expiration was [DATE], with a cause of death as aspiration pneumonia, acute hypoxic respiratory failure, with secondary diagnosis listed of diabetes type 2, peripheral vascular disease, ventral hernia, neurogenic bladder, major depressive disorder, and intellectual disability. The note only referenced on [DATE], the resident was noted to have nausea and vomiting, and a GI virus had been affecting other residents in the facility. It noted symptoms continued [DATE], and the resident was evaluated by the medical team and noted to be at baseline mental state, stating he was feeling nauseous and tired. It was noted there had been some concerns of coffee ground emesis but on further evaluation of emesis by nursing was not found to be the case, more consistent with bilious/stomach acid. It was noted later that afternoon the resident had a worsening of status, emergency services were called for transfer to the emergency department, and unfortunately while they were enroute the resident was noted to have agonal breathing, respiratory distress, became pulseless, and no code blue (emergency alert for a patient in cardiac arrest) was called as the patient was a known do not resuscitate/do not intubate. There was no evidence the PA or the resident's physician was made aware Resident CR1's nausea and vomiting had actually started as documented late on [DATE] into the early morning hours of [DATE], as the PA referenced in the note as symptoms started on [DATE], per staff, or that the either was aware the resident had loose stools identified in bowel records also beginning [DATE], and significantly decreased intakes of meals due to nausea and vomiting beginning [DATE], not one day before on [DATE]. The PA's note did not reflect being made aware of the resident's significant decrease in blood pressure as it was obtained on [DATE], in the morning at 8:49 AM as the PA's note reflected the resident's blood pressure from the day before ([DATE]) in normal range in the visit on [DATE]. The PA did not reference being made aware of any low blood pressure until the later encounter with the registered nurse on [DATE], as noted above when the resident rapidly declined in the afternoon. Facility staff were not able to provide any evidence to the surveyor to indicate Resident CR1's providers were made aware the resident's change in condition began late on [DATE], greater than 24 hours prior, and not [DATE], as indicated in provider reports. Additional diagnostics were not ordered until [DATE], after the PA visited the resident. There was no evidence of any follow up to the resident's condition on [DATE], as emesis was noted in the very early morning hours, the resident had loose stools documented, and the resident's meal intakes reflected significant decline for the day with refusal of dinner, until emesis was documented on [DATE]. Resident CR1 expired on [DATE], at 2:20 PM prior to any of the ordered diagnostic testing being completed. The above information was reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 3:45 PM. Cross Refer F578 483.25 Quality of Care Previously cited deficiency [DATE] 28 Pa.

Based on observation, clinical record review, review of facility documents, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to protect the rights of a resident to be free from neglect by not providing the services necessary to avoid physical harm resulting in injury for one of four residents reviewed that sustained two fractures (Resident 1). Findings include: An observation of Resident 1 on March 1, 2023, at 12:45 PM revealed the resident lying in bed with a sling on her left arm. Clinical record review for Resident 1 revealed the [AGE] year-old resident had resided in the facility since 2012, and had resided in the same room on the same Unit 2 since October 2021. A progress note dated February 22, 2023, at 5:43 AM noted the resident was observed to be sitting on her buttocks with her feet in front of her outside the shower room on Unit 2 and was assessed with no injuries. The note also indicated the fall was witnessed and her aide stated the resident got away from her and she couldn't catch her fast enough. It was noted the resident had non-slip socks on both her feet, the resident had just been showered, and a gait belt was not around her waist. The note indicated staff was educated on the proper usage of her gait belt and signed education on looking up a resident's ambulation and transfer ordered and following them. A review of Resident 1's physician orders revealed the resident was ambulated and transferred with assist of one with hand-held assist and a black gait belt ordered on July 19, 2021. An annual MDS (Minimum Data Set, an assessment completed at periodic interval to assess resident care needs), completed on February 3, 2023, for Resident 1, revealed facility staff assessed the resident as having severe cognitive impairment, and needing extensive assistance for transfers, walking in room, and limited assistance of one for walking in the corridor. A nursing note dated February 22, 2023, at 11:42 AM noted a new order for Resident 1 for a left should x-ray as the resident was guarding and indicated pain when the arm is moved. A follow up note on February 22, 2023, at 8:51 PM noted the x-ray results were received for Resident 1, and a distal left clavicular fracture was noted with new orders to immobilize the arm, apply a sling to the left arm, and follow up with orthopedics. Review of the x-ray report dated February 22, 2023, at 3:22 PM for Resident 1 indicated a distal left clavicular fracture. A nursing note dated February 23, 2023, at 2:36 PM noted Resident 1 now had swelling to the left side of her face, and was guarding and saying ouch, when her legs were moved. A follow up note at 3:18 pm noted a new order for a left hip x-ray. A final x-ray report dated February 24, 2023, at 9:50 AM for Resident 1 indicated an impacted left sided sub capital femoral neck fracture, underlying osteopenia, and mild degenerative changes of both hips. A nursing note dated February 24, 2023, at 3:38 PM noted the provider spoke with Resident 1's responsible party about fractured hip, and family has decided not to have surgery on hip and resident to be comfortable. After consulting with orthopedics, the provider gave new orders for the resident to be non-weight bearing of left hip. Review of a witness statement from Employee 1, nurse aide, who was assisting Resident 1 at the time of the fall on February 22, 2023, Employee 1 noted she was walking the resident back to her room when Resident 1 pulled away from her to grab the bar on the wall and she went down. A review a PB-22 report submitted by the facility on February 24, 2023, indicated Employee 1 ambulated Resident 1 from the shower room with assist of one and hand-held assistance and Employee 1 reported she received ambulation information from the licensed practical nurse (LPN) verbally, and Employee 1 was immediately educated on protocol of checking resident profile orders prior to performing tasks. In a phone interview conducted by the Director of Nursing with Employee 2, LPN, noted above as providing verbal instruction on Resident 1's ambulation status, on March 1, 2023, at 9:45 AM, Employee 2, LPN, indicated she was asked by Employee 1 on February 22, 2023, the ambulation status of Resident 1, and replied, I've seen them take her to the bathroom and shower with only one person. Employee 2 indicated she did not check the physician order at the time as she was in the middle of passing medications, and we have five other computers, usually when someone is not sure, they go and check. Employee 2 did not instruct Employee 1 to go and check the orders, and everyone is responsible to see if there are changes in the computer orders. Employee 1 and Employee 2 signed off on immediate education dated February 22, 2023, the day of Resident 1's fall, regarding checking a resident's profile in the computer for care needs. The facility followed with whole house re-education on reviewing a resident's profile for care needs. Employee 1 received a final written warning disciplinary action for not following the resident's orders, which was signed on March 1, 2023, after the surveyor's entry for the onsite visit. Employee 2 was to sign verbal disciplinary action when reporting for her shift on March 1, 2023, for not reviewing orders prior to providing instruction to the nurse aide or instructing Employee 1 to review the resident's profile when the ambulation status was not known. In an interview with the Director of Nursing on March 1, 2023, at 8:30 AM she indicated all the nurse aides/staff must sign off each shift that they have completed a task of reviewing the resident's profile that they are assigned to during that shift, and Employee 1 completed that task for Resident 1 on February 22, 2023, the shift the fall occurred. A review of the facility's electronic medical record system revealed each resident has an electronic profile, which includes active orders for care including ambulation and transfer status of the resident. A task was identified for each resident each shift for the caregiver to sign off each shift that they have read the resident's profile with a yes or no response. A random review of facility staff who identified their roles as nurse aides working the nursing units of the facility during the onsite visit on March 1, 2023, revealed that although staff needed to leave a resident's room/leave a resident, and utilize a computer located at the nursing station, the staff could log into a resident's record, view a resident profile, and were able to access the task, which required staff to sign off yes or no as to whether the profile was reviewed during the shift. The task could be reviewed at any time during the shift and did not need to be completed prior to providing care. Staff were able to select that yes, they reviewed the resident's profile, without clicking on the profile first. Random interviews indicated the nurse aides, know the resident's needs, because they work with them all the time, and that there is no time to review the profiles for all residents under their care prior to providing care. A review of personnel information for Employee 1 revealed Employee 1 had been hired on January 30, 2023, completed nurse aide orientation to the facility on [DATE], and had worked five shifts on Unit 2 where Resident 1 resided prior to the morning of the incident on February 22, 2023. A review of Employee 1's orientation/competency check list prior to working independently on a nursing unit revealed Employee 1 demonstrated the appropriate use of gait belts on February 6, 2023, and that she understood the computer/KIOSK, on February 8, 2023. A Care Assist Documentation sheet was provided as included with the orientation, which included where to find individual resident orders by clicking the resident profile, and that the profile must be read each shift. There was no competency regarding accessing the resident profile to indicate whether Employee 1 was competent in that duty prior to working on the nursing unit independently. Resident 1's active orders indicated a change in transfer status to a Hoyer lift and non-weight bearing to her left leg on February 24, 2023, and no ambulation as of February 27, 2023, due to the two fractures sustained during the fall on February 22, 2023, in which the resident was being ambulated without a black gait belt as ordered. In an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on March 2, 2023, at 3:30 PM the above findings were reviewed. 483.13 - Resident Behavior and Facility Practices, 10-1-1998 edition 28 Pa.

Based on closed clinical record review, review of facility documentation, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to implement assessed interventions to prevent accidents for one of two residents reviewed for falls, resulting in harm with a fractured femur (Resident CR1). Findings include: Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with a diagnosis of dementia, abnormal gait and mobility, and a history of falling. Repeated falls was listed as a diagnosis on [DATE]. Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed the resident did have a history of frequent falls with evidence of the resident having 13 falls since [DATE] ([DATE]; February 9; [DATE]; [DATE]; [DATE], 28; [DATE]; [DATE]; and [DATE], 2022, with no major injury reported). Resident CR1 fell again on [DATE], and sustained a fractured femur. A comprehensive MDS (Minimum Data Set, an assessment completed a periodic intervals of time to determine resident care needs) dated [DATE], revealed facility staff assessed the resident with a BIMS (Brief interview for mental status) score of three, indicating severe cognitive impairment, and requiring assistance of one person physical assistance for transfers. A review of Resident CR1's plan of care for falls initiated on February 28, 2020, revealed an intervention of placing the resident's bed against the wall with the head of the bed facing the doorway was initiated on [DATE]. A physician's order dated [DATE], also ordered the resident to have her bed against the wall and the head of the bed facing the doorway. A physician's order dated [DATE], ordered anti-skid strips to be placed in front of the resident's recliner chair, toilet, and the open side of the bed. An updated physician's order and plan of care intervention dated [DATE], indicated anti-skid strips in front of the toilet and open side of the bed. Nursing documentation dated [DATE], at 3:24 PM noted the staff member was called to Resident CR1's room at 2:00 PM for a fall, and the resident was observed laying on her back on the floor with her head partially under the end of her bed by the wheel of the bed. The resident's left leg was internally rotated and on palpitation the resident screamed in pain. Upon contacting the resident's physician, the resident was transferred to the emergency room at 2:20 PM. Review of Resident CR1's fall investigation report dated [DATE], revealed the resident was in bed prior to the fall, and a corrective action measure was to replace non-skid strips on the floor beside the bed, and noted the floor was tacky, recently waxed, and non-skid strips not replaced after floors waxed. Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed a new intervention was added to the resident's plan of care on [DATE], which indicated, fall from bed to floor - replace non-skid strips at bedside. The investigation also indicated staff placed the resident in bed at 1:45 PM. In an interview with the Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 10:00 AM she indicated Resident's CR1's floor was waxed earlier in the day by housekeeping on [DATE], and the non-skid strips were not put back on the floor prior to the resident's return to the room. In an interview with Employee 1, Director of Environmental services, at 12:27 PM she indicated room Resident CR1's room was waxed on [DATE], and the non-skid strips were not placed back on the floor on the resident's open side of the bed (other side against the wall as ordered) prior to the resident returning to the room. Employee 1 provided the schedule of room waxing for [DATE], and Resident CR1's room was listed for [DATE]. A review of resident CR1's CT (computerized tomography) scan provided to the facility obtained on [DATE], at 3:15 PM revealed the resident sustained an acute impacted comminuted intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fracture of the left proximal femur. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 5:48 PM noted a facility staff member was notified Resident CR1 was positive for a fracture and that the resident would be transferred to another acute care facility for further evaluation. A nursing note dated [DATE], at 6:02 PM revealed the facility was notified Resident CR1 had expired at the hospital. An interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on [DATE], at 3:15 PM confirmed the above findings regarding Resident CR1's fall on [DATE], resulting in a fracture, and the non-skid strips were not on the floor beside the resident's bed at the time of the fall. 28 Pa.

Based on review of select facility policies, facility documentation, clinical record review, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that residents were free from neglect for one of six residents reviewed that resulted in harm for a resident that sustained a fractured right ankle (Resident 117). Findings include: The facility policy entitled, Abuse, last reviewed in (MONTH) (YEAR), without changes, revealed that each resident has the right to be free from abuse, including neglect. Abuse of residents will not be tolerated. Violation of this standard will subject employees to disciplinary action, including dismissal. Active neglect is the willful deprivation of goods or services, which are necessary to maintain physical or mental health. Passive neglect is the deprivation of goods or services, which are necessary to maintain physical or mental health, without a conscious attempt to inflict physical or emotional distress. Clinical record review for Resident 117 revealed that the facility completed an initial MDS (Minimum Data Set, an assessment tool completed at specific intervals to determine resident care needs) on (MONTH) 24, (YEAR), indicating that Resident 117 is alert, oriented, and capable of making her own decisions. The facility documentation revealed that on (MONTH) 1, (YEAR), at 8:40 PM Employee 1, nurse aide, transferred Resident 117 by himself.
