32 | On 12/9/2022 at 1:57pm, the facility faxed a Physician Communication form to R1’s Primary Care Physician (PCP), indicating R1 had an unwitnessed fall in their apartment with no complaints of pain and no signs of injury. On 1/31/2023 at 12:43pm, the facility faxed a Physician Communication form to R1’s Primary Care Physician (PCP), indicating R1 had an unwitnessed fall in their apartment, has small skin tear on right hand but no complaints on pain.
R1 had numerous visits by Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy from November 2022 through March 2023, with the goal of getting stronger and preventing falls.
R1’s updated health and service evaluation results (assessment) dated 4/26/2023 indicates R1 would receive standby assistance for dressing, reminders and setup assistance for toileting, was continent but wore pull-ups/protective underwear, needed assistance with medication, no additional status checks, was a fall risk, was able to walk with walker, reminders to use their walker to go to meals, independent with transfers, standby assistance for bathing two times per week with a shower chair, provided reminders and setup assistance for grooming/personal hygiene, and uses chargeable hearing aids. The assessment indicates resident was oriented to person, has current history of occasional disorientation to person/place/time/situation, requires some direction and reminding from others, but is able to communicate effectively and make needs known. The assessment states R1 could not leave unassisted, will be provide with staff intervention assistance for wandering in public areas, not exit-seeking/intrusive behaviors, current or history of occasional poor judgement, may resist care at times, needs supervision because resident may make inappropriate decisions. The assessment also indicates R1 could use their emergency response system pull cord. The assessment was signed 4/27/2023 by R1’s responsible party, the resident services director, and the executive director.
Current administrator stated that a review of the 4/26/2023 assessment provided that resident was improving based on the service plan being reduced in score, which equates to a reduction in service charges to the resident.
On 5/9/2023 at 2:18am, the facility faxed a Physician Communication form to R1’s Primary Care Physician (PCP), indicating R1 was found in bed with a cut near their right eye and a tear on right hand. There was dried blood present, and R1 did not know what happened. First aid was provided. Administrator (who was not the administrator at the time of this complaint), noted based on the facility documents available, there was no indication how severe the cut or skin tear were. Administrator also indicated since R1 needed assistance with transfers, it seems unlikely they could have fallen out of bed and put themselves back in without staff assistance. |
