13 | Licensing Program Analyst Leibert arrives unannounced and delivers findings. This Department makes the following determinations based on interviews and documents reviews: R1 was found on the floor 07/01/2023 at 0400hrs and 911 was called; No other falls are known to have occurred at facility; R1 is considered a "high risk" for falls and uses a wheelchair and requires assists with transfers; Staff (S1) reports that R1 was agitated during the day preceding the fall; R1 was taken to bathroom by S1 at approximately 0400 hrs, 7/1 and then returned to R1's bed; Approximately 15 - 20 minutes later, S1 heard R1 call for help; R1 was found on the floor; Hospital records indicate R1 sustained an acute comminuted C1 fracture sustained from an injury resulting from ground level fall. Although the allegation that neglect/lack of supervision resulted in R1 sustaining an injury may be true, based upon the reviewed documents and statements, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegation is, or is not, true. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
