Health deficiencies cited at Somerset Nursing And Rehabilitation Facility during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with dementia, osteoporosis, a right artificial hip, and severe cognitive impairment was care planned as dependent for bed mobility, toileting, and transfers, with an intervention requiring two staff for assistance. Despite this, an SRNA, who knew the resident was a two-person assist, began perineal care alone and rolled the resident onto the side, causing the resident to roll out of bed and fall. An LPN obtained stat x-rays that showed a displaced right femoral shaft fracture, and the resident was sent to the hospital, where surgery was performed and the resident later died on a hospice unit. Staff interviews confirmed that the two-person assist requirement had been in place for years and that the failure to follow the care plan led to the incident.
A resident with dementia, osteoporosis, and a right artificial hip joint, assessed as severely cognitively impaired and dependent for bed mobility, toileting, and transfers, had a care plan and Kardex requiring a two-person assist for these ADLs. An SRNA, despite knowing this requirement, began perineal care alone and rolled the resident onto her side, causing the resident to roll out of bed onto the floor. The incident report and IDT identified the root cause as failure to follow the Kardex, with contributing factors including the resident’s weakness and history of falls. An LPN and unit manager found the resident on the floor, obtained stat x-rays that revealed a displaced right femoral shaft fracture, and the resident was sent to the hospital, where imaging confirmed a comminuted, moderately displaced femoral fracture and an ORIF procedure was performed. Staff interviews confirmed that the resident had long required a two-person assist and that only one staff member was present at the time of the incident, and also revealed that nurses and managers had not routinely spot checked SRNAs for adherence to the care plan/Kardex prior to the event.
Failure to Follow Two-Person Assist Care Plan Resulting in Resident Fall and Fracture
Penalty
Summary
The deficiency involves the facility’s failure to implement a comprehensive, person-centered care plan for a resident who required extensive assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). The facility’s policy required development and implementation of care plans with measurable objectives and time frames to meet residents’ medical, nursing, mental, and psychosocial needs. The resident was admitted with osteoporosis, a right artificial hip joint, and dementia, and was assessed on a quarterly MDS as severely cognitively impaired, rarely or never understood, and dependent for bed mobility, toileting, and transfers. The resident’s care plan/kardex identified an ADL problem and included an intervention requiring two staff to assist with bed mobility, toileting, and transfers. On the day of the incident, a state registered nurse aide (SRNA) began providing perineal care to the resident and rolled the resident onto her left side without waiting for a second staff member, despite knowing the resident was care planned as a two-person assist. When the SRNA rolled the resident, the resident rolled out of bed and fell to the floor on her right side. The incident report documented that the root cause of the fall was the resident being rolled too far over, causing her to roll out of bed. Staff interviews confirmed that the resident had been a two-person assist for years and that there had been no changes to the care plan on the day of the incident. Following the fall, an LPN assessed the resident, notified the nurse practitioner, and obtained stat x-rays, which revealed a right femoral diaphyseal fracture with complete displacement and foreshortening, and an orthopedic consult was recommended. Hospital imaging later confirmed a comminuted and moderately displaced mid to distal right femoral shaft fracture, and the surgical team repaired the resident’s hip. Hospital documentation showed that the resident subsequently died while on the hospital’s hospice unit. Interviews with the SRNA, LPN, unit manager, infection preventionist/acting DON, and the administrator consistently indicated that staff were trained to follow the care plan/kardex and that the resident’s two-person assist requirement was known, but in this incident the care plan intervention was not followed.
Failure to Follow Two-Person Assist Care Plan Resulting in Fall and Femur Fracture
Penalty
Summary
The deficiency involves the facility’s failure to provide adequate supervision and assistance during care, resulting in a fall with fracture for one resident. The resident was admitted with osteoporosis, a right artificial hip joint, and dementia, and was assessed on the Quarterly MDS as severely cognitively impaired and rarely/never understood. The MDS further documented the resident as dependent for bed mobility, toileting, and transfers. The resident’s care plan, as reflected on the Kardex, identified an Activities of Daily Living (ADL) problem and included an intervention requiring two staff to assist with bed mobility, toileting, and transfers. On the day of the incident, an SRNA began providing perineal care to the resident alone, despite knowing the resident required a two-person assist. The SRNA rolled the resident onto her left side, which caused the resident to roll out of bed on her right side onto the floor next to the other bed in the room. The incident report documented that the root cause was the resident being rolled too far over during care, and the IDT determined that the SRNA failed to follow the resident’s Kardex. At the time of the incident, the resident had predisposing physiological factors of weakness and situational factors including a history of falls. Following the fall, an LPN and the unit manager responded to the room and found the resident lying on her right side on the floor, with no apparent distress or obvious injury initially observed. The LPN documented notification of the NP and family and obtained orders for x-rays of the right shoulder, hip, and knee. Mobile x-ray results showed a right femoral diaphyseal fracture with complete displacement and foreshortening, and an orthopedic consult was recommended. The resident was subsequently sent to the hospital, where imaging confirmed a comminuted, moderately displaced mid to distal right femoral shaft fracture, and an ORIF procedure with plate and screw fixation was performed. The resident later expired in the hospital’s hospice unit. Interviews with the SRNA, LPN, another SRNA, the unit manager, the acting DON/IP nurse, and the administrator consistently confirmed that the resident had long been a two-person assist and that only one staff member was present providing care at the time of the incident, contrary to the care plan and Kardex. Staff interviews further revealed that, prior to the incident, nurses and unit managers did not routinely spot check SRNAs to ensure they were following the care plan/Kardex when providing care. The SRNA involved acknowledged she had been trained during orientation to follow the care plan/Kardex and admitted she did not follow it in this case, stating she started care alone while expecting her partner to join later. The LPN, another SRNA, the unit manager, the acting DON/IP nurse, and the administrator all stated that the resident’s care plan and Kardex required two staff for bed mobility and related ADLs and that there had been no change to this requirement on the day of the incident. The administrator and acting DON/IP nurse both stated it was their expectation that staff follow the care plans and Kardex when providing care, and the administrator confirmed that only one staff member was present when the incident occurred.
