Review of the Nurse's Notes revealed on 12/14/2011 the RN (registered nurse) Supervisor documented: "This Elder was found in the floor sitting upright with blood on head, face and on the floor. She did not make any noise the companion just happen to walk to the front of the common area and saw her on the floor. The laceration to the back of her head measured 1.5 cm superficial. Site was cleansed by Primary Nurse. Neuro checks started per policy. Corrective action: Place tab alert to Elder to be worn anytime she is out of bed." 2015-05-01
