Determining An Adverse Incident Questions & Answers
Did an incident occur in which a resident was injured or a specific situation existed? AND Is the incident in which one or more of the statutorily defined injuries/situations occurred? Is the incident an event that is associated completely or partly with the facility staff’s intervention or lack of intervention?
20

Incidents Which Are Automatically Defined as Adverse: Abuse, neglect or exploitation as defined in s , F.S., (Vulnerable Adult) Resident elopement (based on the facility’s definition of elopement) An event that is reported to law enforcement. (Does not include notification for Baker Act transport or required notification of a death determined to be from natural causes.)

Most Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do deaths of natural causes or expected deaths of residents who are hospice patients need to be reported? A: Although the circumstances of every death must be reviewed individually, unless the death is related to staff intervention or lack of intervention, it is not reportable. Not all deaths are adverse incidents.
23
Most Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do all transfers to an acute care facility for diagnosis and/or treatment need to be reported? What about pre-existing medical problems that get worse? A: As with deaths, every circumstance that results in transfer to an acute care facility must be reviewed individually. Unless the condition requiring transfer is related to staff intervention or lack of intervention, it probably is not reportable. Not all transfers to a higher level of care are adverse incidents.
24
Most Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to report resident-to-resident altercations? A: If there is no injury and the police are not called, it probably does not need to be reported. If law enforcement is called to investigate an assault, it must be reported. If the act is willful or threatened, resulting in substantial mental, emotional, or physical impairment, it must be reported as abuse (if a resident was transferred to the hospital for treatment the “transfer” outcome box would also be checked). If an unsafe environment existed at the time of the altercation based on insufficient staff monitoring or intervention, it must be reported as staff neglect.
