AV later reported to facility staff that he/she was suffering from pain two days after the incident in which AV was then transported to the hospital for treatment and was diagnosed with a fracture to his/her spine. An investigation determined that facility failed to implement interventions into AV's care plan to ensure AV's bed rail was properly raised when AV had increased alcohol consumption.
