The woman was being treated at Tamahere Eventide Home and Retirement Village.
Commissioner Carolyn Cooper says multiple breaches of the Health and Disability Code before and after the fall, include a lack of proper checks.
She has recommended the home review its education on fall management, and provide evidence of doing so.
