The Fall Risk Evaluation indicated the following:Level of consciousness / mental status = Intermittent confusion (experiencing temporary, recurring periods where you can't think clearly)Ambulation / elimination status = Bed bound / Incontinent (involuntary leakage of urine or stool).Vision status = Poor During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated 11/12/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1's cognitive (ability to think and reason) skills for daily decision making was severely impaired (never/rarely made decisions).

During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP), revised on 11/18/2025, it indicated Resident 1 has coronary artery disease (fatty buildup narrows or blocks the arteries) related to hypercholesterolemia (having abnormally high levels of fats in your blood) and HTN.

During a review of Resident 1's CP, revised on 11/18/2025, it indicated Resident 1 is at risk for falls. The CP indicated the following interventions: If a resident is a fall risk, initiate fall risk precautions.May put bed to the lowest position every shift for safety and history of fall related to restlessness.
