Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide care in accordance with professional
standards of practice for two of three sampled residents (Resident 1 and 2) when:
Residents Affected - Few
1. Staff did not complete an SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recommendation, a communication
tool) and did not notify the physician and the responsible party (RP, person designated to make decisions
on behalf of a resident) when an altercation occurred between Resident 1 and Resident 2;
2. Licensed nurse did not do a skin assessment for Resident 1 when Resident 2 threw coffee on Resident
1;
3. Licensed nurses did not put Resident 1 and Resident 2 on alert charting (nurses on each shift closely
monitor and document in the medical record for 72 hours about a specific condition) when an altercation
between Resident 1 and Resident 2 occurred;
4. Staff did not follow up with Resident 2 following a room change.
These failures had the potential to result in inadequate monitoring of the resident's conditions, and the
potential to negatively affect the residents' health, safety and well-being.
Findings:

Abuse), dated 1/11/24, indicated at approximately 8:17 a.m., it was reported that Resident 2 threw cold
coffee on roommate, Resident 1. A facility's untitled document, dated 1/15/24, contained a summary of the
findings regarding the SOC. The summary indicated on 1/11/24 the certified nursing assistant (CNA)
noticed that coffee had been spilled on Resident 1. The document further indicated Resident 1 informed the
CNA that her roommate Resident 2 had thrown cold coffee on her. Upon interview with Resident 2,
Resident 2 admitted to throwing coffee at Resident 1

records of Resident 1 and Resident 2 and confirmed there was no SBAR done on 1/11/24 when the

been completed and stated in addition the facility must notify a resident's physician and responsible party if
there is an altercation between 2 residents. The DON reviewed Resident 1 and Resident 2's clinical records
