Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure appropriate treatment and services were provided to prevent potential further decline in range of motion (ROM; the extent to which a joint can move through its entire range of motion without pain or restrictions) for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1), when Resident 1's ordered Restorative Nursing Program (program to help ensure that residents retain the skills gained in physical therapy and prevent declines that can impact the quality of a resident's life) to provide passive range of motion (PROM; when another person or a machine moves a patient's limb or joint through its full range of motion without the patient's active muscle contraction or effort) to Resident 1's bilateral lower extremities (BLE; both legs) was discontinued on 2/5/25 without an updated referral from the therapy department. This failure had the potential to result in decreased ROM for Resident 1 and for Resident 1's contractures (a body part that gets stuck in a bent or shortened position because of permanent tightening of muscles, tendons, ligaments, or skin that prevents a body part, most often a joint, from moving freely) to worsen.Findings:Review of Resident 1's functional mobility (a person's capacity to move safely and independently to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) such as walking, standing, sitting, and transfers between surfaces) care plan, initiated 4/21/25, in the section titled Focus, indicated .[Resident 1] exhibits or is at risk for alterations in functional mobility related to contracture deformity [a fixed tightening of muscle, tendons, ligaments, or skin that prevents normal movement of the associated body part]: Prevent and Treatment: B [bilateral; both sides] UE/LE [upper extremity (arm)/lower extremity (leg)] contractors. In the section titled Goals, indicated, .[Resident 1] will not have a decrease in ROM times 90 days.[Resident 1] will have no increase in contractures X [times] 90 day [sic].A review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment tool), in the section titled, Section GG - Functional Abilities, dated 8/3/25, indicated Resident 1 was dependent on staff for all care needs including eating, toileting, bathing, personal hygiene, and dressing.During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/24/25, at 11:28 a.m., with Restorative Nurse Assistant (RNA) 1, Resident 1's document titled, RNA Orders & Referral Form, dated 12/6/24, was reviewed. Review of Resident 1's RNA order, signed by the Director of Rehab (DOR), indicated to provide .Passive ROM. [checked box] RNA for PROM to BUE & BLE.Non verbal [unable to speak], increase risk of contracture related to immobility [unable to move on own], ROM. RNA 1 verified that this was Resident 1's most recent referral for RNA services and stated Resident 1 was currently only receiving PROM therapy for bilateral upper extremities three times a week. RNA 1 further stated that Resident 1 used to receive PROM for BUE and PROM for BLE but stopped receiving BLE PROM between February and March of this year (2025). During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/25/25, at 1:15 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 1's physician orders were reviewed. The DON verified Resident 1's physician order for BLE PROM three times a week was discontinued on 2/5/25. The DON stated the facility should have continued both BUE and BLE PROM therapy and Resident 1's order for BLE PROM should not have been discontinued without a new referral from therapy. The DON further stated that without receiving the BLE PROM Resident 1 was at risk of experiencing worsening contractures and potentially pain associated with the joints and immobility.During an interview on 9/25/25, at 2:05 p.m., with Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) 1, PTA 1 stated Resident 1 would not be able to maintain range of motion or mobility without BLE PROM. PTA 1 noted that Resident 1 was at risk for worsening contractures and potential discomfort.During a review of Resident 1's document titled, Documentation Survey Report V2 for the months of 12/24 to 8/25 indicated Resident 1 last received BLE PROM on 2/13/25.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure
