related to impaired mobility and urinary/bowel incontinence. The interventions included to turn and
reposition every two hours and as needed, and if incontinent, to check every two hours for soiling, or
wetness, thoroughly cleanse after each episode of incontinence.
Review of Resident 2's Documentation Survey V2 for September 2024 showed the following:
