F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in accordance with accepted professional standards. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to document an assessment (monitor for medical changes) for one of three residents (Resident 3) after a fall. This failure had the potential for Resident 3's overall medical condition to decline and go undetected by the facility. Findings: An abbreviated survey was conducted on May 24, 2023, at 5:47 AM to investigate a complaint regarding Quality of Care. During review of Residents 3's Face sheet (general demographics), the document indicated Resident 3 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses to include: diabetes (body doesn't produce enough insulin) and heart failure (heart doesn't pump enough blood for your body,) During a review of the clinical record for Resident 3, the SBAR (Communication Form for changes in conditions) dated May 22, 2023, at 9:50 PM, indicated The change in condition . Resident 3 had an unwitnessed fall. Resident fell inside the room when transferring himself from one wheelchair to another wheelchair. He complained that he hit his head and complained of right hip pain. Doctor notified. Resident refused to go to the doctor. During an interview and concurrent record review of Resident 3's clinical records with Registered Nurse (RN 1), on May 24, 2023, at 6:43 AM, RN 1 stated, I didn't know resident 3 had a fall. I didn't know he fell. We are supposed to be doing neuro checks when there is an unwitnessed fall. Honestly, I don't know how we were documenting on him after a fall. There is no neuro check sheet. The documentation we do, if unwitnessed, we do neuro checks. I have not made any notes regarding Resident 3's fall. During a review of the clinical records for Resident 3 with the Director of Nursing on May 24, 2023, at 2:22 PM, the DON stated The RN didn't know resident 3 was status post fall. He should have known, and he should have been doing neuro checks for the safety of the resident and per policy. The facility could not provide documentation that RN 1 completed neuro checks and or monitoring for medical changes after Resident 3's fall.
