This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview, medical record review, and facility document review, the facility failed to implement their P&P and investigate an incident for one of two sampled residents (Resident 1) and one of three nonsampled residents (Resident B). * The facility failed to report and investigate an incident involving Resident B who was found lying in bed naked from the waist down with Resident 1 in Resident 1's bedroom. Failure to investigate the allegation of abuse had the potential to place vulnerable residents at increased risk of abuse and all residents not being protected against abuse. Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Abuse & Neglect Prohibition, under the section for Investigation showed the facility will timely conduct an investigation of any alleged abuse in accordance with the state law. Under the section for Reporting and Response, the facility will complete an incident/accident report on occurrences of abuse. The facility will report all allegations and substantiated occurrence of abuse in accordance to state law. Review of the form SOC 341 (used to report suspected adult/elder abuse) dated 8/3/17, showed Resident 1's hands were allegedly found inside Resident C's shirt touching her breasts. The SOC 341 dated 8/6/17, showed Resident 1 allegedly hit Resident A.

Findings: According to the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society (June 2005), an air-filled mattress compresses on the side to which a person moves, thus raising the center of the mattress and lowering the side. This may make it easier for a resident to slide off the mattress. Precautions may include following manufacturer equipment alerts and increasing supervision. Medical record review for Resident 2 was initiated on 8/11/17. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility on 10/22/14, with diagnoses including paraplegia and contractures.

Review of the Order Recap Report for August 2017 showed a physician's order dated 8/4/17, for a LAL mattress for pressure ulcer prevention. Review of the Service Document from the mattress company showed the LAL mattress was ordered and delivered for Resident 2 on 8/4/17. According to the LAL mattress manufacturer's specifications regarding safety information on resident migration, specialty bed products are designed to reduce/redistribute pressure and the shearing/friction forces on the resident's skin. The risk of inadvertent bed exit may be increased due to the nature of these products. Review of the plan of care did not show a care plan problem was developed or revised to address the safety precautions for the use of the LAL mattress. Review of the Incident/Accident Report prepared by RN 1 dated 8/5/17 at 2338 hours, showed CNA 8 was providing incontinence care to Resident 2 who was turned towards her right side. Resident 2 moved her arms, rolled off the mattress, and fell to the floor. Resident 2 sustained a skin tear on her upper lip and was later found to have a bruise on the right side of her face. The form stated the incident was also witnessed by RN 1. Review of the SBAR Communication Form and Progress Note dated 8/5/17, showed RN 1 notified Resident 2's physician at 2140 hours regarding Resident 2's fall.
