Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to ensure the comprehensive Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment was accurately coded for three (Resident #114, #126, and #135.) of thirty-two sampled residents Residents Affected - Few Findings included: 1. An observation on 02/28/23 at 5:45 PM, showed Resident #126, who resided on the 100 hall, wandering down the 400 hallway. During an interview on 02/28/23 at 5:45 PM, the Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) identified Resident #126 as a wanderer and stated, he always stays on his path. A review of the facility's documentation revealed an Elopement Book which identified Resident #126 as an elopement risk. Photogenic evidence was obtained. An observation on 03/01/23 at 11:55 AM, showed Resident #126 wandering down the 400 hallway. A record review of Resident #126's medical record showed a care plan with a focus of potential for elopement with exit seeking thoughts that was initiated on 12/09/22.
