F 0700 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to assess residents for the use of bedrails for two (R26 and R61) of six residents reviewed for bedrails in the sample of 26. Findings include: The facility's Proper Use of Bed Assistive Devices policy and procedure dated 1/30/24, documents The purposes of these guidelines are to ensure the safe use of bed Assistive devices as resident mobility aids and to prohibit the use of bed assistive devices as restraints unless necessary to treat a resident's medical symptoms. Bed assistive devices include side rails, assist rails, and other bed positioning devices. An assessment will be made to determine the resident's symptoms or reason for using the bed assistive device upon initiation, quarterly, and as needed. 1. On 12/10/24 at 10:46 am, there were quarter bed rails noted to each side of R26's bed in the up position. The Bed Assistive Device Assessment's for R26, dated 9/18/24 and 12/7/24 are blank and do not document an assessment having been completed for the use of R26's bed rails. Both assessments document no bed rails are being used for R26 and therefore, no consent is needed. 2. On 12/11/24 at 8:12 am, R61 was lying in bed with quarter bed rails in the upright position on bilateral sides of his bed. The Bed Assistive Device Assessments for R61, dated 11/4/24 and 12/5/24 are blank and do not document R61 being assessed for the use of bedrolls. On 12/12/24 at 11:30 am, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) confirmed bed rail assessments were not completed for R26 and R61 and stated he is unsure why they were not completed. On 12/12/24 at 12:23 pm, V2 DON confirmed that R61's bedrail assessment was not completed on 11/4/24 or 12/6/24 and is using this as an education opportunity for the Nurses.
