This affected one resident (Resident #278) of one resident reviewed for indwelling catheters. The facility identified two residents residing in the facility with use of indwelling urinary catheters. Findings Include: Review of Resident #278's medical record revealed an admission date of 05/24/19 with a diagnosis including benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). Review of the resident's comprehensive Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] indicated the resident was alert and oriented and had an indwelling urinary catheter. Review of Resident #278's admission Immediate Need/Baseline Care Plan revealed the resident had an impaired urinary elimination pattern due to an enlarged prostate and needed an indwelling urinary catheter.
