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 medical record review, resident representative interview, staff interview, review of witness statements, and review of a self-reported incident, the facility failed to maintain accurate documentation in the medical record.

On 05/14/23, on night shift the ring was not documented as checked, and again on 05/15/23 and 05/16/23, both shifts the ring was documented as observed to be in place by staff.

Review of a witness statement, dated 05/17/23, revealed Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #211 reported on 05/14/23 Resident #19's daughter came in and asked about a ring the resident did not have on.

Review of a witness statement, dated 05/16/23, revealed Registered Nurse (RN) #222 stated she had not seen Resident #19's ring since 05/12/23. Review of a witness statement, dated 05/18/23, revealed LPN #242 had not seen Resident #19's ring and did not recall the last time she saw it. Interview on 05/22/23 at 5:17 P.M. with Resident #19's representative reported when visiting Resident #19 on Sunday 05/14/23 they realized the sapphire ring was not on Resident #19's finger.

The last time Resident #19's representative observed the ring was in March 2023 when visiting last.
