Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on clinical record review, policy review, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to assess bladder incontinence and provide services to restore bladder function as much as possible for one of 36 sampled residents. (Resident 133)
Findings include: Review of the facility policy entitled, Bowel and Bladder Management, last reviewed October 20, 2024, revealed that facility staff was to complete a urinary incontinence assessment upon admission and whenever there was a change in a resident's urinary tract function. Staff would review the pre-admission history, assess the resident's current bladder elimination problem, and identify causes of incontinence. If there was a change in incontinence staff would implement a toileting diary to determine a resident's voiding pattern for assistance in decision making and development of a toileting program. The type of urinary incontinence was to be identified in the care plan with specific interventions. Clinical record review revealed that Resident 133 was admitted to the facility with diagnoses that included hypertension (high blood pressure) and anxiety. A Bowel and Bladder Program Screener was completed on October 19, 2024, and indicated that the resident was a candidate for a scheduled toileting program. According to the Minimum Data Set assessment, dated October 22, 2024, the resident needed assistance from staff for toileting, was always incontinent of urine, and was not on a toileting program. Review of the current care plan revealed that Resident 133's type of urinary incontinence was not identified and there was no indication that the resident was on a scheduled toileting program. There was no documented evidence that a scheduled toileting program had been implemented. In an interview on November 21, 2024, at 11:20 a.m., the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed that there was no documented evidence that a toileting program was implemented for Resident 133. 28 Pa.
