Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's undated face sheet indicated he was a [AGE] year-old male that admitted [DATE] with diagnoses that included: Cerebral infarction (a stroke, death of brain tissue caused by a blockage of blood flow to the brain leading to lack of oxygen to the brain), mild cognitive impairment due to unknown etiology (subtle but measurable decline in memory and thinking), metabolic encephalopathy (a brain disorder caused by an underlying systemic illness affecting the body's metabolism characterized by changes in mental status, including confusion, memory problems, and altered behavior), and hemiplegia and hemiparesis affecting left dominant side (mild or partial weakness to complete paralysis of one side of the body). Record review of the significant change MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #1 had a BIMS score of 0, indicating severe cognitive impairment. The MDS indicated he had behavioral symptoms daily that was not directed toward others. He was totally dependent on staff for transfer.

The bed was against one wall and the fall mat was propped up against the other wall. Someone had moved it and not put it back. She said she assessed him and saw no skin tears or injuries; however, he said his left knee hurt. He refused any medication for pain. She said when she left her shift that day (6/30/25) the X-ray technician was there to get the X-ray of Resident #1's knee.

She said since the fall mat was not in place, he did not have anything soft to land on. The risk of not having his fall mat placed properly was injury. The ADM said Resident #1 was care planned for the fall mat and staff [BH2] did not follow the care plan. They did not know who moved the fall mat and did not return it to the floor beside Resident #1's bed.
