F 0842 Hypoxia(low oxygen content in the blood) Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm This is intended to serve as notice of an emergency transfer Residents Affected - Few Record review of the nurses note dated 5.12.25 indicated Resident #1 returned to the facility with a diagnoses of urinary tract infection at 1:39 PM on 5.12.25 Resident #1 was nonresponsive and unavailable for an interview at the time of the investigation. In an interview on 5.22.25 at 2:30 PM, Resident # 1's family member said she was not aware of Resident #1's transfer to the emergency room on 5.12.25 @ 10:38 AM when she experienced an altered mental status. She stated she found out the resident had a UTI when she visited the resident at the nursing facility later that day. In an interview on 5.23.25 at 11.43 AM RN A stated she thought she did notify Resident #1's family member of the transfer on 5.12.25 but if it was not documented, and the family member stated she did not notify her she could not state with certainty that she did notify her. She stated she failed to follow proper procedure by not documenting the event when it occurred which could result in an inaccuracy in the care the resident received. In an interview on 5.23.25 at 11:50 AM the DON stated she was in the facility and she and another nurse were present and assisted with the transfer. She stated it was her expectation that resident information was documented in a resident's record at the time it occurred. She stated if documentation were not made a late entry could be made at a later date and identified as a late entry with the date and time the event occurred and the time and date the documentation was created. Record review of the facility's policy, Documentation not dated, revealed [in part]: Documentation is the recording of all information, both objective and subjective, in the clinical record of an individual resident. The facility will maintain complete and accurate documentation for each resident. The facility will ensure that information is comprehensive and timely and properly signed. Complete documentation in the electronic health record in a timely manner. 455968 Page 2 of 2
