interview and medical record review, the facility failed to ensure the medical record was accurate for one of
two sampled residents (Resident 1). This failure posed the risk for Resident 1 to not receive the accurate
and necessary care.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Fall Incident Management and Intervention revised 10/2024 showed in
part, it is the policy .to promote resident's safety and prevent injury. The procedure section showed, fall risk
assessment and care plans updated for all residents at risk for falling and/or residents that have fallen more
than once.
Review of the facility's P&P titled Charting and Documentation revised 11/2023 showed all services
provided to the resident, progress toward the care plan goals, or any changes in the resident's medical,
physical, functional, or psychosocial condition shall be documented in the resident's medical record. The
policy interpretation and implementation section showed documentation in the medical record will be
objective, complete, and accurate.
Medical record review for Resident 1 was initiated on 12/19/24. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 1's MDS dated [DATE], showed Resident 1's cognition was moderately impaired.
Further review of Resident 1's MDS showed the resident had a fall in the last month prior to admission.
Review of Resident 1's progress note dated 12/10/24, showed Resident 1 was found lying on the floor by
the bed. Further review of the progress note showed Resident 1 stated she stood up and tripped on other
foot, then fell on the floor.
However, review of Resident 1's fall risk assessment dated [DATE], showed Resident 1 had no history of
falls within the last six months.
On 12/24/24 at 1138 hours, a concurrent interview and medical record review was conducted with LVN 1.
LVN 1 verified Resident 1's fall risk assessment was inaccurate. LVN 1 stated it should have been
documented as one to two times instead of no falls. LVN 1 further stated the licensed nurse did the fall risk
assessment. LVN 1 stated the fall risk assessment could be misinterpreted because of the inaccuracy.
