Interview with MDS N on 12/18/24 at 1:10 PM revealed MDS N said Resident #1 did not trigger for risk of falls during the initial admission assessments. MDS N said the fall risk evaluation on 11/15/24 indicated Resident #1 was at low risk for falls. MDS N said the initial baseline care plan indicated that Resident #1 was not at risk for falls which would then not trigger the comprehensive care plan to include risk for falls. MDS N said the assessing nurse should have indicated Resident #1 was at risk for falls on the initial baseline care plan based on the fall risk evaluation, which would have triggered the risk for falls on the comprehensive care plan. MDS N said if there was a fall mat placed by the nurses, then the staff should have communicated that with the team so the care plan could be updated. MDS N said the team was not notified that the fall mat was implemented. MDS N said the nurses implemented interventions at times based on their nursing judgement. MDS N said she was not sure who placed the fall mat. MDS N said a fall mat would be considered an intervention and the fall mat would need to be care planned. MDS N verified the fall mat was not care planned for Resident #1 and a risk of falls was not care planned for Resident #1. MDS N said it was important for the fall mat and the risk for falls to be care planned so that staff were aware of the resident's needs, knew how to care for the resident, ensured the intervention was implemented, and to avoid any incident.

The DON said although the risk was noted as low, the risk was still there and should have been care planned. The DON said Resident #1 was not negatively impacted by not having the risk for falls or the fall mat care planned. The DON said Resident #1 was at risk of the staff not knowing how to care for her. The DON said it was important for the fall mat and the risk for falls to be care planned to ensure the interventions were implemented and for the staff to know what to do for Resident #1 specific to her needs.
