The facility failed to ensure Resident #1's weights were documented in his medical record for 4 of 5 weeks (weeks of 03/13/2025, 03/20/2025, 03/27/2025, and 04/03/2025) reviewed.

F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few at risk for weight changes due to having edema (swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in the body's tissues) and was taking a diuretic (type of medication that increases urine production to help reduce fluid buildup and lower blood pressure). During an interview with Resident #1 on 06/03/2025 at 03:36 p.m., Resident #1 revealed he did not know if he had lost weight since his admission to the facility. He revealed he believed he could probably use some weight loss. During an interview on 06/06/2025 at 04:12 p.m., the DON revealed resident weights were to be taken when they first admitted , weekly for up to four weeks, and then monthly if the resident's weight was stable. She revealed residents continued to be weighed weekly if their weight was unstable. She revealed Resident #1 was weighed, but she would have to look for the weights documented on paper. She revealed the only reason for his weights to not be in the EMR was if she had forgotten to enter them into the system. She revealed at the time, she was working on her own for this task, since the ADON had not started yet. She revealed she did not believe the resident's care would have been impacted by his weights not having been recorded in the EMR. She revealed the nurses would have still had known Resident #1's weight because they received copies of the weights documented on paper. During an interview on 06/06/2025 at 04:37 p.m., the ADMIN revealed weights not entered into the EMR would impact how the facility determined if a resident had weight loss or weight gain. She revealed the reports the facility ran for weight triggered, weight loss and weight gain, used an algorithm based on the weights entered into the EMR. Record review of the facility's handwritten weight documentation, received 06/06/2025, reflected: - Weekly Weights, dated 03/10/2025, included Resident #1's name and a weight, - documentation listing resident names and weights, dated 03/19/2025, included Resident #1's name and a weight, - March Weights, undated, included Resident #1's name and a weight, and - Weekly Weights, dated April 2025, included Resident #1's name and a weight. Record review of the facility's policy, Weight Management, dated reviewed 12/09/2024, reflected: Procedure .2. New admits will be weighed weekly for the first 4 weeks to establish baseline weights, after which they will be weighed monthly .4. Facility will ensure that weights are recorded in the EMR and use paper documentation if the EMR system is down.
