The facility failed to ensure Resident #1's RP was notified when Resident #1 was found sitting up in bed with his midline IV (flexible catheter inserted into a vein in the arm) removed from his left arm on 12/03/25, which resulted in his arm having to be elevated and wrapped to lessen any swelling and bleeding.
