F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and interview, the facility failed to develop a base line care plan that included the instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care of the resident, for one Resident (Resident #2) of four residents reviewed for base line care plans. The facility failed to timely and accurately assess resident's care plan needs. 1. Resident #2's baseline care plan problem start dates and approach dates for Residents #2's were dated 22 days and 21 days, respectively, prior to her admission to the facility. 2. Resident #2's care plan failed to address her preferred language, incontinent care, delirium, cognitive loss/dementia, activity preferences, and communication needs. 3. The care plan failed to address that Resident #2's functional abilities and goals reflected the use of the mobility device walker, and not a wheelchair. These failures could affect all residents by placing them at risk for not receiving care and services to meet their needs. Findings included: Review of the undated face sheet for Resident #2 reflected an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis of wedge compression fracture of first lumbar vertebra, need for assistance with personal care, unsteadiness on feet, abnormalities of gait and mobility, repeated falls, chronic pain syndrome, and cognitive communication deficit.

Resident complained of pain on left wrist. Administered as needed pain medication. Notified hospice nurse and neuro check initiated.

An interview on 08/25/24 at 4:15 pm with LVN A revealed she was notified by resident's roommate that Resident #1 fell. Resident #1 said she went to the restroom then tried to transfer from the wheelchair to the bed and fell. LVN A revealed Resident #1's wheelchair was not locked. LVN A revealed there was no floor mat on the floor, and they needed a floor mat. She revealed Resident #1 fell by her bed and a floor mat would have helped her during her fall. LVN revealed she did not see any floor mat; Resident #1 had never had a floor mat in her room. Observation on 08/25/25 at 4:15 pm revealed LVN A looked all around and in the closets, and in Resident #1's room, but did not locate a mat. An interview on 08/25/24 at 4:07 pm with LVN B revealed she often took care of Resident #1 and Resident #1 was next to the bed when she fell. She revealed Resident #1 had fall interventions, but she did not see the fall mat in the room when Resident #1 fell and could not recall the last time she saw the fall mat. She revealed it was a problem that that intervention was not there because Resident #1 tried to get up, and she was not in the right mind to know her limitations. LVN B thought the fall mat was a great thing when Resident #1 was in the bed because she had a history of falls and a history of injury, so it was important for interventions to be in place. An interview on 08/25/24 at 4:45 pm with the Administrator revealed Resident #1 was care planned for a mat beside her bed.
