The facility failed to document the circumstances of Resident #1's change of condition when found unresponsive and the staff's reaction and intervention of CPR to his medical emergency. This failure to maintain accurate records could affect all residents by receiving incorrect services because of confusion by staff in determining what part of the clinical record was accurate. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's Face Sheet, dated [DATE], revealed a [AGE] year-old-male with an admission date of [DATE] and a discharge date of [DATE] after he expired. Diagnoses included Cerebral Infarction (occurs as a result of disrupted blood flow to the brain due to problems with the blood vessels that supply it), Abnormalities (abnormal features) of gait (manner of walking) and mobility (the ability to move), Coronary (relating to arteries) Atherosclerosis (thickening or hardening of the arteries) Heart Disease of Native Coronary Artery (15 angiographic segments and 3 arterial trunks for analysis of progression of coronary artery disease), and Hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body). Record review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS, dated [DATE], reveal Resident #1 had a BIMS score of 13, indicating intake cognitive response. In the section of functional status, Resident #1 minimum supervision and setup only in the areas of bed mobility, transfer, and eating. During an interview on [DATE] at 12:15 p.m., the ADON said she had worked at the facility since the facility had opened. The ADON said she was present at the facility on [DATE] when Resident #1 was found unresponsive and had passed away. The ADON said she had observed Resident #1 the morning of [DATE], but she could not remember the exact time and said he had no symptoms or complaints. The ADON said TNA A went into Resident #1's room and reported she found him unresponsive. The ADON said TNA A called for help and requested 911 be called immediately. The ADON said she checked the advanced directive book located at the nurses' station and determined Resident #1 was full code and immediately went down to Resident #1's room to report his full code status. The ADON said she assisted another staff to lower Resident #1 to the floor and TNA A started CPR procedure. The ADON said she called 911 on her cell phone. The ADON said she witnessed CPR performed on Resident #1 until the paramedics arrived. The ADON said she did not document the information in Resident #1's clinical records.
