During an interview on 03/14/2025 at 01:49 p.m., CNA B revealed for new residents she would not receive a report on the new resident's ADL needs from a nurse or be provided any documentation. She stated that the nurse would receive a report, but she would typically have to ask the resident directly and learn about the resident's needs through observation. She stated if she did receive any type of report, it would come from the CNA leaving from the prior shift; however, she stated that the prior shift CNA would typically be gone or leaving at the time of her arrival for her shift, and they would not do a shift-to-shift report.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During an interview on 03/14/2025 at 05:11 p.m., LPN F revealed for her part of the baseline care plan, she would receive a detailed report from the transferring hospital for continuation of care and upload the nurse-to-nurse report to the new resident's chart. She stated following that step, the direct care nurse would initiate a nurse admission assessment and one of the facility RNs, typically the CNO or RN E would open a baseline care plan. She stated that once she completed the nurse-to-nurse report and the medication reconciliation and the direct-care nurse completed the head-to-toe assessment, the RN would initiate the care plan with the information from those documents and may ask clarifying questions if needed. She stated she would give a physical copy of the nurse-to-nurse report to the direct care staff. She stated that if direct care staff did not have consistent knowledge of a resident's ADL needs, it would impact the resident greatly because their care would be inconsistent.

She revealed the baseline care plan would have any information that the facility had captured for the resident, including generally having the initial therapy evaluations. She stated it might include if the resident required a Hoyer transfer, needed feeding assistance, or the resident's ability to walk. She stated the baseline care plan would include whatever information the facility knew about the resident. She stated ADL needs were communicated to direct-care staff verbally, on the nurse-to-nurse report sheet, and during CNA-to-CNA walking rounds. She stated the CNAs going off shift were supposed to do a verbal report and walking round with the CNAs coming on shift prior to leaving. She stated that if there were any changes in the resident's status or needs, the ACNO would let their staff know. She revealed that if the direct care staff's knowledge of a resident's needs were inconsistent, it could cause harm.

She stated that if a resident refused their weight to be taken, the staff should document that the resident refused. She stated that Resident #2 had a history of refusing a lot of things and it was likely that he refused his weight to be taken on Tuesday, 03/11/2025 and they should have tried to obtain it at a different time that day. She said that she wanted to say that the staff tried to obtain his weight three or four times, but she did not know if the staff documented that he refused. She stated the impact of the staff not obtaining his weight would be that his weight was not being tracked or monitored and then the staff would have no way of knowing if the resident had gained or lost weight over a course of time. She stated that the staff needed to document a refusal because it would show that they attempted to obtain a weight.
