The failed practice had the potential to affect an isolated number of residents. Resident identifier: #47. Facility census: 98. Findings include: a) Resident #47 An interview with Resident #47 on 08/03/17 at 10:00 a.m. revealed she had been moved to a new room without any notice. The resident stated she could not remember the exact date but the move recently took place. The resident stated she had left her room to visit another resident and upon returning the staff was moving her belongings to a room across the hall. The resident stated she became very upset because nobody told her she was switching rooms. An interview with Licensed Social Worker (LSW) #15 on 08/03/17 at 10:45 a.m. revealed a resident is supposed to be contacted before a room change occurs in order to provide options and to ease the transition for the resident. The LSW stated she did not contact Resident #47 before the room change on 07/03/17 because she was unaware the resident was switching rooms until the change was completed. An interview with the Administrator on 08/08/17 at 12:00 p.m. revealed she is the one who ordered the room change to occur on 07/03/17. The Administrator stated she let the resident's daughter know about the change and instructed the nursing staff to inform the resident. The Administrator stated she cannot be certain if the nursing staff informed the resident prior to the room change. A review of Resident #47's medical record on 08/08/17 at 12:30 p.m. revealed no indication the resident was informed of the room change prior to it occurring.
