**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, medical record review and interviews, the facility staff failed to provide resident with a bed mattress to meet the residents preferred comfort level to facilitate a restful night sleep. Resident# 478. Findings included Resident# 478 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. During a resident interview on 7/12/18, at 10:30 AM the resident stated staff provides pain medication for pain experienced because the bed is too hard and it feels like someone is poking her and nothing has been done about the issue. An observation of the mattress on 7/12/18, at 10:30 AM showed the mattress to be inflated and the blower based pump (located at the foot of the bed) was operational. Review of the Comprehensive Minimum (MDS) data set [DATE], showed Section C (Cognitive Patterns) C0500-Brief Interview Mental Score (BIMS) of 15 (indicating the resident is cognitively intact). Section G (Functional Status) G0400-Functional Limitation in Range of Motion Resident was coded as 1 which indicates impairment on one side (upper extremity) and coded as 2 which indicates impairment on both sides (lower extremity). A review of the medical record on 7/12/18, at 11:30 AM showed a Social Work Progress Note dated 5/3/18, read Resident expressed concern with the shower chair is too hard to set on, shower bed unable to fit on due to her size (sic). During an interview on 7/12/18, at 1:00 PM with Employee# 4, confirmed that the resident had concerns about the bed mattress. Employee#4 further stated that the facility stopped using the Hoyer lift and follow-up on the mattress was pending. However, the Employee was not aware of the resident's concern about the shower chair or shower bed. The medical record lacked documented evidence that the facility addressed Resident #478's concern of a hard mattress which caused back pain. During a face-to-face interview on 7/12/18 at 2:00 P, Employees #2 and #4 acknowledged the finding. |
