7 ST LUKE'S ELMORE LONG TERM CARE 135006 895 NORTH 6TH EAST MOUNTAIN HOME ID 83647 2020-01-24 700 D 0 1 JSJS11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, record review, and staff interview, it was determined the facility failed to ensure a resident was appropriately assessed and a consent was obtained prior to installing bed rails. This was true for 1 of 8 residents (Resident #13) reviewed for bed rails. This failure created the potential for harm from entrapment or injury related to the use of bed rails. Findings include: Resident #13 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with multiple [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 1/21/20 at 3:31 PM, Resident #13 was observed in her room laying in bed with 2 bed rails up. Resident #13's MDS assessments, dated 3/25/19, 6/25/19, and 9/25/19, documented Resident #13 used bed rails daily as physical restraints. Resident #13's record included a bed rail assessment, dated 3/15/19, that was blank. Resident #13's chart did not include a current quarterly bed rail assessment. There was no risk versus benefit discussion documented in Resident #13's record or a consent for use of the bed rails by Resident #13. On 1/24/20 at 10:45 AM, the Administrator stated Resident #13 did not have a consent for the use of bed rails, the bed rails were not care planned, and her MDS assessment was inaccurate. 2020-09-01
