According to the MDS manual, a score of 13 indicated the resident was cognitively intact. Further review of
the MDS identified Resident 9 required supervision while eating and was dependent upon staff for all other activities of daily living including transfers and mobility.

An observation on 9/15/2025 at 11:45 AM revealed Resident 9 seated in the wheelchair in the main dining room. A standard foam cushion was in the seat of the wheelchair. No further positioning devices were present.

Record review of a facility policy entitled “Incident and Reportable Event Management” dated reviewed 9/25/24 revealed: -The Five “I's” to Event Management: -Intervention -1. The licensed nurse should implement an appropriate immediate intervention, based on the conclusions of the initial investigation. -2. The licensed nurse should update the resident care plan and communicate the intervention to the staff caring for the resident. -3.
