-If the resident was receiving therapy services, the therapists would be consulted regarding the benefit of the resident getting a grab bar on their bed.
-If it was determined the grab bar would be beneficial for the resident, a maintenance work request was to be entered into the electronic maintenance management system (TELS), and the maintenance staff would install the grab bars on the resident's bed.
*An entrapment evaluation was to be completed on admission.
*The Physical Device and/or Restraint Evaluation and Review was to be completed quarterly, annually, and with a significant change by the MDS nurse.

Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or *Grab bars or assist bars provide a sturdy and secure handhold to assist residents in repositioning and safety getting in and out of bed.
Residents Affected - Few *Conditions such as agitation, delirium, pain, confusion, incontinence, or uncontrolled body movements can cause the resident to be more active in bed or attempt to get out of bed. The proper sizing of the mattress,
the fit and integrity of the bed rail or other design elements such as wide spaces between the bars in the rail can also increase the risk for resident entrapment, injury and in some instances death.
*The purpose of the Bed Safety-Including Bed Rails/Side Rails/Assist Bars P&P [policy and procedure] is to: promote bed safety with the appropriate use of bed rails when used for medical necessity to reduce the risk of entrapment as well as the least restrictive alternative to side rails.
*It is important to remember that not all rails and mattresses fit all bed frames.
*Inspect the bed system for:
-Proper installation of side rails or assistive devices such as grab bars.
-Rails or assistive devices designed for the bed frame manufacturer.
-Rails or assistive devices that meet the design elements of bed safety standards to avoid entrapment injuries or death.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or *She felt she was interrupted multiple times per shift during medication passes because of resident potential for actual harm behaviors that required intervention.
Residents Affected - Some *She thought the frequent interruptions to staff responsible for medication administration contributed to some of the medication errors that had been happening in that unit because it was challenging for them to maintain their focus on administering medication.
