responsible for ensuring nurses documented urine output and nursing management reviewed documentation every morning. Staff were trained on monitoring and documenting resident vitals, which included output. The DON said the facility had a problem entering documents right away and that was something they would work on. Interview with the Administrator on 10/23/2025 at 12:42 PM, he said urine output should have been monitored and if urine output was not monitored, the resident could be retaining fluids and maybe have clogged catheters. Staff would not know the amount of fluid coming in and leaving

the resident's body and if fluids were not leaving the resident's body it could be a sign of renal issues.

Output needed to be monitored as ordered by the physician. Record review of the facility's policy on change

in a resident's condition or status, last revised April 2025, reflected it did not cover accurate documentation

in resident records.
