C confirmed the air mattress was unplugged when they entered Resident 1's room. In an interview on 12/09/2025 at 2:29 PM, Staff D (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated they were with Staff C during the incident on 11/25/2025 and confirmed the air mattress was unplugged when they entered Resident 1's room. Staff D stated they do not know the last time when Resident 1's air mattress was checked for proper functioning. Review of the November 2025 Treatment Administration Record showed there was no physician order in place directing nursing staff to monitor Resident 1's air mattress for proper function and setting until 11/26/2025; after the incident occurred. In a joint interview and record review on 12/23/2025 at 12:02 PM with Staff A (Administrator) and Staff B (Director of Nursing), Staff A stated the use of an air mattress was important for wound healing. Staff B stated the nursing staff was responsible for checking the air mattress every shift for proper function and setting. Both staff reviewed Resident 1's medical records.
Staff B stated they could not determine when Resident 1's air mattress was checked last because there was no order to monitor the device prior to the incident on 11/25/2026. Staff B stated the order should have been, but was not, initiated on 11/17/2025; the day the air mattress was put in place according to the safety device assessment. REFERENCE: WAC 388-97-1060(3)(b)
