32 | [CONTINUED FROM LIC 9099]
According to R1’s LIC602 Physician’s Report and corroborated by their Needs and Services Plan: R1 required staff assistance with bathing and dressing, among other Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).
Dated-stamped and time-stamped facility progress notes, corroborated by an outside source interview, showed: On the day R1 was issued their new leg wrap devices (i.e., Day 1), facility staff contacted R1’s physician’s office for clarification about how they were to be worn. Not having received clarification, facility staff contacted R1’s physician’s office again on Day 3 and Day 15, respectively, without answer. R1’s responsible person was also notified about the problem. On Day 20, facility staff received clarification from the physician: R1 was to wear the leg wrap devices between 16 to 20 hours per day (which is not 24/7 as the complainant had alleged). Thereafter, progress notes show that facility staff supported R1 with this care need.
Based on interviews and records, a preponderance of evidence does not exist to prove that Licensee did not meet R1’s care need. The allegation is therefore unsubstantiated.
An exit interview was conducted with Turner, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided. |
