Review of Resident 1's evaluation and service plan dated 07/25/23, identified there was no documented evidence the resident had been evaluated for the ability to manage a key to his/her room. Additionally there was no documentation the resident's representative or designee had been offered a key or requested the resident's door to remain opened in lieu of security and privacy.

There was no documented evidence the facility immediately investigated the injury of unknown cause or that it was reported to the local SPD office. The need to immediately investigate injuries of unknown cause and if the facility was not able to reasonably conclude and document the physical injury was not the result of abuse, report the incident to the local SPD office was discussed with Staff 3 (Health Services Director) on 10/26/23 and Staff 1 (Administrator) on 10/27/23.
