Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was properly informed of her rights and provided with the required admission paperwork. During interviews, the resident stated she was unaware of her rights and had not received or signed an admission packet. Review of the clinical record showed an admission packet was signed electronically by both the Social Services Director and the resident, but the resident later stated the signature was not hers. The Social Services Director confirmed that residents sign admission packets electronically and are only given a copy if they request it. The facility's policy requires healthcare professionals to make prompt, factual, and complete documentation entries.
