Summary
A resident with diagnoses including acute kidney failure and obstructive and reflux uropathy had an indwelling catheter and a care plan directing staff to provide catheter care every shift. Review of the resident's clinical record showed a lack of documentation for indwelling catheter care during the night shift from June 11 through June 13, 2025. Interviews with staff confirmed that catheter care was expected to be provided every shift, and the facility's policy required catheter care at least twice daily for residents with indwelling catheters. The deficiency was identified due to the absence of documented catheter care for the specified period.
