Summary
The facility failed to complete a restorative nursing ambulation program as ordered for one resident. Clinical record review showed that the resident was to be ambulated with extensive assistance of two staff for 20-40 feet using a front wheeled walker, with a third person following with a wheelchair, and this was to occur during the day shift. Documentation for the resident's restorative ambulation program in August 2025 indicated that staff marked the intervention as not applicable (NA) on multiple dates without providing any explanation. Further review and interviews with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing confirmed that there was no additional staff documentation to account for the missed ambulation sessions.
