### The case

Ruth is a resident at Maple Ridge Care Center, a made-up facility. She moved in on March 4, 2024, after a hip fracture. On April 12, 2024, a nurse noted a small wound on her lower back. On May 2, 2024, she went to the hospital with a deep wound. She came back on May 9, 2024.

Dana is a legal nurse consultant. An attorney asked her to review the chart. She has the facility chart, the hospital records and the ambulance run sheet.

### Step 1: Set up the case

Dana created a case and picked **Nursing Home Neglect** . She uploaded the files. When the case showed **Needs confirming** , the **Confirm case details** window opened.

| Field | What Dana entered |
| --- | --- |
| Facility | Maple Ridge Care Center |
| Admission period | March 4, 2024 to the present |
| Incident type | Pressure ulcer |
| Date of Admission | March 4, 2024 |

She pressed **Add date** for May 2, 2024, with the note "sent to hospital". She added May 9, 2024, with the note "back from hospital". She pressed **Confirm and continue** . See [set up a nursing home case](https://medrecords.ai/help/case-types/nursing-home/setup/).

### Step 2: Check what is missing

The missing records list showed 1 item: a wound clinic visit that a nurse note mentioned. Dana pressed **Request from provider** and sent the draft from her own email.

Then she checked each month by hand. She filtered the Documents Index 1 month at a time and searched "flowsheet". March and May had aide flowsheets. April had none. That is the month the wound started. She added a note to say so. See [check whether the MDS, care plans and flowsheets are there](https://medrecords.ai/help/case-types/nursing-home/missing/).

### Step 3: Build the wound timeline

Dana made 2 flags: "Skin" and "Care plan". On the **Timeline** tab, she picked **Keywords** and added "Braden", "stage", "wound" and "turn". She chose **Any** and stepped through with **Date by date** .

Her notes, all from the source pages:

1. March 4, 2024: Braden score 14 on admission.
2. March 5, 2024: care plan says turn every 2 hours.
3. April 12, 2024: nurse note, small open area on the lower back.
4. April 26, 2024: wound larger, dietitian not yet seen.
5. May 2, 2024: ambulance run sheet and hospital note describe a deep wound.

She clicked each event to open the highlighted source page. She flagged each 1.

### Step 4: Ask questions

Dana asked, "List every Braden score with its date." The answer cited 3 pages. She opened each citation and found 1 score she had missed.

She then asked, "When was the doctor told about the wound?" The answer cited a nurse note from April 14, 2024. She checked the page and added it to her notes.

### Step 5: Write and check the report

In **Report studio** , Dana made a Nursing Home Neglect Record Review and a Standard of Care Analysis. She pressed **Run Verification and Cross-Examination** on each. 1 claim came back Unsupported. She fixed it by hand.

### What Dana did not get from the app

- A finding of neglect. She wrote her own opinion for the attorney.
- F-tags or rules. The attorney looked those up.
- Staffing levels. The app does not pull PBJ staffing data.
- An automatic list of missed turns. She found the April gap herself.
