Which of the following occurrences is considered an incident that requires a report?

An incident that requires a report is defined as an event that can result in harm or is outside the normal course of care. When a resident accuses a nurse aide (NA) of abusing her, this is a serious allegation that poses a potential risk to the resident’s safety and well-being. It must be documented and reported immediately to ensure that appropriate actions can be taken to investigate the claim, protect the resident, and address any issues surrounding the care provided.

The other occurrences listed do not meet the criteria for incidents requiring a report. A resident successfully completing therapy reflects a positive outcome and doesn't require reporting. A family member visiting during care is a typical part of the resident's experience and does not indicate any unusual events. Similarly, a routine check-up is a standard procedure in healthcare and does not constitute an incident that might cause concern for safety or care quality.
