Fracture - Significant Change

To all EXPERTS,

I have a resident that had a fx of the left humerus with a soft cast on 2/11. No changes in ADL despite the fx, she is a 3--2 in most adls. I opened a quarterly on 3/13 and the nurse who completed it, did not add the fx in Section I.

Question:

1. Since, there was no adl change, but there was a fx, should I have opened a sig change instead?

2. Do I ALWAYS have to do a sig. change for ANY fracture to be on the safe side?

THANK YOU!!!
