- D Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered.
Inspectors wroteBased on interview and record review the facility failed to provide Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notices (SNF-ABN) to 1 of 4 residents (Resident 65) reviewed for beneficiary notices. The failure to provide residents the information regarding changes in their Medicare services, including potential financial liability and appeal rights, deterred residents from exercising their right to decide on continuation of skilled services and costs associated, as required by the Medicare Program.
- D PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Inspectors wroteBased on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR - a screening process for residents who have indicators of intellectual disability, related disability, or serious mental illness) was followed for 1 (Resident 75) of 6 residents reviewed for PASRR. The facility failed to ensure a PASRR Level I was corrected upon admission to include serious mental illness which would have required a PASRR Level II (a more in-depth screening). This failure placed the resident at risk of not receiving the appropriate mental health services needed and placed them at risk for diminished quality of life.
- D Ensure residents do not lose the ability to perform activities of daily living unless there is a medical reason.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide the appropriate services to maintain and ensure that resident's ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) do not diminish, for two of three (Resident 17 & 74) residents reviewed as non English speaking residents. The facility failed to implement the use of alternative communication methods, such as a communication board in the language they understood to ensure their needs were met consistently. This failure placed the residents at risk of experiencing a decline in their physical well-being, psychosocial well-being, and their quality of life.
- D Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide hygiene according to resident needs and preferences for 2 of 4 residents (Resident 65 & 100) reviewed for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) for dependent residents. The failure to provide oral care and supplies to Resident 65 or provide showers and facial hair trimming to Resident 100 placed both residents at risk for poor self-esteem, isolation from others, infection, and diminished quality of life.
- D Provide activities to meet all resident's needs.
Inspectors wroteBased on observations, interview, and record review the facility failed to communicate and implement individualized activity plans for 1 of 3 (Resident 74) residents reviewed for activities. Failure to consistently implement group or individual activity plans left the resident at risk for boredom, isolation, and a diminished quality of life.
- D Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure 1 of 6 (Resident 52) residents reviewed for Restorative Nursing Programs (RNP) received the care and services they were assessed to require. These failures placed residents at risks for declines in Range of Motion (ROM) or functional status, and other negative health outcomes.
- D Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure medications were secured for 3 of 25 (Resident 36, 74, & 89) residents observed with medications left in their rooms. This failure placed residents at risk for receiving wrong medications, and non-assessed, self-administration of medications by residents.
- D Provide or get specialized rehabilitative services as required for a resident.
Inspectors wroteBased on interview and record review the facility failed to provide Specialized Rehabilitative (Rehab) Services according to Physician Orders (POs) for 1 of 3 residents (Resident 65) reviewed for therapy services. The failure to provide physical and occupational therapy to Resident 65 placed them at risk for decline in physical and functional mobility, deterioration of muscle strength and diminished quality of life.
