F 0712 Ensure that the resident and his/her doctor meet face-to-face at all required visits. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the Attending Physician (AP) visited one of three sampled residents (Resident 1) timely. Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice had the potential to result in an undetected decline in medical, health or psychosocial condition and can lead to a delay in necessary care, treatment and services. Findings: During a record review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 1 on 10/25/2019, with diagnoses that included hypertensive (HTN-high blood pressure) chronic kidney disease (a long-term condition where the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter blood properly.), diabetes mellitus (DM-a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing) and epilepsy (a disorder of the brain characterized by repeated seizures [abnormal electrical activity in your brain that temporarily affects your consciousness, muscle control and behavior]. During a record review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 6/13/2024, the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a record review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 9/23/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 1's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decisions was intact. During an interview on 11/25/2024, at 10:21 am with Resident 1, Resident 1 stated he had never seen his AP for a long time.

During a record review of Resident 2's Physician Order, dated 9/12/2024, the Physician Order indicated controlled carbohydrate diet (carefully monitoring and keeping the amount of carbohydrates you eat each day relatively the same, usually to help manage blood sugar levels, by eating similar portions of carbohydrate rich foods at every meal), regular texture, thin regular liquid consistency, non-fat milk, eight ounces with meals and large portion with all meals. During a record review of Resident 2's Care Plan related to DM, dated 3/4/2024, the Care Plan indicated an intervention to provide diet as ordered. During an interview on 11/25/2024, at 9:44 a.m., with Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1), CNA 1 stated she (CNA 1) does not inform the charge nurses assigned when Resident 2 requested for a second plate of food because Resident 2 was alert and had a good appetite. CNA 1 stated she (CNA 1) did not know if Resident 2 was diabetic. CNA 1 stated she (CNA 1) should have checked and asked the charge nurse before requesting food in the kitchen.
