week and skilled nurse was once a week. RN 2 verified the above findings. RN 2 stated this was her first
time checking the hospice binder. RN 2 stated she was not responsible to check the hospice binder to make
sure hospice disciplines complete their visits. In addition, RN 2 stated she was not instructed nor expected
to document the hospice disciplines' visits. RN 2 stated the documentation was important and stated if it
was not documented, it was not done. Furthermore, RN 2 stated the negative outcome would be Resident
8 would not receive the ordered hospice care services. On 10/6/25 at 0936 hours, an interview was
conducted with LVN 6. LVN 6 stated Resident 8 was receiving hospice care. LVN 6 stated the hospice
skilled nurse and Hospice Aide would check in with her when she was assigned to Resident 8. LVN 6

once a week and the Hospice Aide must visit twice a week. The Hospice Case Manager stated when she
visited Resident 8, she would sign and document in Resident 8's hospice binder after each visit and the
Hospice Aide must sign the hospice binder. The Hospice Case Manager stated she did not monitor the
other assigned disciplines if they had completed their scheduled visits for Resident 8 since it was not her
responsibility to monitor. In addition, the Hospice Case Manager was informed of hospice sign in sheet,
which showed last visit of Hospice Aide was 8/14/25, and skilled nurse's last visit was 9/16/25. The Hospice
Case Manager stated she had visited Resident 8 last 9/24/25, however, she was not able to sign and

facility nurse's name who she checked in when she visited and she stated she did not get the facility
nurse's name, however, she knows their faces. The Hospice Case Manager stated since she did not get the
facility nurses' names whenever she visited Resident 8, she did not document which facility nurses she
checked in and received updates. The Hospice Case Manager stated another case manager visited
Resident 8 on 10/3/25, however, verified there was no documented evidence in Residents 8's hospice
binder of the mentioned visit. The Hospice Case Manager stated it was part of their training (hospice
provider) for the skilled nurses to sign in and document in the hospice staff communication note located in
Resident 8's hospice binder after each visit. Furthermore, the Hospice Case Manager stated if it was not
documented, it was not completed. On 10/6/25 at 1320 hours, an interview was conducted with the Hospice
Patient Care Manager. The Hospice Patient Care Manager stated all hospice disciplines including the
skilled nurses, hospice aides, social workers, chaplains and physicians must sign in the hospice binder and
facility to track who provided the care, which would show compliance with plan of care, coordination, and
communication with the facility. The Hospice Patient Care Manager stated there was a sign-in sheet and
staff communication notes in each of the hospice residents' binder, which must be filled out after each
hospice discipline visit. The Hospice Patient Care Manager stated all the hospice disciplines were informed
and oriented they must sign in the hospice binder with every visit. Furthermore, the Hospice Patient Care
Manager stated the Hospice Case Managers were responsible for checking the hospice binder of the
residents to make sure all involved disciplines including the Hospice Aide had completed their scheduled
visits every week. The Hospice Patient Care Manager stated he was not aware of the missing visits and
hospice staff not signing in for Resident 8. On 10/7/25 at 1411 hours, an interview and concurrent medical
record review for Resident 8 was conducted with the DON. The DON stated there was a hospice book for
each of the hospice resident and she expected all the hospice disciplines to sign in every visit. The DON
stated the charge nurses assigned to the hospice residents must document when the hospice nurses and
hospice aides visited. The DON stated the RN and LVNs assigned to the hospice residents were
responsible for checking if each hospice resident had received the scheduled visits from the hospice
disciplines, which must be documented in each of the resident's hospice binder under the sign in sheet
and/or staff communication note. In addition, the DON stated it was important for each hospice discipline to
sign in the hospice binder to show hospice services were provided to the hospice residents. The DON
stated if the charge nurses have checked the hospice binder and noted missing hospice visits, they should
inform the social services staff, who would follow up with the hospice company during the care conference.
Furthermore, the DON stated with hospice services not coming in the facility for hospice residents would
not have made any difference, however, the 1:1 support from hospice care would be missing. On 10/7/25 at
1540 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON and Administrator. The DON and Administrator were
informed and acknowledged the above findings.
