home.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility
failed to provide the quarterly trust fund statements to one of two residents reviewed for personal funds
(Resident 5). This failure had the potential for loss and misuse of Resident 5's personal funds.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Management of Residents' Personal Funds revised 3/2021 showed
should the facility be appointed the resident's representative payee, and directly receive monthly benefits to
which the resident is entitled, such funds are managed in accordance with established policies and
federal/state requirements.
On 1/2/25 at 0833 hours, an interview was conducted with Resident 5. Resident 5 stated she did not
remember receiving her quarterly trust fund statement from the BOM. Resident 5 stated she had not
received any statements from the facility or the BOM in years. Resident 5 further stated she probably
received her statement when she got admitted in the facility and started her trust account.
Medical record review for Resident 5 was initiated on 1/2/25. The Resident 5 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 5's H&P examination dated 9/11/24, showed Resident 5 had the capacity to make
medical decisions.
Review of Resident 5's MDS dated [DATE], showed Resident 5 was cognitively intact.
Review of Resident 5's Trust Statement for September 2024 showed the amount of money debited and
credited from Resident 5's money with a closing balance.
On 1/2/25 at 0904 hours, a telephone interview and concurrent facility document review was conducted
with the Account Receivable Consultant. The Account Receivable Consultant stated she worked offsite and
managed the resident's trust account. The Account Receivable Consultant stated the quarterly statement
for Resident 5 was printed on 10/31/24; however, she was not able to verify if it was handed to the resident.
On 1/2/25 at 0935 hours, a telephone interview was conducted with the BOM. The BOM verified Resident 5
had a trust fund (funds that belong to the resident, such as social security checks, pension checks or
personal funds) handled by the facility. The BOM stated she was responsible for providing the
