Based on record review and staff interview, the facility failed to issue CMS Form 10055 (SNFABN) for 2 of 3
sampled residents, whose discharge from Medicare Part A was initiated by the facility, whose benefit days
were not exhausted, and who remained in the facility (Resident #41 and Resident #171).
Residents Affected - Some
The findings included:
A) A review of Resident #41's Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice (SNFABN)
documentation showed that Resident #41's Medicare Part A start date was 03/14/22, and the last covered
day for Medicare Part A was 04/02/22. The facility initiated the resident's discharge from Part A when the
resident's benefit days were not exhausted, and the resident remained in the facility. A copy of CMS Form
10123 (NOMNC) was provided to the resident/family on 03/30/22. The CMS Form 10055 (SNF ABN)
should have also been provided to the resident/family, as per regulatory requirement, but it was not.
B) A review of Resident #171's Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice (SNFABN)
documentation showed that Resident #171's Medicare Part A start date was 01/04/22, and the last covered
day for Medicare Part A was 01/24/22. The facility initiated the resident's discharge from Part A when the
resident's benefit days were not exhausted, and the resident remained in the facility. The resident's
daughter was notified via telephone on 01/21/21 and verbally provided the information contained on CMS
Form 10123 (NOMNC). Information from the CMS Form 10055 (SNF ABN) should have also been provided
to the resident's family, per regulation, but it was not. There was no documentation in the record showing
that copies of these forms were later mailed to the resident's family after the telephone notification.
On 06/09/22 at 5:10 PM, the Social Services Director confirmed the information regarding what
documentation was provided to Resident #41 and #171's family. The Social Worker was informed of the
requirement to provide both forms (CMS Form 10123-NOMNC and CMS Form 10055-SNF ABN) to any
resident who has a facility initiated discharge with benefit days not exhausted, and who remains in the
facility. She acknowledged the information provided.
On 06/09/22 at approximately 6:35 PM, the acting Administrator and acting DON (Director of Nursing) were
also informed of the failure to provide the CMS Form 10055 to Resident #41 and #171.

prevent resident to resident abuse involving 2 of 2 sampled residents, Residents #78 and #139.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include
On 06/06/2022 at approximately 11:30 AM, surveyor was present in the dining room during activities. Staff
L, a CNA (certified nursing assistant) and Staff M, an activity assistant, were also present. Resident #78
was seated at the main table in her wheelchair next to Resident #139. Resident #78 was somewhat
agitated and verbally lashing out in general, although her words were nonsensical. Resident #78 suddenly
grabbed Resident #139's right wrist and the lower part of her hand and was squeezing it tightly. Resident
#139 was grimacing, and other residents began yelling for help. Staff M was able to separate the two
residents. Resident #139 was visibly upset and rubbing her arm. She did not attempt to strike back or
retaliate in any way. Staff M then moved Resident #78 to the other side of Staff M's space so she was not
sitting next to any other residents. Resident #78 remained upset and agitated and at 11:50 AM, she was
taken back to her room by Staff L. At that time, Staff L, was asked if Resident #78 behaves like this often.
Staff L stated, Not often, she only gets like this when she is tired.

day before, said Resident #78 is known to be aggressive at times and stated, she will grab at anything
within her reach, even if it is a chair. While speaking, Staff L demonstrated grabbing an imaginary item in
front of her and shook it twice, imitating the resident's actions. She also said Resident #78 is known to be
aggressive and combative with the staff.
On 06/07/22 at 9:47 AM, during an interview with Staff N, the Unit Coordinator, she said she knows the
resident can be aggressive saying said the resident has been physically resistant and possibly even
combative with staff trying to provide care.
On 06/07/22 at 10:20 AM during an interview with Staff M, the Activity Assistant, she was asked about
Resident #78's behaviors and the incident the day before. She responded, Oh yes! Thats what she do.
Thats why she have one to one [sitter]; she can grab anyone, even staff. She also mentioned a previous
incident with Resident #78 where a nurse had been wearing long sleeves and was somehow assaulted by
Resident #78 to the extent that the nurse was bleeding from the arm when she pulled up her sleeve. She
further said, she get really upset, she always have one to one. She need a lot of attention.

disturbance, Unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition, Pain,
Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), Seizures and a History of Falls. The resident currently takes Aricept (for
dementia) and Seroquel (an antipsychotic).

all times (initiated 04/21/22). A second focus reads: Resident has a behavior problem of increased anxiety
with agitation, screaming and yelling at others. The goal is Resident will not experience behaviors that are
harmful to self and others through next review date (initiated 07/06/21 and last revised 03/10/22). The
relevant interventions listed include: Anticipate the resident's needs and Intervene as necessary to protect
the rights and safety of others, Remove from situation and take to alternate location as needed. Both
interventions were initiated on 07/06/21 for this resident which indicates a known behavior or risk to others.
Review of the record for Resident #139 showed receiving hospice care. The most recent comprehensive
assessment on 05/11/22 showed her BIMS score was unable to be assessed due to her complete cognitive
deficit. She has diagnoses of dementia without behavioral disturbance, generalized anxiety disorder,
depression, and unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition. She does
not take an antipsychotic medication. Review of her care plan did not reveal any indication of agitation or
aggressive behaviors however, one careplan read, The resident is dependent on staff for meeting
emotional, intellectual, physical, and social needs related to cognitive deficits and immobility, (Initiated on
07/12/2021). Resident is not able to make her own decisions or physically move herself away from any
