Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must
establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review and interview, the facility failed to ensure prompt efforts were taken to resolve a grievance for
one (Resident #12) of one resident reviewed on the facility's grievance process.
Findings included:
A review of the facility's Grievance Log dated June 2023 showed an entry for Resident #12 dated 06/14/23.
The entry showed Resident #12's grievance was about Resident deliveries. The column on the grievance
form titled,disposition of grievance was left blank.
A review of Resident #12's Grievance Form dated 06/14/23 showed Resident indicted a package was
delivered in February and Resident did not receive package. Order was tracked and package was shown to
be delivered. This was a wrist blood pressure cuff. The grievance follow up showed, Resident re-ordered a
wrist blood pressure cuff back in [DATE]. We cannot reimburse resident, however we could have re-ordered
the cuff.
During an interview on 08/17/23 at 9:50 a.m., Staff Q Social Service Director (SSD) stated Resident #12's
grievance started back in February 2023. Staff Q stated the grievance remained un-resolved in June 2023
when she took over as grievance officer. In June 2023, Staff Q followed up with Resident #12's missing
property but informed Resident #12 there was nothing the facility could do as the facility did not replace
resident's missing property so, Resident #12 chose to re-order the blood pressure again. Staff Q stated the
grievance remained unresolved as there was nothing the facility could do for Resident #12.
During an interview on 08/17/23 at 10:00 a.m., Resident #12 stated she had ordered a blood pressure cuff
in February 2023 but never got it. Resident #12 stated the package tracker said the package was delivered
to the facility. Resident #12 stated when she asked for the package the facility stated the package was
missing. Resident #12 stated in June 2023, [Staff Q] discussed the missing blood pressure cuff with me but
told me I would need to reorder my blood pressure cuff as the facility did not replace missing items.
During an interview on 08/17/23 at 11:00 a.m., the Director of Nursing (DON) stated the facility did replace
missing items for residents. The Staff Q was a fairly new employee and would need to be educated on the
facility's policy and procedures for missing resident items. The DON stated Resident #12 would be
reimbursed, and the SSD would be educated prior to the survey team leaving the facility today.
