The findings included: A review of the International Dysphagia Standardization Initiate (IDDSI) Descriptions provided by the facility's Speech Therapy Pathologist revealed the following: Pureed diet level 4: falls off the spoon when tilted. It continues to hold its shape in a plate. It cannot be drunk from a cup or sucked from a straw. It can be molded and does not require chewing. It has no lumps or stickiness. A chart review showed that Resident #34 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Alzheimer's Disease, Bipolar Disorder, and Depression. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score indicating Resident #34 is rarely understood.

It should not have any lumps or pieces. According to Staff B, most of the pureed foods are bought by an outside company, and only certain food items are prepared in-house. In an interview conducted on 10/14/24 at 9:10 AM, the Food Service Director stated that Pureed bread is not bought from an outside company and is made in-house. She further said that 10 residents are on a pureed diet. When photographic evidence of the pureed diet was shown, she acknowledged that it was not within the guidelines of a pureed diet consistency.
