Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for
services as needed.
Based on record review, review of facility policy and procedures and staff interview, the facility failed to
complete an accurate level I Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) for 1 (Resident #38)
of 1 sampled resident with a diagnosis of severe mental health requiring treatment.
The failure to obtain a PASRR has a potential to prevent the resident form obtaining appropriate specialized
treatments for residents with severe mental health issues.
The findings Included:
The Policy Preadmission Screening and Resident Review created 03/2019 and last revised on 10/2022
read, The purpose of the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) is to ensure individuals
who are being considered for placement in a Medicaid-certified Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) regardless of
payor source are as follows: Evaluated for an intellectual or related (ID), serious mental Illness (SMI) .
Offered the most integrated setting appropriate for long- term care needs (including determining whether a
Skilled Nursing Facility is appropriate. Able to receive specialized services as indicated .1) The Licensed
Nursing Home will obtain a level one PASRR on all new residents prior to admission to the Licensed
Nursing Home . In the event, the resident is admitted from another nursing facility or acute care facility. The
sending facility will send the Level I PASRR to the Licensed Nursing Home . The Licensed Nursing Home
will complete a Level I PASSR on a current resident if the resident: a. Exhibits behavioral, psychiatric or
mood related symptoms suggesting SMI .
Review of the clinical record for Resident #38 revealed the resident transferred from another skilled nursing
facility on 6/14/24. Admitting diagnoses included Psychotic Disorder with delusions due to known
physiological condition, and Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Type.
The Psychiatric Progress Note dated 6/25/24 read, A moderate level of medical decision-making was
necessary due to the patient's multiple psychiatric conditions specifically major depressive disorder,
schizoaffective disorder d/o, and psychotic disorder. This necessitates regular clinical evaluations and
places them at a moderate risk of deteriorating mental health and adverse health outcomes without
adequate care.
Review Of the Level I PASRR which was transferred with Resident #38 on 6/14/24 was dated 6/7/18 and
documented at that time Resident #38 had no diagnosis of SMI.
The admission Record documented from the transferring facility showed Resident #38 was diagnosed with
Psychotic Disorder with Delusions on 10/25/2018. She was diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder on
10/27/20. She did not have a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder noted in her medical record until
6/25/24 when she was seen for a psychiatric assessment at the current facility.
On 11/9/24 at approximately 10:30 a.m., in an interview the Minimum Data Set (MDS) Coordinator verified
the PASRR from the previous facility dated 6/7/18 was not accurate. It was not updated to reflect Resident
#38's diagnoses of Psychotic Disorder with delusions (10/25/18), Schizoaffective Disorder (10/27/20). The
MDS Coordinator verified Resident #38 was currently being treated for SMI and the facility and did not have
an accurate Level I PASSR.

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to conduct a drug regimen review identified on the
care plan interventions for 1 (Resident #252) of 7 residents reviewed receiving psychotropic medications
and sustained multiple falls at the facility.
The findings included:
Review of the clinical record for Resident #252 revealed an admission date of 10/17/24. Diagnoses
included pleural effusion, generalized muscle weakness, and left rib fracture.
A Daily Progress Note dated 10/16/24 noted prior to admission, Resident #252 fell at home, resulting in left
rib fractures.
The fall risk assessments completed on 10/17/24 and 10/21/24 noted the resident was a high fall risk.
Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for October 2024 and November 2024 revealed
Resident #252 received the following physician ordered medications:
Xanax (Alprazolam) 0.25 mg, one tablet by mouth every morning and at bedtime for anxiety on 10/26/24
and 10/27/24.
Alprazolam 0.25 mg one tablet by mouth every six hours as needed for anxiety for 14 days on 10/19/24,
10/20/24 and 10/21/24.
Zolpidem Tartrate 10 milligrams (mg), one tablet by mouth at bedtime for insomnia from 10/19/24 through
11/5/24. The MAR noted potential side effects included increased falls, dizziness, and weakness.
Lorazepam 2 mg, one tablet by mouth every 8 hours for anxiety from 10/18/24 through 11/6/24.
Oxycodone 5 mg one tablet by mouth every 6 hours as needed for moderate to severe pain. The
Oxycodone was administered on 10/24/24 (once), 10/25/24 (twice), 10/27/24 (once), 10/28/24 (twice),
10/29/24 (twice), 10/31/24 (once), 11/2/24 (once), 11/3/24 (once), and 11/6/24 (once).
An Order Progress Note Warning dated 10/17/24 at 4:26 p.m., noted the following drug interaction warnings
triggered for coadministration of Oxycodone Oral Capsule 5 milligrams (mg), Alprazolam Oral Tablet 0.25
mg, and Lorazepam Oral Tablet 2 mg. The drugs (taken together) may cause additive central nervous
system (CNS) depression. CNS depression side effects range from mild drowsiness to a profound stupor
and can lead to coma or death. CNS depression can be caused by misuse of CNS depressants, such as
sedatives and hypnotics.
Further review of the clinical record revealed Resident #252 sustained seven falls at the facility between
10/19/24 to 11/6/24.
On 10/19/24 at 10:38 p.m., Resident #252 rolled out of bed onto the floor while changing position in bed.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, review of facility policy and procedure, resident and staff interviews, the facility
failed to have justification for continued use of an indwelling urinary catheter (catheter inserted in the
bladder to drain urine) for 1 (Resident #252) of 3 residents sampled for review of urinary catheter and
bladder management.
The findings included:
Review of the facility policy for Bowel and Bladder Incontinence/Catheter/Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
reviewed 10/2022 noted a resident who enters the facility with an indwelling catheter is assessed for
removal of the catheter as soon as possible unless the resident's clinical condition demonstrates that
catheterization is necessary. Residents that admit to the facility with an indwelling catheter will be assessed
by the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) and determine if the catheter has a valid medical justification for the
catheter. The catheter is discontinued as soon as clinically warranted.
Review of the clinical record for Resident #252 revealed an admission date of 10/17/24 from an acute care
hospital. Resident #252 was admitted with an indwelling urinary catheter.
The form 3008, Medical Certification for Medicaid Long-Term Care Services and Patient Transfer Form
dated 10/17/24 noted diagnoses included acute cystitis (inflammation of the bladder) and the primary
reason for transfer was Rehab. The form noted Resident #252 was incontinent of urine. A urinary catheter
was inserted on 10/1/24. The indication for use was urinary retention. The form did not list the cause of the
urinary retention.
The nursing admission assessment dated [DATE] at 2:45 p.m., noted the resident had an indwelling urinary
catheter for retention.
The admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) Assessment with a target date of 10/17/24 noted a diagnosis of
neurogenic bladder (problem with central nervous system or peripheral nerves involved in the control of
urination). The assessment noted the resident's cognition was intact with a Brief Interview for Mental Status
score of 15.
The clinical record, including physician progress notes, physician's orders, nursing progress notes, nursing
progress notes, bladder data collection and interventions did not document urology referral or an
assessment for catheter removal.
On 11/5/24 at 9:20 a.m., Resident #252 was observed in her wheelchair. A urinary catheter drainage bag
was hooked below the seat.
On 11/5/24 3:12 p.m., in an interview Resident #252 said she never needed a urinary catheter before her
recent admission to the hospital. She said no one at the facility asked to take it out. She said it was
removed once at the hospital when she had a urinary tract infection.
