**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record review and interview, the facility failed to accurately code the Minimum Data Set
(MDS) assessment for one (Resident #9) out of 6 residents reviewed for resident assessments. As
evidenced by inaccurate coding of MDS for Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs related to
Oxygen therapy for Resident #9. There were 235 residents residing in the facility at the time of this survey.
The findings include. During several observations on 12/02/25, 12/03/25, 12/04/25 and 12/05/25
Resident#9 was in bed with oxygen running via nasal canula.Review of the medical records for Resident #9

continuous oxygen. Interventions include- Change Oxygen Tubing and Humidifier every night shift on
Sunday. Administer oxygen as ordered.Interview on 12/05/2025 at 7:26 AM Minimum Date Set Coordinator
(Staff A) stated: For assessments of the residents, we go to see the residents physically, read the residents'
doctor orders, nurses' notes and medical documents of the residents to complete the assessment. The
resident was not coded for oxygen therapy on the quarterly assessment dated [DATE]. The resident has an
order in the system for continuous oxygen; a mistake was made in not coding the oxygen therapy in section
O for Special treatments on the most recent quarterly assessment.Review of the facility policy and
procedure titled MDS Assessment completion and Accuracy dated 09/2022 states: It is the policy of the
facility to adhere to the following procedures related to the proper documentation and utilization of a
resident's Minimum Data Set (MDS) to ensure a comprehensive and accurate assessment of residents will
be completed in the format and in accordance with time frames stipulated by the Department of Health and
Human Services Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. This assessment system will provide a
comprehensive, accurate, standardized, reproducible assessment of each resident's functional capacities
and assist staff to identify health problems for care plan development.

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to complete a Preadmission Screening and
Resident Review (PASARR) for one (Resident # 16) out of two sampled residents, as evidenced by not
including Serious Mental Illness (SMI) diagnosis on the resident's PASARR form. There were 235 residents
residing in the facility at the time of the survey. The findings include.Record review of a policy titled
Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) revealed it is the policy of the facility to ensure
that all residents receive a PASARR in accordance with State and Federal requirements and that the
PASARR is updated whenever mental health diagnoses or conditions change. Observations on 12/02/25 at
10:43 AM Resident #16 was awake in low bed, on 12/03/25 at 11:58 AM and on 12/04/25 at 12:26 PM
Resident #16 was observed in room being fed by staff no concerns noted.Resident #16 was initially
admitted on [DATE] and re-entered the facility on 12/11/24 with medical diagnoses that included
Parkinson's Disease without Dyskinesia, Mood Disorder due to a Known Physiological Condition
(Unspecified), Bipolar Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder, Single
Episode, Unspecified.Record review of a Significant Change - No PPS MDS dated [DATE] revealed Section
A had no mention of the PASARR. Section C documented a BIMS score of 6, indicating moderate to severe
cognitive impairment. Section I showed the resident had diagnoses of Anxiety, Depression, and bipolar
disorder. Section N showed the resident did not receive any antipsychotic medications but did receive
antidepressant and anti-anxiety medications. Record review of the care plan, with a review start date of
12/10/25 and target completion date of 03/08/26 included a focus on the use of anti-anxiety medication for
an anxiety disorder, use of antidepressant medication for depression and insomnia, with goals for the
resident to remain free from adverse reactions related to therapy. Interventions included monitoring and
documenting reactions such as drowsiness, confusion, impaired judgment .hostility or hallucinations
.prevention of over-sedation . or suicidal thoughts and obtaining psychological services when
needed.Record review of a physician's orders dated 08/21/25 showed an active order for Clonazepam 1
milligram (mg) tablet, to be given twice daily for anxiety. Record review revealed the admission PASARR
provided by the hospital and the PASARR completed by the facility did not document the resident's mental
health diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder after these diagnoses became effective and
began receiving treatment for these mental health conditions.During an interview on 12/02/25 at 6:53 PM
the Social Services Director stated: Upon review of the admission PASARR completed at the facility and the
PASARR provided by the hospital at the time of admission, findings were compared and verified. Neither
PASARR contained the diagnoses listed in the medical record. The diagnoses of depression and anxiety
were identified after admission and therefore were not reflected on the admission PASARR. The resident
was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Social Services acknowledges that the PASARR should have
been updated when these diagnoses became effective.

Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop
corrective plans of action.
Based on observation, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement an
effective Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) program. As evidenced by repeat
citations related to F0584 - Housekeeping and Maintenance, F0645 - Pre-admission Screening and
Resident Review (PASARR, F0695 - Respiratory Care and F0867- QAPI/Quality Assessment and
Assurance (QAA) Improvement Activities). There were 235 residents residing in the facility at the time of the
survey. The findings include. Review of the facility's survey history revealed during the recertification survey
with an exit date of 06/26/2024, the facility was cited: F0584: Safe/Clean/Comfortable/Homelike
Environment; F0645-PASARR (Preadmission Screening and Resident Review), for incomplete PASARR
documentation, and F0695-Respiratory/Tracheostomy Care and Suctioning for failure to ensure prescribed
respiratory care and F0867- QAPI/Quality Assessment and Assurance (QAA) Improvement
Activities).During the current survey with an exit date of 12/05/2025, the surveyors identified repeated
deficient practices for: F0584: Safe/Clean/Comfortable/Homelike Environment; F0645- PASARR
(Preadmission Screening and Resident Review), and F0695: Respiratory/Tracheostomy Care and
Suctioning. Interview with the Administrator on 12/05/2025 at 7:18 PM, revealed the QAA committee meets
on the first Friday of each month and the last meeting was held on November 7, 2025 the committee
includes the Medical Director, Administrator, Director of Nursing, Assistant Director of Nursing, Admissions,
Social Services, MDS, Activities, Dietary, Wound Care, Restorative Nurse, Infection Preventionist, Therapy,
Central Supply, Housekeeping, Maintenance, Committee Physician, and Pharmacy. the QAA committee is
meant to improve the quality of care and services by reviewing practices, identifying problems or
opportunities for improvement, and putting corrective actions in place. It's a team effort, and everyone's
input is used to find solutions and make improvements. When asked how the committee knows when an
issue comes up, staff said concerns are raised during daily morning meetings, through audits, or staff
reporting processes and issues are reviewed by department heads during rounds, prioritized based on risk
and resident impact, and addressed immediately if they are high risk. The QAA committee revisits
interventions to make sure they are working, provides re-education if needed, and incorporates staff
feedback to ensure corrective actions stay effective with setting a timeframe, usually about three months,
and then review progress. Monitoring is ongoing through rounds, audits, teachable moments, monthly town
halls, and safety committee activities. The committee tracks improvement using audits, observations, and
comparing reports to previous data to make sure interventions are working. Review of the policy titled
Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) and dated 11/28/2012 revealed that nursing
home QAPI is the coordinated application of two mutually reinforcing aspects of a quality management
system: Quality Assurance (QA) and Performance Improvement (PI). QAPI takes a systematic,
interdisciplinary, comprehensive, and data-driven approach to maintaining and improving safety and quality
in nursing homes while involving residents and families, and all nursing home caregivers in practical and
creative problem solving. Quality Assurance (QA): QA is the specification of standards for quality of care,
service and outcomes, and systems throughout the facility for assuring that care is maintained at
acceptable levels in relation to those standards
