food service supervisor for each facility will verify that the food service employees have taken the required
temperatures by visually monitoring food service employees and reviewing, initialing, and dating a sample
of logs each month. Maintain this log for minimum of three years and until given permission to discard it. If

Arrange for the provision of hospice services or assist the resident in transferring to a facility that will
arrange for the provision of hospice services.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure coordinated care was implemented by
failure to document hospice services rendered to resident's medical record that is available and accessible
to interdisciplinary team (IDT). This deficiency affects two (R22 and R45) of three residents in the sample of
25 reviewed for Hospice care Management.
Findings include:
On 7/9/2024 at 11:00AM, V8 LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) and V9 LPN said that R22 and R45 are both
on hospice care. V9 showed the hospice binder/charts for both residents. Reviewed both hospice binder
charts with V9. Noted no documents found for R22. The folder is empty, only visits log from 6/12/24 to
7/4/24. No IDT progress notes found. Noted R45 hospice documents in binder but missing IDT progress
notes. Noted R45's hospice visit log from 6/10/24 to 7/9/24. V9 said usually when hospice care staff comes
to visit hospice resident, they document in the hospice binder. V9 said that usually Social Services
coordinate with hospice care management.
On 7/9/24 at 11:33AM, V10 Social Service said that she is only responsible for referral to hospice
vendors/services, the Social Service Director is the one responsible for making sure all hospice documents
for coordinated care are in the hospice binder.
On 7/9/24 at 11:48AM, V11 Hospice Social Service (HSS) said that he comes to see both R22 and R45. He
said that the last time she visited both was last month but cannot remember the date. He said he did not log
in and did not document his visit and services provided last month. He said that he cannot find the hospice
binder and he cannot find a nurse from the unit to ask. He added that only the hospice nurses are required
to document, he is social service, and he does not need to document in the hospice progress notes. V9
LPN overheard what V11 HSS told the surveyor, and she denied that there is no nurse available in the unit.
V9 said that the binder is placed in the nursing station desk and there are always staff available in the unit if
he needs assistance.
On 7/9/24 at 11:53AM, V6 Medical Record said that she is responsible to make sure all hospice
coordinated care documents are in place and updated in the hospice binder. She should be monitoring it
weekly and uploading it in resident electronic chart. She said that she has not been doing it for a while.
Reviewed R22 and R45 hospice records with V6. Noted no hospice documents/assessments/IDT progress
notes in R22's folder. R45 does not have IDT progress notes, last progress notes dated 6/12/24 done by
RN.
On 7/11/24 at 10:00AM, Reviewed R22's hospice medical records with V9 LPN and noted that all
documents were faxed by hospice provider dated 7/9/24 after the surveyor found out that there are no
hospice documents in chart.
R22 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnosis listed in part but not limited to History of Malignant neoplasm of
breast, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Vascular dementia with psychotic disturbance, history of
transient ischemic attack and cerebral infarction. Active physician order sheet indicates she was admitted to
hospice care on 4/24/24. Care plan indicates that she is admitted to hospice care due to overall decline in
health. Hospice binder does not have hospice record documents except for IDT visit log from 6/12/24 to
7/4/24.
