**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3. Review of
Resident #12's medical record revealed an admission date of 11/04/19 with diagnoses including
Parkinson's disease, generalized anxiety disorder (05/30/18), schizophrenia (12/20/16), major depressive
disorder (12/20/16), and developmental disorder of scholastic skills (12/20/16).
Review of a PASARR identification screen revealed the screening did not capture the diagnosis of
schizophrenia or developmental disorder (condition that resulted in impairment of general intellectual
functioning or adaptive behavior). The screening form indicated Resident #12's physician ordered skilled
nursing services. The review results dated 11/04/19 indicated there were no indications of serious mental
illness nor a developmental disorder and no referrals were made to the Department of Developmental
Disorders for an evaluation to determine if Resident #12 would benefit from specialized services.
An annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 11/11/21 indicated Resident #12 was not
considered by the State Level II PASARR process to have serious mental illness and/or intellectual
disability or related condition. Resident #12 had clear speech, was able to understand others and make
herself understood. Resident #12 was assessed as cognitively intact. Resident #12 transferred, ambulated,
dressed, ate, used the toilet, and performed personal hygiene with supervision.
Review of the facility policy titled, The Healthcare Electronic Notification System Pre-admission Screening
and Resident Review (PASARR) Level II revealed based on information provided in the PASARR, a
determination was made as to whether the individual could be admitted to the nursing facility or whether
further review was required. The system automatically forwarded any documents with indications of
intellectual developmental disability to the Ohio Departments of Mental Health (ASCEND) and Addiction
Services (OMHAS)and/or the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities ([NAME]) for additional Level
II review. Nursing facilities were required to complete the PASARR accurately and submit it to the OMHAS
and/or the [NAME] if indications of serious mental illness and/or developmental disabilities were present.
OMHAS and [NAME] would take the appropriate action to perform the Level II review and would provide the
submitter with documentation of the Level II determination.
On 05/17/22 at 10:58 A.M. interview with SS #502 verified the resident's screening was inaccurate. SS
#502 verified if the screening was accurate it would have resulted in a Level II evaluation. There was no
system in place to review PASARR for accuracy or changes.
Based on record review, facility policy and procedure review and interview the facility failed to ensure
Preadmission Screening and Resident Reviews (PASARR's) were completed accurately on admission
and/or failed to ensure a new PASARR was completed following a change in diagnoses. This affected

Findings include:
Residents Affected - Few
1. Record review revealed Resident #56 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
anxiety and dementia with behavioral disturbance.
Review of Resident #56's PASARR, dated 08/01/13 only included the determination that indicated the
resident had no serious mental illness or a developmental disability.
On 10/25/13 the resident was diagnosed with major depression disorder single episode and on 01/29/16
the diagnosis was changed to recurrent major depression disorder. On 07/08/18 psychosis not due to a
substance or known psychological condition was added. The resident had an acute hospital stay and was
readmitted to the facility on [DATE].
Review of Resident #56's Minimum Date Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 10/19/21 revealed the resident
did not have conditions related to serious mental illness. The resident was admitted on [DATE] and was
re-admitted on [DATE] after an acute hospital stay. The resident's cognition was intact and the assessment
revealed the resident was totally dependent on staff for transfers, locomotion, toilet use, bathing and
personal hygiene.
On 05/17/22 at 11:00 A.M. interview with Social Service (SS) #502 revealed she was not sure who was
responsible for completing the PASARR section of the MDS to ensure the PASARR was accurate and
correct. The SS reported Resident #56's PASARR had not been updated since her admission in 2013 and
should have been updated with each new mental illness diagnoses added after original admission. SS #502
confirmed there was no evidence a new PASARR was completed on 10/25/13 when major depression
disorder single episode was added and changed to recurrent major depression disorder on 01/29/16 or on
07/08/18 when psychosis not due to a substance or known psychological condition was added to ensure
the resident did not require Level II review for services.
Review of the facility policy and procedure titled PASARR, dated 04/2017 revealed to ensure that
individuals with serious mental illness or an intellectual developmental disability who were seeking care in
the nursing facility would receive appropriate care in the facility to address these conditions.
A resident review was required for any nursing facility resident with a serious mental illness or intellectual
developmental disability who was admitted to the facility under hospital exemption but required more than
30 days of services and had experienced a significant change of condition.
2. Review of Resident #45's medical record revealed an initial admission date of 07/27/21 and a
readmission date of 03/29/22 (the resident had left the faciity on [DATE] for one day). Resident #45 had
diagnoses (dated 05/07/21) including anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, essential hypertension,
weakness and unspecified heart failure. On 03/18/22 a new diagnosis of psychotic disorder with
hallucinations and Parkinson's disease was added.
Resident #45's PASARR, dated 07/27/21 revealed the question of does the individual have a diagnosis(es)
of any of the mental disorders listed below with the boxes beside mood disorder and panic or other severe
anxiety disorder marked on the form. A PASARR, dated 03/29/22 revealed the questions of does the
individual have a diagnosis(es) of any of the mental disorders listed below with the box

Resident #45's care plan, dated 03/29/22 revealed the resident was at risk for drug related complications
related to psychotropic medication use of antidepressant and anti-anxiety medications.
Residents Affected - Few
Resident #45's physician's orders revealed an order, dated 03/29/22 for the resident was to have
psychiatric evaluations as indicated. The resident also had medication orders, dated 03/29/22 for Fluoxetine
HCL 50 mg (milligram) by mouth one time a day for depression and anxiety, Nuplazid 34 mg by mouth one
time a day for Parkinson's disease psychosis. On 05/15/22 an order was obtained for Ativan 0.5 mg by
mouth every eight hours as needed for anxiety and agitation.
Review of Resident #45's Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 04/05/22 revealed the resident
had moderate cognitive impairment and was not currently considered by the State Level II Preadmission
Screening/Resident Review Identification Screen (PASARR) to have serious mental and/or intellectual
disability or related condition. The MDS revealed the resident was receiving an anti-depressant medication.
On 05/16/22 at 2:19 P.M. interview with Resident #45 revealed he did not receive any type of psychiatric
services.
On 05/17/22 at 8:53 A.M. interview with Admissions #536 revealed she had completed the 03/29/22
PASARR which did not reflect the resident having any mental health diagnoses or mental health
medications marked. She reported she does not usually do the PASARR's. Admissions #536 revealed the
liaison who usually does them wasn't in the facility so she did it. She reported since Resident #45 had only
left for one day she did it to get it in the system. She verified she didn't know how to complete a PASARR
and verified it was not accurate.
On 05/17/22 at 10:59 A.M. interview with SS #502 revealed on 03/18/22 a new diagnosis of psychotic
disorder with hallucinations was noted and a new PASARR should have been completed. SS #502 revealed
she was not aware of the diagnosis change on 03/18/22 but indicated she does have access to the
electronic health record (EHR) were diagnoses were listed.

Ensure necessary information is communicated to the resident, and receiving health care provider at the
time of a planned discharge.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
closed record review, facility policy and procedure review and interview the facility failed to ensure the
discharge summary completed for Resident #85 included a recapitulation of the resident's stay. This
affected one resident (#85) of one resident reviewed for discharge.
Findings include:
Closed record review revealed Resident #85 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and discharged to
another skilled nursing facility on 03/11/22. The resident's diagnoses included severe protein malnutrition,
osteomyelitis of vertebra, symbolic dysfunctions, dysphagia, weakness and need for assistance with
personal care, pressure ulcer of sacral region, history of pulmonary embolism, encephalopathy,
hyperlipidemia, gastrostomy, discitis and type II diabetes.
A discharge note, dated 03/11/22 revealed follow up instruction education was provided to the transferring
facility. The resident was made aware of transfer and signed discharge paper and verbalized understanding.
Review of Resident #85's electronic medical record (EMR) revealed a recapitulation of resident's stay was
not completed nor was a summary of the resident's status. A recapitulation of the resident's stay described
the resident's course of treatment while residing in the facility. The recapitulation was to include but was not
limited to: diagnoses, course of illness, treatment, and/or therapy, and pertinent lab, radiology, and
consultation results, including any pending lab results. Items required to be in the final summary of the
resident's status included: identification and demographic information, customary routine, cognitive
patterns, communication, vision, mood and behavior patterns, psychosocial well-being, physical functioning
and structural problems, continence disease diagnoses and health conditions, dental and nutritional status,
skin condition, activity pursuit, medications, special treatments and procedures, discharge planning (as
evidenced by most recent discharge care plan), documentation of summary information regarding the
additional assessment performed on the care areas triggered by the completion of the MDS and
documentation of participation in assessment. This refers to documentation of who participated in the
assessment process. The assessment process must include direct observation and communication with the
resident, as well as communication with licensed and non-licensed direct care/direct access staff members
on all shifts.
Review of Resident #85's paper medical record revealed Resident #85 signed a discharge instruction of
care sheet that included the name and address to the facility the resident was being transferred to, current
treatment orders to the sacrum, right and left heel and feeding tube site. There was a notation to See
attached medication review, however there was no evidence of an attachment or the resident's current
physical status. There was no evidence of the resident's complete status at the time of discharge.
On 05/18/22 at 10:55 A.M. interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #701 revealed a recapitulation of stay was
not completed for Resident #85. The facility had only completed the paper discharge instruction for care
form and the facility did not keep a copy of the mediation review to ensure all medication were reconciled
from admission.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, facility policy and procedure review and interview the facility failed to ensure
psychotropic medications were only administered when there were indications for use, failed to ensure
non-pharmacological interventions were attempted prior to the administration of psychotropic medication
ordered on an as necessary basis and/or failed to ensure orders for psychotropic medications were
accurate and complete providing clear directions for use. This affected two residents (#8 and #48) of five
residents reviewed for unnecessary medication use.
Findings include:
1. Review of Resident #8's medical record revealed diagnoses including anxiety disorder and dementia with
behavioral disturbance.
Resident #8 had a physician's order for Ativan (anti-anxiety medication) 0.5 milligrams (mg) every four
hours as necessary. Resident #8 also had an order for narcotic pain medication (Oxycodone HCL) 5 mg
every four hours as needed for moderate to severe pain. Orders revealed staff were to monitor behaviors
including screaming/yelling/calling out, picking at her skin, verbal and physical aggression, resisting care,
non-compliance with treatment/medication regimen, anxiety and tearfulness.
Review of the March 2022 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed no record of anxiety on the
behavior tracking. Eleven doses of Ativan were administered without documentation of the rationale or
attempts to provide non-pharmacological interventions prior to administration. Six of the 11 Ativan doses
were administered concurrently or within two minutes of the administration with the Oxycodone HCL.
Review of the April 2022 MAR revealed no documented behaviors for the resident. The MAR indicated 21
doses of Ativan were administered without documentation of the rationale or attempts to provide
non-pharmacological interventions prior to administration. Seventeen of the 21 doses of Ativan were
administered with Oxycodone. Of the 17 doses, 16 of them were administered between 7:30 P.M. and 9:00
P.M. The order for Ativan was revised for use for anxiety or insomnia on 04/28/22.
Review of the May 2022 MAR revealed no behaviors documented for the resident between 05/01/22 and
05/19/22. Fifteen doses of Ativan were administered without documentation of anxiety/insomnia or
non-pharmacological interventions attempted prior to the Ativan administration.
On 05/19/22 at 9:35 A.M. the concerns related to the use of Ativan ordered on an as necessary basis
without documentation of indications for use or attempts at non-pharmacological interventions were
addressed with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON reported she definitely knew Resident #8 had
periods of anxiety but could not state why the episodes were not documented in the behavior tracking or
why attempts of non-pharmacological interventions were not documented or provided.
On 05/19/22 at 10:18 A.M. Psych Nurse Practitioner (NP) #702 was interviewed regarding the frequency of
the Ativan ordered on an as necessary basis without documentation of the need/indication for its use or
without evidence of non-pharmacological interventions being attempted. NP #702 stated with each

attempt to address behaviors. NP #702 stated staff had not reported increased anxiety at night for the
resident. NP #702 stated without more comprehensive documentation, it was difficult to determine if there
were underlying factors causing increased anxiety at night which resulted in use of Ativan.
Review of the facility policy titled, Use of Psychotropic Medication, implemented 04/01/22 revealed the
indications for initiating, withdrawing, or withholding medications, as well as the use of non-pharmacological
approaches would be determined by assessing the resident's underlying condition, current signs,
symptoms, expressions and preferences and goals for treatment and identification of underlying causes
(when possible). Residents who received psychotropic drugs should also receive non-pharmacological
interventions to facilitate reduction or discontinuation of the psychotropic drugs. Psychotropic medication
ordered on an as necessary basis should be used only when the medication was necessary to treat a
diagnosed specific condition that was documented in the clinical record and for a limited duration. Use of
psychotropic medications for enduring conditions required the symptoms and therapeutic goals be clearly
and specifically identified and documented. An evaluation should be documented to determine the
resident's expressions or indications of distress were not due to a medical condition or problems that could
be expected to improve or resolve as the underlying condition was treated or the offending medications
were discontinued, not due to environmental stressors alone that could be addressed to improve the
symptoms or maintain safety, not due to psychological stressors, anxiety or fear stemming from
misunderstanding related to his or her cognitive impairment that could be expected to improve or resolve as
the situation was addressed and persistent and negatively affect his or her quality of life.
2. Record review revealed Resident #48 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
anxiety disorder, mental disorder due to known physiological condition, intracranial injury, convulsion,
hydrocephalus, major depressive disorder, conduct disorder, adult personality and behavior disorder and
dementia with behavioral disturbance.
Review of a controlled substance sheet, dated 03/24/22 revealed the Ativan/Benadryl (AB) Gel 0.5-12.5
mg/ml was originally ordered on 03/23/22. The order was to apply one ml topically twice daily and to
discard on 04/22/22 or sooner. The pharmacy sent 30 one ml syringes.
Review of Resident #48's current orders and medication administration records, dated 05/2022 revealed
the resident was ordered Ativan/Benadryl (AB) gel 0.5 milligrams (mg)/12.5 mg one application topically
twice daily as needed for anxiety. There was no indication where to apply the topically medication, the
amount of the application, or a stop date.
Further review revealed on 05/12/22 16 syringes were destroyed.
Review of pharmacy communication note, dated 05/18/22 revealed the AB gel should be applied topically
to the inner wrist.
Review of a pharmacy non-sterile compounding worksheet, dated 03/22/22 and faxed to the facility on
[DATE] revealed Resident #48 was ordered AB Gel 0.5-12.5 mg/ml to be applied topically twice daily. There
was no indication were to apply the topically gel. The medication expired within 30 days after compounding.
On 05/18/22 at 11:28 A.M. and 2:40 P.M. interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #700 revealed the order for
the AB gel should have been discontinued on 05/12/22 when the medication was destroyed,

diagnosed specific conditions that were documented in the clinical record and for a limited duration (i.e. 14
days). If the attending physician or prescribing physician believed it was appropriate for the as needed order
to be extended beyond the 14 days, he or she shall document their rational in the resident's medical record
and indicate the duration for the as needed order.

observation, record review, facility policy and procedure review and interview the facility failed to ensure
Resident #2 was provided timely dental services to meet her needs. This affected one resident (#2) of three
residents reviewed for dental care.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of Resident #2's medical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including cerebral palsy, type two diabetes, essential hypertension, hyperlipidemia and adult
failure to thrive.
Review of Resident #2's physician's orders revealed an order, dated 08/20/18 for dental consult as needed.
The resident had an order, dated 08/23/18 for the use of a mechanical (Hoyer) lift for transfers.
Review of Resident #2's care plans revealed the following:
A plan of care (initiated 08/24/18) revealed a focus on alteration in mobility related to her using a
