Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure accuracy of assessments when the behavior section
did not accurately reflect the status of Residents #88, #159 and #161. This affected three residents (#88,
#159 and #161) of four residents reviewed for behaviors.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Record review revealed Resident #88 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
dementia with behavioral disturbance, depression, and insomnia.
Review of the behavior documentation report for April 2023 revealed Resident #88 demonstrated
pacing/wandering on 04/15/23 and 04/21/23 and screaming on 04/17/23 and 04/19/23.
Review of the behavior tracking log and progress notes for April 2023 revealed Resident #88 was resistive
to care on 04/17/23, 04/18/23, 40/20/23 and 04/21/23.
Review of the 5-day admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 04/21/23, revealed
Resident #88 was assessed in section E0200(C) for other behavioral symptoms not directed towards others
(e.g., verbal/vocal symptoms like screaming or disruptive sounds) as behavior not exhibited and the
response was locked on 04/17/23 prior to the assessment reference date (ARD) of 04/21/23. Section
E0800 for rejection of care was assessed as behavior not exhibited and the response was locked on
04/17/23 prior to the ARD of 04/21/23. Section E0900 for wandering was assessed as behavior not
exhibited and the response was locked on 04/17/23 prior to the ARD of 04/21/23.

(LSW) #509 verified Resident #88's 5-day admission MDS assessment dated [DATE] did not capture all the
behaviors documented during the look back period from the ARD because it was completed prior to the
ARD. LSW #509 indicated it was acceptable to complete the assessment anytime within the assessment
period.
2. Record review revealed Resident #159 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
psychosis not due to substance or known physiological condition, dementia with behavioral disturbance,
post-traumatic stress disorder, major depressive disorder, anxiety, and insomnia.
