Conduct and document a facility-wide assessment to determine what resources are necessary to care for
residents competently during both day-to-day operations (including nights and weekends) and
emergencies.
Based on review of the facility assessment and staff interview, the facility failed to conduct and implement
an annual facility assessment in a timely manner. This has the potential to affect all 57 residents residing in
the facility.
Findings include:
Review of the facility's undated assessment revealed the facility's antibiotic stewardship program was noted
as 'in progress' on the assessment tool. Further review of the assessment revealed the facility's 'Infection
Preventionist' will be certified in 2018.
Interview on 05/22/19 at 1:40 P.M. with the Administrator and the Director of Nursing (DON) verified the
facility assessment had been completed by the prior Administrator and DON of the facility. The current DON
verified she was not certified as the Infection Preventionist and stated the facility had completed an
antibiotic stewardship program that was in place at the time of the survey. Per the Administrator and the
DON, the previous administration had not completed an updated annual facility assessment since the last
survey of 04/19/18 and the Administrator had not updated the facility assessment to date.
