Assess the resident completely in a timely manner when first admitted, and then periodically, at least every 12 months. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, clinical record review and interview with staff, it was determined that the facility did not ensure that a comprehensive assessment was completed accurately related to language and communication for one of 33 records reviewed (R417).
Findings include: Review of clinical documentation revealed that Resident R417 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of traumatic subdural hemorrhage (brain bleed caused by injury, which can damage the brain and result in lack of normal functioning), cerebral infarction (death of an area of brain tissue), and dementia (a degenerative neurological condition which results in impaired memory and judgement). Progress notes for the resident revealed that she was on comfort care, a protocol intended to keep a resident comfortable during end of life, but which is not hospice care. Continued review of the documentation revealed that a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) assessment was completed for the resident on November 14, 2024. The resident scored a ten out of a possible 15, which indicated moderate impairment of cognitive function. This assessment also included a section titled Health literacy/Social isolation/Transportation/ Ethnicity/Race, in which it was stated that the resident's preferred language was Vietnamese. Review of Resident R417's admission Assessment MDS, dated [DATE], revealed that in section V, Care Area Assessment, that the area Communication was triggered for review and care planning. Review of the accompanying Care Area Assessment worksheet for Communication revealed that under the triggered area Expressive communication, Speaks different language was not selected.

Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, clinical record review and interview with staff and residents and review of facility policy, it was determined that the facility did not develop a person-centered baseline care plan within 48 hours of a resident's admission related to language and communication for two residents, for a surgically wired jaw for one resident, and mental healthcare needs for one resident of 33 residents reviewed (Resident R158, R315, R417, R420).
Findings include: Review of facility policy, Care Planning Process and Care Conference, revised July 3, 2023, revealed: Staff shall interact with the residents in a way that accomodates the physical or sensory limitations of the residents, promotes communication and maintains dignity. The facility's language access program will ensure that individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) shall have meaningful access to information and services provided by the facility. When encountering LEP individuals, staff members will conduct the initial language assessment and notify the staff person in charge of the language access program. The coordinator of the facility's language access program. The coordinator of the the facility's language access program is the Director of Social Services, or his/her designee as determined by the NHA. It is understood that providing meaningful access to services provided by the facility requires also that the LEP resident's needs and questions are accurately communicated to the staff. Oral Interpretation Services therefore include interpretation from The LEP resident's primary language back to English. Care plans should reflect the LEP services utilized and specific activity programs that are provided to the resident based on their preferences. Activity programs are designed to meet the interests of and support the physical, mental and psycho-social well beingof each resident as well as, encouraging both independence and community iinteraction. An interdisciplinary baseline care plan will be initiated upon admission by the admitting nurse and completed within 48 hours. A copy of the baseline care plan will be reviewed with and provided to the resident/patient and/or resident representative, upon admission (within 48 hours). Facility will maintain evidence that the baseline care plan was provided (ex: nursing enters an admission progress note indicating resident admitted , assessments completed, introduced to surroundings and a copy of the baseline care plan was reviewed with resident and left at the bedside. RP called to notify of resident's arrival and baseline care plan was reviewed with RP). Include such initial needs/problems such as ADL's, falls, skin tears, risk for skin breakdown, nutritional status, behaviors, pacemaker, anticoagulants, psychotropic medication use, etc. Include a care plan related to the resident's primary diagnosis.
