Residents Affected - Few
Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
Based on review of policies, clinical records, and facility grievance/complaint logs, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that a written copy of the grievance/complaint decision was provided to the resident and/or resident representative for one of four residents reviewed (Resident 1).
Findings include: The facility's policy regarding grievances/complaints, dated June 7, 2024, revealed that the resident, or the person filing the grievance and/or complaint on behalf of the resident, will be informed (verbally and in writing) of the findings of the investigation and the actions that will be taken to correct any identified problems. The administrator or designee will make such reports orally within five working days of the filing of the grievance or complaint with the facility. A written summary of the investigation will also be provided to the resident, and a copy will be filed in the business office. The facility's grievance/complaint logs, dated July through October 22, 2024, revealed that Resident 1 filed a verbal grievance/complaint with the facility on September 9, 2024. The concern/grievance report stated that a nurse aide rushes her out of the dining room, and that the nurse aide has an attitude, making it hard for her and the other table members to approach the nurse aide. The nurse aide also makes the dining room uncomfortable when she is there, and that the nurse aide also slammed a cup down. A summary of the investigation revealed that the nurse aide stated there may be a delay on requested items at times. They educated the nurse aide and will evaluate the need for extra assistance in the dining room at meal times. The facility indicated that the grievance/complaint investigation was completed on September 13, 2024. However, as of October 22, 2024, there was no documented evidence that Resident 1 received a written grievance/complaint report. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 22, 2024, at 4:00 p.m. confirmed that there was no documented evidence until October 22, 2024, that Resident 1 was informed of the findings of the investigation. 28 Pa. Code 201.29(i) Resident Rights.
