LTC Online Portal for 1 of 3 residents reviewed for PASRR assessments (Resident #1). The facility did not
ensure the required NFSS form for Resident #1 to receive an OT Assessment and OT Services was
submitted within 20 business days (6/21/2024) of the IDT meeting held for Resident #1 on 5/22/24 to the
PASRR department via the LTC Online Portal. This failure could place residents who are PASRR positive at
risk of not receiving the necessary services that would enhance their quality of life.Findings included:
Record review of the face sheet dated 12/5/2025 indicated Resident #1 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses including unspecified intellectual disabilities (clearly shows intellectual disability but
the severity is unknown), anxiety disorder, unspecified (the person experiences anxiety, but the cause and
type are unknown), major depressive disorder, recurrent, unspecified (the person experiences depression,
but the cause and type are unknown. Record review of the MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated that
Resident #1 had medically complex conditions, anxiety disorder, depression, and received no special
treatments, procedures or programs. The document indicated that a BIMS should not be conducted. Record
review of the Care Plan for Resident #1 dated 11/17/2025 which does not include OT services. Record
review of the PASRR Comprehensive Service Plan dated 11/19/2024 which indicated a new service
needed for Resident #1 for a specialized occupational therapy assessment and specialized occupational
therapy. Record review of the Habilitation Service Plan last updated 11/11/2025 which indicated that
Resident #1 was receiving IDD Habilitative specialized services including habilitation coordination and
independent living skills. The document indicated that Resident #1 received the following NF Specialized
Services: occupational therapy and physical therapy. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:30 a.m. The
PASRR Unit Program Specialist stated that the facility failed to submit and complete an accurate request for
NFSS in the LTC Online portal within 20 business days after the date of the interdisciplinary team meeting
and that due to that the resident had not received a Medicaid service. The facility was notified and
instructed to submit an NFSS request on 12/31/2024 regarding the services directed for PASRR on
5/22/2024. A follow-up call was made to the facility on 1/14/2025 and as a result of this, the service was
denied. During an interview on 12/5/25 at 2:30 p.m. the MDS Coordinator indicated that she did not have an
NFSS form for Resident #1 for OT Services. She stated that she was new to the MDS position and that
before she took over, the social worker was handling PASRR. She stated that she had some training on
PASRR but was not aware of the timelines related to submitting the NFSS form. She stated that the risk of
not sending the NFSS form was that the PASRR positive resident did not get the identified services that
they needed. During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 2:48 p.m. the Social Worker indicated that she started
working for the facility in April of 2025 and anything that happened before that she was not aware of. She

the facility from the hospital she would receive their PASRR before their arrival and she would enter it into
the system and that was all that she did. She stated that she had never completed or had to submit an
NFSS form and believed the MDS Coordinator was responsible for that. She stated that the importance of
entering all of the documentation timely was that it was crucial for ensuring that all residents receive all of
the services that were available to them so that they could have the highest quality of care possible. During
an interview on 12/5/2025 at 3:44 p.m. the DON stated that PASRR responsibilities have been split between
the Social Worker and the MDS Coordinator. She stated that had a result of the investigation they would be
moving all of the PASRR responsibilities to the MDS Coordinator so that there was no confusion on roles
and responsibilities. Record review of the facility's PASRR Policy dated 7/29/2025 which indicated that
preadmission for PASRR happens when a person is coming from the community. This includes anywhere
other than a medical acute care hospital or another nursing facility. The person, coming from the community
with a PASRR Level 1 that indicates a suspicion of IDD.must also have a completed PASRR Evaluation
submitted before they can be admitted to a nursing facility. This process must be followed to ensure people
coming from a community setting can receive education about other placement alternatives before nursing
facility admission .The Level I screening process determines if the individual may have a mental illness or
intellectual disability. It is generally completed by the nursing facility before admission.If the Level I
screening indicates potential mental illness or intellectual disability, a Level II evaluation is conducted. This
comprehensive assessment is performed by a qualified mental health professional and evaluates the
individual's needs and whether nursing home placement is appropriate. In regard to documentation facilities
must maintain thorough documentation of the PASRR assessments, including the Level I and Level II
evaluations, as well as recommendations made. Based on the findings of the Level II evaluation, a care
plan is developed that may include specialized services or living arrangements tailored to the individual's
needs. Residents who are admitted under PASRR guidelines may undergo periodic reviews to ensure that
their needs are being met and that they continue to require nursing home care. Nursing homes must
comply with all federal and state regulations regarding PASRR. Failure to do so can result in penalties or
loss of funding. The facility follows HHS PASRR For Nursing Facility guidelines.
