F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. 3. Review of Resident 91's admission Record indicated, Resident 91 was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including aphasia (a language disorder wherein the person is unable to communicate effectively to others) following cerebral infarction (also called stroke), hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body/a severe or complete loss of strength in the arm, leg, and sometimes face on one side of the body) and hemiparesis (a relatively mild loss of strength in the arm, leg, and sometimes face on one side of the body) following unspecified cerebrovascular disease (CVA - also referred to as stroke) affecting right dominant side (more skillful side), and benign prostatic hyperplasia (an enlarged prostate [a gland just below the bladder]) with lower urinary tract symptoms (examples include leaking urine, having sudden and frequent urges to pee, having a weak stream or feeling like unable to empty the bladder). Review of Resident 91's minimum data set (MDS - an assessment tool) Admission/5-day assessment, dated 3/2/2024, indicated, Resident 91's brief interview for mental status (BIMS - an assessment to test a person's cognition level) was 7 [a BIMS score of 0 to 7 indicates severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 moderate impairment, 13-15 patient is cognitively intact] which meant Resident 91 had severe cognitive impairment. During an observation on 3/24/2024 at 3:43 p.m., inside Resident 91's room, Resident 91 was sitting up on wheelchair with urine bag hanging under the wheelchair without a cover.

F 0582 Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered. 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 provide two of three sampled residents (Resident 13 and 83) with the Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice (SNFABN, a financial liability notice). This failure could lead to resident unknowingly assume financial liability for receiving services that were not covered by Medicare. Residents Affected - Few Findings: During a review of Resident 13's face sheet (a document that contains a summary of a resident's personal and demographic information) and Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage ((NOMNC, a notice that indicates when a resident's stay at a SNF is no longer paid by Medicare), it indicated Resident 13 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and his stay was paid by Medicare (federal health insurance for anyone age [AGE] and older, and some people under 65 with certain disabilities) until 12/19/23 and currently resided at the facility. During a review of Resident 83's face sheet and NOMNC, it indicated Resident 83 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and her Medicare benefits was from 12/2/23 until 1/12/24 and currently resided at the facility. During an interview on 3/27/24 at 10:31 a.m. with the Business Office Manager (BOM), the BOM confirmed Resident 13 and 83's stay were partially covered by Medicare, after their Medicare benefits ended, they stayed at the facility. She stated she never issued a SNFABN before and was not aware of anything about SNFABN until 3/11/24 when she was provided a training webinar regarding SNFABN. She further stated she would start to issue SNFABN based on the regulation moving forward. During an interview on 3/29/24 at 9:30 a.m. with the Administrator (ADM), the ADM stated the two residents were supposed to receive SNFABN when their Medicare benefits ended.

F 0641 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 accurately complete the Minimum Data Set (MDS, a clinical assessment tool) for one of 24 sampled residents (Resident 63). Failure to accurately assess the resident had the potential to compromise the facility's ability to provide resident-centered care plan interventions. Residents Affected - Few Findings: During a review of Resident 63's face sheet (a document that contains a summary of a resident's personal and demographic information), it indicated Resident 63 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis of bipolar disorder (a serious mental illness that causes unusual shifts in mood). During a review of Resident 63's level I Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR, a federal requirement to help ensure individuals with mental disorders and intellectual disabilities are not inappropriately placed in nursing homes for long-term care) dated 6/1/22, the PASRR indicated Yes for Section III - Serious Mental Illness Screen: 10. Does the individual have a diagnosed mental disorder such as Depression, Anxiety, Panic, Schizophrenia/Schizoaffective Disorder, Psychotic, Delusional, and/or Mood Disorder? During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/27/24 at 3:33 p.m. with the MDS Coordinator (MDSC), Resident 63's MDS dated [DATE] was reviewed. MDS section A1500 PASRR indicated No for question Is the resident currently considered by the state level II PASRR process to have serious mental illness and/or intellectual disability or a related condition? The MDSC confirmed that section A1500 on the MDS dated [DATE] should have been coded Yes for that question. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI/MDS) revised 11/2012. The P&P indicated, The Resident Assessment Instrument will be completed timely and accurately, per Federal Guidelines, and will serve as a foundation for the comprehensive care planning process.

F 0644 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for services as needed. During a review of Resident 61's PASRR dated 9/28/21, the PASRR indicated, the level I PASRR was positive, and Resident 61 would need a level II PASRR completed. Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 3/28/24, at 10:13 a.m. with the MDSC, MDSC stated, Resident 61 was in isolation due to an infectious disease when he was scheduled for the level II PASRR, so it was closed. They never followed through to complete a new level II PASRR. Resident 61 did not get the required level II PASRR Screen. Review of the facility's policy Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR), dated July 2016, indicated A PASRR will be completed and submitted online for new admission within 24 hours, and Recommendations from the Determination Letter will be included in the individuals Plan of Care. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a Level II PASRR (Pre-admission Screening and Resident Review, a federal requirement to help ensure individuals with mental disorders and intellectual disabilities are not inappropriately placed in nursing homes for long-term care) was completed for two of 24 residents (Residents 41 and 61). This failure had the potential to put the residents at risk for not receiving appropriate care and services for their mental health conditions. Findings: Review of Resident 41's clinical record indicated they had diagnoses including paraplegia (the inability to move the lower part of the body, schizophrenia (a mental condition) and morbid obesity (too much body weight). Review of Resident 41's record, indicated Resident 41 had a positive Level I PASRR screen, completed on 9/28/21. Review of Resident 41's record also indicated the Level II PASRR was not completed due to the reason The Individual was isolated as a health and safety precaution, in a letter dated 2/18/22. During an interview on 3/27/24 at 1:52 p.m. with the Minimum Data Set Coordinator (MDSC), the MDSC stated the Level I PASRR was done either on admission or prior to admission, and that all PASRR letters were uploaded into the electronic health record (EHR). The MDSC also stated It's a team effort as to who is responsible for making sure the PASRR is done. During a follow up interview on 3/28/24 at 9:43 a.m. with the MDSC, the MDSC stated the state portal website for PASRR does not trigger if a Level II was not done.

Review of Resident 74's admission Record indicated, Resident 74 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including hypo-osmolality (a condition where the levels of electrolytes, proteins, and nutrients in the blood are lower than normal) and hyponatremia (low sodium [can be found in table salt or in processed foods] level in blood), adult failure to thrive (when an older adult has a loss of appetite, eats and drinks less than usual, loses weight, and is less active), depression (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest), alcohol use, and weakness. Review of Resident 74's clinical records titled, Social Services Assessment & Documentation, dated 2/29/2024, indicated, .Wife dies 3 weeks ago .b. Typical mood throughout life: sad. Further review indicated, resident verbalized feeling sad and depressed since the passing of his wife 3 weeks ago . Review of Resident 74's Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment tool) Admission/5-day assessment dated [DATE], indicated, Resident 74's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS, an assessment to test a person's cognition level) was 15 [a score of 0 to 7 indicates severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 moderate impairment, 13-15 patient is cognitively intact], which indicated Resident 74 had an intact cognition. Further review of the MDS indicated, Resident 74 had a total severity score of 07 in the mood interview which indicated, Resident 74 had mild depression. During a concurrent observation and interview on 3/24/2024 at 3:00 p.m. inside Resident 74's room, Resident 74 was sitting up on wheelchair. Resident 74 stated he lost his wife in February. During an interview with Social Service Director (SSD) on 3/27/2024 at 1:13 p.m., SSD stated Resident 74 did not get up upon admission, had lack of motivation, and preferred to stay in his room. SSD further stated Resident 74 refused to participate therapy. SSD confirmed she offered a psychiatry or psychology consult but Resident 74 declined. During a follow up interview and record review on 3/27/2024 on 3:25 p.m., SSD reviewed Resident 74's MDS, list of care plans and social services (SS) documentations.

F 0700 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to attempt, offer, and document the use of bed rail (adjustable metal or rigid plastic bars that attach to the bed) alternatives for 17 of 67 residents (Resident 6, 10, 15, 19, 24, 29, 31, 40, 43, 54, 61, 62, 66, 80, 81, 84, and 94) , and obtain informed consent for one of 67 residents (Resident 199) prior to installation of the bed rails. These failures had the potential to put the residents at risk for entrapment and serious injury. Findings: During the initial tour observation on 3/24/24 at 2:25 p.m., Resident 6, 10, 15, 19, 24, 29, 31, 40, 43, 54, 61, 62, 66, 80, 81, 84, 94, and 199 had upper bed rails elevated and in use. During a concurrent observation and interview on 3/27/24 at 3:02 p.m. with the Director of Staff Develement (DSD), the DSD confirmed above residents had bed rails elevated and in use. She stated the bed rails were for turning and repositioning. During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/28/24 at 9:08 a.m. with the Medical Record Director (MRD), Resident 199's bed rail consent was reviewed. The consent indicated it was signed on 3/25/24, and the MRD confirmed that there was no other bed rail consent. During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/29/24 at 8:44 a.m. with the administrator (ADM), Resident 6, 10, 15, 19, 24, 29, 31, 40, 43, 54, 61, 62, 66, 80, 81, 84, and 94's Bed Rail Evaluations and Resident 199's Bed Rail Consent were reviewed. The ADM stated bed rail evaluation and consent should be done and obtained before using the bed rails. She confirmed there were no documentation evidences indicated the use of alternatives for Resident 6, 10, 15, 19, 24, 29, 31, 40, 43, 54, 61, 62, 66, 80, 81, 84, and 94. She also confirmed Resident 199's bed rail consent was obtained after the bed rails were already installed and in use. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled SIDE-RAIL SAFETY revised 11/2012, the P&P indicated, Bed rails should only be used to enable the resident to facilitate mobility. Bed rails will be used in a safe manner, which prevents injury, when any type of Rails is required to assist with bed mobility or used per resident's request for an increased sense of security; by the interdisciplinary team IDT as a physical restrict per restraint policy and procedure. Another alternative should be attempted prior to use of side rails as a restraint, such as low beds, mats, alarms, toileting schedules, or other less restrictive devices. 1. Side-rail safety assessment will be done by a licensed nurse and/or the IDT on admission (if rails are used); when side0rails are implemented; and no less often than quarterly as long as any type of side-rail is being used by a resident.
