interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the responsible party (RP) and hospice provider for
one of three sampled residents (Resident 1) were notified when a psychotherapeutic medication (a class of
drugs that alter brain chemistry to treat cognitive, emotional, and behavioral conditions) was discontinued.
This failure resulted in Resident 1's RP and hospice provider not to be part of the decision-making process.
Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, (AR) the AR indicated, Resident 1 was
admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses included senile degeneration of the brain (a syndrome of progressive
decline in mental functions; impacting memory, reasoning, and the ability to perform everyday activities,
caused by an underlying disease of the brain), Dementia (a decline in mental ability that affects a person's
daily life; characterized by a loss of cognitive functioning, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning,
that worsens over time), and major depressive disorder with severe psychotic symptoms (a severe mental
illness where an individual experiences both major depression and psychosis, typically as delusions or
hallucinations that align with their depressed mood). The AR indicated Resident 1 had an RP and was
under the care of hospice. During a concurrent interview and record review, on 8/19/25 at 2:45 p.m. with
Quality Assurance Nurse (QAN), Resident 1's IDT (Interdisciplinary Team - a group of health care
professionals with various areas of expertise who work together to improve patient safety and outcomes.
The IDT must, at a minimum, consist of the resident's attending physician, a registered nurse and nurse
aide with responsibility for the resident, . the resident and resident representative, if applicable)

Assistant gave the recommendation to discontinue Quetiapine (used to treat serious mental illness), and
the IDT team agreed to discontinue the Quetiapine. Resident 1's medical record was reviewed. QAN stated
there was no documentation Resident 1's RP or hospice provider were notified of the discontinued
medication. QAN stated Resident 1's RP and hospice provider should have been notified. During a review
of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered, revised
