F 0644 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for services as needed. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record reviews the facility failed to coordinate assessments with the PASARR program for 1 (Resident #8) of 5 residents reviewed for PASARR. The MDS Coordinator failed to ensure Resident #8 was referred to the local authority for evaluation of a positive PASRR I. This failure placed the residents at risk of not receiving specialized services for their mental illness. Findings included: Review of Resident #8's admission Record revealed she was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included major depressive disorder, dementia, and anxiety. On 11/16/22 an additional diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type was added. Review of Resident #8's quarterly MDS, dated [DATE] revealed her BIMS score was not calculated related to her medical conditions.

She stated they did not have a full time MDS Coordinator, the previous coordinator had taken a full time job elsewhere but would help the facility out when she could.
