Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During a phone interview on 06/16/2025 at about 11:00 am the Resource Nurse / MDS Nurse stated Resident #1 was positive for PASRR due to ID and was being skilled by PT/OT/ ST. The Resource Nurse also stated Resident #1 was being skilled upon admission therefore his PASRR services were not approved until his Medicaid was approved. She stated Resident #1's services were based on the initial IDT meeting held on 4/15/2025 after his PASRR approval. The Resource Nurse stated specialized services should be provided to the Resident by the 20th day after IDT meeting. Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 06/16/2025 at about 11:27 am, the DOR stated Resident #1's PASRR meeting was held on 1/21/2025 while he was still being skilled. The DOR stated the IDT team discussed customized wheelchair and mattress (pressure relieving). The DOR stated Resident #1 was skilled from 12/04/2025 through 2/3/2025. She stated she submitted a referral for PASRR services on 2/4/2025 and she kept getting push backs for so many reasons. The DOR stated Resident #1's customized wheelchair was delivered on 5/15/2025, the mattress would have been delivered earlier but was not ordered duet to safety reasons (there was another resident on the same mattress who kept falling off). The DOR stated she did not document in Resident #1's records why the mattress was not ordered. The DOR stated PASRR forms should be submitted by day 20. The DOR stated she communicated to the PASRR representative why she did not order the mattress but did not note it in Resident #1's Portal profile. During a telephone interview on 06/16/2025 at 12:23 pm, the PASRR Program Specialist stated when a resident was admitted and was PASRR positive, an IDT meeting was held, and services were recommended. The facility then had 20 business days to send the NFSS out for approvals. She stated Resident #1's facility did not send the form within 20 business days. She stated that was when she sent out a courtesy email encouraging compliance. She stated if she received no response from that, she then made a complaint to HHSC. She stated if the facility did not document within the timeframe, regardless of what the issue was the facility was not in compliance. She stated the facility was responsible to document in the long-term portal the services recommended and if those services were provided for the resident within the timeframe. During an interview on 06/16/25 at 12:34 pm, the Administrator stated she after the PASRR IDT meeting, it was the expectation that the facility communicates with PASRR and provide the services as was discussed in the IDT meeting.
