Summary
The facility failed to ensure the accuracy of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for one resident. Specifically, the MDS assessment indicated that the resident received one insulin injection during the seven-day look-back period. However, a review of the resident's medication administration record for the same period showed no documented evidence that the resident received any insulin injections. This discrepancy was confirmed during an interview with the Director of Nursing, who acknowledged that the resident did not receive insulin as recorded in the MDS assessment. The inaccurate documentation in the MDS assessment did not accurately reflect the resident's medication administration status during the specified period.
