Facility Assessment Failed to Include Residents with PTSD
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure its facility-wide assessment accurately reflected the needs of its resident population, specifically by omitting residents with a diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Medical record review showed that a resident was admitted with PTSD, among other diagnoses, and received services for this condition during the assessment period. However, the facility assessment for the specified period did not include PTSD as a diagnosis present in the resident population, nor did it address the resources necessary to care for residents with this condition. During an interview, the Administrator confirmed that the facility had residents with PTSD and that this diagnosis was not included in the facility assessment.
