Summary
The facility failed to make the results of its most recent survey readily accessible to residents, families, and their legal representatives. During an observation, the survey binder located near the main entrance did not contain the recertification results from the last survey. In interviews and record reviews, both the Senior President of Clinical Operations and the Administrator confirmed that the previous year's survey results were missing from the binder, with the Administrator stating that a staff member had removed the results and not returned them. The facility's policy and procedure on resident rights specifies that residents have the right to examine survey results, but this was not upheld as required.
