Summary
The facility failed to ensure timely completion and transmission of Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments for one of three sampled residents reviewed for resident assessment. Specifically, a resident was admitted to the facility and had a Quarterly MDS assessment with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) that remained incomplete and in 'in progress' status beyond the required 14 days after the ARD. Interviews with the staff member responsible for MDS completion and the Director of Nursing confirmed that the assessment was not completed or transmitted to the State within the mandated timeframe.
