Summary
The facility failed to transmit an admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment within the required timeframe for one resident. According to the facility's policy, the admission assessment must be completed and transmitted within 14 days of admission, counting the day of admission as day one. Record review showed that a resident was admitted on 07/03/2025, and the admission MDS with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 07/09/2025 remained open and untransmitted as of 07/29/2025. An interview with an LPN confirmed that the assessment should have been completed and transmitted by 07/22/2025, but this was not done.
