Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident with a specialized mental health diagnosis was referred to the appropriate state-designated authority for a Pre-admission Screening & Resident Review (PASRR) evaluation and determination. Record review showed that the resident was admitted from a hospital with a mental health diagnosis, but there was no evidence in the clinical record that a PASRR Level I screening was completed or submitted to the state authority prior to admission. This deficiency was confirmed during an interview with the Social Services Director and the Administrator, who acknowledged the absence of required PASRR documentation in the resident's record.
