Failure to Transmit Discharge MDS Assessment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to encode and transmit a discharge Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for a resident who was moved from a certified household to a licensed-only household. The policy required the MDS Coordinator to complete the appropriate MDS assessment when a resident was transferred from a certified to a non-certified household. However, upon review, it was found that the MDS discharge assessment for the resident's move was not completed or transmitted as required. The resident was initially admitted to the certified Biscayne household and later moved to the licensed-only Key West household. This move necessitated a discharge MDS assessment to reflect the change in certification status. During an interview, the MDS Coordinator acknowledged the oversight, confirming that the discharge MDS assessment was not completed or transmitted for the resident, as the resident's return was not anticipated.
Failure to Provide Discharge Summary for Resident Transfer
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a discharge summary, including a recapitulation of the resident's stay, was provided for one of the sampled residents. The policy titled Transfer and Discharge Rights, revised in October 2024, requires that information provided to the receiving community or provider should include a discharge summary. However, upon review, it was found that the discharge packet for Resident #3 did not include this summary. Resident #3 was initially admitted to the Biscayne household, a certified unit, and later moved to a non-certified, licensed-only household within the facility. Despite the completion of a discharge Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, the record lacked a discharge assessment and summary, only containing a Room Change Notification. During an interview, Staff B, a Registered Nurse, explained that when a resident is discharged from the Biscayne household to another household within the facility, she completes a functional assessment and gives a verbal report to the accepting nurse, treating it like a room change. However, she does not complete a discharge summary, which she acknowledged would make sense since the resident was moving from a certified to a non-certified household. This oversight led to the deficiency noted by the surveyors, as the facility did not adhere to its policy of providing a discharge summary when a resident is moved out of a certified household.
