Health deficiencies cited at Pruitthealth - Lakeside, Llc during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Improper Dating and Storage of Food Items: Food items in the freezer and dry storage were found open, undated, or expired, including squash, salami, cake, ground beef, ice cream, orange juice, animal crackers, hot dog buns, and sliced bread. The KM and AKM acknowledged the labeling and expiration issues and confirmed they were responsible for checking food storage and ensuring items were properly labeled and stored.
A resident with intellectual disabilities and schizoaffective disorder did not receive a correct PASARR Level I screening, so a Level II PASARR referral was not made. The MDS showed the resident had not been evaluated for Level II PASARR, and staff confirmed the resident was admitted with schizophrenia but the diagnosis was not triggered on the Level I screening, preventing the Level II review from being initiated.
A facility failed to submit a timely MDS assessment for a resident with multiple diagnoses, including chronic kidney disease and diabetes. The MDS Coordinator completed the assessment, but it was rejected due to missing information and issues with a new system. The DHS confirmed the delay, expecting timely completion and submission of assessments.
A facility failed to ensure accurate MDS assessments for a resident, specifically in coding the PASARR Level II. The MDS did not reflect the PASARR Level II assessment, despite it being conducted earlier. The MDS Coordinator acknowledged the error, and the DON expected accurate coding, but no facility policy was in place for MDS accuracy.
Improper Dating and Storage of Food Items
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure food items in the walk-in refrigerator, freezer, emergency water/food supply, and dry storage were properly dated and that expired foods were disposed of, based on observations, staff interviews, and review of the facility policy titled "Labeling, Dating, and Storage." The policy stated that food and beverage items must have an identifying label, received date, and opened date as applicable, and that items prepared onsite must also have a use-by date. During the initial tour, the freezer was observed to contain opened items including a bag of squash, a box of red velvet layer cake, a bag of sliced salami, boxes of ground beef, vanilla ice cream, and orange juice that were open with no received date or open date. Single bag items of squash and salami were also not dated. In the dry food pantry, a box of animal crackers with 150 bags had an expiration date of 04/11/2026, and the bread rack contained five loaves of hot dog buns and three loaves of sliced white bread that had also expired on 04/11/2026. The Assistant Kitchen Manager and Kitchen Manager acknowledged the expired items and the lack of proper labeling, and the Kitchen Manager stated that she and the Assistant Kitchen Manager were responsible for ensuring food was checked, labeled, and stored correctly.
PASARR Screening Not Completed for Resident With Schizoaffective Disorder
Penalty
Summary
PASARR screening for mental disorders or intellectual disabilities was not completed correctly for one resident with diagnoses including unspecified intellectual disabilities, schizoaffective disorder, and degenerative disease of the nervous system. Record review showed the resident had schizoaffective disorder on admission, and the annual MDS indicated the resident had not been evaluated for Level II PASARR. The care plan also documented resistive behavior during care, including swinging at staff, and psychotropic drug use with plans for psych consultation and medication review. The Level I PASARR dated 03/09/2023 did not trigger for schizophrenia, and staff interviews confirmed that a Level II PASARR referral was not sent because the Level I screening did not identify that diagnosis. The SSD and DON both confirmed the resident was diagnosed with intellectual disabilities and schizophrenia and stated the resident was admitted with schizophrenia, but the Level I PASARR was incorrect because schizophrenia was not triggered. The DON stated the SSD was responsible for verifying that the Level I PASARR diagnoses were correct so that Level II PASARR services could be provided as needed.
Delayed Submission of MDS Assessment
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the timely submission of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for one resident, identified as R49. This deficiency was identified through staff interviews and record reviews. R49 was admitted to the facility with multiple diagnoses, including chronic kidney disease stage 5, type 2 diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, among others. The resident's medication regimen included atorvastatin, Breo Ellipta, buspirone, clopidogrel, gabapentin, hydroxyzine, pantoprazole, paricalcitol, and paroxetine Hcl. The last completed Quarterly MDS assessment for R49 was dated 10/10/2024, and the subsequent assessment was still in progress at the time of the survey. The MDS Coordinator, who was responsible for completing the assessments, confirmed that R49's Quarterly assessment was completed on 1/24/2025 but was rejected on 2/3/2025 due to missing information in Section O (therapy). The assessment was being corrected, but there were issues with inputting the information due to a transition into a new system. The Director of Health Services (DHS) confirmed that the Quarterly MDS assessment for R49 was not completed within the required timeframe. The DHS expected the MDS assessments to be completed and processed timely, and if there were concerns with transmission or completion, the MDS Coordinator was expected to seek assistance from the DHS or the corporate liaison.
Inaccurate MDS Coding for PASARR Level II
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the accuracy of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments for a resident, specifically regarding the coding of the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) Level II. The MDS OBRA Annual Assessment for the resident, dated 12/19/24, did not reflect the PASARR Level II assessment, which had been conducted with a start date of 8/25/23. The MDS Coordinator acknowledged the oversight, confirming that the resident had been issued a PASARR Level II on 8/5/2023, but the MDS was not accurately coded. The Director of Nursing (DON) expected the MDS Coordinator to ensure accurate coding, but there was no facility policy in place for MDS accuracy, and the MDS Coordinator relied on the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) for guidance.
