Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Ross Memorial Health Care Ctr during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility did not promptly report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft, nor did it communicate the results of its investigation to the proper authorities as required.
A resident who returned from the hospital with new orders for continuous oxygen therapy and use of a Bi-pap device did not have these respiratory needs addressed in their updated care plan. The omission was identified during the care planning process, despite the resident's recent hospitalization for pneumonia and ongoing use of both oxygen and Bi-pap.
A resident's insurance provider was changed to Medicare without notifying or obtaining consent from the legal guardian, despite facility policy requiring such notification and documentation. The responsible party was not consulted or informed prior to the change, and this was confirmed by the Business Office Manager.
Failure to Timely Report Suspected Abuse, Neglect, or Theft
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and did not report the results of the investigation to the proper authorities. This deficiency is based on the observation that when an incident of suspected abuse, neglect, or theft occurred, the required notifications and reporting procedures were not followed as mandated. The report specifically notes the lack of timely communication and documentation to the appropriate authorities regarding both the suspicion and the outcome of the internal investigation.
Failure to Update Care Plan for New Oxygen and Bi-pap Orders
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to implement a complete care plan for a resident who returned from the hospital with new physician orders for continuous oxygen administration at 2 liters per minute via nasal cannula. The resident, who had been hospitalized with pneumonia, was observed using oxygen and had a Bi-pap machine at bedside. Despite these new respiratory needs, the five-day care plan developed after the resident's return did not address the oxygen or Bi-pap requirements. The omission was confirmed by the MDS Coordinator during the assessment and care planning process, who acknowledged that the respiratory components were not included in the resident's care plan.
Failure to Notify Legal Guardian Before Insurance Change
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to obtain consent or permission from the responsible party (RP) before changing the insurance provider for one of the sampled residents. According to the facility's policies, staff are required to promptly inform and consult with the resident or their legal representative regarding significant changes, including those related to health care decisions and insurance. In this case, review of the electronic medical record (EMR) showed no documentation of any conversation with the resident's legal guardian about the change to Medicare, despite a guardianship order being present in the record. During an interview, the Business Office Manager confirmed that the legal guardian was not notified and that the admission assistant made the insurance change without obtaining the necessary permission.
