Failure to Resubmit PASARRs After New Mental Health Diagnoses
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to resubmit Level II PASARRs after new mental health diagnoses were added for 6 residents reviewed for PASARR compliance. Facility policy stated that residents with a significant change in status, including newly evident or possible serious mental disorder, intellectual disability, or related condition, should be referred for Level II resident review. Review of records and interviews showed that the Assistant Director of Nursing was responsible for making these referrals after new mental health diagnoses were identified and added to the medical record, but she did not refer the affected residents to the state designated agency. For Resident #6, the record showed an initial Level I PASARR with depression, followed by new diagnoses of Major Depression, Delusional Disorders, and Psychotic Disorder, but no new Level II PASARR was submitted. Resident #9 had an initial PASARR listing Major Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Anxiety Disorder, then later received a new diagnosis of Delusional Disorder without a new Level II PASARR submission. Resident #10 had schizophrenia on the initial PASARR and later received a new diagnosis of Psychotic/Delusional Disorder, but no new Level II PASARR was submitted after that change. Similar findings were identified for Resident #47, Resident #48, and Resident #63. Resident #47 had an initial PASARR listing Major Depression and later developed Delusional Disorders; Resident #48 had no mental health diagnosis on the initial PASARR but later had Major Depressive Disorder, Anxiety Disorder, and Psychotic/Delusional Disorder; and Resident #63 had Major Depression and Bipolar Disorder on the initial PASARR and later developed Psychotic/Delusional Disorder. The ADON confirmed the missed referrals, and the DON confirmed the facility policy for referring residents to the state agency after identifying new mental health conditions was not followed.
Failure to Deliver Resident Mail on Saturdays
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure residents had reasonable access to and privacy in their use of communication methods by not delivering mail on Saturdays to 9 residents reviewed for mail delivery. The facility policy titled Mail Distribution to Patients stated that CMS requires mail to be distributed within 24 hours of delivery by the Postal Service and that the center should have a system to deliver mail within 24 hours, including weekends and when Life Enrichment is out of the building. During the Resident Council meeting and interviews, the 9 residents stated they did not receive mail on Saturdays and had to wait until Monday when staff were in the front office. In an interview, the Administrator confirmed that facility staff were not delivering mail to residents on Saturdays, even though the Postal Service delivered mail to the facility on Saturdays, and stated it was his expectation that residents receive their mail on Saturdays as they would on weekdays.
