During today’s visit at 12:10PM, the LPA and Licensee conducted a physical plant tour, and no immediate concerns were observed. The following was then determined: Report Continued on LIC 9099-C Unsubstantiated Allegation: “Staff did not ensure resident participated in the planning of their care” It was reported that the Licensee overstepped their role during R1’s doctor’s appointment. Interview with R1 revealed that after their hospice agency unexpectedly discharged them, the Licensee advised residents to obtain updated assessments and medication orders from their physicians. R1 stated the Licensee assisted with transportation and accompanied them to the appointment. R1 alleged that the Licensee asked the doctor whether R1 had dementia, which the doctor denied. The Licensee denied overstepping and stated they initially scheduled the appointment without R1’s consent but apologized and offered to cancel it; R1 chose to proceed. The Licensee stated they accompanied R1 to explain the hospice discharge and answer questions. After introductions and providing needed information, the Licensee reported that they left the room to allow R1 privacy with the physician. The Licensee acknowledged that R1 does not have dementia and is alert and oriented. Interview with Resident #2 (R2) revealed no concerns. R2 stated the Licensee maintains appropriate communication regarding their care and denied any incident of overstepping. Based on interviews, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is insufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. Allegation: “Staff are not adhering to admission agreement” It was reported that the facility did not follow the admission agreement by requesting R1 to change the payee’s name on their monthly checks. R1 stated they provide checks payable to the facility on the 1st each month. R1 observed that their April check was not cashed until April 28th and expressed frustration that the funds remained in their account for an extended period. Report Continued on LIC 9099-C The Licensee reported resident payment methods vary by preference, and R1 preferred to write checks and provide them on the 1st. The Licensee stated their bank is far from the facility and they planned to deposit R1’s check on a day when travel would be convenient. R1 then requested the Licensee deposit the check as soon as possible. The Licensee stated they suggested R1 rewrite the check addressed to the Licensee personally so it could be deposited online, which would be immediate, but ultimately deposited the original check at the bank on April 28th. Based on interviews, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is insufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. Allegation: “Staff do not ensure resident is provided copies of records” It was reported that the Licensee requested residents to sign documents without providing copies. Interviews did not reveal any concerns. R1 had facility-related documents at their bedside and stated they received copies of all applicable paperwork. R2 stated they do not wish to keep copies but were confident the Licensee would provide them upon request. A resident’s Power of Attorney (POA) also stated they did not want copies but confirmed the Licensee offered them and had no issues obtaining documents when needed. Based on interviews, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is insufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time.
