Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Riceville Family Care And Therapy Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to accurately document and submit MDS assessments for three residents, leading to discrepancies in the recorded use of anti-anxiety medications. The MDS assessments did not reflect the administration of Buspirone during the 7-day lookback period, despite the MAR showing its administration. The MDS Coordinator admitted to coding Buspirone incorrectly as an antidepressant instead of an anti-anxiety medication.
A facility failed to update the PASRR for a resident newly diagnosed with major depressive disorder. The resident had moderately impaired cognition and existing mental health conditions, but the PASRR did not reflect any mental health diagnosis. A psychiatry visit later documented major depressive disorder and other conditions, along with prescribed medications. The DON admitted that a new PASRR should have been completed after the diagnosis and medication changes.
The facility failed to provide baseline care plan summaries to four residents or their representatives within 48 hours of admission. The Director of Nursing acknowledged the incomplete documentation and lack of review, which did not comply with the facility's policy.
Inaccurate MDS Documentation for Anti-Anxiety Medications
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to accurately document and submit Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments for three residents, leading to discrepancies in the recorded use of anti-anxiety medications. Resident #5's MDS assessment indicated severe cognitive impairment and included diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and dementia. However, the MDS did not document the administration of Buspirone, an anti-anxiety medication, during the 7-day lookback period, despite the Medication Administration Record (MAR) showing its administration in November and December 2024. Similarly, Resident #13's MDS assessment showed moderate cognitive impairment with diagnoses of depression, anxiety, unspecified mood disorder, and dementia, but failed to document the administration of Buspirone during the lookback period, as reflected in the December 2024 MAR. Resident #15's MDS also omitted the administration of Buspirone during the lookback period, despite its documentation in the December 2024 MAR. The MDS Coordinator admitted to incorrectly coding Buspirone as an antidepressant instead of an anti-anxiety medication, contrary to the RAI Manual's instructions to code medications according to their pharmacological classification.
Failure to Update PASRR for New Major Depression Diagnosis
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to complete a new Preadmission and Resident Review (PASRR) evaluation for a resident who was newly diagnosed with major depressive disorder. The resident, identified as having moderately impaired cognition with a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10, had existing diagnoses of depression, anxiety, unspecified mood disorder, and dementia. However, the PASRR dated 11/17/22 did not document any mental health diagnosis. A subsequent psychiatry visit note dated 1/3/25 revealed the resident had major depressive disorder, insomnia, anxiety, and visual hallucinations, along with medications prescribed for these conditions. During an interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged that the transferring facility completed the initial PASRR, but a new PASRR should have been completed following the new diagnosis and medication changes.
Failure to Provide Baseline Care Plan Summaries
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to provide residents or their representatives with a summary of the baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission for four residents. Resident #125, who had intact cognition and required partial assistance with bed mobility and transfers, did not receive a reviewed or signed baseline care plan. Similarly, Resident #126, who entered the facility from the community, also lacked documentation of a reviewed or signed baseline care plan. Both residents' forms were incomplete and lacked necessary signatures and dates from staff, residents, or their representatives. Resident #9, who had intact cognition and was dependent on staff for bed mobility and transfers, also did not receive a reviewed or signed baseline care plan. Additionally, Resident #23, who required partial assistance with various transfers and had multiple diagnoses including cancer and heart failure, did not have a reviewed or signed baseline care plan. The Director of Nursing acknowledged these deficiencies, confirming that the baseline care plans were not reviewed with the residents or their representatives, and copies were not provided. The facility's policy mandates the development and implementation of a baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission, including resident involvement and a summary provided to the resident or their representative, which was not adhered to in these cases.
