Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Wheat State Manor during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
The facility failed to ensure that three residents received the required CMS forms related to Medicare/Medicaid coverage and potential liability for services not covered. The facility did not issue CMS 10123 or CMS 10055 for these residents, resulting in a lack of information about their rights to expedited review for discontinuation of therapies and the estimated cost of continuing therapies.
The facility failed to ensure residents received up-to-date COVID-19 vaccinations and opportunities to rescind previous declinations. Medical records of five residents showed no COVID-19 vaccinations were offered in 2023, despite the facility's policy requiring staff to offer the vaccine and allow residents to change their decision. This was confirmed by an interview with the Administrative Nurse.
The facility failed to obtain a reassessment for a resident with schizophrenia and other mental health issues as required by the PASRR program. Despite a temporary 12-month period for stabilization indicated in the PASRR determination letter, the facility did not follow up for a reassessment after the Covid pandemic crisis ended. Interviews confirmed the oversight, and the facility lacked a policy for PASRR.
The facility failed to review and revise the care plan for a resident with a cerebral infarction regarding the use of eyeglasses. Despite the resident's intact cognition and need for glasses, the care plan lacked instructions on their use. The resident reported her glasses had been broken for a long time, and staff confirmed no action had been taken to fix them or update the care plan.
A resident with a diagnosis of cerebral infarction and intact cognition reported that her glasses had been broken for a long time and that she had informed the staff, but no action had been taken. As a result, she had to wear her old glasses, which did not provide adequate vision. Multiple staff members were unaware of the issue, and the facility lacked a policy regarding resident eyeglasses. The issue was only addressed after it was brought to the attention of Social Services staff.
The facility failed to ensure reevaluation of PRN clonazepam for a resident beyond the 14-day period and did not conduct AIMS assessments for another resident on antipsychotic medication. This resulted in non-compliance with the facility's policies on psychotropic medication use and monitoring for adverse effects.
The facility failed to display accurate, publicly accessible, and identifiable staffing information daily for its 38 residents. A review of the Daily Staffing Sheets revealed that the actual hours worked had not been completed. An Administrative Nurse was unaware of the requirement to include actual hours worked. The facility's policy required this information, but it was not properly completed.
Failure to Issue Required CMS Forms for Medicare/Medicaid Coverage
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that three residents received the required CMS forms related to Medicare/Medicaid coverage and potential liability for services not covered. Specifically, Resident 40 was discharged from skilled therapy on 12/21/23, but the facility did not issue CMS 10123 or CMS 10055. The resident remained in the facility and was placed on hospice services on 01/02/24. Resident 95's skilled services ended on 10/18/23, and while CMS 10055 was issued to the responsible party by email on 10/23/23, CMS 10123 was not issued. This resident also remained in the facility and went on hospice services on 10/27/23. Resident 96's skilled services ended on 11/19/23, and although CMS 10055 was issued, it was incomplete and did not include the estimated cost of continued services. CMS 10123 was not issued, and the resident discharged from the facility on 11/20/23. An interview with Administrative Staff B on 03/11/24 revealed that neither she nor Social Service Staff X knew to issue CMS 10123 for skilled services and that the facility did not have a policy for the issuance of these forms. The facility lacked a policy for CMS 10123 or CMS 10055 at the time of the required issuance for the above residents but did develop a policy on 03/11/24. The facility's failure to issue CMS 10123 and CMS 10055 meant that residents and their responsible parties were not informed of their rights to expedited review for discontinuation of therapies and the estimated cost of continuing therapies as required.
Failure to Offer Timely COVID-19 Vaccinations and Rescind Declinations
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that residents received up-to-date COVID-19 vaccinations and were given opportunities to rescind previous declinations. Specifically, the medical records of five residents were reviewed, revealing that none of them were offered COVID-19 vaccinations in 2023. For instance, one resident received a COVID-19 vaccination in November 2022 but was not offered another in 2023. Another resident who declined the vaccine in January 2021 was not given further opportunities to change their decision in 2022 or 2023. These findings were confirmed by an interview with the Administrative Nurse, who acknowledged the lack of documentation indicating that COVID-19 vaccinations were offered in 2023. The facility's policy, revised in May 2023, instructed staff to ensure each resident is offered the COVID-19 vaccine unless medically contraindicated or fully vaccinated, and to allow residents to change their decision regarding vaccination acceptance or declination. However, the facility did not adhere to this policy, resulting in a failure to offer timely COVID-19 vaccinations and opportunities for residents to make informed decisions about their vaccination status.
Failure to Obtain PASRR Reassessment for Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to obtain a reassessment for a resident (R20) to determine mental health needs as required by the Pre-admission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program. R20's medical record revealed diagnoses including schizophrenia, psychotic disorder, delusions, hallucinations, and osteomyelitis. Despite an Annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) indicating normal cognitive status, the resident had recent delusions resulting in a transfer to an inpatient psychiatric facility and was receiving antipsychotic medication. The PASRR determination letter indicated a temporary 12-month period for stabilization, after which a reassessment was needed. However, the medical record lacked documentation of this reassessment. Interviews with Social Services Staff X and Administrative Staff A confirmed that the facility failed to follow up with the State Agency for a reassessment in a timely manner after the Covid pandemic crisis ended. Additionally, the facility lacked a policy for PASRR, further contributing to the oversight. The deficiency was identified during a review of the facility's census, which included 13 residents selected for review, highlighting the facility's failure to request a reassessment for R20 to determine continued care needs in a nursing facility for mental health as required.
Failure to Revise Care Plan for Resident's Eyeglasses
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to review and revise the care plan for Resident 19 regarding the use of eyeglasses. Resident 19, who has a diagnosis of cerebral infarction and intact cognition as indicated by a BIMS score of 14, required glasses for her vision. Despite this, the care plan revised on 02/01/24 lacked staff instructions on the resident's use of eyeglasses. The resident reported on 03/06/24 that her glasses had been broken for a long time and had not been repaired, forcing her to wear old glasses and impairing her vision. Staff interviews confirmed that the resident's glasses had been broken for an extended period, and no action had been taken to fix them or update the care plan accordingly. On 03/11/24, both a Licensed Nurse and an Administrative Nurse acknowledged that eyeglasses should have been included in the resident's care plan. The facility's policy for Care Plans, revised in March 2022, states that assessments of residents are ongoing and care plans should be revised as information about the resident changes. However, the facility did not adhere to this policy, resulting in the failure to address the resident's need for functional eyeglasses in her care plan.
Failure to Repair Resident's Glasses in a Timely Manner
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident received adequate assistive devices to maintain proper vision by not repairing her glasses in a timely manner. The resident, who had a diagnosis of cerebral infarction and an intact cognition score, reported that her glasses had been broken for a long time and that she had informed the staff, but no action had been taken. As a result, she had to wear her old glasses, which did not provide adequate vision. Multiple staff members, including CNAs and nurses, were unaware of the issue, and the facility lacked a policy regarding resident eyeglasses. The resident's electronic medical record and care plan did not include instructions on the use of eyeglasses, and the Quarterly MDS did not assess her vision. Despite the resident's repeated complaints, the issue was not addressed until it was brought to the attention of Social Services staff, who then took steps to have the glasses repaired. The facility's failure to act promptly on the resident's need for functional eyeglasses resulted in a deficiency in providing necessary assistive devices for proper vision.
Failure to Reevaluate PRN Psychotropic Medication and Monitor for Side Effects
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that one resident (R13) received reevaluation for the continued use of PRN clonazepam beyond the 14-day initial period as required. R13 had diagnoses including cerebral infarction, aphasia, anxiety, and dementia. The resident's care plan instructed staff to monitor for side effects of psychotropic medication and document occurrences of anxiety. Despite receiving multiple doses of clonazepam over several months, the facility did not follow up on the pharmacy's recommendation to reevaluate the PRN use and indicate a length of time for its use. The administrative nurse confirmed that the physician did not reevaluate the medication as required by the facility's policy on psychotropic medication use, which mandates reassessment beyond 14 days unless otherwise documented by the prescriber. This oversight was confirmed through interviews and record reviews, revealing a failure to adhere to the policy and ensure proper medication management for R13. Additionally, the facility failed to monitor another resident (R11) for side effects of antipsychotic medication using the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS). R11 had diagnoses of delusional disorder and malignant neoplasm of the bladder and lung. The resident's care plan instructed staff to monitor for side effects of Haldol, an antipsychotic medication prescribed for delusional disorder. However, the resident's electronic medical record lacked documentation of an AIMS assessment, which is essential for detecting tardive dyskinesia, a potential side effect of antipsychotic medications. Interviews with licensed nurses and administrative staff confirmed that AIMS assessments should be completed upon the initiation of antipsychotic medication and periodically thereafter, but this was not done for R11, indicating a failure to adequately monitor for adverse consequences as required by the facility's policy.
Failure to Display Accurate Daily Staffing Information
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to display accurate, publicly accessible, and identifiable staffing information daily for the 38 residents residing in the facility. A review of the facility's Daily Staffing Sheets from 02/11/24 through 03/11/24 revealed that the actual hours worked had not been completed on the daily staffing sheets. On 03/11/24 at 11:33 AM, an Administrative Nurse stated she was unaware that the actual hours worked were to be included on the daily staffing sheets. The facility's policy for Posting Direct Care Daily Staffing Numbers, revised in August 2022, required that the information recorded on the form include the actual time worked during the shift for each category and type of nursing staff. The facility failed to properly complete the daily staffing sheets for the residents of the facility.
