Comments:
On 10/28/2019 one inspector, supervised by the Licensing Administrator, conducted a monitoring visit (8:15am to 11:40pm) for a facility that was recently licensed. 21 residents were in care. Six resident records and three staff records were fully reviewed, and an additional resident record was partially reviewed. All new staff records were reviewed for background checks. A medication pass was observed, the medication cart was checked, and staff and residents were interviewed. A physical plant tour was done.

During the inspection and at the exit interview, the facility was given the opportunity to discuss the violations and to show that they were in compliance. Please complete the plan of correction and date to be corrected for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to your licensing inspector within 10 calendar days from today. You will need to specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Just writing the word ?corrected? is not acceptable. Your plan of correction must contain the following: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s); 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventive measure(s). If you have any questions, please contact your licensing inspector at 540-309-3043.

Standard #: 22VAC40-73-320-A
Description: Based on review of resident record, the facility failed to ensure the physical examination and report for a resident contained all required information.

1. The history and physical for resident 5, admitted on 09/10/2019, did not include the resident?s medications. The physician documented ?see snapshot list?; however, there was no attached list.

Plan of Correction: 1. Steps to correct the non-compliance: The ?snapshot list? of medications prescribed for resident 5 was filed under the physician?s orders section of the resident?s record. It was removed from this section and filed with the physical examination and report for this resident during the inspection once pointed out by the inspection team.

2. Measures to prevent reoccurrence: In the future, if a physician includes an attached list for the medications, the attached list will remain with the physical examination and report once filed in the resident?s record.
