Comments:
On 9/24/2019 one inspector conducted a renewal study (9:05am to 7pm). 34 residents were in care. Six resident records were fully reviewed and three staff records were fully reviewed, and other records were partially reviewed. All new staff records were reviewed for background checks. A physical plant tour was done. A medication pass was observed and the medication carts were checked. Staff, resident, and family interviews were conducted.

The LI and management staff had a discussion regarding double checking public pay uniform assessment instruments (UAI) for accuracy, and what to do if one is discovered to have inaccurate assessments. When a resident consistently refuses a medication, consider asking the prescriber to discontinue it, or change it to PRN (as needed).
