Re-Inspection
Deficiencies: 2
Date: Jun 27, 2019
Visit Reason

Findings
The facility was found deficient in ensuring accurate Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments, specifically misreporting a diagnosis of Schizophrenia for one resident without medical record support. Additionally, infection control practices were inadequate as a housekeeper failed to wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and used the same mop for rooms with and without contact precautions, risking transmission of Acinetobacter Baumannii.

Failure to ensure the Minimum Data Set (MDS) accurately reflected the resident's status, with incorrect documentation of Schizophrenia diagnosis for Resident #212.
Failure to provide and implement an infection prevention and control program, evidenced by a housekeeper not wearing proper PPE and using the same mop for contact precaution and non-contact precaution rooms.
