6972 SGMC LAKELAND VILLA 115707 138 WEST THIGPEN AVE LAKELAND GA 31635 2013-02-14 278 D 0 1 YKS711 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to accurately code the section on vision impairment on a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for one resident (#46) in a total sample of 29 residents. Findings include: Review of the 8/09/12 vision consultation report revealed that the physician had diagnosed resident #46 as having moderate to severe [MEDICAL CONDITION] that required removal as soon as possible, and mild [MEDICATION NAME] degeneration. However, a review of the 9/15/12 annual MDS assessment revealed that licensed staff had inaccurately coded the resident as having had no visual impairment. Review of the 10/11/12 consultation report revealed that the physician diagnosed the resident with visually significant [MEDICAL CONDITION]. However, a review of the 11/28/122 quarterly MDS assessment revealed that licensed staff had inaccurately coded the resident with no visual impairment. During an interview on 2/13/13 at 12:25 p.m., the MDS Coordinator and Director of Nurses (DON) said that they were not aware that the resident had had a vision consultation and that vision problems had been diagnosed . However, the annual and the quarterly assessments should have identified the resident as having had a vision impairment. The MDS Coordinator admitted that her assessment of a resident's vision was based on whether or not the resident could see the television. However that process did not follow the guidelines in the MDS manual for the assessment of residents' vision. 2017-09-01
