8652 | GOLDEN LIVINGCENTER - RIVERSIDE | 515035 | 6500 MACCORKLE AVENUE SW | SAINT ALBANS | WV | 25177 | 2011-08-17 | 412 | D | 0 | 1 | 5VE911 | **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, medical record review, and staff interview, the facility failed to assure a follow-up visit for dental services was arranged as recommended after a resident received an emergency dental consult. This was true for one (1) of forty-seven (47) residents sampled in Stage II of the survey. Resident identifier: #1. Facility census: 89. Findings include: a) Resident #1 Observation of the resident, during Stage I of the survey, revealed the resident had teeth that were missing and broken. Medical record review of the resident's dental status revealed a nurses note, dated 03/10/11, stating the resident's physician had started the resident on [MEDICATION NAME] for ten (10) days for an infected tooth; the physician also ordered a dental consult. The director of nursing (DON) was interviewed on the morning of 08/10/11 and was asked about the status of the resident's dental condition. She stated the resident was sent out to a dentist for a consult, but she was unable to produce a copy of the dental consult scheduled for 03/15/11. On 08/10/11 at approximately 1:30 p.m., the DON provided a copy of the dental consult. The resident was seen by a dentist on 03/15/11 for an emergency dental consult. The DON further explained the nurse, who was on duty when the resident returned from the visit, reported the dentist did not want to extract the tooth, so the nurse presumed no follow-up services were needed. After reading the consult on 08/10/11, the DON stated she became aware the dentist wanted to perform a root canal. The DON stated the resident had not been scheduled for a return visit, as she thought the dentist was through with the resident after his initial visit on 03/15/11. | 2016-04-01 |
