Complete data begins January 2011 (although some earlier inspections do show up). Individual states are provides as CSV files. A very large (4.5GB) national file is also provided as a zipped archive. New data will be updated on a monthly basis. For additional documentation, please see the README.

Based on observation, record review, staff and resident interviews for one (1) of 29 stage 2 sampled residents, it was determined that facility staff failed to accurately code the Minimum Data Set (MDS) for the use of corrective lenses under Section B (Hearing, Speech, and Vision) for Resident #144. The findings include: Facility staff failed to code the MDS for Resident #144's use of corrective lenses. A face-to-face interview with Resident #144 occurred on (MONTH) 20, (YEAR), in the resident's room at approximately 2:30 pm, in the presence of Employee #8. The resident was observed wearing eyeglasses. On (MONTH) 20, (YEAR), a medical record review revealed Minimum Data Set assessments dated (MONTH) 31, (YEAR), and (MONTH) 27, (YEAR). The assessments revealed the facility staff documented the numeral two (2) in Section B1000 (Ability to see in adequate light with glasses or other visual appliances). This coding indicates the resident has Moderately impaired-limited vision; not able to see newspaper headlines but can identify objects. Also, Section (B1200) Corrective Lenses (contacts, glasses or magnifying glass) was coded as 0 indicating the resident does not wear glasses. Further review of the Edit Note Section revealed documentation which indicated that Resident #144 has glasses on at all times when asked if they helped with reading the resident responded, no. The medical record lacked documented evidence that the MDS was code to accurately reflect the resident's condition. During a face-to-face discussion with Employee #10 on (MONTH) 20, (YEAR), Employee #10 acknowledged writing the information in the Edit Note section and completion of Section B1000 and B1200. |
