Findings include: Review of R15's admission and most recent quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments dated 11/24/08 and 8/14/09 respectively indicated that the resident was cognitively intact and independent in daily decision making. Review of R15 ' s records revealed care plan meetings were held on 3/3/09, 6/8/09, and 9/2/09 and that both the resident and the primary contact, R15 ' s daughter were notified of the meetings. An interview with R15 on 9/3/09 at 3:45 PM revealed that she does not recall being notified or invited to an Interdisciplinary Care Plan (ICP) . Review of the facility's Care Plan and Assessment policy indicated that the facility will notify the resident and primary contact prior to the ICP meetings, encourage them to attend, and solicit their input. Additionally, the policy indicated that the primary contact will be invited with the customer's permission. Although facility records documented that both the resident and the primary contact were invited to the above ICP meetings, this documentation conflicted with what was actually completed. Additionally, the records lacked evidence that the facility obtained the resident's permission prior to inviting the primary contact to the ICP meetings.

Findings include: On 8/14/09 at 10:10 AM, SSR31 was observed asking staff to use a phone. E22 (CNA), brought the resident to the Hammond wing nurse's station to use the phone. While E22 was helping SSR31 dial the phone, the resident was interrupted three times by incoming calls before he was able to place the call. When asked if there was a private place for a resident to make a call, E22 stated that the nurse's station was the only place that she knew for a resident to use the phone. E23 (Unit Clerk) agreed that the nurse's station was not a private place to make a phone call. In an interview with E12 (nurse), she stated that residents sometimes used phones in staff offices and that there was also a phone in the B-wing dining room that was available for resident use. Interview with Human Resource staff, E24 and E18 revealed that they were unsure of where residents could make private phone calls besides staff offices, but they would try to find out. During an interview with E14 (nurse) on 8/14/09, she stated that residents can make phone calls using the phone in the B-wing dining room or in the unit manager's office. Interview with SSR32, who was alert and oriented on 8/14/09, revealed that the only places that he knew that residents could make phone calls was the B-wing dining room or at nurses stations. During an interview with E25 ( Corporate Nurse) and E26 (General Manager) on 8/14/09, they revealed a cell phone that was kept in the administrator's office which was for residents' use. They confirmed that facility staff were unaware of the existence of the cell phone and stated that they would make them aware of its availability to the residents. 2014-04-01
