**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** > Based on observation and staff interview, it was revealed that the facility failed to post notice of the availability of state survey results in prominent places in the facility. Findings include: During a group interview with members of the resident council on 7/23/19 at 10:10 a.m., it was revealed that few members of the resident council knew of the whereabouts of the state survey results and how they could access them. One resident said he believed they were to be found in the lobby area, but could not be sure of the exact location. An observation on 7/23/19 at 12:30 p.m. of the lobby area of the facility accompanied by the Regional Nurse Consultant, revealed a cherry wood cabinet attached to the wall at the left of the main entrance. A green sign attached to the closed door of the cabinet read: Please drop kudo cards here; please deposit payments here; please place [MEDICATION NAME] contact cards here. Inside the cabinet, once the doors were opened, was a binder labeled: Results of Past 3 Surveys; (MONTH) 27, (YEAR), (MONTH) 30, (YEAR), (MONTH) 12, (YEAR). During an interview with the Regional Nurse Consultant at the time of this observation, she revealed that the residents are supposed to be educated on the availability of the survey results and where to find them. She agreed that there was no indication in the area as to where the survey results were kept and that visitors/families/residents would not necessarily know the results were available in the cabinet when the door was closed. An observation of the lobby area on 7/23/19 at 4:29 p.m. revealed a new sign had been placed on the closed door of the cabinet containing the survey results. The new sign stated: Survey Results. During an interview on 7/24/19 at 2:57 p.m. with the Activity Director (AD) it was revealed that she usually educates the residents and family members after surveys that state survey results are available, and that they are entitled to see new results after they are received. The AD said the survey results were also once available in a book in the sitting area on the second floor and she often directed families and visitors to those results. However, she was not sure if the results were still displayed in that area. Observation on 7/24/19 at 3:12 p.m. of the sitting area accompanied by the AD revealed that the survey results were not displayed anywhere in that area. |
