In collaboration with The Seattle Times, Big Local News is providing full-text nursing home deficiencies from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). These files contain the full narrative details of each nursing home deficiency cited regulators. The files include deficiencies from Standard Surveys (routine inspections) and from Complaint Surveys. 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.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on electronic medical records review and interviews, the facility failed to ensure that a Minimum Data Set, version 3.0 (MDS)was accurately coded for restraints in 3 of 4 residents reviewed for restraints (Residents #70, #76 & #140). Findings: 1. Review of Resident #70's electronic charting revealed completion of a Side Rail/Restraint assessment dated [DATE] which noted Resident uses 1/4 rails for mobility assist, not considered a restraint. Resident #70's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], was inaccurately coded in Section P: Restraints to reflect the use of a restraint. 2. Observation of Resident #76's bed noted bilateral 1/4 rails. In an interview with the Nurse Manager, the Surveyor confirmed that the 1/4 rails are not a restraint. Resident #76's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], was inaccurately coded in Section P: Restraints to reflect the use of a restraint. 3. Review of Resident #240's electronic charting reveals completion of a Side Rail/Restraint assessment dated [DATE] which notes Resident uses 1/4 rails for mobility assist, not considered a restraint. Resident #140's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE], was inaccurately coded in Section P: Restraints to reflect the use of a restraint. On 12/6/18 between 9:00 a.m. and 9:30 a.m., the two MDS Coordinators, in an interview with the two Surveyors stated that there are no residents in house with a restraint nor are there residents who cannot get out of bed around their side rail. The Surveyors confirmed the findings at the time of the interview. |
