The RAI requirements specify completion of the MDS within no more than 14 days after the ARD (12/16/13). Under section B of the MDS for hearing, speech and vision, resident #8 was coded as being usually understood. According to the 12/3/13 MDS, the resident was unable to be interviewed for mood and cognition because of his inability to communicate. During resident observation on 1/27/14, 1/28/14, 1/29/14 and 1/30/14, resident #8 was able to say one word, yeah, at times. Resident #8 was unable to speak any other words during multiple interview attempts throughout the survey.
