16 LAURELHURST VILLAGE 385010 3060 SE STARK STREET PORTLAND OR 97214 2017-09-11 272 D 0 1 8N9P11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to comprehensively assess dental status for 1 of 2 sampled residents (#181) reviewed for dental status. This placed residents at risk for unmet needs. Findings include: Resident 181 admitted to the facility in 8/2017 with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Resident 181's Admission Nursing Data Base form dated 8/10/17 was completed by Staff 15 (RN/Admissions Nurse). Staff 15 identified Resident 181 as having both No natural teeth or tooth fragment(s) (edentulous) and Natural teeth. No dentures were documented. Resident 181's Admission MDS, dated [DATE], was completed by Staff 16 (RN/MDS Coordinator) and identified the resident as edentulous (having no natural teeth or tooth fragments). The corresponding Dental Care CAA described the resident as having no natural teeth on admission and had a full set of dentures with no concerns. On 9/7/17 at 2:52 pm, Resident 181 reported she/he had her/his own natural teeth, but had one broken tooth. Resident 181 was observed to have all natural teeth, but one broken upper front tooth with tooth fragments present. Resident 181 denied any pain or discomfort. On 9/11/17 at 9:36 am, Staff 14 (RN) reported Resident 181 had her/his own teeth, but one broken tooth in the front. She stated Resident 181 never complained of pain or discomfort. On 9/11/17 at 11:38 am, Staff 16 (RN/MDS Coordinator) confirmed she assisted the facility in completing MDS assessments, but did not come to the facility in person. She worked remotely and would gather information from the resident's records to complete the MDS and CAAs. She would call the facility if there were any questions. She stated Staff 12 (MDS Coordinator) reported the resident had no teeth and had dentures. On 9/11/17 at 11:46 am, Staff 2 (DNS) reported Staff 12 was an interim MDS coordinator, but no longer worked at this facility. Staff 2 verified the Dental Care CAA did not match the resident and Resident 181's dental status was therefore not comprehensively assessed. 2020-09-01
