674 THE MILLENNIUM INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCE NURSING CARE 405028 CALLE COSME REPARTO SAN LUCAS SECTOR CANEJAS RIO PIEDRAS PR 926 2013-08-30 249 C     ET9L11 Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide an activities program which was directed by a qualified professional. The failure to provide this program had the potential to affect all residents of the facility. Findings: Observation during all five days of the survey, 8/26 - 8/30/13, revealed only one recreational/therapeutic activity per day was provided. Residents were not invited to the activity and observation revealed that the activity provided by the Occupational Therapy (OT) student was not the activity scheduled on the facility calendar. Interview with the Occupational Therapist on 8/27/13 at 1:30pm revealed that although she was assisting with completing activity assessments and care plans, this was not her primary function and it could not always be completed on time. (Refer to F248.) Interview on 8/27/13 at 9:40am with the Minimum Data Set (MDS) Coordinator (through a Spanish-speaking interpreter) revealed that the facility did not currently have any recreational /therapeutic activity staff. The MDS Coordinator revealed that the previous staff person had resigned approximately two weeks earlier and had not yet been replaced. She stated that in the interim (while the facility was in the process of hiring a new Activity Director), the facility was using Occupational Therapy staff to offer activities. Further interview confirmed that the facility was only offering one activity per day (at 12:30pm) due to the lack of a qualified activity professional, as the OT staff had their own duties to perform the rest of the day. 2014-03-01
