50	APPLE REHAB WATCH HILL	415015	79 WATCH HILL ROAD	WESTERLY	RI	2891	2017-10-05	161	C	0	1	0DHM11	Based on record review and staff interview, it has been determined that the facility failed to assure the security of all personal funds of residents deposited with the facility relative to purchasing a surety bond which adequately protects resident funds against loss. Findings are as follows: Record review revealed that the facility had a surety bond in the amount of $7500.00. Review of the bank statements for the resident trust account for the last three months (July-September (YEAR)) revealed that on 33 of 92 days, the balance of the resident funds account exceeded the $7500.00 covered by the surety bond. During an interview on 10/3/2017 at approximately 3:00 PM, the manager responsible for handling resident personal needs funds was unaware that the surety bond did not meet the requirement. You are hereby formally notified that where the above listed deficiencies also constitute non-compliance with applicable provisions of the 'Rules and Regulations for Licensing of Nursing Facilities' they are deficiencies under State Regulations and grounds for licensure sanctions.	2020-09-01
