On the days of the survey, based on interviews, the facility failed to assure the resident of the right to receive mail based on the currently available Postal delivery schedule. The facility had requested no mail delivery on Saturdays. The deficient practice had the potential to affect any resident who received mail in the facility. The findings included, Upon entrance to the facility, it was determined that the current facility Resident Council had no President per the choice of the resident's. Resident # 103 and Resident # 54 were designated by the facility as residents who regularly attended Resident Council Meetings and were appropriate to be interviewed. Based on the resident interview conducted on 3/18/14 at approximately 4 PM and 3/19 at approximately 10:15 AM, neither Resident was able to state if mail was delivered on Saturday. Resident # 103 stated his/her mail did not come to the facility at all and Resident # 54 was unsure. During an interview with the Activity Director (AD) immediately following the interview with Resident 103, the AD stated the Activity Department was responsible for the delivery of resident mail. The Activity Director stated no mail delivery occurred at the facility on Saturdays. Further interview with the facility Administrator on 3/19/14 at approximately 9:30 AM, revealed Saturday mail had not occurred at the facility since 2009 under the direction of previous Administration. The Saturday mail delivery had been discontinued by facility choice and not due to postal restrictions. The Administrator stated s/he had contacted the Postal services and would be no problem resuming Saturday mail delivery. |
