10569 HEARTLAND OF MARTINSBURG 515039 209 CLOVER STREET MARTINSBURG WV 25404 2009-10-29 154 D 0 1 0YSZ11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on resident interview, record review, and staff interview, the facility failed to fully inform one (1) of twenty (20) sampled residents, who had been determined by his physician to have the capacity to make his own healthcare decisions, of his rights as a resident, his healthcare status and the treatment interventions planned, and/or his discharge planning arrangements. Resident identifier: #62. Facility census: 114. Findings include: a) Resident #62 A review of the medical record revealed Resident #62 was a [AGE] year old male with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. He was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His attending physician determined he lacked the capacity to make his own informed healthcare decisions on 04/13/09, and assigned his niece as his health care surrogate (HCS). The social services note, written by the social worker (SW - Employee #80) on 09/29/09, recorded the resident's niece came to the facility on this date and stated that, for health reasons, she could no longer serve as the resident's HCS. She was advised the facility would seek a HCS from WV DHHR. There was also evidence that a 30-day notice of discharge had been mailed to the HCS on or about 09/24/09, although she reported to the SW she had not received it. On 10/06/09, the resident's attending physician determined the resident now demonstrated the capacity to make his own informed healthcare decisions. All social services notes, progress notes, and nurses' notes after that date were reviewed, but there was no evidence that the resident had his care plan (especially his discharge plan) or his rights explained to him. During the general tour at 3:30 p.m. on 10/19/09, this resident approached the surveyor and asked if there was any rule about the sharing of the television in his room; he also asked the surveyor to find out why he had not been discharged yet. At 11:20 a.m. on 10/20/09, the resident was interviewed about his healthcare status. He said he was sick a few months ago but was well now and ready to go home. He could not relate to the surveyor any healthcare instructions and said that his niece took care of everything. During an interview with the social worker (Employee #80) at 9:45 a.m. on 10/21/09, she acknowledged the resident had not "formally" been included in any care discussions since he had been declared to have capacity and that the niece had formally rescinded her agreement to act as HCS for the resident. There was no evidence in the record that the resident had been informed of his rights, his code status, or that the facility has issued a 30-day notice of discharge. . 2015-01-01
