Based on a review of the State Board of Review hearing notice, staff interview, family interview, and a review of a Release of Medical Record form, the facility failed to ensure a resident or his / her legal representative had the right, upon an oral or written request, to access all records pertaining to his/her stay at the facility, including current clinical records, within twenty-four (24) hours (excluding weekends and holidays) of receipt of the request. This occurred for one (1) of eleven (11) residents included in the sample. Resident identifier: #162. Facility census: 150. Findings include: a) Resident #162 During a telephone interview on 11/01/10 at 7:30 p.m., Resident #162's legal representative reported the facility did not allow access to the resident's medical record for review prior to an appeal for discharge hearing with the State Board of Review at 1:00 p.m. on 09/27/10. The representative reported having called the facility on 09/23/10 or 09/24/10 and leaving a voice message for the assistant administrator, asking to review the information the facility was going to use in the hearing. She said she was not provided the information prior to the hearing. During an interview on 11/02/10 at 11:00 a.m., the assistant administrator reported the request was made on 09/24/10 (a Friday) and, at that time, the information was being gathered by the facility administrator for the hearing. He said the information was not available for review until the hearing at 1:00 p.m. on 09/27/10. Review of the hearing notice, dated 09/20/10, found a second page with a section titled, "You Have the Right To:" The first item under this title stated, "1. Examine all documents and manual sections to be used at the hearing, both before, during, and after the hearing. Please call the nursing home if you wish to look at the evidence before the hearing." The administrator, who was interviewed on 11/02/10 just after the assistant administrator, stated the resident's legal representative did not ask to review the resident's records until after the hearing on 09/27/10, and she produced a release signed by the resident's legal representative on that date. . | 2014-03-01 |
