5073 MORGANTOWN HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER 515049 1379 VAN VOORHIS RD MORGANTOWN WV 26505 2015-09-14 278 B 0 1 HR8011 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on staff interview and record review the facility failed to complete an assessment to accurately reflect the resident's status. Resident #77 had experienced a significant weight loss. This weight loss was incorrectly assessed on three (3) of three (3) Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments. Resident identifier: #77. Facility census: 88. Findings include: a) Resident #77 A medical record review for Resident #77, on 09/14/15 at 12:00 p.m., revealed Resident #77 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses, including [MEDICAL CONDITION] end of right tibia, dislocation of unspecified ankle joint, gastro-[MEDICAL CONDITION] reflux disease without esophagitis, and periapical (encompassing or surrounding the tip of the root of a tooth) abscess without sinus. Her admission weight on 05/29/15 was 238.8 pounds using a mechanical lift. Her weight on 06/10/15 was 221.6 pounds, and this weight was used on the 14-day Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 06/12/15. However, the assessment question at item (K0300) Loss of 5% or more in the last month or loss of 10% or more in last 6 months was answered 0. No or unknown. The general progress note completed by the Dietary Manager #12, on 06/12/15, the same day she completed the MDS stated, Resident has had a 7% wt. (weight) loss since admission. The registered dietician confirmed this in her 06/19/15 note which stated Review for wt (weight) loss: Resident has experienced a 7.2% wt decline The next MDS completed was a 30-day assessment dated with ARD of 06/26/15. The most current weight used for this assessment is still the 221.6 weight from 06/10/15. Again, the question K0300 Loss of 5% or more in the last month or loss of 10% or more in last 6 months was answered 0. No or unknown. A 60 day MDS assessment was completed with an ARD of 07/24/15 and the most recent weight of 213, obtained 07/15/15, was used. Again, the question at item (K0300) Loss of 5% or more in the last month or loss of 10% or more in the last 6 months was answered 0. No or unknown. This weight of 213 was documented by the Dietary Manager #12 as a 10.8% weight loss x 3 months in her 9/18/15 progress note. The registered dietician documented on 08/25/15 in her general note Resident has experienced a 10.8% wt decline The appropriate weights were used when completing the MDS.

This matter was discussed with the administrator and director of nursing 09/14/15 at 12:30 p.m. They acknowledged the pattern of errors for this resident. The dietary manager was not available for an interview. 2019-03-01
