5229	HARPER MILLS	515086	100 HEARTLAND DRIVE	BECKLEY	WV	25801	2015-07-23	156	B	0	1	76WG11	Based on observation, staff interview, and resident interview, the facility failed to ensure each resident had access to information regarding how to apply for and use Medicare and Medicaid benefits, or how to contact the State Ombudsman. The facility did not prominently display the written information regarding these benefits or the Ombudsman contact information. This had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. Facility census: 160 Findings include: a) On 07/22/15 at 1:35 p.m., during an observation of the facility, it was discovered there was no written information posted in the facility to inform residents or responsible parties about how to apply for and use Medicare and Medicaid benefits. This posting is required to fulfill the facility's obligation to adequately inform residents of their benefits. An interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on 07/22/15 at 3:07 p.m., revealed she was unable to locate any information posted to inform residents on how to apply for and use Medicare and Medicaid benefits. b) Ombudsman Information On 07/20/15 at 1:00 p.m., during an interview with the resident council president, the president did not know if the facility had the Ombudsman contact information posted. At 1:20 p.m. on 07/20/15, Director of Nursing #205 and Assistant Administrator #235 toured the facility and confirmed the facility did not have the Ombudsman contact information posted.	2019-02-01
