8620 WAR MEMORIAL HOSP, D/P 5.1e+151 1 HEALTHY WAY BERKELEY SPRINGS WV 25411 2012-12-07 272 D 0 1 L97I11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, staff interview, and family interview, the facility failed to ensure the accuracy of the minimum data set (MDS) for one (1) of three (3) residents reviewed in the area of vision during stage 2 of the survey. Resident identifier: Resident #7. Facility census: 16. Findings include: a) Resident #7 Review of the medical record, on 12/05/12, identified the resident had a history of [REDACTED]. The Care Area Assessment (CAA) tool dated 06/18/08 noted the inability of the assessor to assess vision because the resident was unable to follow one-step commands. The current CAA dated 06/19/12 identified the resident wore glasses at one time. Review of the annual MDS, dated [DATE] and the quarterly MDS, dated [DATE], under section B1000, vision, found an entry code of 2, which indicated: impaired - sees large print, but not regular print in newspapers/books. An interview with the resident's daughter, on 12/04/12 at 4:00 p.m., confirmed the resident had a history of [REDACTED]. During an interview, on 12/05/12 at 8:46 a.m., with the MDS Registered Nurse (RN) Employee #2, she acknowledged she was unaware how to code the vision assessment on the MDS for a resident that was unable to communicate. The MDS guidelines indicate if the resident is unable to communicate, section B1000 should be coded #3, not #2. . 2016-05-01
