The facility must assist residents in accessing health care services and benefits to which they are entitled from outside providers. When benefits are no longer available, or if the resident is not eligible for benefits, the facility must provide or coordinate the required services, as defined in facility disclosure information, for residents whose health status is stable and predictable. (a) On-site Health Services. The facility must coordinate on-site health services with outside service providers such as hospice, home health, or other privately paid supplemental health care providers, etc. (A) The facility management or licensed nurse must be notified of the services provided by the outside provider to ensure that staff are informed of new interventions, and that the service plan is adjusted if necessary, and reporting protocols are in place. (B) The facility nurse must review the resident's health related service plan changes made as a result of the provision of on-site health services noted in section (2)(a)(A) of this rule. (C) The facility must have policies to ensure that outside service providers leave written information in the facility that addresses the on-site services being provided to the resident and any clinical information necessary for facility staff to provide supplemental care. (b) Off-site Health Services. The facility must coordinate off-site health services for residents who cannot or choose not to self-manage their health services. (A) The facility must assist the resident by coordinating appointments, with outside providers, that are necessary to support the resident's health needs. (B) Transportation for medical purposes must be arranged or provided for by the facility. (C) Following a resident's visit to an outside medical provider, if information is obtained from said provider, it must be included in the resident's record. Adjustments to the resident's services and service plan must be made as applicable. (D) The facility must provide relevant information to the off-site provider and must have a protocol to facilitate the receipt of information from the provider. (c) The facility is exempt from the coordination of outside health services for residents who are capable and choose to independently arrange and manage their health care needs. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure staff were informed of new interventions recommended by outside providers and the service plan was adjusted, if necessary, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 1) who received home health services. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 2 moved into the MCC in 07/2025 with diagnoses including mild dementia and congestive heart failure. During the acuity interview on 04/06/26 at 1:45 pm, Resident 2 was identified to have a pressure ulcer and a foley catheter and as receiving home health services. The resident's clinical record, from 01/06/26 through 04/06/26, was reviewed, and staff were interviewed. The following was identified: Resident 2 was receiving home health services due to having a pressure wound and foley catheter. The following transcriptions of the outside provider’s recommendations were identified in the residents’ progress notes: * 01/08/26: New wound care orders, drink Ensure three to four times daily, and offload at all times; * 01/20/26 and 01/30/26: Encourage the resident to lay in bed to relieve pressure to wounds; * 01/29/26: Absolutely no shearing forces or sliding of any sort, lift and transfer resident; * 02/06/26: Encourage the resident to elevate lower extremities when able; * 02/18/26: Monitor temperature to ensure it comes down, keep wound covered, when left open in brief with incontinence, it increases risk of infection; and *02/20/26: Keep dressing intact and not get wet, provide bed baths to maintain the dressing dry. Documentation revealed staff reviewed the above recommendations; however, there was no documented evidence direct care staff were informed of the recommendations or that the service plan was adjusted. In an interview on 04/08/26 at 9:08 am, Staff 3 (LPN) confirmed the interventions recommended by the outside provider were not communicated to staff, and the service plan was not updated. The need to ensure staff were informed of new interventions and the service plan was adjusted as necessary after receiving outside provider services were provided recommendations was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) on 04/09/26 at 1:45 pm. He acknowledged the findings.
