What these words mean3
- Star ratings
- CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System.
- Inspection (survey)
- A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
- Deficiency, citation, violation
- What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.

Dialysate Proportioning - Monitor Ph/Conductivity
The inspectors’ words, 276 words
“DIALYS PROPORT-MONITOR PH/CONDUCTIVITY CFR(s): 494.40(a) 5.6 Dialysate proportioning: monitor pH/conductivity It is necessary for the operator to follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding dialysate conductivity and to measure approximate pH with an independent method before starting the treatment of the next patient. This Standard is not met as evidenced by: 22676 Based on observation, interview, policy review, and review of the manufacturers direction for use, the facility failed to follow the manufacturer’s instructions to dispose after 30 days of an opened bottle of 14 mS (millisecond) Conductivity solution dated 04/28/24. This finding had the potential to cause harm to all 58 in-center hemodialysis patients receiving care at the facility by failure to identify abnormal conductivity reading of the dialysate. Findings include: During tour on the treatment floor on 07/02/24 at 9:30 AM, one bottle of 14 mS Conductivity solution was observed opened and dated 04/28/24. Review of the manufacturer’s instructions on the bottle indicated to discard 30 days after opening. During an interview on 07/02/24 at 9:30 AM, the Clinic Manager 2 and the Certified Clinical Hemodialysis Technician (CCHT) 4, confirmed the 14 mS Conductivity solution was opened on 04/28/24. CCHT 4 confirmed he/she used the Conductivity solution that morning for calibration of the Myron L D 6 meter. Review of the facility’s policy titled, “Myron L D6 Meter Maintenance procedures Checking Conductivity” dated 09/01/22 indicated to confirm that the conductivity and the pH of the Dialysate. (the Mesa Labs manufactures instructions were provided as an attachment). Review of “manufactures instruction” for Mesa Laboratories solution indicated, “Shelf life of opened bottle: 90 days from date of opening, and 14 mS solution ...30 days from date of opening.””

Pe - Equipment Maintenance - Manufacturer’S Dfu
The inspectors’ words, 242 words
“PE-EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE-MANUFACTURER’S DFU CFR(s): 494.60(b) The dialysis facility must implement and maintain a program to ensure that all equipment (including emergency equipment, dialysis machines and equipment, and the water treatment system) are maintained and operated in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. This Standard is not met as evidenced by: 22676 Based on observation, interview, and review of manufacturer’s instructions, the facility failed to ensure staff dated and initialed antimicrobial disinfectant after opening. These findings have the potential to negatively impact all 58 patients receiving care at the facility by using the disinfectant past the date of expiration after opening. Findings include: During a tour of the facility on 07/02/24 at 9:30 AM, the following was observed: a. One opened bottle of ExSept 3.5 ounce (oz) (a high-level disinfect) was found in the home training room. The container was not dated when opened. b. Two opened bottles of ExSept 3.5 oz were found on the counter in the treatment floor area. The container was not dated when opened. c. One opened bottle of Alcavis 50 16.9 oz solution (a high-level disinfectant) was found on the counter of the treatment unit and was not dated when opened. Review of the manufacturer’s instruction on both bottled of the ExSept and the Alcavis indicated, “ ...expire 6 months from the date of opening.” Interview on 07/02/24 at 9:30 AM, Clinic Manager 2 confirmed the above findings. He/she indicated the solution should have been dated when opened.”
