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.

Staff # & Ratio Meet Patient Needs
The inspectors’ words, 514 words
“GOV-STAFF # & RATIO MEET PT NEEDS CFR(s): 494.180(b)(1) The governing body or designated person responsible must ensure that- (1) An adequate number of qualified personnel are present whenever patients are undergoing dialysis so that the patient/staff ratio is appropriate to the level of dialysis care given and meets the needs of patients; This Standard is not met as evidenced by: 28421 Based on review of documentation and interview, it was determined that the governing body did not ensure that an adequate number of qualified personnel were present to dialyze its patients on February 13, 2023. Findings were: Facility policy entitled “Patient Rights and Responsibilities” stated in part “We will treat all with dignity, compassion, and respect for personal values, including spiritual beliefs .... Patients have the responsibility to show respect at all times for our staff, other patients and visitors.” Facility policy entitled “Addressing Patient Grievances: DaVita Teammates” stated in part * “Complaints/Grievances should be documented on the Patient Grievance Log. * All details of patient grievances and discussions will be documented. This documentation will be maintained in a separate file and kept in a secure and locked location. * The DaVita teammate receiving the grievance should report the grievance to the Charge Nurse. Grievances submitted to Guest Services will be communicated to the Facility Administrator and the Regional Operations Director within 1 business day for follow up. * The Charge Nurse will discuss the grievance with the patient and take appropriate action towards a solution, if possible. * If the patient grievance cannot be resolved by the Charge Nurse, the FA will be notified. The FA will discuss the grievance with the patient and take appropriate action towards a solution, if possible. This discussion should occur within 10 days of receipt of the grievance. * If the patient grievance cannot be resolved by the FA, the Regional Operations Director and Medical Director will be notified. The patient will be invited to participate in a formal Grievance Meeting attended by the FA, SW, Medical Director (IDT) and the ROD. The patient’s nephrologist may also be asked to participate. This discussion should occur within 10 days of the receipt of the grievance. * The Regional Operations Manager and/or Medical Director will discuss the grievance with the patient and take appropriate action towards a solution, if possible. Record of the meeting should be documented during the meeting. You may use the Grievance Meeting Report document for this purpose.” Hospitalization and Treatment Behaviors Log was reviewed for the month of February 2023. It revealed that on February 13, 2023, 7 patients on the first shift missed treatment and 6 patients had their treatment times shortened throughout the day. On February 13, 2023 two RN Charge Nurses called in. The patients that had arrived for the 1st shift (5am) were told that there were no nurses and that they could not wait in the lobby. 7 of 16 patients opted to leave without their scheduled dialysis treatments. 6 patients had their treatment time shortened throughout the day. This was confirmed with the Group Facility Administrator on 12/5/23.”
