56	WEISER CARE OF CASCADIA	135010	331 EAST PARK STREET	WEISER	ID	83672	2016-10-21	159	E	0	1	224111	Based on resident and staff interview and review of the Resident Trust Fund Account, it was determined the facility failed to ensure quarterly trust account statements were provided to residents and/or their responsible parties. This was true for the 13 of 13 residents who had trust accounts, including 3 of 3 residents who participated in the resident group interview and had trust accounts. This created the potential for harm if residents and/or their responsible parties were unable monitor their trust fund accounts. Findings include: The Resident Trust Fund Account, reviewed on 10/20/16 at 12:27 pm, did not include documented evidence quarterly account statements were provided to 13 residents and/or their responsible parties, to make them aware of the balances and transactions in their trust accounts. During a resident group interview conducted on 10/18/16 at 11:00 am, 3 residents who had trust accounts reported not receiving quarterly statements to inform them or their responsible parties of balances or transactions. During an interview with the Business Office Manager on 10/20/16 at 12:27 pm, she reported 13 residents authorized the facility to manage their trust accounts. She confirmed she did not provide quarterly statements to the residents or their responsible parties, and added she sent out a monthly billing statement. She further stated she had not thought of sending out quarterly trust account statements because a monthly bill was provided, although the billing statement did not include information about the trust account activity, balance or transactions.	2020-09-01
