6	VERNON GREEN NURSING HOME	475008	61 GREENWAY DRIVE	VERNON	VT	5354	2019-09-18	657	F	0	1	XBZR11	Based on staff interview and record review, the facility failed to provide evidence of the participation of all required Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) meeting members during care plan meetings, and for preparing comprehensive care plans for 15 of the 24 sampled residents. Residents #1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 13, 14, 22, 23, 24, 33, 39, 44, 45 and 50. Findings include: Record reviews conducted by the survey team during the re-certification survey between 9/16/19 and 9/18/19 failed to produce evidence that the IDT included all required members of the team, as required per Centers for Medicare Services (CMS), to participate in the comprehensive care plans of the above identified residents. Per interview with the Registered Nurse Unit Manager on A wing, on 09/18/19 at 11:12 AM, s/he did not think that the physician reviewed the care plans before the meetings and the physicians have not attended care plan meetings that s/he has attended. In an interview with the Director of Social Services (DSS) on 9/18/19 at 5:02 PM, s/he confirmed that there is no evidence that the physicians are part of the IDT. The DSS further stated that the physician will only attend a care plan meeting on occasion and only if something comes up as a concern that the physician needs to address, such as a discharge. The DSS confirmed at this time that the physician is not part of the IDT and they do not review the care plans and/or give input to the comprehensive care plan.	2020-09-01
