The ADM stated the purpose of the PASRR 1 was to identify Residents who required additional services. She stated if the PASRR 1 is positive, the PASRR 1 should be referred to the local mental health authority for completion of a PASRR 2 Evaluation. The ADM and DON stated the DON is responsible for entering the PASRR 1 into the system, and she would be responsible for ensuring they are accurate by comparing them to medical records. The ADM and the DON stated they were not aware a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder would require a positive PASRR 1. The DON stated the potential harm if a resident with a diagnosis of a mental illness had a negative PASRR 1, and no subsequent level PASRR 2 evaluation was, the residents could potentially go without services. The DON confirmed this and stated the Resident could miss out on necessary services. <BR/>Record review of facility policy, titled, Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) Policy <BR/>Revised July 2023:<BR/>The facility policy for PASARR states all applicants admitted to a Medicaid-certified nursing facility are evaluated for mental health prior to admissions and offered the most appropriate setting for their needs. If the PASARR level one screening indicated the individual may have an Intellectual Disability or a Mental Illness diagnosis the facility will confer with local mental health providers to complete a PASARR level two screening. Following the completion of the level two screening a care plan will be developed by the facility to meet the needs of a resident with an Intellectual Disability or a Mental Illness diagnosis.
