Centennial Post Acute: Assessment Failures - AK

Healthcare Facility
Centennial Post Acute
Anchorage, AK  ·  1/5 stars

Inspectors completing a complaint survey on December 24, 2025 found the facility had been providing physical therapy only on weekdays. The Director of Rehabilitation told inspectors he believed a physician had been notified of the lapse at some point, but he was not aware of any corresponding changes to physician orders or care plans during the period the weekend services went missing.

The Regional Director of Clinical Nursing Services confirmed it directly: the facility did not update care plans or modify physician orders for residents who had been receiving PT services during the gap. She told inspectors the facility had since discussed plans to hold Interdisciplinary Team conferences to notify residents whenever services were interrupted in the future.

The Regional Director of Nursing said those discussions had happened during morning rounds. There was no documentation to back that up.

The facility's own assessment, updated just a month before the inspection in November 2025, described its rehabilitation services in confident terms, stating that rehab staff provide services "in a manner to meet the needs of the residents and the facility" and that the facility remains "proficient" with telehealth platforms to reach providers. The gap between that self-description and what inspectors found went unaddressed in the document.

CMS rated the harm level as minimal, with few residents affected. But the residents receiving physical therapy, typically people recovering from surgery, injury, or acute illness, had no way of knowing their prescribed treatment had quietly been cut for two days out of every seven. Their physicians had no documented reason to ask questions. Their care plans reflected a schedule that was no longer real.
