Waters of Batesville: Care Plan Deficiencies - IN
The complaint investigation on January 30 focused on the facility's one-on-one supervision guidelines, which administrators provided to inspectors that morning. The policy, dated May 17, 2023, outlined specific requirements for residents who had "decompensated mentally and/or physically."
According to the facility's written guidelines, one-on-one supervision "provides additional supervision and guidance to the resident at times when the resident may have decompensated mentally and/or physically." The policy emphasized "proactive intervention promoting enhanced physical and psychosocial well-being."
The guidelines required that "a staff member will be assigned to remain in direct supervision of the resident during the time that the one to one supervision is utilized." Most critically, the policy mandated that "one to one supervision at a minimum involves that the resident remain in direct visual surveillance at all time."
Waters of Batesville acknowledged in its own policy that standard approaches like "redirection and counseling" sometimes fail, necessitating the heightened supervision protocol.
The inspection report indicates the facility failed to follow these self-imposed requirements, though specific details of the violations were not included in the available documentation. The citation carried a designation of "minimal harm or potential for actual harm" affecting few residents.
The violation relates to federal regulations governing resident care and services. Inspectors classified the deficiency under standards requiring facilities to ensure residents receive proper care and maintain their highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being.
Waters of Batesville's policy recognized that some residents require enhanced monitoring when their condition deteriorates, but the facility apparently failed to provide the "direct visual surveillance at all time" that its own guidelines demanded.
