correspondence between FM 1 and AC 1 dated 8/12/2025 indicated AC 2 addressed FM 1's questions.During an interview on 8/22/2025 at 12:45 p.m. with FM 1, FM 1 stated, I did not receive the admission packet until July. I reviewed it and sent some questions I had to AC 2 at the time and AC 2 never got back to me. AC 1 just recently responded to those questions; however I asked an additional question, and it still has not been addressed.During an interview on 8/22/2025 at 12:57 p.m. with AC 2, AC 2 stated, I initially gave FM 1 the admission packet via e mail 2 days after Resident 1 was admitted , it wasn't received so I sent it to more times until FM 1 confirmed receipt. I am not sure if I offered to give FM 1 the admission packet in person, I know FM 1 was here daily with Resident 1. Once it was received, FM 1 sent it back with some highlighted questions, so I sent it to the Administrator at the time who is no longer here, and I don't know what happened after that.A review of the facility's P&P titled, admission Agreement revised 2/2025 indicated at the time of admission, the resident (or his/her representative) must sign an admission agreement (contract). The admission agreement (contract) reflects all charges for covered and non-covered items, as well as identifying the parties that are responsible for the payment of such services. Inquiries concerning the facility's admission agreement should be referred to the administrator and/or business office.
