60 The survey team will interview three (3) family members in each facility during Stage 1 of the survey process. This interview will be conducted with a person (family, friend or guardian) who knows the resident well and visits the facility often enough to provide information about service provided. Adjust the questions and probes as necessary to make them applicable to this resident and the individual being interviewed. If an interviewee is not appropriate for an interview or two attempts to reach the family member/friend have been unsuccessful, select another sample resident from the sample of non-interviewable Census Sample residents. Do not move outside the Census Sample. Exhaust all possible sample residents form the sample of non-interviewable Census Sample residents either by onsite contact or telephone. Select family members of residents from various units in the facility when possible. Instructions: Introduce yourself, explain the survey process, and the purpose of the interview using the following concepts. It is not necessary to use the exact wording. At all times, be cognizant of resident confidentiality. [Name of facility] is inspected by a team from the [Name of State Survey Agency] periodically to assure that residents receive quality care. While we are here, we make observations, review the nursing home s records, and talk to residents and family members or friends who can help us understand what it s like to live in this nursing home. We appreciate your taking the time to talk with us. We ask these questions because we want to know about [resident s name] prior lifestyle and discuss with you whether her/his past preferences are still applicable and if the facility accommodates them. We want to know about your opportunity for involvement in decisions about [resident s name] care and schedule. We also want to know your views on services she/he receives here, and in general, what you think of the facility. The following questions are asked to determine the family member s awareness and satisfaction with certain aspects of facility life and care for the resident. The surveyor should probe more deeply, using the suggested probes, whenever there is a negative response to determine the exact nature of the concern. FH52a - Developed by Polaris Group Page 59 of 91
61 Screening Questions The questioning below screens the interviewee to see if she/he knows the resident well enough to complete the rest of the interview. Based on answers to question 1, decide whether you can complete the interview, can complete it partially if the family member knows about some areas of the resident s care, or should conclude the interview. If you find that the family member has little or no knowledge of the resident s past history, you may want to discontinue the interview. However, if he/she visits the facility frequently, his/her answers may give information about the current care of the resident. Ask about the nature and extent of the relationship between the interviewee and resident both prior to and during nursing home residence: a. With whom did your relative/friend live before coming to the nursing home? If the resident did not live with you, how often did you see her/him? b. Are you familiar with her/his preferences and daily routines when she/he was more independent and more able to make choices and express preferences? (If the resident has had a lifelong disability, ask about choices and preferences prior to moving to this facility. Adapt additional questions as necessary.) If No, conclude interview. c. How often do you visit the resident now? When do you visit (time of day, day of the week)? If you decide you must conclude this interview because the interviewee has little or no knowledge of the resident or only visits occasionally, ask a general question that lets the family member say what he/she wishes about the facility such as: Is there anything you would like to tell me about this facility and how your relative is treated? Record any pertinent information in the comments section. Comments: FH52a - Developed by Polaris Group Page 60 of 91
