Develop and implement policies and procedures to ensure (1) employees report any suspicion of a crime against any resident, according to timelines; (2) post the notice of employee rights; and (3) prohibit and prevent retaliation for reporting.
Immediate jeopardy means the deficiency caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident. CMS treats these as the most serious findings.
CMS uses a scope/severity grid (A through L). Letters A-F indicate no actual harm, G-I indicate actual harm, and J-L indicate immediate jeopardy. Scope (isolated, pattern, widespread) is encoded in the same letter.
