The DON stated the importance of an Apixaban care plan was to monitor side effect of bleeding and to notify the physician. A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Comprehensive Plan of Care, dated 12/2016 indicated the comprehensive care plan must describe services that are provided to the resident to attain or maintain the resident ' s highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being that will accommodate resident needs, request and refusal to treatment.
