F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to update a resident care plan as exacerbation of neurological symptoms began to occur. This failure affected 1 (R3) resident reviewed for care plan in the total sample of 5 residents. Findings include: On 05/05/2025 at 2:20pm, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated R3 was doing spastic movement of her upper extremities, flexion and extension. R3 never had this jerking movement before. It was as if she was trying to get out of her chair. It was just severe so we put her on 1:1 supervision. If you (staff) were with her, there is no spastic movement but as soon as you (staff) leave, R3 would have spastic movements of both her upper and lower extremities. I really think her cerebral palsy is exacerbating. There is a change on her baseline signs and symptoms. The exacerbation of R3's symptoms should be care planned. It is a problem that we need to focus on, we have to create a goal and add interventions. R3's careplan for cerebral palsy and spastic movement was not updated with new interventions. R3's careplan should be revised to include new interventions. I (V2) will update it today. R3's admission Record documented that R3's diagnoses (include but not limited to) cerebral palsy, metabolic encephalopathy, and reduced mobility.
