no.Review of the facility's Weight Monitoring policy revealed the facility would ensure all residents maintain
acceptable parameters of nutritional status, such as usual body weight or desirable body weight range and
electrolyte balance, unless the resident's clinical condition demonstrated that that was not possible or
resident preference indicate otherwise. A comprehensive nutritional assessment was completed upon
admission to identify those at risk for unplanned weight loss/gain or compromised nutritional status.
Information gathered from the nutritional assessment and current dietary standards of practice were used
to develop an individualized care plan to address the resident's specific nutritional needs, including the
resident's personal goals and preferences. Interventions were implemented, monitored and modified (as
appropriate), consistent with the resident's assessed needs, choices, preferences, goals and current
professional standards to maintain acceptable parameters of nutritional status. A weight monitoring
schedule was developed upon admission for all residents. Newly admitted residents' weight will be
monitored as close to weekly as possible for the initial 4 weeks and at least monthly thereafter. At the
direction of the practitioner in collaboration with the facility, weights may be monitored more frequently as
clinically indicated. Newly recorded weights were compared to the previous recorded weights. A significant
weight change is defined as:a. 5% change in one monthb. 7.5% change in three monthsc. 10% change in
six monthsSignificant changes in weight are reported to the practitioner.This deficiency represents
non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number 2649063.
