benchmarks for improvement, and time frames and parameters for monitoring and reassessment.

with a start and completed date of March 3, 2025.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of Resident 1's March 3, 2025, weight measure revealed it was 177.4 pounds, which confirmed his

confirmation, and care plans should be updated to reflect residents' weight loss and interventions.
