Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record the facility failed to review and revised the person-centered comprehensive care plan
for 1 (Resident #22) of 5 residents reviewed for comprehensive care plan revisions.The facility failed to
update Resident #22's care plan to reflect the status of Resident #22's NPO status. This failure could place
residents at risk of not receiving the appropriate care and interventions they need. Record review of
Resident #22's face sheet dated 2/26/2026 revealed a [AGE] year old male admitted to the facility originally
on 8/7/2024 and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Parkinson's Disease (a progressive
movement disorder of the nervous system that worsens over time), Dysphagia Oropharyngeal phase (the
inability to swallow food or drink), and Unspecified Dementia (a decline in cognitive function affecting
memory, thinking, behavior, and the ability to perform everyday activities).Record review of Resident #22's
Order Summary dated 2/26/2026 revealed a dietary order of a NPO diet with a start date of 2/18/2026.
Resident #22 had a current order of Jevity 1.5 ml at 69 ml per hour via a gastrostomy tube (a feeding tube
that goes through the skin of the belly into the stomach for feedings) stationary pump. Record review of
Resident #22's most recent comprehensive care plan obtained 2/25/2026 revealed that Resident #22 was
at risk for aspiration (when food, liquid, or other material accidentally gets into your windpipe and lungs)
and listed interventions that included monitoring oral intake and reporting to the MD as needed for signs
and symptoms of aspiration. Additionally, interventions included to encourage Resident #22's intake of
nutritional supplements between meals. Record review of a nursing progress note dated 2/17/2026
revealed that Resident #22 was readmitted to facility and was NPO. Interview with the MDS nurse on
2/25/2026 at 11:59 am revealed she was responsible for all resident care plans. The MDS nurse stated that
Resident #22's care plan did not accurately reflect the care needed that Resident #22 required. The MDS
nurse stated that the entire facility required new care plans due to the new software system and that it was
a heavy load. The MDS nurse stated that Resident #22's care plan did not reflect the recent change to NPO
that was given after Resident #22's most recent hospitalization. The MDS stated that the risk of not having
a care plan that reflected the current needs of the residents could lead to missed services and interventions
that could lead to a resident not receiving the appropriate care they need. Interview with ADON on
2/26/2026 at 9:15 am revealed that she was not responsible for care plans and stated the MDS nurse was
responsible for creating and updating care plans. Interview with the DON on 2/26/2026 at 1:01 pm revealed
that she did not know too much about care plans nor does she create or revise them. The DON stated the
MDS nurse was responsible for updating care plans to reflect any significant changes in the care of the
residents. Record review of the facility policy statement, undated, and titled Comprehensive Assessments
revealed in part. assessments are used to develop, review and revise the resident's comprehensive care
plan. The facility policy statement did not specifically address the revision of comprehensive care plans.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record review, the facility failed to document evidence of receiving or refusal of influenza or
pneumococcal immunization for 5 of 5 residents reviewed for immunizations (Resident#12, Resident #2,
Resident #39, Resident #7, and Resident #5). The facility failed to document evidence in the electronic
medical record the offering or the refusal of the influenza and pneumococcal immunization status for
Resident #12 and Resident #2. The facility failed to document evidence in the electronic medical record the
offering or the refusal of the pneumococcal immunization status for Resident #7, Resident #39, and
Resident #5. The failures could place residents at risk of contracting viral illness, influenza or pneumococcal
disease, or of not being informed of the benefits and risk which could cause respiratory complications and
lead to potential adverse health outcomes. Record review of Resident #12's face sheet dated 2/26/2026
revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted into the facility on 2/12/2026 with diagnoses that included
Unspecified Atrial Fibrillation (irregular heart beat), Type 2 diabetes mellitus (a condition where the body's
cells do not respond properly to insulin leading to high blood sugar levels), Hypertensive Heart Disease

2/26/2026 at 9:32 am revealed she was the infection preventionist for the facility and was responsible for
immunization compliance along with the DON. The ADON stated that a resident's immunization status
should be listed in the immunization tab of the electronic record but sometimes it was in the notes section.
The ADON stated that all residents were offered immunizations for influenza, pneumococcal, and covid on
admission. The ADON stated that the facility had an influenza vaccination event that ran from October 2025
to November 2025. The ADON stated that she was working on a pneumococcal vaccination event for the
residents. The ADON states the events were done because the facility didn't stock the influenza or
pneumococcal vaccines, but the facility could order the vaccines as needed. When asked if there was a
specific number that was needed to have a vaccination event occur, the ADON did not provide a number.
The ADON was asked to provide documentation of offering, administration or refusal of the influenza and
pneumococcal vaccines for Residents#12, Resident #7, Resident #39, Resident #2, and Resident# 5, but
stated she was unable to locate the information. The ADON stated the facility went through a change of
software in April of 2025 and resident data crossed over completely. When asked how she monitored
immunization compliance for the residents, the ADON did not have an answer. The ADON stated she knew
this was an area that needed attention. When asked what the risk was associated with not assessing
immunization compliance, the ADON stated the resident could be vaccinated twice for the same illness, the
residents could get sick with a preventable disease, or the resident could receive vaccinations that were
contraindicated. Interview with the DON on 2/26/2026 at 11:41 am revealed the DON stated there was a
facility wide influenza event in October and November of 2025. The DON stated that not all the influenza
immunization records had been uploaded into Point Click Care {PCC.} which is the facility's electronic
record software system. The DON stated that she was aware that some residents needed pneumococcal
vaccinations and there was a plan to get a mass vaccination event conducted at the facility. The DON
stated immunization documentation was an area that she was aware of that needed attention and was
working on getting immunizations uploaded and updated. The DON stated she was in the process of
getting a pneumococcal vaccination event scheduled. The DON stated that the facility began using a new
software program and it had affected how immunization dates and refusals were placed into the new
system. The DON stated the risk of not having up to date immunization records for residents could possibly
