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 review, the facility failed to develop a colostomy (a surgical procedure that brings one
end of the large intestine out through the abdominal wall to allow waste to leave the body) care plan (a
document that outlines the facility ' s plan to provide personalized care to a resident based on the resident '
s needs) per facility policy, for one of four sampled residents (Resident 2).
These failures had the potential for Resident 2 to receive colostomy care that is not personalized to meet
the specific needs identified above, which could result in decreased quality of care and quality of life.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 2 ' s admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 2 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included colostomy status,
malignant neoplasm of colon and abscess (a collection of pus) of intestine.
During a review of Resident 2 ' s discharge Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated
3/17/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 2 has intact cognitive skills. The MDS indicated Resident 2 was
partial moderate assistance for toileting hygiene, bathing, lower body dressing and setup or clean-up
assistance (helper helps only prior to or following the activity completion) with eating, oral and personal
hygiene.
During a review of Resident 2 ' s Body/Skin Assessment, dated 3/26/2025, the Assessment indicated
Resident 2 had a colostomy site on the abdomen.
During a review of Resident 2 ' s Order Summary Report, dated 4/3/2025, the Order Summary Report
indicated an order for colostomy placement on 3/17/2025. The Order Summary Report also indicated a
treatment order to cleanse the colostomy site with normal saline (NS- a saltwater solution), pat dry and
apply colostomy bag every dayshift, ordered on 3/26/2025.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/3/2025 at 1:53PM with Treatment Nurse 1 (TN 1),
Resident 2 ' s medical chart dated from 3/25/2025 to 4/3/2025 was reviewed. Resident 2 ' s chart did not
indicate a care plan for Resident 2 ' s colostomy. TN 1 states there is no developed care plan to address
Resident 2 ' s colostomy and there should have been. TN 1 stated there should be a care plan so that staff
know what nursing interventions to provide including monitoring the stoma site for signs/symptoms of
infection, the treatments to provide and the need to monitor any pain during treatment and the goals of
care. TN 1 also stated a care plan was needed for staff to follow and know

how to provide care to the colostomy.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During an interview of 4/3/2025 at 3:54PM with Registered Nurse Supervisor (RNS), RNS stated care
plans are a way to individualize each resident ' s needs, any interventions and accommodations to the
resident needs and their goals. RNS stated care plans provide a way for staff to see the goals and needed
interventions for residents and that there should have been a care plan created for Resident 2 ' s
colostomy. RNS also stated Resident 2 needed a care plan because the colostomy needs interventions
such as monitoring for any signs and symptoms of draining, vital signs, stool consistency. RNS stated not
having a care plan could slow down his progress to healing and discharging home.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 2:43PM with the DON, the DON stated care plans are necessary for the
delivery of care to ensure everyone knows the resident ' s goals and care interventions. The DON stated
not having a care plan for the residents means there may be a lapse in the continuity of care being given
and the overall care and picture of the resident may not be accurate without a care plan.
During a review of the facility ' s Policy & Procedure (P&P) titled Care Plans, Comprehensive
Person-Centered, revised 12/2016, the P&P indicated the comprehensive, person-centered care plan:
> Includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial and
functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident.
> Describes the services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable
physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being, care plans are revised as information about the residents
and the residents' conditions change.
> Assessments of residents are ongoing, and care plans are revised as information about the residents
and the residents' conditions change.
> Include the Resident ' s stated goals upon admission and desired outcomes.
