**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to develop a discharge care plan for one of three sampled
residents (Resident 1).As a result, this deficient practice placed Resident 1 at risk for an unsafe or
uncoordinated discharge, unmet care needs, and delays in services during any transition out of the
facility.Findings:A review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated, Resident 1 was re-admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included history of Cerebrovascular Disease (conditions that affect
blood flow to the brain).A record review of Resident 1's minimum data set (MDS - a federally mandated
resident assessment tool) dated 9/5/25 indicated, a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS- developed by
reviewing the resident's status during the prior seven-day period) score of two points out of 15 possible
points which indicated Resident 1 had severe cognitive (pertaining to memory, judgement and reasoning
ability) deficits. On 12/2/25 at 12:30 P.M., an interview and record review was conducted with the Social
Service Designee (SSD). The SSD stated they had planned on Resident 1 to discharge to a sister facility
(same company of facility) that was out of state in Arizona before finding out Resident 1's family member
contact information. The SSD stated she had reached out to Resident 1's primary care physician (PCP) on
11/7/25 who had Resident 1's family member (FM) current contact information, and spoke to Resident 1's
FM who stated he wanted Resident 1 to move closer to him in El Centro, California and not Arizona. The
SSD stated the interdisciplinary team (IDT: nurses, doctors, therapists, social workers, nutrition and other
staff involved who work together to create one cohesive plan for a resident's care) had a care conference
for Resident 1 on 11/6/25 but was unable to find a current and/or revised discharge care plan. The SSD
stated it should have been developed after Resident 1's re-admission [DATE]) to the facility.On 12/2/25 at
12:51 P.M., an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated her
expectations were, discharge planning and discharge care plans must be initiated and updated timely so all
staff understand the resident's goals and needs starting from admission. The DON stated discharge care
planning should be personalized to each resident and coordinated with the IDT and discussed with the
resident and/or representative to ensure it reflected their goals and supports a safe discharge from the
facility. The DON further stated that discharge care plans must be continuously updated based on the
resident's level of care, condition changes, significant events, quarterly reviews and revised as needed. The
DON acknowledged that timely discharge planning was essential to prevent delays, ensure resident safety,
and support a coordinated transition out of the facility. A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled,
Care Planning-Interdisciplinary Team dated March 2022, indicated .Comprehensive, person-centered care
plans are based on resident assessments and developed by an interdisciplinary (IDT) .

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to update and revise a person-centered discharge care plan
for one of three sampled residents (Resident 3) that reflected their discharge needs, preferences, and
goals.As a result, this deficient practice placed Resident 3 at risk for an unsafe or uncoordinated discharge,
unmet needs during transition, and delays in needed services.Findings:A review of Resident 3's admission
Record indicated Resident 3 was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included history
of Diabetes Mellitus (DM-a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound
healing).A record review of Resident 3's minimum data set (MDS - a federally mandated resident
assessment tool) dated 11/12/25 indicated, a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS- developed by
reviewing the resident's status during the prior seven-day period) score of 15 points out of 15 possible
points which indicated Resident 3 had no cognitive (pertaining to memory, judgement and reasoning ability)
deficits. On 12/2/25 at 11:45 A.M., a record review was conducted on Resident 3's clinical chart. Resident
3's discharge care plan initiated 8/12/25 was not revised as Resident 3's condition and planning needs
changed. There was no documentation to Resident 3's discharge care plan showing:- Revised and/or
updated discharge goals since baseline care plan was initiated on 8/12/25. - Revised and/or updated
interventions for a safe transition since baseline care plan was initiated on 8/12/25.- No interdisciplinary
team (IDT: healthcare professionals [i.e. physician, nurses, social services, nutrition and rehabilitation staff]
and support staff who work together to create and coordinate a person's care plan) review was completed
for discharge planning on scheduled care conference on 11/7/25.On 12/2/25 at 11:50 A.M., an interview
and record review was conducted with the Social Service Designee (SSD). The SSD stated Resident 3's
discharge care plan was not person-centered and should have been updated completion of the
comprehensive care plan (21 days of re-admission) and continuously to keep current. The SSD stated she
only spoke to Resident 3's family member on the phone on 11/7/25 without an IDT or Resident 3 present
and stated, the discharge care plan was not revised and/or updated to reflect Resident 3's current
discharge needs and goals. The SSD stated Resident 3's discharge care plan should have been reviewed
by the IDT and updated on 11/7/25 but was not. The SSD stated it was important that a person-centered
discharge care plan was reviewed and were necessary for all team members to understand Resident 3's
current needs, goals and preferences to ensure a safe and appropriate discharge.The DON stated
discharge care planning should be personalized to each resident and coordinated with the IDT and
discussed with the resident and/or representative to ensure it reflected their goals and supports a safe
discharge from the facility. The DON further stated discharge care plans must be continuously updated
based on the resident's level of care, condition changes, significant events, quarterly reviews and revised
as needed. The DON acknowledged that timely discharge planning was essential to prevent delays, ensure
resident safety, and support a coordinated transition out of the facility.A review of the facility's policy and
procedure titled, Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered dated March 2022, indicated .The
comprehensive, person-centered care plan is developed within seven (7) days of the completion of the
required MDS assessment (Admission, Annual or Significant Change in Status), and no more than 21 days
after admission
