The care plans for Residents #24 failed to address her dementia diagnosis and what services would be provided to maintain the resident's needs These failures could affect residents by placing them at risk for not receiving care and services to meet their needs.

The resident's diagnoses included: depression, bipolar (mood) disorder, and non-Alzheimer's dementia (mental decline). Review of Resident #24's Comprehensive Care Plan initiated 11/30/17 revealed it did not address Resident #24's dementia. Interview with REG N on 07/11/23 at 12:00 AM revealed facility staff overlooked Resident #24's MDS and missed the dementia diagnosis. REG N stated that if residents were admitted all their diagnosis should be in the care plan. REG N stated the purpose for the care plan was to put in place interventions so staff could properly manage residents' care. REG N stated that by Resident #24 having an incomplete care plan for dementia she could potentially become more confused. When asked who is responsible for ensuring care plans are complete, Reg N responded LVN A and LVN B are but are on leave. Interview with the DON on 07/11/23 at 12:25 PM revealed facility staff updated how they did care plans by doing standard care meetings. DON stated every week she reviews everything regarding the residents from admission and onwards and documents on a checklist during the standard of care meetings. [NAME] stated that staff has a checklist to use for any changes that occurred with the resident( vitals, med profile, medications). DON stated the facility must have missed the diagnosis for Resident #24 by accident. The DON stated the dementia diagnosis should have been care planned. The DON stated that if Resident #24 was not properly care planned for dementia, that could lead to a decline in care and affect her daily activities.
