F 0641 Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure the assessment accurately reflected the resident status for 1 (Resident #56) of 15 residents reviewed for assessments in that: Residents Affected - Few Resident #56's thick nectar liquids were not reflected on the MDS. This failure could affect residents at the facility who had been assessed and could contribute to inadequate care.

Record review of physicians' orders for Resident # 56, dated March 2023 revealed a physician's order for thick nectar liquids on 10/06/2022. Record review of Resident #56 's updated care plan, undated, did not reveal a care plan to address the resident's physician's order for thick nectar liquids.

Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Certifying Accuracy of the Resident Assessment, revised November 2019, revealed 3. The information captured on the assessment reflects the status of the resident during the observation (look-back) period for that assessment.
