This deficient practice affects residents who depend on nursing care and could place residents at risk for incomplete or inaccurate assessment and care plans. The findings included:Record review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 12/02/2025 revealed an admission date of 11/28/2025 with diagnosis which included: acute on chronic combines systolic congestive and diastolic heart failure (heart failure where both sides of the heart are compromised), type 2 diabetes mellitus without complications and primary open-angle glaucoma bilateral stage unspecified (symptomless vision loss due to elevated eye pressure when then eye drainage system fails). Record review of Resident #1's MDS assessments revealed she did not have a comprehensive assessment due to new admission status. Record review of Resident #1's assessment and baseline care plan dated 11/28/2025 revealed as assessment review all body systems was completed including a physical a head-to-toe assessment, vital signs and completion of the baseline care plan signed by LVN B.

She stated LVN B did conduct the initial assessment which included the baseline care plan for Resident #1. She stated an RN should go behind the LVN within 48 hours and review the assessment and baseline care plan and document the review. She stated on the last page of the baseline care plan and initial assessment there was a place to document the RN review. The DNS stated she did not consider a complete head-to-toe assessment to be a comprehensive assessment, rather each section was considered a focus assessment.

He stated he was aware of all new admission residents, and he knew who is coming in to the facility. He stated in addition; he reviewed PCC daily. He stated it had been corrected (after surveyor intervention). He stated he ensured everything was transferred over from the initial assessment/baseline care plan to the comprehensive care plan.
