Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 9/6/2023 at 9:19 AM with Charge LVN, Charge LVN stated the nurses assessed residents every day for changes in condition and if there was a change, they notified the physician as well as the DON so changes could be made to the care plan.

During an interview on 9/6/2023 at 2:26 PM with FNP , the FNP stated they talked with the facility, and everyone agreed Resident #1 was a low elopement risk and not exit seeking so they thought they would do ok on the LTC unit.

The DON stated the DON and the MDS Coordinator were responsible for completing the care plans. During an interview on 9/6/2023 at 2:59 PM with the Admin, the Admin stated they looked at the care plan for Resident #1 earlier today and Resident #1's care plan shouldn't have said they required the locked facility and that it was a mistake.
