Record review of Resident #2 ' s MDS Record dated [DATE] revealed Resident #2 had a BIM Score of 13 indicating cognition was intact. Record review of Resident #2 ' s physician order summary dated [DATE] revealed CPR (Full Code) order date [DATE]. Record review of Resident #2 ' s care plan reviewed on [DATE] revealed that there was no code status or hoyer lift on the baseline care plan available.

Resident #2 used a hoyer lift, but therapy would help at times with the sliding board. In an interview on [DATE] at 01:49pm Social Services stated that the nurses get the physician orders. She then speaks to the resident and/ or family, whoever was the responsible party, to confirm code status, and get the required signatures. She was responsible for entering the code status in the care plan. She does her own audits. She does not know why the code status was not entered in the baseline care plan. In an interview on [DATE] at 02:02pm CNA I stated Resident #2 used a hoyer lift. She stated the nurse would tell them how residents transfer, if not they look in the computer in the [NAME]. In an interview on [DATE] at 02:06pm MDS J stated that he was not responsible for the baseline care plans. He was responsible for the comprehensive care plans. He over looks the initial baseline care plan. If something was missing, then he corrected it. In an interview on [DATE] at 02:11pm the DON stated that the person responsible for entering code status in the baseline care plan was social services. She stated this was entered immediately. The DON stated the negative outcome of not developing a baseline care plan for the code status was that staff would not be following the resident ' s rights whether a full code or DNR. She stated the hoyer lift needed to be in the baseline care plan because that was how staff communicate and care for the residents amongst themselves. Record review of the facility's policy titled, Baseline Care Plan date Reviewed/Revised [DATE], reflected, Policy: The facility will develop and implement a baseline care plan for each resident that includes the instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care of the resident that meet professional standards of quality care.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few negative outcome for Resident #1's care plan not included she required to be transferred by a hoyer lift because she was already being transferred by one.
