This failure could affect residents who have care areas not addressed by the care plans by not having their needs met and putting them at risk of not receiving appropriate care. The findings included: Record review of Resident #1's admission record, dated 11/04/25, reflected an [AGE] year-old female initially admitted [DATE] and re-admitted [DATE] with diagnoses to include dementia (loss of cognitive functioning that interferes with daily life and activities), Parkinson's disease (movement disorder of the nervous system) with dyskinesia (involuntary muscle movements), and Protein calorie malnutrition.

Record review of Resident #2's MDS assessment (no type selected), dated 10/20/25, reflected Resident #2 had a BIMS of 4 out of 15, indicating severely impaired cognition.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete sometimes staff needed to help Resident #1 with her meal the whole mealtime.

Interview on 11/05/25 at 02:53 PM, LVN B revealed both Resident #1 and Resident #2 needed help getting fed at mealtimes. She revealed she knew a resident needed help with eating based on observations at mealtimes and did not need a care plan to know this. Interview on 11/06/25 at 11:52 AM, SLP revealed he worked with Resident #1 and not Resident #2. He revealed Resident #1 needed help with eating at mealtimes. He revealed it was important for Resident #1 to receive help at mealtimes so she could receive proper nutrition, and it would be a safety issue if she did not receive help. Interviews on 11/06/25 at 01:01 PM, MDS nurse C and MDS nurse D revealed multiple staff were able to update resident care plans because it could be challenging for MDS nurses to be able to document everything necessary for resident care in their respective care plans. They revealed they oversaw that the care plans were up to date but might miss some updates. MDS nurse C revealed Resident #1 would sometimes feed herself, but other days Resident #1 needed help with eating. MDS nurse C further revealed Resident #2 also needed help eating and their care plans needed to be updated. MDS nurse D revealed updating care plans were important because it was the residents' plan of care and a blueprint. Interview on 11/06/2025 at 01:27 PM, the ADON revealed Resident #1 and Resident #2 needed help when being fed and the nursing staff looked at care plans to know this about resident care. Interview on 11/06/25 at 04:35 PM, the DON and ADM revealed it was challenging to keep care plans up to date; however, they were important for resident care. They revealed the updated care plan updated the Kardex which told CNAs what to do. They revealed they ensured their CNAs and nurses were up to date with knowing what to do for resident care. Record review of facility's policy, Care Plan, dated February 2017, reflected, .The care plan should serve as a guide, which should direct care needs, care choices and care preferences.
