Interview on 04/27/22 at 9:24 am with MDS B revealed she was the MDS Coordinator for Resident #63. She said she had missed developing a care plan for focus areas of cognitive communication deficit, advance directives and diagnosis of diabetes. Interview on 04/28/22 at 1:20 pm with MDS B revealed the comprehensive care plan for Resident #63 should have been developed and completed seven days after the MDS assessment dated [DATE]. Resident #63's care plan should have been completed by 04/01/22. MDS B said the baseline care plan had been completed. MDS B said she missed developing the care plan for Resident #63. The care plans gave instructions to staff for care to be provided to residents. MDS B said the comprehensive care plan was based on the MDS assessment and was a combination of resident's goals, timelines to achieve those goals and interventions to help meet those goals. Interview on 04/28/22 at 2:16 pm with Social Worker revealed she was responsible for developing the comprehensive care plan for advance directives for Resident #63.

If there is no care plan developed, it would be her duty to let Administration that there is no care plan or to clarify. MDS B said she had not noticed Resident #63's care plans were not complete. Interview on 04/28/22 at 3:28 pm with CNA H revealed Resident #63 was sometimes confused and voiced some situations that were not facts. CNA H said she did not know if Resident #63 was diabetic.

Interview on 4/27/22 at 09:30 a.m. with LVN A, the charge nurse she stated she did not check the oxygen rate on the cannister and knew that she should have. She stated it was important to make sure the resident was on the correct oxygen rate because of their ability to breath and have enough saturation of oxygen in the blood. She stated that Resident #60 took off and put on her nasal cannula and sometimes it was on the floor. Interview on 4/28/22 at 1:20 p.m. with MDS B revealed that Resident #60's comprehensive person-centered care plan should have been revised after her quarterly MDS assessment to reflect that she took off and put on her nasal cannula and adjusted her rate of oxygen on the concentrator to make staff aware of her behaviors and to monitor for changes.

A well developed and executed assessment and care plan: o Looks at each resident as a whole human being with unique characteristics and strengths; o Views the resident in distinct functional areas for the purpose of gaining knowledge about the resident's functional status (MDS); o Gives the IDT a common understanding of the resident; o Re-groups the information gathered to identify possible issues and/or conditions that the resident may have (i.e., triggers); o Provides additional clarity of potential issues and/or conditions by looking at possible causes and risks (CAA process); o Develops and implements an interdisciplinary care plan based on the assessment information gathered throughout the RAI process, with necessary monitoring and follow up; o Reflects the resident's/resident representative's input, goals, and desired outcomes; o Provides information regarding how the causes and risks associated with issues and/or conditions can be addressed to provide for a resident's highest practicable level of wellbeing (care planning); o Re-evaluates the resident's status at prescribed intervals (i.e., quarterly, annually, or if a significant change in status occurs) using the RAI and then modifies the individualized care plan as appropriate and necessary.

Resident #3's room refrigerator was dirty with grime, food containers undated and leaking melted water from the freezer compartment in the upper section of fridge. These failures could place residents at risk of a diminished quality of life due to exposure to an environment that is unpleasant and non-homelike.
