This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review the facility failed to develop, review, and revise the care plans in accordance with the comprehensive assessments for one out of three residents (Resident 1). Resident 1 was assessed as a high risk for weight loss and had a history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT- blood thickens and clumps together on to vein mostly occur in the lower leg or thigh) on her right leg. Resident 1's care plan to manage her nutritional needs and weight loss were not revised to include RD recommendations, and reviewed or reevaluated when the interventions to prevent further weight loss were ineffective. Resident 1's care plan to prevent skin breakdown did not include peripheral vascular disease (PVD, also known as DVT), which caused a decrease in tissue perfusion, as a risk factor for skin breakdown. There was no care plan developed to manage the decrease in tissue perfusion in the lower extremities. This deficient practice had the potential to result in unmet needs. Findings: On 7/19/17 at 11 a.m., an unannounced visit was conducted to the facility to investigate an allegation of neglect regarding Resident 1's significant weight loss and development of a wound on Resident 1's right foot.

Resident 1 had a white bandage wrapped around her right foot. Resident 1's right foot was not elevated. A review of Resident 1's Record of Admission indicated the resident was readmitted to the facility on 5/10/17 with diagnoses that included muscles weakness, dementia (long term and often gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember that is great enough to affect a person's daily functioning) and diabetes mellitus (a metabolism disorder that affects the body's ability to use blood sugar). A review of Resident 1's Weekly Weight Monitoring form indicated the resident's readmission weight was 99 lbs. A review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H & P) form, dated 5/11/17, indicated Resident 1 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. Resident 1's H & P, dated 6/23/16, indicated Resident 1's diagnosis included deep vein thrombosis (DVT- blood thickens and clumps together in the blood vessels that occur in the lower leg or thigh) on the right leg. A review of Resident 1's Care Plan for Nutrition, dated 5/10/17, indicated that Resident 1 was at risk for nutritional needs. Resident 1's care plan goal indicated the resident would not have a weight loss of 5 lbs monthly. The interventions included Resident 1's weight would be monitored and recorded, and the physician would be notified. There was no revisions made on this care plan to include RD recommendations made after 5/10/17 for nutritional supplements.

A review of Resident 1's Nutritional Assessment (an evaluation tool to gather information to an individual's food and nutrient intake, lifestyle, and medical history) form, dated 5/12/17 and completed by the RD, indicated Resident 1 was a high risk for excessive weight loss. The form indicated the RD's plan to implement for Resident 1 was to receive fortified (to add extra nutrients) pureed diet, no concentrated sweets, Pro-Stat sugar free (a ready-to-drink medical food for wounds and protein energy malnutrition) three times a day, and health shakes 4 ounces (oz.) daily at 2 p.m. A review of Resident 1's Vital Sign Flow Sheet form indicated the following weight record: - On 6/17/17, the resident's weight was 83 lbs, a decrease of 16 lbs five (5) weeks from readmission. - On 7/7/17, the resident's weight was 77 lbs, a decrease of six (6) lbs four weeks from 6/17/17. Resident 1 lost 22 lbs from readmission. A review of Resident 1's care plan for weight loss, dated 6/17/17, indicated the resident's current weight was 83 lbs.

On 7/19/17 at 3:15 p.m., during an interview and record review with the director of nursing (DON 1), she stated Resident 1's clinical record did not indicate a care plan on risk for decrease tissue perfusion in the lower extremities. On 11/7/17 at 2:10 p.m., during concurrent interview and record review, DON 2 stated Resident 1's care plan that was initiated on 6/17/17 should have been reevaluated and revised due to it not being effective.

The care plan did not include peripheral vascular disease (PVD, a condition that restricts normal blood flow to and from the heart, which can provoke DVT) as a risk factor for skin breakdown. A review of Resident 1's care plan titled, "Skin Discoloration," dated 7/5/17, indicated Resident 1 would be monitored for skin breakdown daily due to skin discoloration to right plantar foot. A review of Resident 1's revised care plan for the management of skin breakdown related to diabetes mellitus, dated 7/5/17, indicated that Resident 1 was at risk for poor circulation triggered by Resident 1's DM manifested by discoloration to right plantar foot. Resident 1's left pedal pulse (the beat of the heart as felt through the walls of a peripheral artery of the foot) was positive (could be felt) while the right pedal pulse was weak.

The physician ordered a dietary (RD) consult but the RD evaluated the resident on 7/7/17, 20 days after the physician order was made due to lack of communication from the licensed nurses. The IDT conducted a weight management care planning on 6/17/17 and 7/7/17 but the IDT did not develop interventions to prevent further weight loss and documentation of an effort to determine the cause of the weight loss.
