Summary
The facility failed to develop and implement a care plan specific to the management of dementia for a resident diagnosed with vascular dementia. According to the facility's care plan policy, each resident is to have a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that addresses their medical, nursing, mental, and psychosocial needs, including measurable objectives and timeframes. Record review showed that the resident's current care plan did not include any goals or interventions related to dementia care, despite the resident's documented diagnosis. This omission was confirmed by the Director of Nursing during an interview.
