Summary
The facility failed to develop and implement a baseline care plan within 48 hours of admission for one resident who was admitted for skilled care services. Clinical record review showed that the resident was readmitted to the facility on 2/27/25, but there was no evidence that a baseline care plan with the necessary instructions for minimum healthcare information was created until 3/3/25, which was four days after admission. This delay was confirmed during an interview with the Assistant Director of Nursing, who acknowledged that the baseline care plan was not initiated within the required 48-hour timeframe.
