Summary
The facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that addressed the specific needs of a resident diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. According to facility policy, care plans must include measurable objectives and timetables to meet each resident's physical, psychosocial, and functional needs, and should be revised as the resident's condition changes. Review of the clinical record for this resident, who was cognitively intact and required assistance with daily care, showed no documented evidence of a care plan targeting care needs related to Parkinson's disease. This deficiency was confirmed by the Nursing Home Administrator during an interview.
