Summary
The facility failed to revise the care plan for Resident #8 to address newly diagnosed contractures in both lower legs. Record review showed that while the resident's care plan included a diagnosis of knee stiffness from January 2024, it did not reflect the contractures diagnosed in April 2025. Both the Director of Nursing and the MDS Nurse confirmed during interviews that the care plan did not mention the contractures, only the previously documented knee stiffness. This omission was identified during a review of nine care plans, with the facility census at 17 residents.
