Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a comprehensive and individualized care plan was developed and implemented for a resident with multiple diagnoses, including a stage 3 pressure ulcer, MRSA, and neurogenic bladder. The resident's admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) documented the presence of a suprapubic catheter, but the comprehensive care plan did not specify the size or type of catheter as required. Instead, the care plan contained generic language with placeholders for catheter details that were not completed. This lack of person-centered information was confirmed during a staff interview, where the Director of Nursing acknowledged that the care plan should have included the specific type and size of catheter but did not.
