Summary
The facility failed to provide physical therapy (PT) services as ordered for one resident. According to the resident's physician order, PT was to be provided five times per week for four weeks, totaling 20 sessions. However, documentation showed that the resident only received 15 PT sessions during this period. The Director of Rehab stated she believed the order was for 3-5 sessions per week rather than five, and attributed the missed sessions to scheduling conflicts. The Director of Nursing acknowledged ongoing issues with residents missing therapy sessions.
