Violations:
Standard #: 22VAC40-73-450-B
Description: Based on a review of six resident records the comprehensive service plans were either missing or incomplete.
Residents A and C comprehensive service plan which is required within thirty days of admission.
Resident E had no seven-day or comprehensive as required.
Resident D had no documentation of a six month review required following admission to a secure unit.
The information contained on the uniform assessment instruments for the six files reviewed did not consistently match the information provided on the service plans that were available.
They further did not consistently include mechanical supports required by the individual, special texture diets, oxygen when required, descriptions of behaviors and interventions.
Service plans were observed not to be readily available to direct care staff. This was confirmed by interviews with 3 staff.

Plan of Correction: As per the administrator, all records will be reviewed and brought into compliance. The administrator assumes responsibility for overseeing correction and future compliance. The facility will receive assistance as needed from applicable corporate staff.
Service plans will further be made available to all staff. An in-service will be conducted and documented regarding service plans and the role direct care staff can play in regards to assessments and plans for individuals residing in the facility.

Standard #: 22VAC40-73-680-H
Description: Based on a review of medication administration records (MARs) the MARs did not contain the required information including documentation from staff as required by the standard. Residents with physician orders for monitoring weight and the use of as needed medication did not include parameters when physician should be notified. Duplicate orders were on the MARs for resident E. For resident I staff were documenting removal of ankle supports on the same days staff had indicated application of the supports was refused. It was not clear which residents were and were not receiving wound care with the exception of resident C whose wound care was documented as being provided by medication aides which is out of their scope of practice.

Plan of Correction: The facility nurse assumes responsibility along with the administrator for correction and future compliance of this standard. Physician orders will be reviewed, parameters added as applicable, duplicates removed.
Medication aides are aware that wound care is out of their scope of practice ? the MAR will indicate this is to be done only by a nurse. All MARs will be reviewed, corrected and continued to be reviewed a minimum of monthly. The facility will receive assistance as needed from applicable corporate staff. They will further assist in monitoring.
