if your c/p
date is dated for the 21st day, and they are leaving, it is not mandatory
to have a c/p. Upon admission, I developed a c/p jacket that the state
even made a copy of they were impressed w/. The front page is all adl,
nutritional, mobility, restraint, smokers, skin, continence, mental
etc-just like the MDS, but all you do is make check marks in pencil, on
the inside cover are all the possible medical diagnosis/conditions, the
activities, again requiring checks in pencil of course, because you can
always go back and chg as they progress or decline prn, on the back
outside cover is where the c/p team sign as well as the people /residents
attending, including info if the c/p confernce was via phone. This is
compeleted within 48h. So you know what and what not the resident is
capable of on the onset............With incidents example falls, skin
tears or behavioral concerns, I developed a form that is to be dated w/the
stated problem, Fall and write out my intervention/prevention, same for
behavior etc. so when it comes tim e to do a full c/p espically for the
long term residents, these forms can be incorporated into the typed c/p
and it is a form of keeping your c/p up to date.

>Missed AssessmentIf the resident
is gone, you will just have to take the hit on the careplan. There is no
reason, clinical or financial, to justify doing the plan after the
resident leaves. Be aware you could be hit on a survey for not having done
it in a timely manner. Was the resident there for less than 21 days? If
so, you may not be at such a high risk since you would not have to have
completed the careplan, but they can still get you for not having started
one.

what you would do. I know for a resident in house you would go
ahead and schedule, QA like I said before, etc. But what would
you do since the resident is being discharged especially since this is
managed care and payment may hinge on the care plan, MDS, etc.

be day 14. That date may be a week or more in the past...so be
it. Setting the ARD during the correct date range ensures that
the data in the assessment is correct. Your R2b (and VB2 and VB4 if
appropriate) has to be the ACTUAL date on which you completed the
assessment. It can't be legally backdated. Try to finish the assessment
within 14 days of the ARD. If you can't do it, then finish as soon as
possible.

This keeps as much of the timing as possible in the correct range.

- help please. How do you handle missed assessments when you
are beyond the 14th day of admission and discover the error? Would you set
the ARD for date of discharge and do the assessment after the
fact? Thanks.
