We use an admission care plan that is started on our long - term admissions on day 1 of admission and added to as needed until the 21 comprehensive care plan is completed. We use the one posted on the AANAC website (modified to our facility). We also have interim's -we pull for acute problems i.e. UTIs, URI, pneumoniae, skin tear - they are pretty much routine interventions with an area to individualize - they are removed when the acute problem is resolved. We also have a seperated Care plan for our short term rehabs - for they are reviewed every 2 weeks until discharged or become long-term. Hope this helps. Holly McGran MSN RN
