8209 REHABILITATION CENTER OF SOUTH GEORGIA 115676 2002 TIFT AVENUE NORTH TIFTON GA 31794 2012-11-01 279 D 0 1 GCPU11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, observations and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to develop a care plan for one resident (#68) with a limited range of motion and for one resident (A) with impaired vision from a total sample of 39 residents. Findings include: 1. Resident # 68 had [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Licensed nursing staff coded the resident on the 5/21/12 and 8/17/12 quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments as having functional limitations to both of his/her upper and lower extremities. Staff coding on those MDS forms indicated that the resident was not being provided range of motion exercises or restorative nursing services. During an interview on 10/29/12 at 3:05 p.m., licensed nurse DD stated that resident #68 had contractures of his/her upper and lower extremities. The resident was observed lying in bed in a fetal position with both legs drawn up on 10/30/12 at 10:44 a.m. However, staff did not include the resident's identified problem of limited range of motion on his/her care plan. See F318 for additional information regarding resident #68. 2. Resident A had [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The nursing staff coded the resident on his/her 8/15/12 annual Minimum Data Set ( MDS) assessment as having moderately impaired vision and no corrective lenses. Staff documented on the Care Area Assessment (CAA) Summary form that the resident's visual function triggered being care planned to address the problem. However, a review of the resident's care plan revealed that, as of 10/30/12, the staff had not developed a care plan to address the resident's vision needs. Staff developed a care plan to address the resident's vision problem after surveyor inquiry on 10/31/12. See F 313 for additional information regarding resident A. 2016-06-01
