Based on record review and staff interview, the facility failed to revise a resident's care plan to address the identified problem of physical aggression resulting in injury towards another resident. The facility did not identify triggers, plan care, and provide individualized interventions to prevent and minimize agitation towards others for 1 (Resident #75) of 5 residents reviewed for behaviors. The findings included: The facility's policy Care Plans-Comprehensive, revised October 2010, states An individualized comprehensive care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's medical, nursing, and psychosocial needs is developed for each resident. When possible, interventions address the underlying source(s) of the problem area(s), rather than addressing only symptoms or triggers. Assessments of residents are ongoing and care plans are revised as information about the resident and the residents change. On 3/15/21 at 10:17 a.m., Resident #75 was observed walking in the hallway of the 700 unit. The resident was confused and not responding appropriately on attempt to interview. Review of Resident #75's clinical record revealed a nursing progress note indicating the resident had a physical altercation with another resident. On 1/22/21 at 6:00 a.m., staff heard a commotion in the resident's room and when staff entered the room, Resident #75's roommate was on the floor with visible injury to his nose. When asked what happened, Resident #75 said I hit him. The residents were separated; one to one supervision commenced; the resident's physician was made aware; and changes were made in the resident's medications. On 3/18/21 at 10:00 a.m., in an interview Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Staff P said Resident #75 would push him away when he tried to give care, especially showers. Staff P said the resident did this frequently and usually 2 CNAs went in together. He tried to calm the resident by telling him to sit down, relax, gave him a glass of water, and sometimes bringing him outside to the garden helped. An activity such as ball toss also helped take out his aggression. On 3/17/21, Resident #75's comprehensive care plan, dated 7/6/20, was reviewed. Under the problem of behavior issues, the care plan had not been revised and updated to address the resident's physical aggression which resulted in injury to another resident on 1/22/21. The plan did not include possible triggers which staff would need to be alerted to, or specific interventions such as increased monitoring, specific activities, or other identified interventions to help minimize these behaviors. On 3/18/21 at 10:36 a.m., and 12:57 p.m., in an interview Licensed Practical Nurse Staff J said the CNAs get their information on how to care for residents from the nurse and also the care plans were available at the nursing stations. Staff J confirmed Resident #75's care plan had not been revised to address the resident's altercation with his roommate that resulted in injury.
