Staff 1 (Administrator) stated the facility had been using the Oregon Department of Human Services ABST tool, but after a management take over they were moving to "Yardy" ABST and s/he was responsible for updating it. Staff 1 confirmed the posted staffing plan had not been updated to reflect the ABST and s/he had not entered all of the resident service plans as required.
