OAR 411-054-0034 (1-6) Resident Move-in & Evaluation: Res Evaluation (1) INITIAL SCREENING AND MOVE-IN. (a) The facility must determine whether a potential resident meets the facility's admission requirements. (b) Before the resident moving in, the facility must conduct an initial screening to determine the prospective resident's service needs and preferences. The screening must determine the ability of the facility to meet the potential resident's needs and preferences, while considering the needs of the other residents and the facility's overall service capability. (c) Each resident record must, before move-in and when updated, include the following information: (A) Legal name for billing purposes. (B) To promote person-centered care, any variance from legal records, as indicated by the resident, regarding: (i) Name. (ii) Pronouns. (iii) Gender identity. (C) Prior living arrangements; (D) Emergency contacts; (E) Service plan involvement - resident, family, and social supports; (F) Financial and other legal relationships, if applicable, including, but not limited to: (i) Advance directives; (ii) Guardianship; (iii) Conservatorship; and (iv) Power of attorney. (G) Primary language; (H) Community connections; and (I) Health and social service providers. (2) RESIDENT EVALUATION - GENERAL. The resident evaluation identifies the resident's preferences, strengths, and relationships, as well as activities that are meaningful to the individual. The evaluation describes the resident's physical health status, mental status, and the environmental factors that help the individual function at their optimal level. The evaluation is the foundation that a facility uses to develop the resident's service plan. The evaluation information may be collected using tools and protocols established by the facility, but must contain the elements stated in this rule. (a) Resident evaluations must be: (A) Performed before the resident moves into the facility, with updates and changes as appropriate within the first 30 days; and (B) Performed at least quarterly, to correspond with the quarterly service plan updates. (C) Reviewed and any updates must be documented each time a resident has a significant change in condition. (D) Done in person and the facility must gather data that is relevant to the needs and current condition of the resident. (E) Documented, dated, and indicate who was involved in the evaluation process. (b) 24 months of past evaluations must be kept in the resident's files in an accessible, on-site location. (c) The facility administrator is responsible for assuring only trained and experienced staff perform resident evaluations. (3) EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS AT MOVE-IN. (a) The resident evaluation must be completed before the resident moves into the facility. This evaluation provides baseline information of the resident's physical and mental condition at move-in. (b) If there is an urgent need and the evaluation is not completed before move-in, the facility must document the reasons and complete the evaluation within eight hours of move-in. (c) The initial evaluation must contain the elements specified in section (5) of this rule and address sufficient information to develop an initial service plan to meet the resident's needs. (d) The initial evaluation must be updated and modified as needed during the 30 days following the resident's move into the facility. (e) After the initial 30 day move-in period, the initial evaluation must be retained in the resident's file for 24 months. Future evaluations must be separate and distinct from the initial evaluation. (4) QUARTERLY EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS. (a) Resident evaluations must be performed quarterly after the resident moves into the facility. (b) The quarterly evaluation is the basis of the resident's quarterly service plan. (c) The most recent quarterly evaluation, with documented change of condition updates, must be in the resident's current record and available to staff. (d) If the evaluation is revised and updated at the quarterly review, changes must be dated and initialed and prior historical information must be maintained. (5) The resident evaluation must address the following elements: (a) For service planning purposes, if indicated by the resident, (A) Name. (B) Pronouns. (C) Gender identity.

Implemented: ORS 441.111, 441.114, 443.400-443.455, 443.991 This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure resident move-in evaluations addressed all required components for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#1), whose move-in evaluation was reviewed and failed to ensure quarterly evaluations were completed and, in the resident’s current record and available to staff for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 2 and 3). Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 12/2024 with diagnoses including congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, osteoarthritis, anxiety and chronic pain. The move-in evaluation, dated 12/23/24, was reviewed, and there was no documented evidence the following required elements were addressed: * Customary routines related to sleeping and eating; * Mental health issues including, history of treatment, and effective non-drug interventions; * Personality, including how the person copes with change or challenging situations; * Pain, including pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions for pain and how a person expresses pain or discomfort; * Skin condition; * Emergency evacuation ability; * Complex medication regimen; * Recent losses; * Environmental factors that impact the resident’s behavior including but not limited to: noise, lighting, room temperature; * Pronouns; and * Gender Identity. The need to ensure move-in evaluations addressed all required elements was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) on 04/02/25 at 12:15 pm. She acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 moved into the facility in 04/2021 with diagnoses including hypertension and Type 2 diabetes. The quarterly evaluation was not observed in the resident's record or available to staff. Resident 2’s most recent evaluation was requested from Staff 1 (ED) on 04/01/25 at 12:46 pm. The resident's evaluation was received on 04/02/25 at 9:06 am and was dated 04/01/25, which indicated it was completed during the survey event. During an interview on 04/01/25 at 10:05 am, Staff 1 (ED) confirmed the most recent quarterly update completed prior to survey entry was performed 08/20/24. The need to update evaluations quarterly was reviewed with Staff 1 on 04/02/25 at 11:45 am. She acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 02/2022 with diagnoses including osteoporosis and irritable bowel syndrome. The quarterly evaluation was not observed in the resident's record or available to staff. Resident 3’s most recent evaluation was requested from Staff 1 (ED) on 04/01/25 at 12:46 pm. The resident's evaluation was received on 04/02/25 at 9:06 am. The evaluation was hand dated 02/27/25 and initialed by Staff 1 on the top right corner of the evaluation. Resident 3's service plan was dated 08/08/24, and the evaluation occurred on 02/27/25. Therefore, the evaluation was not the basis of the resident's service plan. The need to ensure quarterly evaluations were used as the basis of the quarterly service plan was discussed with Staff 1 on 04/02/25. She acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING. The facility must have written policies to ensure a resident monitoring and reporting system is implemented 24-hours a day. The policies must specify staff responsibilities and identify criteria for notifying the administrator, registered nurse, or healthcare provider. The facility must: (a) Monitor each resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs and service plan; (b) Train staff to identify changes in the resident's physical, emotional and mental functioning and document and report on the resident's changes of condition; (c) Have a reporting protocol with access to a designated staff person, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, who can determine if a change in the resident's condition requires further action; and (d) Provide written communication of a resident's change of condition, and any required interventions, for caregivers on each shift. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to determine actions/interventions needed, communicate actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and monitor changes through resolution, with at least weekly documentation for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 2 and 3) reviewed with short term changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 02/2022 with diagnoses including osteoporosis, and irritable bowel syndrome. The resident's 08/04/24 service plan, 01/03/25 through 03/10/25 progress notes, and interim service plans (ISPs) were reviewed, and interviews with staff and the resident were completed. The following was identified: *A progress note written on 03/07/25 indicated the resident had returned from the emergency department and to monitor for nausea. There was no documented evidence this change was monitored through resolution. The need to monitor short-term changes of condition through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED). She acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 moved into the facility in 04/2021 with diagnoses including hypertension and Type 2 diabetes. The resident's 08/20/24 service plan, 12/31/24 through 03/31/25 progress notes, and temporary service plans were reviewed, and observations and interviews with staff and the resident were completed during the survey. The following short-term changes of condition lacked documentation of resident-specific actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts: * 02/01/25 – Found on floor; * 02/23/25 – Found on floor; * 02/24/25 – Found on floor with redness to the back; * 03/08/25 – Found on floor with redness to the back; * 03/16/25 - Found on floor with left elbow skin tear; * 03/19/25 – Found on floor; * 03/29/25 – Found on floor; and * 03/31/25 – Found on floor. The need to ensure resident-specific actions or interventions for short-term changes of condition were determined, documented, communicated to staff on each shift was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) on 04/02/25.
