CARE AND/OR SUPERVISION: 34780 - RCR s.82 - A licensee must ensure that the care and supervision of a person in care is consistent with the terms and conditions of the person in care's care plan.
Observation: A person in care, who historically (since 2019) has worn hip protectors, was found to be without hip protectors on. When facility leadership asked staff why the person in care was not wearing hip protectors, staff indicated that the hip protectors were being laundered but that the person in care usually wears them. Upon reviewing the care plan, no hip protectors were found to listed even though the person in care reportedly usually wears them which is not consistent with the terms and conditions of the care plan. On the day of the inspection, hip protectors were once again added to the care plan.
Corrective Action(s): Ensure that the care and supervision of persons in care is consistent with the terms and conditions of the care plans of the persons in care.
