The Groves Assisted Living Place Llc-Oak

Based on record review and interview, the manager failed to ensure a resident's service plan accurately included the amount, type, and frequency of assisted living services being provided to the resident, for one of two sampled residents. Findings include: A review of R2's medical record revealed R2 was admitted more than one year prior to the on-site inspection. A review of R2's medical record revealed a service plan, updated January 6, 2026, for directed care services. The service plan required provision of the following service: "Mobility: Fall Risk Needs Supervision, Walker. Requires positioning: Yes, 2 Hour(s)...." A review of R2's medical record revealed a document titled "ADL Sheet" (ADL) dated February 2026. The ADL documented the services provided to R2. The ADL included a section labeled, "Repositioning every 2 hours, Check box if the resident was repositioned." However, this section had been left blank for each day between February 1 through February 5. In an interview, E1 reported R2 did require repositioning when R2 was admitted to the facility; however, R2 has regained mobility and independence and no longer requires repositioning. E1 reported the caregivers did provide the services required by R2, and the service plan was not accurate at the time of the inspection as R2 no longer required the repositioning service listed in the service plan. In an exit interview with E1, the findings were reviewed and no additional information was provided.

Based on record review and interview, the manager failed to ensure a resident's written service plan was signed and dated by the resident or resident's representative when initially developed and when updated, for one of two residents sampled. Findings include: 1. A review of R1's medical record revealed service plans dated November 11, 2024, for directed care services. However, the service plan was not signed and dated by R1 or R1's representative, and documentation of attempts to obtain a representative signature on the service plan was not available for review. 2. In an interview, E1 acknowledged the service plan provided for R1 had not been signed and dated by R1 or their representative when the service plan was updated.
