Regulations require care plans be unique and person-centered based on the resident’s individual need.

The entire IDT needs to understand and recognize the regulations behind the care plan process and be competent in developing these plans of care.

1. Identify 2-3 areas of care plan regulation and/or guidance updated with the most recent release of the SOM Appendix PP.
2. Discuss 3-4 survey citations and ways to address.
3. Review 2-3 methods that QAPI team can use to evaluate care plans and reduce risk of deficiencies.
