(C) A selection of daily structured and non-structured activities must be provided and included on the resident ' s activity service or care plan as appropriate. Daily activity options based on resident evaluation may include but are not limited to: (i) Occupation or chore related tasks; (ii) Scheduled and planned events (e.g. entertainment, outings); (iii) Spontaneous activities for enjoyment or those that may help diffuse a behavior; (iv) One to one activities that encourage positive relationships between residents and staff (e.g. life story, reminiscing, music); (v) Spiritual, creative, and intellectual activities; (vi) Sensory stimulation activities; (vii) Physical activities that enhance or maintain a resident ' s ability to ambulate or move; and (viii) Outdoor activities. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to evaluate the resident for activities and develop an individual activity plan based on their activity evaluation, for 3 of 3 sampled residents (#s 1, 2, and 3) whose activity plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: During the survey, many sampled and unsampled residents were observed needing assistance and encouragement from staff to initiate, attend, and participate in activities. The facility offered group activities, which many residents attended. Some residents did not attend the activities and, instead, stayed in their rooms, sat in the common areas watching TV or falling asleep, or walked around the facility. All residents were diagnosed with some type of dementia. Resident 1, 2, and 3’s “90 Day Activity Evaluations” and current service plans were reviewed, and observations were made of the residents. The following was identified: Though the evaluations included some information about activity preferences, cognitive abilities and needs, and social interactions, the evaluations lacked a thorough evaluation of: * Past interests; * Current abilities and skills; * Emotional and social needs and patterns; * Physical abilities and limitations; * Adaptations necessary for the resident to participate; and * Identification of activities for behavioral interventions. The facility did not use the information gathered in the activity evaluation to develop an individualized activity plan which detailed what, when, how, and how often staff should offer and assist the residents with more individualized activities. The need to develop individualized activity plans that were based on a thorough evaluation of the resident's activity interests, abilities, and needs was discussed with Staff 1 (Co-owner), Staff 3 (ED/Human Resources), and Staff 5 (RN) on 02/19/26 at 11:52 am and with Staff 1, Staff 3, Staff 5, and Staff 6 (Lead MT) 3:40 pm. They acknowledged the findings. Upon identification of the deficiency related to OAR 411-057-0160 (2)(d) Activities, The facility immediately reviewed the activities plans for the identified resident(s) and corrected any deficiencies to ensure resident needs were addressed. Activities staff and nursing leadership ensured that meaningful activities are planned and documented for each resident at move-in and during the 90-day evaluation, reflecting individual preferences, abilities, and interests. The activities calendar was reviewed, updated, and will be maintained to ensure all planned activities are offered and followed consistently. To prevent recurrence, staff were re-educated on the requirements for documenting and implementing resident activities and on maintaining a current and accurate activities calendar. The Executive Director or designee will monitor compliance by auditing resident activities plans and the activities calendar weekly for 90 days to ensure that meaningful, resident-centered activities are occurring as planned. Any discrepancies identified will be corrected immediately and documented. After 90 days, monitoring will transition to routine quality assurance review.
