CMS is concerned about individually based limitations. Expect more trainings and oversight. Ensure your community is strictly adhering to the rules. You can find existing state guidance here.  The state is still drafting their remediation plan in response to CMS. We will share information as it becomes available but here is what you need to know:

• Expect more education and training for staff. All level of staff are expected to know and understand residents rights and are expected to be able to answer questions.
• Ensure appropriate documentation in care and service plans.  Be sure plans are updated to include residents’ like, dislikes, goals and preferences.
• We expect the state will specifically be looking to add addition education and guidance around privacy, locks, and more.
