Section 310:662-5-2 - Plan of care
(a)Non-skilled care. If only personal care is provided, the physician or registered nurse shall prepare a plan of care at the time of initial assessment. The plan of care shall be developed after consultation with the client and/or the client's representative and shall include potential services to be provided; the frequency of visits and/or hours of service; as well as identified problems, method of intervention, and date of resolution. The plan of care for the client shall be communicated to the caregiver prior to or at the time of the delivery of non-skilled care. The plan of care shall be revised as necessary, but it shall be reviewed and updated by the registered nurse and all appropriate staff involved in care delivery at least every six (6) months.
(b)Skilled care. If skilled care is ordered, the order shall be sent by the agency within ten (10) days to the ordering physician to be signed and returned in a timely manner. The plan of care shall be developed at the time of admission in conjunction with all appropriate disciplines and shall cover all pertinent diagnoses, including mental status, types of services and equipment required, frequency of visits/hours, prognoses, functional limitations, activities permitted, nutritional requirements, medications and treatments, any safety measures to protect against injury, and any other appropriate items. Orders for therapy services shall include the specific procedures and modalities to be used and, as appropriate, the amount, frequency and duration. Services delivered shall be consistent with the services ordered in the plan of care. There shall be a continuing review of clinical records for each sixty-two (62) day period that a client receives home care services to determine adequacy of the plan of care and appropriateness of continuation of care.
