Plan of Correction
It is policy at this facility for each patient's case to be reviewed in consultation between two qualified staff members at least every 90 days. The review will include changes in assessment if relevant, measures of progress, treatment plan goals, and details of planned interventions. The attestation will be a dated signature by the consulted staff member on the treatment plan (update), in addition to the assigned counselor's signature, and the Medical Review Officer signature in Medicaid cases. This policy is posted in the break room and has been discussed by the director with each counselor. It has gone into effect February 1, 2022 with all new cases and open charts. This POC is under the authority and responsibility of the Facility Director. |
