Is Your Center Meeting Person-Centered Planning requirements?
Do your participants or their identified representative lead the care planning process?
Do your care plans include participant identified goals and desired outcomes?
Do you ask and document who your participants would like to have involved in the plan of care?
Do you distribute the care plan to the participant and other people involved in the care plan as authorized by the participant?
Are your care plans written in “plain” language (functional & descriptive) not exclusively clinical language?
Do you discuss and document outside resources for the participant, to support their goals and desired outcomes and make informed choices about their care?
Do you have a policy and a procedure to address what to do when the participant’s goal runs counter to the professional’s recommendation?
If you answered “no” to any of the above questions, your center is not in compliance with federally required person-centered planning regulations that the California Department of Aging is surveying to, right now.
