He said he believed a physician had been notified of the lapse but could not point to any physician order changes or care plan revisions made during the period the services went unprovided.

The Regional Director of Clinical Nursing Services confirmed it plainly: during the lapse, the facility did not update care plans or modify physician orders for the residents affected. She told inspectors the facility had since discussed plans to hold Interdisciplinary Team conferences to notify residents of service interruptions going forward.

The Regional Director of Nursing said those discussions had happened during morning rounds. There was no documentation to confirm it.

The facility's own assessment, updated just a month before the inspection in November 2025, described its rehab services in confident terms: physical, occupational, and speech therapies provided in a manner to meet the needs of residents. The document noted staff were "proficient with and continue to learn new telehealth platforms."

What it did not describe was any process for what happens when those services stop, even temporarily, and residents are left waiting through a weekend with care plans that no longer reflect their actual situation.
