Fort Hudson Nursing Center Inc

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured.

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in charge on each shift.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.

Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food that accommodates resident allergies, intolerances, and preferences, as well as appealing options.

Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate.
