When must the comprehensive assessment be completed after a resident's admission?

The comprehensive assessment must be completed within 14 days after a resident's admission to ensure that the facility understands the individual needs and preferences of the resident promptly. This timeframe allows staff to gather essential information, evaluate the resident's current health status, and identify specific care and support requirements. Conducting the assessment within this period is crucial for developing a personalized care plan that effectively addresses the resident’s needs, thereby enhancing their quality of life and ensuring safety and well-being in the living environment.

While other timeframes may be associated with different processes or regulations, the 14-day requirement is specifically set to allow timely intervention and support for the resident, which is critical in a residential care or assisted living context.
