F0836Facility-Wide Assessments

This tag relates to the facility's obligation to conduct and maintain a facility-wide assessment covering resident population, resources, and staffing needs, used to inform care delivery and staffing decisions. Often cited together with F0838, the tag specific to the facility assessment document itself.

Common Deficiency Examples

  • Facility assessment not reflecting current resident population acuity
  • Assessment not used to inform actual staffing or resource decisions
  • Assessment not reviewed/updated on required schedule or after significant change
  • Key components (resident characteristics, staff competencies) missing from the assessment
