Risk Management

Where a Client chooses to live at risk, the Operator must ensure:

1. a managed risk agreement is initiated between the Operator and the Client or the Client’s legal representative, if applicable that includes the Risk Management strategies to be implemented;
2. the managed risk agreement is dated and contains the Client’s signature or the Client’s legal representative’s signature, if applicable;
3. documentation in the Care Plan of the inability or unwillingness of the Client or the Client’s legal representative, if applicable, to sign the managed risk agreement;
4. the Client or the Client’s legal representative, if applicable, are provided with a signed copy of the managed risk agreement;
5. a signed managed risk agreement is filed on the Client’s chart and a copy placed in their Care Plan; and
6. the managed risk agreement is reviewed during the Interdisciplinary Team conference.
