When must the physician complete the resident's medical history and physical examination record after admission?

  1. Within 24 hours

  2. Within 36 hours

  3. Within 48 hours

  4. Within 72 hours

The correct answer is: Within 48 hours

The correct answer is within 48 hours. It is essential for the physician to complete the resident's medical history and physical examination record promptly after admission to ensure that the resident's healthcare needs are appropriately addressed and that the necessary care plans are developed in a timely manner. A 48-hour timeframe strikes a balance between prompt assessment and allowing the physician a reasonable amount of time to gather information and perform a thorough evaluation of the resident's health status. Waiting longer than 48 hours could potentially compromise the quality of care provided to the resident.
