By when must the attending physician sign the assessment and plan of care for the person admitted for respite care?

  1. Within 12 hours

  2. Within 24 hours

  3. Within 48 hours

  4. Within 72 hours

The correct answer is: Within 48 hours

The correct answer is within 48 hours. The attending physician must sign the assessment and plan of care for the person admitted for respite care within 48 hours. This timeframe is important to ensure that the individual receives appropriate and timely medical attention and care while staying in the nursing home for respite care. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the required timeframe of within 48 hours for the attending physician to sign the assessment and plan of care for an individual admitted for respite care.
