Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To serve as evaluation criteria and meet the standards of the Joint Commission (2010), the plan must be developed by a registered nurse, not LPN, nor physician. The plan of care must be documented in the client's health record, and it must reflect the standards of care established by the institution and the profession.
