Based on the comprehensive assessment of a patient conducted pursuant to NAC 449.74433, a facility for skilled nursing shall ensure that:

1. The range of motion of a patient admitted to the facility is not reduced unless the reduction is unavoidable because of the medical condition of the patient; and

2. A patient with a limited range of motion receives the services and treatment needed to increase the patient’s range of motion and to prevent any further loss in his or her range of motion.
