In the nursing home example, changes to a patient's status may cause the patient to be discussed sooner than the monthly review.

When a resident's status changes in a nursing home, the care team typically revisits the plan of care sooner than the regularly scheduled monthly review. This immediate discussion helps address new needs, prevent potential complications, adjust treatments or interventions, and coordinate with families and providers based on the latest information. The monthly review remains important, but it’s not the only time changes are discussed; urgent changes trigger a prompt reassessment. So the statement is true.
