LPA interviewed R1, who stated they are bathed every Monday and are satisfied with their bathing schedule. Additionally, the Resident Care Director was interviewed and explained that the only times R1 missed a bath were when they refused or were unavailable due to hospitalization. The Assisted Living Coordinator corroborated this, noting that R1's bath schedule was changed in December 2023, from 5 times a week to once a week. LPA reviewed two care plans. The care plan dated 10/09/2023 indicated that R1 preferred to be bathed daily. However, the care plan dated 10/19/2024 reflected that R1 preferred to shower once a week on Monday evenings. LPA was also provided with a "PointClickCare" document showing that, as of 12/04/2023, R1's bath schedule was reduced to once a week. Further review of the bath log revealed a total of 90 documented baths for R1 between October 2023 and September 2024. During this period, R1 refused baths 7 times and was unavailable on 3 occasions. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED .
