During interview Administrator stated that staffing is scheduled in accordance and adjusted based on resident census. The Memory Care Director denied that the facility operates with insufficient staffing and reported that additional staff are scheduled during peak care hours and during staff shortage other available staff works overtime to cover. Staff interview revealed that staffing assignments are adequate to meet residents needs. Residents receive assistance as needed and the memory care unit is continuously supervised. Staff denied that residents are left unattended or residents’ care needs go unmet due to staffing levels.
