The DSD stated the Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) completed the skin check forms and placed them in the binder each day. The DSD stated the residents' skin checks, baths, and/or showers were completed at the same time unless the residents were bedridden. The DSD stated that residents like Resident 3 (who were bedridden) would have received bed baths daily and showers once a week. During a concurrent interview and record review on 7/8/25 at 4:10 p.m., with the Licensed Nurse (LN) 1, the document titled, July 2025 ADL-Bathing, (a task list documentation in the electronic medical record [EMR]) was reviewed. LN 1 stated that the residents' baths and showers were documented with body skin checks by the CNAs.

LN 1 stated that the CNAs also documented baths and/or showers on the task lists electronically in the residents' medical records. LN 1 stated that Resident 3 went to the acute (area that treated new health concerns) care facility on 6/27/25 and returned to the facility from acute care on 7/3/25. LN 1 confirmed that Resident 3 received a shower on 7/8/25.During a concurrent interview and record review on 7/8/25 at 4:35 p.m., with the Medical Records (MR), Resident 3's clinical document titled, May 2025 and June 2025 ADL-Bathing (task list documentation) was reviewed.

MDS stated the document did not indicate if Resident 3 had a bath or shower. The MDS confirmed that Resident 3's ADL-Bathing task list indicated that Resident 3 did not have a shower in May 2025 or in June 2025.

The DON stated that her expectation was that residents who were bedridden received bed baths daily and received showers once a week. The DON stated that when the residents received bed baths, they were wet fully while in bed. The DON confirmed that Resident 3 did not receive a shower in May 2025 or June 2025.
