Based on interview and record review, the hospital failed to follow its policy and procedure (P&P) titled,
Background Screening Investigations when one of three sampled Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1's
background check was not completed within two days prior to employment. This failure had the potential to
expose residents to staff with criminal background.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings:
During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/1/25 at 3:18 p.m. with Director Staff Development
(DSD), LVN 1's Employee File (EF) was reviewed. The EF indicated LVN 1's hire date was 2/6/23 and LVN
1's background check was completed on 3/18/23 (one month and six days later). DSD stated the
background check was completed after the hire date and background checks should be completed before
hire date.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Background Screening Investigations, dated 3/2019, the P&P
indicated, The director of personnel, or designee, conducts background checks, reference checks and
criminal conviction checks (including fingerprinting as may be required by state law) on all potential direct
access employees and contractors. Background and criminal checks are initiated within two days of an offer
of employment or contract agreement and completed prior to employment.
