There is a number of nursing staff who need to go and get them cut down as they go and get their nails done. Typically they go every 2 weeks and I am expecting for the staffs nails to be in compliance by that time frame. 3. A lunch meal observation was conducted on 06/23/25 at 12:29 p.m. Observed Staff S, CNA serve 4 separate meal trays. No hand hygiene was performed. Staff S. then sat down next to an unidentified resident and began assisting with the meal. Staff S was observed coughing in her hand and wiping her face and using the same hand to feed the resident.

They stated the expectation for staff for hand hygiene is performing hand hygiene when entering or exiting a resident room. Also in between touching or caring for residents.
