F 0558 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some The Facility Resident Council Minutes, 8/2/23, document that five of ten Residents in attendance are concerned that call lights are taking forty minutes to be answered on all shifts. The Facility Resident Council Minutes, 9/6/23, document that nine of eleven Residents in attendance are concerned that call lights are still taking forty minutes to an hour to be answered on Third Shift and they are usually sitting behind the nurse's station on their phone. On 10/1/23 at 10:37 am, R1 stated, They are a little slow with the call lights. It usually takes them at least twenty to thirty minutes and Second Shift seems to be the worst. On 10/1/23 at 8:31 am, R2 stated, I have to wait a long time for my call light to be answered, sometimes it takes up to an hour and a half, to two hours. They have to reposition me in bed. I told (V1/Administrator) and (V1) told me that they never have call light problems. (V1) was supposed to look into the problems, but (V1) has never gotten back to me. It is funny that they do answer them faster and treat me better when my daughter is here though. On 10/1/23 at 8:10 am, R3 stated, They do not have enough staff, it usually takes them, at best, about twenty minutes to answer my call light, unless they are really busy, then it takes them way longer. It seems like it takes longer at the change of shift, so I just try and not put my call light on at that time. On 10/1/23 at 12:40 pm, R4 stated, The longest I have had to wait recently for my call light to be answered is about thirty minutes. The shift changes in the afternoon and at night are the worst. On 10/1/23 at 8:20 am, R5 stated, I know that they try their best with the call lights, but sometimes it can take them quite a bit of time to get here. On 10/1/23 at 12:02 pm, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, We know that we have issues with the call lights. (V7/Social Service Director) and I have been doing audits. I will continue to educate my staff, because these complaints are way too long for them to wait for a call light to be answered. On 10/1/23 at 11:50 am, V1 (Administrator) stated, We know that the call lights are an on-going issue and we continue to try and fix them. We will see what we can do making them better. On 10/4/23 at 10:17 am, V1 (Administrator) stated, they tell us that call lights are a concern in the Resident Council meetings, but I never really find out much information other than that there are concerns. I do not know specifics like what shift or things like that. FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 145021 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 2
