Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to follow its staffing policy by not having four
nurses working on the overnight shift on 12/31/24. There was no nurse present in this facility from 2:00AM
until 6:04AM on 1/1/25. This failure resulted in 4 residents (R8, R9, R10, and R16) not receiving 6:00AM
scheduled medications until more than one hour later or not at all; 5 diabetic residents (R7, R11, R13, R14,
and R15) not having 6:00AM blood sugar level checked, and insulin administered; none of the residents
received scheduled assessments and/or vital sign monitoring on the night shift. This failure has the potential
to affect all 155 residents residing in this facility.
Findings include:
On 01.15.2025 the facaility roster indicated there were 155 residents residing in the facility.
On 1/15/25 at 1:30PM, V4 LPN (licensed practical nurse) stated that she worked day shift on 1/1/25 on C

assigned residents' MARs from night shift. V4 stated that she needed to document reason why medications
and assessments were overdue so that the computer program would allow her to document in the MAR for
day shift. V4 stated that is the reason she noted done on previous shift for each overdue medication and
assessment.
1/15/25 at 3:05PM, V6 LPN (licensed practical nurse) stated that V6 works the evening shift at this facility.
V6 stated that on 12/31/24 V6 was asked to stay until 2:00AM. V6 stated that from 11:00PM until 2:00AM,
V6 did not document in any resident's chart, V6 just walked from unit to unit rounding on residents. V6

On 1/16/25 at 11:50AM, V8 RN (registered nurse) on 1/1/25, there was no nurse in present in the facility
when she came in to work at 7:00AM. V8 stated that she had to document a reason for the overdue
medications and assessments, so that she could document in the MAR for her shift. V8 stated that the
computer system does not allow the nurse to document medication administration and assessments in
MAR until the overdue items from the previous shift are addressed.
On 1/17/25 at 9:50AM, V15 LPN stated that worked 12/31/24 evening shift. V15 stated that there was a
nurse in the building when she left.
