Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
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 interview and record review the facility failed to provide adequate staff to meet the care needs of
the residents. This has the potential to affect all 34 residents residing at the facility.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings Include:
The Resident Census and Conditions of Residents dated 7/31/23 documents there are 34 residents
residing at the facility. This same form documents 17 residents require assist of one or two staff for bathing
and 17 residents are dependent on staff for bathing, 34 residents require assist of one or two staff for
dressing, 33 residents require assist of one or two staff and one resident is dependent on staff for
transferring, 34 residents require assist of one or two staff for toileting, and 33 residents require assist of
one or two staff for eating, with one resident documented as dependent on staff for eating.
The Midnight Census reports provided to this surveyor on 8/7/23 by V1 (Administrator) document, three
residents (R1, R13, R26) require a mechanical lift to transfer and all 34 residents residing at the facility are
incontinent and require assist of staff for showers.
The facility CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) and hall monitor schedule dated July 2023 documents the

On 8/2/23 at 1:33 PM, V15 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA) stated they don't always have enough staff to
provide residents with the care they need. V15 stated on days they are fully staffed the residents get the
care they need. V15 stated the facility administration said fully staffed is three CNA's.
On 8/2/23 at 9:40 AM, V8 (CNA) stated sometimes she didn't know if she was going to have help while

I don't think so. When asked what care was not able to be provided, V8 stated, incontinence care every two
hours. V8 stated they have four people who require a mechanical lift for transfers. When asked if she has
ever worked as the only CNA on a shift, V8 stated she had. V8 stated she tried to do her best and get to
everyone when that happened. When asked if it was safe working with just one or two CNA's, V8 stated,
No. V8 stated if they have to assist someone who requires a two person assist then there is no one to
answer the call lights and there are residents who wander out the doors and they aren't able to monitor
them to ensure they don't leave. V8 stated the alarm system doesn't always work the way it should. When
asked if they have had residents wander out of the building, V8 stated, Yes, R17.
On 8/2/23 at 10:40 AM, V4 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated they were short staffed all the time. V4
stated on 7/24/23 there was only her and one CNA working on day shift (6 AM- 6 PM). V4 stated on 7/23/23
there was only one CNA working but she came in and worked as a CNA for them. V4 stated on 7/31/23 she
had two CNA's, but one only worked until noon, someone came in and covered until 3 but she worked for 3
1/2 hours on 7/31/23 with only one CNA. When asked what care doesn't get provided when they are short
staffed, V4 stated, showers, bed checks, ADL's (activities of daily living). V4 stated, They just aren't getting
the proper care.
On 8/2/23 at 1:09 PM, V14 (LPN) stated staffing was hit or miss. V14 stated some shifts are staffed really
well and then the next day they may have a couple of call ins. V14 stated she had worked with just one
CNA before. When asked if everyone was provided with necessary care, V14 stated they were but it was
not as much as she would have preferred. When asked if residents were given showers, V14 stated
showers weren't done on that shift.
On 8/3/2023 at 4:05 PM, V17 (CNA) stated he had worked with a hall monitor and a nurse before. V17
stated when that happens, they do the best they can. When asked what care doesn't get provided if he is
working with a nurse and a hall monitor, V17 stated, I can't do the bed checks like I should. V17 stated he
tries to do a minimum of three bed checks but when he is working with just a hall monitor and nurse, he
does good to do two bed checks. The schedule documents V17 works 12 hour shifts.
On 8/2/23 at 1:56 PM, when asked if they had enough staff to meet the needs of the residents, V2 (Director
of Nurses/DON) stated she was new to long term care (LTC). V2 stated she started on 1/30/23. V2 stated
some days they have enough staff and some days it is a struggle. This surveyor reviewed with V2 there
were days they only had one CNA working and V2 stated, Yes. When asked if they were able to provide
care and keep the residents safe, V2 stated, I am not sure how to answer that question. V2 stated, I am
new, and I have been told that is the way it always is in LTC and so we make do.
On 8/2/23 at 3:35 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated they have enough staff to meet the needs of the residents.
When asked if two staff (one licensed and one certified) could meet the needs of the residents, V1 stated,
Well, I try not to have two staff working. V1 stated she always has a hall monitor working if they only have
one CNA working. This surveyor reviewed with V1 the interviews with staff saying they worked with just one
CNA, V1 stated, Well, that is not what I want. When asked if one nurse and one CNA working would be able
to meet the needs of the residents, V1 stated, it would depend on the residents in the building, the time of
day, and what was needed for the residents.
