artificial left knee, dementia, hypertension, unsteady on feet, and muscle weakness. The resident was
discharged to another nursing facility on 08/14/24.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) annual assessment, dated 06/18/24, revealed the resident was
moderately impaired for daily decision making.

daughter) stated I can't ever get ahold of anyone at this place. Family has been packing residents' things
and removing them to the car. Release of responsibility for discharge against medical advice signed by

requested paperwork.

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 observation, record review, review of the daily census, review of staff postings and staff
schedules and review of the facility assessment, the facility failed to ensure adequate staffing levels to meet
resident needs. This had the potential to affect all 33 residents residing in the building.
Findings included:
Observation and interview on 08/26/24 at 8:07 A.M. revealed there was only one State Tested Nursing
Assistant (STNA) #53 on the Memory Lane secure unit to provide care for ten (10) residents. The STNA
verified she was the only staff member on the unit due to the nurse administering medication on the
connected assisted living (AL) (located on the first floor and the memory care unit is located on the second
floor). STNA #53 revealed she usually worked 6:00 A.M. until 6:30 P.M. day shift on the secured unit and
the nurse always went to the AL first around 6:30 A.M. to administer medications, leaving her alone on the
unit to provide morning care (incontinence care and assist residents with activities of daily living), assist
residents out of bed for breakfast, pass breakfast trays, and assist with resident meals. The nurse usually
returns between 8:00 A.M. and 8:45 A.M. The STNA included the nurse must leave the secure unit several
times throughout the day to go to the AL to work but she has a walkie talkie to call for help.
Observation revealed on 08/26/24 from 8:07 A.M. to 8:30 A.M. STNA #53 passed the hall trays and the
breakfast trays for the dining room. There were two residents (#17, and #25) sitting at the table in the dining
room waiting for breakfast joined by a third resident later. At 8:09 A.M. Resident #24 was walking in the hall
with a walker and was verbally prompted to go into the dining room for breakfast. At 8:11 A.M. Resident #8
was standing in her room eating breakfast from a tray that was on a counter in her room. At 8:13 A.M.
Resident #11 was sitting on the side of her bed. Her room smelled like urine. At 8:14 A.M. Resident #23
was in her room sitting on the toilet.
At 8:20 A.M., all of the trays were delivered except for two residents (#4 and #20) due to the residents were
still sleeping. All three residents in the dining room were feeding themselves. Five residents had their
breakfast trays in their rooms.
Interview on 08/26/24 at 8:22 A.M. with STNA #53 revealed Resident #17 and #24 were identified to be a
fall risk. They were two of the three residents eating in the dining room without staff. STNA #53 included
Resident's #4 and #20 were in need of two assist.
Observation and interview on 08/26/24 8:30 A.M. revealed Licensed Practical Nurse #42 returned to the
floor. The LPN confirmed after she receives report in the morning, she goes straight to the AL to administer
medication, leaving the STNA to monitor and assist the residents on the memory care unit, alone.
Interview on 08/26/24 at 9:58 A.M. with STNA #78 in revealed an aide is supposed to go from the first floor
to the second floor when the second floor nurse is on AL. STNA #78 said they do not call down from the
second floor to let them know the nurse went to AL so they work with one aide on the second floor when
the nurse is on AL. It is their busy time on the first floor at 6:30 A.M. getting residents up so they will stay on
the first floor and get residents ready for breakfast.

Assistant Director of Nursing. She included two staff were to be on the secured unit at all times. They are
trying to get a third aide on night shift so upstairs always has two staff when the nurse is on AL.
Interview on 08/26/24 at 3:15 P.M. with the Administrator revealed it has been a challenge to get staff. The
issue with one staff member in the secure unit had not been completely resolved.
Review of the schedule and interview on 08/26/24 at 3:17 P.M. with Housekeeping/Scheduler #41 revealed
there was only one nurse upstairs on 08/25/24 from 6:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M The nurse functioned as the

floor leaving the first floor with one staff.
Interview on 08/27/24 at 10:10 A.M. with STNA #53 revealed STNA #88 came to the second floor around
7:00 A.M. so the secured unit would not only have one staff. STNA #53 said she was the only staff on the
floor for about 30 minutes after the nurse went to AL this morning and the aide came upstairs.
Interview on 08/27/24 at 7:17 P.M. with the Administrator revealed STNA #115 should have floated upstairs
when the nurse went to AL so only one staff would not be on the secured unit. When the aide goes to the
