underneath. She stated all staff were responsible for ensuring his nails were clean and trimmed but the
night shift aides were responsible for giving him a bath and were supposed to trim his nails. She stated he
could scratch himself and get an infection from the dirty nails.
In an interview on 03/07/2024 at 9:05 AM the ADON stated she had worked at the facility since October
2021. She stated the facility had recently instituted a procedure where each Nurse Manager took
responsibility for a hall and the Staff Development Nurse had the 400 Hall. She stated they oversaw
everything on their assigned hall including the resident's appearance, hair, nails, and showers. She stated
she and the Nurse Managers met with the DON, the Administrator and wound care nurse weekly to discuss
issues regarding the residents. She stated her expectation was that the resident could refuse personal
hygiene, however, they were offered showers and nail care two to three times a week per their preference.
She further stated the potential risk to the resident of not receiving nail care was they could scratch
themselves and the scratch could get infected. She stated they could get bacteria in their mouth from eating
with dirty fingernails.
In an interview on 03/07/2024 at 9:14 AM, the Staff Development Nurse stated she had worked for the
company five years in June 2023. She stated the Nurse Managers recently decided to split the halls and
check rooms for any maintenance issues, check residents for grooming, hair, nails, and oral care. She
stated they would follow-up if a resident refused personal hygiene and there was no daily checklist. She
stated they checked the residents three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for personal
hygiene. She further stated the evening CNAs did bathing and showers. She stated if a resident had long
nails there could be skin concerns as they could scratch themselves and cause an infection. She stated it
was everyone's responsibility to look at the residents to ensure they were groomed properly.
In an interview on 03/07/2024 at 9:48 AM, LVN E stated she had worked at the facility for three years and
worked on the 100 and 400 halls. She stated she tried to keep up with the residents' nails and she had
trimmed Resident #59's nails but he would get angry and curse. She stated they left him alone and did not
like to get him upset as he hollered and called for mother dearest. She stated he could be really loud. She
stated the risk to the resident was he could scratch himself and he had done that before and hurt his palms.
She stated she was sure he could get an infection.
In an interview on 03/07/2024 at 11:24 AM, the DON stated her expectations were that residents should
have weekly skin assessments and then be checked by the nurse managers to catch anything that falls
between the cracks. She stated she had communicated her expectations to staff that nails should be
trimmed and cleaned. She stated if a resident refused nail care, staff should have documented the refusal
and tried again. She stated the potential risk to a resident was they could scratch themselves and get an
infection or cause injuries to other people.
In an interview on 03/07/2024 at 11:44 AM, the Administrator stated his expectation was that residents
would have their nails trimmed and cleaned on a consistent basis. He stated if their nails were untrimmed
and unclean, the resident could get scratch themselves, get skin tears, and potentially get an infection or
scratch someone else. He stated he would expect CNAs to check the residents' nails, then the treatment
nurse and the nurse managers.
Record review of the facility' Policy and Procedure titled Activities of Daily Living and dated 05/30/2023
