PM, the DON stated she was not aware of the issues found. She stated staff knew how to use the TELS
system. She stated it was supposed to be linked to their electronic record system, but Information
Technology was having a hard time making that work. There was a link the staff could click and then sign in
to place work orders, but she felt since it was so inconvenient staff were just not reporting anything. She

comfort. Interview on 10/14/25 at 3:12 PM, the Administrator stated staff had been trained on the TELS
system before it went live at the beginning of the month, so there was no reason for them not to report

sanitation reasons. The Administrator was unable to provide a policy that addressed a safe, comfortable,
