> Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure Nurse Staffing information was posted on Saturday, 2/29/20, when the survey team entered the building. This was observed on 2/29/20 and had the potential to affect all 92 residents residing in the facility, as well as family and visitors in the facility. Findings include: On 2/29/20 at 1:00 p.m., the survey team entered the facility and observed the Nurse Staffing information posted; the posting was dated for the previous day, 2/28/20, instead of for the current date and shift. On 3/03/20 at 3:17 p.m., Employee Identifier (EI) # 6, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), was interviewed. EI # 6 was asked who was responsible for ensuring Nurse Staffing information was posted daily on the weekends. EI # 6 said the first hall nurse was responsible. EI # 6 further stated she had been the nurse working on the 1st hall on 2/29/20. When asked if she had posted the Nurse Staffing information that day, EI # 6 said no, she forgot. EI # 6 said she should have posted the staffing information for 2/29/20 that morning. EI # 6 was asked the purpose of posting the Nurse Staffing information daily in the facility. EI # 6 said it should be posted because it shows the public how many people are working, shows the number of employees in the building, as well as the number of residents. |
