St. Joseph Rehab: 10 Deficiencies Found - NV

Healthcare Facility
Saint Joseph Transitional Rehabilitation Center
Las Vegas, NV  ·  4/5 stars

A federal complaint inspection on September 12, 2025 found that certified nursing assistants had left multiple dates blank in the electronic charting system where meal assistance levels are recorded. The gaps covered not just the type of help provided — whether a resident needed supervision, setup help, or full one-on-one assistance — but also what percentage of the meal the resident actually consumed.

The facility uses a point-of-care kiosk system where CNAs are expected to log eating assistance after each meal. A CNA interviewed during the inspection confirmed the charting for Resident 111 was incomplete. The CNA explained that staff learn what level of assistance each resident requires through handoff reports from the previous shift, then verify the specifics in the electronic system before providing care. The expectation is documentation every meal, every day. That hadn't happened.

The Director of Nursing confirmed the same finding at 1:58 p.m. the day of the inspection. CNAs were expected to follow the documented assistance level and record it every meal, the DON said. For Resident 111, the eating documentation, including meal percentage, was incomplete.

The inspection was triggered by a complaint. The violation was cited at a level of minimal harm or potential for actual harm, affecting few residents.

What the missing records don't show is how Resident 111 actually ate on the days nobody wrote anything down.
