Saint Joseph Rehab: Daily Care Failures - NV

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

The aide explained the system to inspectors in straightforward terms: at the start of each shift, staff learned what level of help each resident needed at meals through a handoff report from the previous shift. The specifics, whether a resident needed supervision, setup help only, or one-on-one assistance through the entire meal, were recorded in an electronic charting system at a kiosk on the unit. Aides were expected to document what they provided at every meal, every day.

For R111, that didn't happen. The aide told inspectors the ADL charting for eating was incomplete because some dates were simply left blank. Meal percentage, the record of how much a resident actually ate, was missing too.

The Director of Nursing did not dispute it. She confirmed that CNAs were expected to document the level of eating assistance provided at each meal and that R111's records fell short of that standard.

The inspection was triggered by a complaint, filed under complaint number 2282565. Inspectors cited the deficiency at a level of minimal harm or potential for actual harm, affecting a small number of residents.

What the blank fields don't show is whether R111 received the right level of help at those meals, or any help at all. The documentation that would answer that question is gone.
