Staff members are expected to maintain compliance with safe handling/transfer practices. Resident lifting and transferring will be performed according to resident's individual plan of care. 4) Resident R8 is a resident that requires one-to-one (1:1) around-the-clock supervision (sitter). Review of Resident R8's Provider Orders revealed the following order since 06/18/2025, 1:1 supervision due to wandering and to meet resident's needs until alternate placement can be found.

On 11/18/25 at 01:30 PM, during an interview with Registered Nurse (RN) 6, discovered that the 1:1 sitter for Resident R8 had not shown up yet. RN6 stated that the staff member previously assigned to Resident R8 had finished their shift at 12:30 PM. Verified through observation that there was no 1:1 sitter in Resident R8's room. RN6 stated that Resident R8 required a sitter due to elopement risk. 5) On 11/17/25 at 06:14 AM, observed on the PK2 floor that there were two licensed nurses, and three CNAs assigned. Concurrent interview with RN7 confirmed a census of 49 residents that RN7 stated usually meant at least 4 CNAs would be assigned. RN7 agreed that 3 CNAs were not enough to adequately meet

the needs of the residents in a timely manner.

On 11/17/25 at 11:37 AM, an interview was done with CNA14 on PW2. CNA14 confirmed a census of 45 residents and stated that usually there would be 6 CNAs [assigned] for day shift and 5 CNAs [assigned] for evening [shift] and night [shift]. CNA14 reported that since 11/02/25, sometimes between 12:00 PM and 06:00 PM, there was only 1 or 2 CNAs scheduled.

On 11/17/25 at 12:15 PM, observed on LW1 that there was 1 CNA (CNA15) assigned to relieve the 2 CNAs getting off at 12:30 PM. Confirmed with CNA15 and RN8 that with a census of 18 residents, 1 CNA would be very difficult to meet all of their needs in a timely manner.

On 11/18/25 at 04:07 PM on PW2, during an interview with RN9, confirmed that as of 03:30 PM, she was

the only nurse on the floor assigned with 3 CNAs for a census of 45 residents. RN9 stated it is very difficult to work so short. RN9 added that she tries to help the CNAs but how can I when I have to also pass meds, document, and make sure residents are safe?

On 11/19/25 at 09:48 AM, review of the staff schedule for Friday 11/14/25 noted that from 03:30 PM to 06:00 PM on PK2, there was 1 CNA working on the floor of 49 residents and no 1:1 sitter assigned to Resident R8.

Confirmed by interview with the Scheduler (S1) that there was 1 CNA at that time. S1 agreed that the goal is to ensure more than 1 CNA is working on any of the floors.

On 11/19/25 at 11:30 PM, an interview was done with the Director of Nursing (DON), Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), and the Chief Nursing Officer (CNO). During a concurrent review of the Letter of Understanding re [regarding] Work Load from the 2023-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement, CNO, DON, and ADON confirmed that for the PW and PK floors, the goal is to ensure there are a minimum of 4 CNAs assigned at any given time, and for the LW floors, a minimum of 2 CNAs.

On 11/19/25 at 12:50 PM, an interview was done with S1. During a concurrent review of the 11/13/25 staff schedule, S1 confirmed that there was 1 CNA on PK2 from 03:30 PM to 04:30 PM when she was joined by 1 other CNA (besides the 1:1 sitter). S1 also confirmed that there was 1 CNA on LWG that day from 03:30 PM to 06:00 PM. S1 agreed that when she makes the schedule, her goal is to ensure there is more CNA staff than that.

Post nurse staffing information every day.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure its nurse staffing information was posted in a prominent place readily accessible to all residents. In addition, the facility failed to ensure

the staff information that was posted met the data requirements, specifically, facility name, resident census, and the total number and actual hours worked by licensed and unlicensed staff. Findings include:On 11/17/25 at 11:53 AM, observations made on the ground floor of the main building noted a staff assignment posting on the table at the main entrance, and a copy posted near the time clock. Review of the staff posting noted it did not include the facility name, resident census, or the total number and actual hours worked by licensed and unlicensed staff. A tour of the facility later that day noted the staff assignment (still lacking the aforementioned data) was also posted by the time clocks on the first floor of the main building, and the first floor of 1 of 2 other buildings. The same observations were made during tours of the facility on 11/18/25 and 11/19/25.On 11/19/25 at 10:30 AM, an interview was done with the Administrator, the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), and the Chief Nursing Officer (CNO). When asked about the staff posting, the Administrator explained that the Scheduler is responsible to post the information at the start of every shift and confirmed that it is posted at the main entrance and by the time clocks. The ADON listed the location of the time clocks on the property (1 on the ground floor of the main building, and 2 on resident units) and confirmed that there were no other time clocks. When asked how the staff posting would be accessible to residents that cannot or do not leave the 5 other units on property where it is not posted, the CNO nodded and acknowledged that it is not currently posted in a prominent area accessible to those residents. On 11/19/25 at 10:50 AM, during a concurrent review of the staff posting, the Administrator agreed that it did not contain all the components to meet the requirements of a staff posting.Review of the facility's policy and procedure on Nurse Staffing Posting Information, last reviewed on 04/28/25, revealed

the following: This facility's policy is to make nurse staffing information readily available in a readable format to residents, staff, and visitors at all times.
