V34 reviewed R1, R3, R4 and R5's POC charting completed by the nursing assistants and confirmed that all residents were missing many shifts of ADL charting. V34 stated, this is the [NAME] of my existence, trying to get them to complete the charting. We were doing so well after we were cited (in December 2025) at ADL charting. I went on leave for a bit and the care plan coordinator was supposed to be monitoring all of this (the ADL charting). I don't know what happened, but they (care plan coordinator) no longer work for the facility. It's just so frustrating because, you know the golden rule of nursing: if it's not charted, it's not completed. No further documentation that indicates R1, R3, R4, or R5 was provided assistance with toileting/incontinence care prior to the exit of the survey.
