They go to the facility once a week, but they are available 24 hours.
They signed the Resident #1's death certificate once they were made aware.
The facility investigated and spoke with the nursing staff, but the facility had no documentation that anyone called them to sign.

Surveyor reviewed the expiration note with the provider, and the Medical Director stated they spoke with the nurse who put the expiration note in the system and the nurse acknowledged that they put the note in but never followed up with a phone call to inform me.
