On 9/8/25, at 9:34am, Surveyor followed up with NHA-A regarding the process when an allegation comes in over a weekend or Holiday. NHA-A stated a normal allegation would be reported to the nurse who then notifies the nurse manager.

The nurse manager then reports concerns to the NHA-A.

Surveyor asked if an email was sent on 8/31/25, why the delay in reporting until 9/2/25. NHA-A responded that they did not receive the email until Tuesday due to the holiday and that is when they responded and filed the self report.

Surveyor asked if anyone else scans emails for time sensitive emails and was told no one else does. If it had been a time sensitive issue NHA-A stated they should have called a manager on duty.

Surveyor noted during interview with NHA-A it was shared that R2 and the Complainant have a preference for direct communication with NHA-A. NHA-A informed Surveyor that an assistant NHA has been hired and that NHA-A tried to have this person be the contact, but that did not work out, so NHA-A has remained the primary contact for R2. NHA-A even puts it on the calendar to attend the quarterly care conferences to keep up communication with R2. On 9/8/25, at 10:50am, Surveyor informed NHA-A of the concern that there needs to be a process in place for allegations that come in over the weekend or holiday to be addressed timely and reported within the designated time frames. pNo additional information was provided as to why R2's allegation of mistreatment and neglect was delayed in being reported to the State Agency.
