the review of training was 7/18/2024-7/18/2025.CNA-X was hired on 12/26/2022 so the review of training was 12/26/23-12/26/2024.CNA-Y was hired on 5/22/2024 so the review of training was 5/22/2024-5/22/2025.CNA-Z was hired on 7/26/2023 so the review of training was 7/26/2024-7/26/2025.CNA-ZZ was hired on 2/6/2024 so the review of training was 2/6/2024-2/6/2025.On 10/28/2025 at 10:37 AM, Surveyor requested from Executive Director (ED)-C and Director of Nursing (DON)-B employee files for review of training and education for CNA-W, CNA-X, CNA-Y, CNA-Z, and CNA-AA. ED-C shared the request with Assistant Administrator (AA)-O. AA-O asked for clarification of what was requested. Surveyor shared with AA-O, ED-C, and DON-B that CNAs need to have documentation of receiving 12 hours of education annually per their hire date. DON-B stated DON-B would look for that information and provide what DON-B could locate.ED-C provided to Surveyor an undated document with employee names and number of hours of training. The document did not denote what type of education or when the education was provided.

Surveyor shared with ED-C the education was based on the month of hire and was a rolling year depending on that date; an example was given if an employee was hired on 2/1/2023 then the training hours and topics that would be reviewed would be from 2/1/2024 to 2/1/2025 since that would be the most recent year based on

the hire date. ED-C acknowledged understanding of what was requested.DON-B provided to Surveyor multiple sign-in sheets attached to in-service trainings.

Surveyor asked DON-B if CNA-W, CNA-X, CNA-Y, CNA-Z, and CNA-AA had documentation of what trainings had been received and when.

DON-B stated no, they did not keep individual records. Surveyor asked DON-B how DON-B knew if each employee had the training that was required annually. DON-B stated DON-B would have to look at each in-service sign-in sheet to see if the employee had attended.On 10/28/2025 at 3:30 PM, Surveyor shared with ED-C, DON-B and AA-O the concern CNA-W, CNA-X, CNA-Y, CNA-Z, and CNA-AA did not have the documentation of completing required training in the timeframe based on the hire date of the employee.

DON-B agreed there was not a system in place to monitor the training completed or required for employees.On 10/29/2025 at 12:04 PM via email, ED-C provided a spreadsheet with staff education topics, dates provided, and hours per topic. The spreadsheet had an initial date of 10/9/2024 and a final date of 10/10/2025. The spreadsheet did not incorporate the rolling 12 months from the CNA dates of hire to show training was completed during the individual timeframes.
