In addition, care plans 12/15/21 states “requires stand by assistance with s/set up and performance of grooming tasks (28 points); 3 to 4x/week showers (10 points); requires stand by assistance with dressing and undressing 2x/day (31 points)” and care plan 6/13/2022 states “requires stand by assistance with s/set up and performance of grooming tasks (28 points); 1 to 2x/week showers (13 points); requires hands on assistance with dressing and undressing 2x/day (37 points). Department has learned that picture taken by POA on July 19, 2022 shows resident R1 with an extremely red groin rash and stated that resident R1 was being found with same clothes when visiting consecutive days. Facility staff stated, “that resident was refusing showers” and has no shower or changing record logs. In regard to staff not assisting resident with hygiene needs, at this time Department can’t prove or disprove that it has occurred.
In regard to, “Facility staff did not ensure resident's bathroom was sanitary.” Department has learned that facility has the following number of staff in memory care per shift AM 4 care staff & 1 med tech, PM 4 care staff & 1 med tech, and NOC 2 care staff & 1 med tech. According with MC Director Juan Ferrel interview “There is a person designated for housekeeping in Memory Care” which are not caregivers. “Care staff do the bed, light cleaning, and pick up clothes on the floor, make sure that bathrooms are clean. If bathrooms are not clean, they contact housekeeping. Housekeeping change sheets on beds onn the housekeeping days assigned for the room. In the case of an accident care staff will change sheets and placed them to wash. Care staff still does the laundry for residents.” During visit to facility on 8/3/2022, LPA toured the facility and randomly observed bedrooms/bathrooms and found facility clean. There is not sufficient evidence for the Department to prove or disprove that residents bathrooms were not sanitary.
