LPA found that the facility does not have sufficient care staff for coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The facility has one (1) resident (R1) in care with a condition that requires an awake staff to care for the residents. LPA was informed by Staff S2 that the staff does not stay awake at night. The staff sleeps during the night and is on call during the night if the residents need assistance. The facility will be issued a deficiency for not staffing an awake staff at night.

LPA reviewed four (4) residents files for admission agreements, updated physician reports, and needs and services plans.
