32 | There were no shower refusal documents for R1 during this time period. R1 stated that they would refuse the shower if it was after breakfast time because they wanted it later in the morning, however there was no documentation of refusal during this time period. R1 stated their needs were met overall. Staff notes indicated that brief changes were completed for R1 and documented during this time period. S5 was the staff assigned to 5 of the 10 showers reviewed during this time period and stated that no showers were missed to their recollection. Residents R2 though R5 stated that they did not have an issue with showers facilitated by the facility during this time, however they did wait longer durations for care service to get showers and other needs met due to COVID staff call-offs during this time. During the months of March and April 2022, the facility was in a COVID positive status, which resulted IN staff call-offs, this resulted in longer call times for assistance and showers, however there was not enough evidence through documentation, and interviews to support showers were not given or offered or that meets were not met. Therefore, there is not enough evidence at this time to support the allegation of, “Facility did not meet resident’s needs due to insufficient staffing.” and is therefore unsubstantiated at this time.
As to the allegation of “Facility did not meet resident’s dietary needs.” It was alleged that resident was given meal tray service, but staff put it out of reach of the resident, so the resident could not eat. LPA reviewed the staff schedule and Resident 1 (R1) needs. It was discovered through documentation and interviews that R1 was non-ambulatory. Interview with R1 indicated that on the day of question specific to this allegation (04/17/2022), the dinner tray was placed to far from R1. R1 stated that they used the call button and staff was able to bring the tray, then stated that, “it didn’t bother me.” and was able to eat the meal. Pertaining to the food services, Residents 2-5 did not have any comment of the food service being not meeting their dietary needs. Based on interviews, there is not enough evidence at this time to support the allegation of, “Facility did not meet the resident’s dietary needs” and is unsubstantiated at this time.
