25 | On 6/21/23 at 10:10 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chavez conducted an unannounced Case Management- Legal/Non-Compliance visit to monitor the licensee’s completion of the agreed-upon action items set forth in the Non-compliance Plan dated 3/30/23. LPA met with Marlene Nelson, Director of Regulatory Compliance (Director), and explained the reason for the meeting.
LPA focused today’s visit on the staffing plan dated 4/1/23. LPA interviewed the Director, residents, and staff, and reviewed documents. Interviews with staff reveal that “staffing has been better in the last couple of months,” staff say they have sufficient coverage and on days when staff call out, current staff are able to cover their shifts. Staff say that there has been a bit of turnover in the past month and that it can get tough sometimes, but overall it’s manageable. Staff say that staffing agencies are used only for future absences, i.e. vacations and leaves of absence. Residents interviewed say they are satisfied with staff responsiveness and staff are friendly.
LPA reviewed Shower Schedules and End of Shift Reports and found inconsistencies in how staff are documenting completed versus non-completed tasks. Director states that staff are trained to document exceptions on the End of Shift Reports, if they are unable to complete tasks and when there are changes to resident conditions. LPA observed End of Shift Reports indicating tasks completed and tasks not completed, some with reasons, others without reasons. Due to the lack of consistency, licensee will complete additional training with Wellness staff on documentation and processes. Licensee will send LPA a copy of the training sign-in sheets by 6/28/23.
