Ricardo stated in services training is based upon needs and occurring weekly, Ricardo stated last week three trainings were completed and Office Manager replicates Ricardo’s training on Sundays for weekend staff. Office Manager created a list of trainings, but the list is modified to included other trainings as needed by the facility, for example elopment training last week. Donning and Doffing training is scheduled for today, it was last completed in the beginning of January. Trainings are supplemented during stand-up meetings.

Aprons are washed two to three times weekly and stored in the laundry area. Ricardo requested all staff to wear an apron. LPA provided TA to wash daily and have extra supply for staff to wear if they become soiled.
Ricardo stated if “Persons Under Investigation” the designated staff person would be two of three caregivers based upon their performance, how they care for residents, their donning and doffing skills, and his assessment they are capable of doing no harm to staff or residents by following all Mitigation Plan procedures.
