Interviews determined the staff who mixed up R1 and R2 was from a caregiver agency. Staff interviewed stated sometimes agency staff are not reminded to look in resident binders to confirm who the resident is. LPA reviewed residents’ Service Plan, which stated Resident 1 (R1) requires two-person total assistance for transferring, dressing, and toileting. Staff interviewed stated the agency staff failed to follow policy by disregarding the transferring policy of R1. Agency staff toileted, dressed and transferred R1 without assistance and resulted in R1 being returned to wrong room and bed. Staff stated the agency staff worked on their own and did not collaborate with the other facility staff, and had a bad attitude about the incident. Following the incident, facility management decided this agency staff would not work in memory care and later not in the facility at all. Neither staff nor Administrator denied that the incident took place.

Based on the information obtained, the allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time.

Exit interview, deficiencies cited 9099-D, report given, appeal rights given.

On the allegation: Facility does not have adequate staff to meet the needs of residents. It was alleged the facility did not have enough staff, which led to the mix up of R1 and R2.

Staff interviewed stated 2 caregivers on duty was not enough due to the high needs of residents. Staff stated it would be helpful if there was a third caregiver, especially for when staff go on break. Staff stated sometimes they try to call the nurse for assistance but they are not always available. Staff interviewed stated they were supposed to have 3 caregivers but allegedly had only 2 due to budget cuts. Staff stated with only 2 staff working, they have to do everything in a hurry. Staff stated sometimes residents do not get showers on the day they were scheduled for, but they try again on the next shift.

Administrator stated they have 2 caregivers and one med tech. Administrator stated they have another med tech in the whole building and a nurse, as well as the memory care director and activities director.
