During interview with 1 resident regarding how their needs were not being met at the facility (R4), LPA asked R4 whether or not facility staff was quick to respond to their needs. R4 indicated that staff never arrives when he/she calls for them. An additional resident, R3, stated while initially stating that their needs are met by the facility, stated that it often takes staff an hour or longer to arrive when he/she presses his/her pendant. Additional resident that stated that they receive one shower or sponge bath a week and were prefer to receive more.

LPA interviewed 11 staff members. Of the staff members interviewed 11 out of 11 stated that they believed that the facility was understaffed. When asked about whether or not they believed they were able to meet all the residents needs during the course of their shift. 11 out of 11 staff indicated that they were able to complete all of their tasks, however 8 out of 11 stated that they had felt that other shifts were unable to complete all of their necessary tasks in a given day. Review of staff scheduling indicated multiple days where there was only 1 caregiver assigned for both evening and night shift.

Facility had completed individual program plans and appraisal/needs and services plan to address individual residents’ needs and behavior. Based on record review, R3’s most recent appraisal/needs and services plan indicated that R3 was being monitored continuously and had been receiving additional care from an outside agency regularly. ANS showed that the facility addressed R3’s physical and mental condition by monitoring R3’s diet, physical appearance, activity, behavior, etc. Review of wound care notes indicated that R3 has been discovered in soiled sheets and clothing numerous times by home health nurses.

The Department has conducted an investigation of the above allegations. Based on LPAs’ observations, records reviewed, and interviews conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, the Department found the above allegations to be SUBSTANTIATED. Deficiencies are being cited. See LIC 9099-D.

Exit interview conducted with Administrator Erin Wiley. A copy of this report, along with the facility's appeals rights were provided.
