Administrator showed LPA that the alert then shows up on a computer in the facilities charting room. LPA noted there were no sounds observed. (2) two of (2) two residents interviewed stated that when they were in need of assistance it took over an hour for staff to come too their need. Administrator stated that once it was known that the pagers were all missing or inoperable, a staff member was temporarily assigned to sit in the charting room to monitor the computer were alerts are recorded.
