Summary

The facility failed to meet the required minimum of 3.2 hours of direct resident care per patient day (PPD) for nine days between December 10 and December 19, 2024. A review of the facility's staffing data revealed that on these days, the PPD ranged from 2.76 to 3.09, all below the mandated threshold. This deficiency was identified through an analysis of staffing records and was communicated to the Nursing Home Administrator during a telephone interview on January 6, 2025.

No grievance or residents care were affected. Other dates were reviewed to see the HPPD. Residents care was not affected. Staffing coordinator to be re-educated on need for an HPPD at 3.2 or above. Random weekly audits will be done by the NHA to ensure HPPD is correct. Weekly times 4. Results will be reviewed by QAPI to see if further action is needed.
