Summary
The facility failed to ensure that each nurse aide received the required minimum of 12 hours of annual in-service training, as evidenced by a review of personnel training records. Specifically, one nurse aide completed only 10 hours and another completed only 6 hours of the mandated training within the past 12 months. This deficiency was confirmed during an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator, who acknowledged the expectation that nurse aides meet the required training hours. The deficiency was identified through a review of training records for two out of five nurse aide employees, with no additional information provided regarding the medical history or condition of any residents affected by this deficiency.
