Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a Registered Nurse (RN) was on duty for at least 8 consecutive hours per day, 7 days a week, as required. Review of the daily staffing schedules and working schedules for March and April 2025 revealed that on two specific days, there was no RN coverage for the full 8 hours; instead, only 6.5 and 6.12 RN hours were documented on those days. During an interview, the Staffing Coordinator confirmed the shortfall, stating that the assigned RN and MDS Coordinator had left early on those dates, resulting in insufficient RN coverage.
