Summary
Nurses and nurse aides did not demonstrate the necessary competencies to provide care that maximizes each resident's well-being. The deficiency was identified based on observations and findings that staff lacked appropriate skills or knowledge required to meet the individualized needs of residents. This failure resulted in care that did not support the highest practicable level of physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being for residents. The report specifically notes that the staff's competencies were insufficient to ensure that all residents received care tailored to their needs, as required by regulatory standards.
